Grudge Match - Columbus, Ohio August 20,21

You know, say what you want about gamble or rules or table or anything else that usually comes up in a barkfest that involves 2 high profile guys and a bunch of rail birds.....What I love about this is it boils down to 2 guys that don't particularly care for one another and each thinks they can win and they both sack up and get in the box to find out mano vs mano. Kudos to you both and good luck. Life is short wag more and bark less.

What he said.....

I bought it to stream in my place tonight on the 65" while our 9-Ball playoffs match is going on.. Hopefully its a nice little surprise for everybody tonight! :)
 
If Bart is playing for this little amount of money, Whats that tell you?

He is playing for pride!

Sometimes money dont rule, and i believe this is the time!

They both have plenty of pride and they should, its going to hurt for a long time for the loser of this match and it wont be because of the money!

Nice post and this is as real as it gets. After 4 years of Gene saying he can win Bart finally got the stars aligned right. No way he would travel to play Gene this cheap but since its in his own town, why the hell not?

As far as people acting like Gene is nitty...hey the man is betting what he can afford. Always kills me when I see some of these action hounds running around places like derby city calling somebody a nit cause they are only betting a few hundred or whatever it may be. Then the same people ask 15 people to go up with them in a 2000 set or get staked. What a joke.

Both of these guys bet their own time and time again. Got to respect that. Chris has no problem betting high and you couldn't ask for a better guy to gamble with. Great etiquette, respectful, honest,
loyal, and an all around cool guy.

Same can be said for Gene. These two are gonna show you it doesn't take a bunch of bs to get a pool game. They play how all of us should and set a great example for players.

Unfortunately there are World Champions, US open champs, and Bonus ball champs that can't be spoken so highly of. Shame.
 
You can spin your negativity anyway you want. Maybe you would prefer if we just Put up all the money including expenses?

This is the BEST action there is. Grudge action. We have 2 guys that really wanna break it off in each other. They have been woofing for a while. Bottom line is, We are gonna put this one to rest once and for all.

Gene was down to about 1200 bankroll when we put this together. Betting 500. of their own was really hard for Gene since he lives on the road and it's 40% of his roll. I put up the PPV cause I wanna see this match. If you don't wanna see it, don't get it.

If we wait till a lot of players have the cash to gamble on, we won't see too many matches besides exhibitions.

It's a true grudge match and THAT I personally love to watch.

If Gene loses, It WILL hurt. Believe it.

If Gene wins, IT WILL HURT! :winknudge:

Good luck Gene, I saw you play just once in the dells at the BCW state championship and I know if you're at that speed you'll give anyone fits! I watched Geno take it to Manny Chau think he only missed one ball I still remember it vividly, it was awesome! Gonna try to get down to Beloit this weekend and watch you beasts live, maybe take a quick lesson if you have some time, give 'em hell buddy!!

I have to watch this match, somebody, call me on my cell an hour before it goes off. I will stop fishing just to watch this match.

Once you purchase the pass, If you checked out as a guest you ill need to wait until you get an email that says "order status update". This will have a download link in it with your passwords. One for each day. The link to watch is also in the download file but here it is: http://www.poolactiontv.com/pages/Live-Show.html . If you are a registered member, then you can get your file under "order status", top right of website.

That password will be needed when we go live. You will see a password box in the center of the screen.

If you have any trouble, I will be helping people in the chatroom. Just left click on PoolActionTV and send a private message. Sometimes it takes a minute to answer in the chat, so please be patient. I WILL get to you.

Thanks,

Ray

The match with Chris and Gene.

I'm sure you saw Gene beat Manny. It isn't the first time Gene has beaten other champions FOR SURE. We should start calling Gene, "Mr. Perfect Aim". Lol

Hey, they guy has certainly brought some improved play to a lot of people who have taken his Perfect Aim Lesson.

I've seen both of these guys play. THIS MAY BE ONE OF THE BEST MATCHES ever recorded. I want to see some stoney looks from Chris on the sideline and Gene scratching his head along with some great play by both guys and I truly believe we will see that from both players.

I wish I were there. I would be unbiased in my commentary.
 
Match will begin at 7 p.m. Eastern Standard Time

I ironed off the 25 and left a nice message in the comment section.

Also, I will pay another 25 if Gene and Chris give one another multiple high fives, fist "pounds", and warm hugs throughout the match. :thumbup:
 
Tough action..........

After each game and their embrace must last at least 30 seconds.:thumbup:

High five and all, but hugs?????????????????

All I can say is get the popcorn and beverage of your choice and enjoy the Big truck Show.

This guys been doing it all over the country.

We need about 20 Ray Hansons running around the country doing streams.

Loves pool and shows it with his dedication to putting on the best show possible.

My hats off to Ray.

Did someone say that CJ is looking for someone to play................??????????????????
