Big-time pool dispute plays out in Solano courtroom

Saver put $500. in your pocket ...

I have no problem with savers. All they do is re-adjust the payouts. You still try your best to win for the bigger payoff.

Once in a tournament I was going to play the hot set match against Danny Madina when he asked me if I wanted to do a $500 saver. I agreed and lost that match. That saver for some reason caused me to lose my intensity and I didn't play like I had been playing. I then lost the next match to Alex P. I played well against him but still lost. To this day I believe it was that saver that kept me from winning against Danny.

How would you like to give Danny the $500. back and loose again? Danny is a very strong player when he is on his game. By the way, do you remember your game score with Danny, or your final score with Alex?

I remember when someone took Danny Madina's pool cue from the sands during a tournament. I think it was 1999 or 2000, I was impressed how well he played. Someone stealing my cue would of angered me to the point that it would of hurt my game.

Sorry for the off topic comment.

As of players not getting paid. I think (All) the players should be payed out at the end of every tournament.....................................................
the checks are in the mail is BS. And I see no reason why any player needs to wait to be paid.
Ps my hat is off to all the players for having the guts to give it there best shot........

I agree. If he would have split the money among the other winner his story would be more believable.
