Bonus Ball..
I may be from
Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada and I may be a player that actually understands this great
NEW game, but to all the American people that are saying they didn't purchase the U.S. Open PPV I do not totally disagree with you...You were not told this would be shown. You should have been.
But, in defence of the World Wide Sport of Billiards they were invited to the U.S. Open by Barry Behrman to present this
EXCITING new game. There was no better way to present this exciting game to a very large audience....
Also, you would not have players with the esteem and knowledge of Johnny Archer, Earl Strickland, Darren Appleton and Jimmy Wych involved if this was not a good game.
See the following link, it may help explain the game:

The U.S. poolplayers are mostly not excited or knowledgable about snooker or even billiards, so why would you think you would know much or be excited about Bonus Ball....
Well, maybe you should be...it will be the game of the future that will bring excitement back into this great game of billiards.
Instead of knocking it, why not try to learn something about it. Bonus ball will actually help you develop skills that may be useful to you to play better 9-ball....
Get out, play the game...I understand it can be hard to follow a new game with little or no knowledge of it, but, it is alot of fun...
Knowledge is power, then you can make an informed decision...
Larry Chiborak and Barry Bremner have both put in alot of time and money to bring this exciting new game to market. Please give them the benefit of doubt before making a decision....
Thanks
