Btw, can you confirm this for me pareng Edwin? This quote came from a different forum, a boxing forum to be exact!
"Three days before the start of the tournament, I saw Efren Reyes waiting for a train at the Akasaka train station in Central Tokyo. He told me, him and his companions are playing in a tournament in Kanagawa, Japan and they are billeted in a hotel nearby. He was later joined by Django, and after a few minutes with another Pinoy companion, who I didn't recognized. They boarded a train bound for Kanagawa."
bandido said:Yup! Here, we recognized the problems leading o the decline of the sport. So instead of stakehorses/managers supporting different players
we formed stables. Since we are in agreement as to what was causing the decline we just got together and formed the BMPAP.
The USA is different because of the way of life there. Sport related industry in certain regions should probably band together and support accomplished players and furnish training for the hopefuls. Have an East against West rivalry of some sort.
gopi-1 said:The top half of the Draw:
Dimitri Jungo - Marcus Chamat
Chris Melling - Ralf Souquet
Bottom half of the Draw
Warren Kiamco - Dennis Orcullo
Ronnie Alcano - Bruno Muratore
No repeat of last year's finals (Alcano - Orcullo)...
bandido said:How can that be? Perry, Putch, Rolly and I just had a meeting this afternoon and got to talk to Francisco and Alex about our May 6-10 Sen. Villar Cup. They won't be leaving the country 'til the first week of May for the World Pool Masters. Efren is currently out of the country and won't be back until just before Alex and Francisco leaves as he's playing in our May6-10 event and he'll be flying in coming from the US.
I think that would be a great start to a new begining. The sport needs something and that could work...gopi-1 said:I agree.
The only way to trigger another pool boom here in the US, aside from another pool movie blockbuster hit is if they hold a regional tournament all over, or better yet an All State finals were all 50 states are represented by their very best, pro or amateur.

I would say so since we got to talk to Francisco and Alex right there and then and just couldn't get a hold of Efren because of the time zone difference. Rolly did leave a message for Efren to call immediately though.gopi-1 said:Well, I guess it's "hawshaw" then huh?

You've got a deal my friendgopi-1 said:Care for a sweat bet Bill? You'll take the top half and I'll take the bottom half and say, $20 Paypal?
JAM said:Really?
I know for a fact that the very sight of you at tournaments makes spectators laugh because they know what you're all about. People want to see REAL pool players when they go to so-called "world-class events," not British lobsters.

TheOne said:LOL, It must be so puzzling when I beat their favs hehe![]()
Anyway bad luck on the 8 ball, but I have to say it's good to see you embracing this event! It sure makes a change to the nasty comment you made about the middle east and "camels" when you dismissed it last year...
TheOne said:GREAT Britain!!!

The One I am beginning to think that the only reason you come on AZ is to pick fights with JAM. When JAM took her leave of absense from AZ, I very rarely ever saw a post from you. Now that she is back, here you are... Hmm.
