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.
Grudge Match - Columbus, Ohio August 20,21

Gene is only putting up $500? This has got to be the cheapest way to advertise that I've ever seen. Plus he can get that back, and maybe more off of PPV?
They used to be barking at each other for 5k, and now it's $500. This is pathetic. This whole thing stinks of a PR stunt to get more perfect aim advertisement out there for virtually free. It's a total free shot at some money and free advertisement. God forbid that Gene wins or we will never hear the end of it.
$500? Really? I'm actually amazed Bartrum is willing to make the drive to the poolroom for this.

if you switch to a barbox, let me know, I'll drive down with money in my pocketYou're the fav there....
I know you have a shot to take this.... but there is no reason not to get the right price for the game... only asking what he asks for when he plays tough dudes
Here is what I'll do
I come play gene for 5 k and more
Anywhere you want us to play on any table
If you post ill come after we play in fact we will
Both be in belit fri you want to come back him there?
T minus 24 hours....
I know this a tough request but can anyone link to the original post that set all this in motion? The one where allegedly Gene said he would play Bart even for 5k? I am just interested to see the genesis of all this.

Good luck geno!
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!!

WTH John??? Banned again???
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.

Gene if you think you have the best of it, you wont mind betting 1k that you wont win a set.

If you really thought you had the best of it, you would bet a lot more than 500.
Why don't you come here and play Chris.....
You can bet more.........
You can bet all you want and I might bet with you or against but the money has nothing to do with this.
I told him i could win about 4 years ago. This has been going on for awhile.
I was not prepared to play or bet allot of money 7 days ago.
I bet what i could. I've worked hard all week to get in stroke.
If I had the money I would cover your bet and then maybe not.
I'd rather play him on my table in my town with my ball in my favorite poolhall.
Good Luck. Maybe you can find someone to bet with.
To me the money is not that important..........
And i don't think Chris wants to lose either.
Get ready for an upset here.
Close to hill hill would be an upset. Nobody hardly gives me a chance.
But that's OK.

I give you a real good chance, i heard what you did to my boy Tony Long when you came to Baltimore a little bit ago, it takes a real good player to beat him and you destroyed him!
I like you so much , i bet the 1st set and laid 2-1 on the money, and all you have to do is get to 14, i love it, i just wish i had more to bet!
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!
Wow! Thanks for pointing that out. I just saw him post a couple weeks ago that he knows how to play the rules and would never be banned on here again. Wonder what he did this time?
