I would like to know who might be interested in matching up top players in a mini series patterned after the Derby City Classic?

Short Rack Banks: Eleven Games...... Game value = three points each

Nine Ball: Thirty Five Games...... Game value = two points each

One Pocket: Seven Games....... Game value = four points each

Players must compete "one-on-one" in all games. Player who accumulates most points of the 131 points available declared the winner.

Players only.

No Railbirds, Stakehorses or Guests in attendance.

All matches refereed by internationally known individual whose name will be provided to the players before match up for their mutual consent.

Rules of play as per Derby City Classic.

No on site gambling permitted. Anyone wishing to wager on the outcome
must do so on their own. Match results made available only to those
persons who are on player's list.

Equipment:

New Diamond nine foot pro table with 860 Simonis Derby City Classic blue cloth. Diamond four bulb lighting. Pro Aramith balls. Cueball of choice to be agreed upon before match.

Location:

Private million dollar home in Phoenix, AZ.

For further details, email your interest to CrossSideLarry@aol.com

Sounds

Nice, but one question.... What would be the players incentive for doing this if there is not onsite gambling? You are going to ask 2 top players to play a marathon match for 'funsies'? Good luck ... You will need it ... lol
 
I agree with snapshot on that one. I don't think I have ever seen two top players go head to head for pride. Just like any true street racer, they are going for the gold or pinks. No guests? No Railbirds? sounds like a party with 3 people.

Good question!

No "on site" gambling does not mean "no gambling" . Soliciting gambling is
illegal in the great state of Arizona. To do so via the internet would put me at risk of being arrested and prosecuted. Any wagering between players and their backers could easily be arranged!

Hope this answered your question. For more info, please email me at CrossSideLarry@AOL.com

Very insightful comment.

Soliciting gambling is illegal in our great state of Arizona. To do so via the internet would put me at risk of being arrested and prosecuted. This does not mean that outside wagering would not take place between backers, hence the incentive should be obvious!

If the players would prefer to bring one guest of their choice, that could be accomodated!

For more details, please email me at CrossSideLarry@aol.com
 
I would think you will need to make allow the player's stake horse to be there. JMO but if I was putting up the cash, I would want to watch the matchup go down in person.

Perhaps you should make signs that say "No No Gambling"
 
I read the title, and I thought you were hosting a swinger get-together.
 
Why are these threads always started by nameless people!

If you put out a challenge like this please, at least start it with "Hi my name is ........!"

Tuh :rolleyes:

I took it as if he was offering to host it and not so much as a challenge. I could be wrong though. :)
 
I took it as an offer to host not as a challenge?

Yes, Jimmy you are correct. Would you be Jimmy Mendoza?

It sounds like Larry is offering a venue for these challenge matches, and is being intelligently vague about any gambling details. I'd like to do the same thing here eventually, but my house isn't $1Mil and no Diamond table, just a GC knockoff.......but I am only 1 block to the beach! and I'm one hell of a cook! :D

Is this home in Surprise? That must be some home. I almost purchased a 4000 square foot home there for 195k about 4 years ago. The same house (same builder) was selling over on I17 and Pinnacle Peek for $395k at the same time. Surprise was dirt cheap for houses.

You must have had a mansion built to be worth a cool million ;)

Read the LAW...

http://www.gambling-law-us.com/State-Laws/Arizona

This part is very intresting.

7. "Social gambling" means gambling that is not conducted as a business and that involves players who compete on equal terms with each other in a gamble if all of the following apply:



(a) No player receives, or becomes entitled to receive, any benefit, directly or indirectly, other than the player's winnings from the gamble.

(b) No other person receives or becomes entitled to receive any benefit, directly or indirectly, from the gambling activity, including benefits of proprietorship, management or unequal advantage or odds in a series of gambles.

(c) Until June 1, 2003, none of the players is below the age of majority. Beginning on June 1, 2003, none of the players is under twenty-one years of age.

(d) Players "compete on equal terms with each other in a gamble" when no player enjoys an advantage over any other player in the gamble under the conditions or rules of the game or contest.



13-3302. Exclusions


A. The following conduct is not unlawful under this chapter:



1. Amusement gambling.

2. Social gambling.
 
Yea, I was under the impression (I read it somewhere) that gambling at pool was legal in AZ.

Because it is considered a game of skill. You can only bet on yourself and can't raise the stakes mid match. Somebody posted a link, a while ago, to some site that has all the gambling laws for each state. That is where I read it...
