I am in Bullhead City and Kingman occasionally on business. Are there any full size Diamonds or Brunswicks in either town?

If it's not handicapped, the 9's & 8's will still be ahead of the game. Where are John and Mitch going to pick up a coupla bucks for the weekend now?
That is so blatantly designed to eliminate M & J that it sort of sucks. I don't understand their marketing strategy. I am totally confused. I don't want to play heads up with 8's & 9's in tourneys on a regular basis any more that I want to play 10's. The only thing that might be attractive is that it is a race to one. You might get lucky and beat one or two but how do you plow through 5 or 6 of those meat eaters? Especially with a $7 entry fee. All in all, the Deli tourney sucks. They only have 2 tables
so the race is kept to one. If they are trying to attract more players how long will it take? This seems to have been driven by the regulars at the bar complaining. It still confuses me. It's a nice bar . I like it there. But I can't waste Saturday nights on that tourney just for ego. Rant, rant and on and on I go. Sorry.:shrug:

It is what it is. I heard they are expanding and adding a couple tables or something along those lines. I wont play there, so it doesn't matter to me. Those tables are too rough. The nugget tourny is a pretty good one you should try out (If you haven't already). Me and under 8 ball race to 1. Gets a good turnout. Andrew rocha runs it. Its the thursday leg of the deli crews tour. That reminds me, I havent taxed those suckers in a while LOL.

There used to be a couple of players from those areas that would come down and play in the Arizona Desert Classic Tour a couple of years back. I haven't seen them around in a while though. But from what I had heard, there was not much up there in terms of equipment... mostly bar box league play with the occasional 9 footers. I'm not sure of what is up there these days however.

I saw a couple of Valley bar boxes in the Kingman bowling alley. I think that's going to be about it.

I'll have to stick to drinking but I don't think there's even a good place to drink in Kingman. When I'm in Bullhead City I stay across the river in Laughlin. No drinking problem there.

Make it simple Jerry, as Last Saturday of the Month, each and every Month is Preacher-Ronn's-1-Pocket Tournament at Kolby's Corner pockets in Tempe. Entry is $35.00, and if you are not a 10, or 10-1 you don't stand a chance of winning your entree fee back. Because of World Class One Pocket players most months.;)

Especially if you are a cheap, scared SOB, and can't play to begin with.

Don't listen to CooCoo...plenty of lesser rated players have won-cashed playing in that tourny.

OK Mr. Know It All, post a list "lesser rated players have won-cashed playing in that tourny", dates, player real name, place they finished, amount won, and last AZ RATING.

BTW I have Cactus in my Back Yard, not a Money Tree with FREE MONEY to throw away.

Wish I had a money tree, maybe you could send me a seedling off your money tree, I promise to care for the seedling well......LOL......... that would grow in the Maricopa County Desert....LOL

They do have some tables and players in Kingman. I looked on the LINKS Page of AZPoolScene.com and remembered I had put this link on awhile back: http://www.kingmanpoolplayers.com/

Maybe you can contact them or see the list of places to play off their site.

Good Luck!

UGH!!

It's not the Last Saturday of Every Month. Therefore, there is a Schedule that is published. And I put the link instead of the actual schedule, because it is updated if any changes happen.

Also, not everyone plays the game to win tournaments. It's only $35 to play with World Class Players, WOW! I don't even play the game, but I'd be willing to give it a try if my schedule allows it!

New Billiards sports bar in Tempe

By the way all...

A new Billiards sports bar opened in Tempe right at the end of the year.

Lucky Break Billiards Bar and Grill opens in Tempe

I dont know their expectations yet for leagues, tournaments, etc... since I dont live in the East Valley anymore, but will update this thread when I get a chance to stop by.

That is because you have a Big Job making tons of GREEN, I do not have a big job no more. When I did work it was self employment, where I was the guy paying Retirement, Medical, Dental, 16.8% Social Security, and other stuff that is call Pride of Ownership.

Ben Sutherland and I will be playing on Sunday 2pm at Skip & Jans in an all-around challenge match. I picked one pocket and he picks bar table 9 ball to start off with, should be an interesting match as we are both favorites in our chosen games.

TAR matches.

First, Who are your guys pick for svb vs busty? I'm thinking busty. He can break em almost as good as shane and his run out power edges him out.

Also, what are some matches you want to see? Everyone is always svb vs the world or matches that arent likely (archer). Here are some I want to see.


Justin Bergman vs Chip Compton and Mitch Ellerman vs Joey gray. If team OKC splits sets scotch doubles for it all.

Scott Frost and Brandon Shuff all around. One pocket, Big Table 10 ball, Banks or some Good old fashioned Bar table 9/10 ball to close it out.

Donny mills vs Jesse bowman on a 7 footer ryo 9 ball.

And the grand daddy of them all Efren vs Parica all around.
Sigel and Earl commentating with JCIN and a taser to moderate the commentators lol.

What you guys want to see?

Skip & Jans? That's over next to the New Mexico border ain't it? I'd like to go but I can't afford the airfare. Does Greyhound go out that way? If I was sure the roads were paved I'd drive over but I'd have to get an oil change and check my tires first. If it can't be streamed why not tape it. I'd like to see how Fast Lenny's playing now. I favor no one but I hope it's tough
match for both. That's the kind you remember.
