I like Alex and John, but it's a damn exhibition. Who cares who wins?
 
Alex P will play to entertain so that match means nothing imo but I suspect Sigel and Schmidt will play hard for bragging rights
 
When Mike Sigel made his 'out of retirement' tournament apperence for a 14.1 tournament... he ended up breaking his cue and losing to a young talented player from Carson City Nevada named John Schmidt.

I think that was either in the late 90s or early 2000????
 
The AVERAGE amount of people watching each pro's matches throughout the year is probably less than 50. The amount of people watching you play when you are on the IPT or TAR live feed is going to be perhaps more poeple than have watched you play all year. The players know this and I have to believe that pool players care a lot about how others think they play and move.

That being said I think anyone doing a live match is playing their heart out and perhaps even more nervous than normal.

These matches are potentially huge for the players to get future sponsers. $$$

Most matches the pros play in front of an audience they aren't guaranteed any money for winning because they are usually going to be in the early tourney rounds.

I will bet on these matchups all day long knowing full well that my horse is trying his hardest.

I agree. Just looking to sweat something. If you want Jay, I'll take Alex and Mike and you can have Karl and John. Only pay off if both picks win. Just looking to sweat something, or bet a dinner or a couple rounds on it.

I love sweat bets and I will take Karl and John. $25 each so someone is getting $50 or nothing if you want. I just paid Fast Lenny and Jb Cues and have itrader feedback from them. Pay via paypal immediately after the second match. Confirm on this thread and we have a bet.

Confirmed. I will pay the beginning of the following business day due to lack of internet access in my home.

I assume 15 in 8 ball and 125 in straight pool. Same format as last match, but this is never actually posted.

That sounds perfectly fair. Looking forward to sweating these matches!!! All the money I win on John Schmidt will go towards a pool vacation lesson thingy with him.
 
Anyone interested in laying odds on John Schmidt over Mike Sigel put a line out, you might get some action.

11 to 10. I'll also take 3 to 2 on Boyes over Alex.

Hey Jay, I owe you from all the bets you lost to me. I'll bet $100 on whoever you don't like to give you a chance to get even. Wanna bet???
