...And got bitten. Then the fanboys leapt in to defend him.

In summary;

1. Team Keith tried to intimidate people by challenging them to bets they knew they would win.
2. Team Keith offered specific terms eg up to $20,000, appropriate weight, all details to be made in public, with no emails or PMs etc.
3. Team Keith challenged someone who readily accepted.
4. Team Keith are now back-peddling furiously, saying arrangements must now be made in private, and saying the game must be banks or one pocket.

Jr did nothing but graciously accept a bet and call Team Keith's bluff. Team Keith tried to bully him and he held his ground like a man.

You need to check again . Keith offered to play and it will be 7 thousand a set
The rest is between them. He never said he would feed the birds. And long rail banks and 1 hole are good games. James posted he plays all games. Get your facts straight .
What you posted is inaccurate

one of keith's initial posts about the bet stated betting amounts of 10k & 20k, which is why thaiger posted "eg up to $20,000"

railbirds will do what they do. sing out side bets.

Well two 7 thousand dollar sets = 14 thousand (not trying to insult anyone's intelligence ) that's right in the meat of 10 to 20 correct?
Now how is that Keith isn't backing up his bark?
Just curios

I don't really agree with Thaiger's anaylsis.

James Davis Jr., is a nice young man, plays good, has been playing in many tournaments for at least the last five years, just beat SVB in the hotseat match at White Diamonds. He is also, apparently, a smart guy looking for a good opportunity.

If you can't see that he saw Keith chirping, and decided to look him up, because Keith probably doesn't know him, and take a shot at getting a game with a guy whose legendary status would make such a game very good for himself, for sure with exposure and (in his mind) monetarily also, then you are more than a little naive.

And how much risk is there really in goading a guy that has not played competitively for quite a few years into a game. It's win, win for James.


Keither surely doesn't need my advice, but I know he will match up correctly, and if this really happens, Keith, be sure you got your book ready too. As you know there's a lot of interest in that.

Oh well, another one bites the dust.
 
I'm posting in this....just to say I did. Lol.

I'd LOVE to see this match-up. I was at White Diamond a couple of weeks ago for the Monster Calcutta and James Davis Jr. was extremely strong.

And Keith McCready is Keith McCready.....and I mean that in the most respectful way possible.

......this MIGHT not be truly legendary now......but as JDJr further establishes himself, it could be known as legendary in the future.

So, have we got action or what?
 
If THIS game ever happens, Keith M vs James jr i will bet my house my home and everything else i own on one the greatest pool players of all time Mr. KEITH McCREADY!
