Raffle Idea For The Hardcore Gamblers

I can't afford $1,000, but I'm sure there are some that can... again, it's a GAMBLE as stated already!

One thing I would suggest: Whoever is going to draw the names/numbers for prizes, must have access to live video feed and it be done live and only those involved need to have access to the drawing for security purposes, especially for the first raffle at this level!

What if you got 30 people to kick in $750, that gives $22,500 to the raffle. Only the first 20 will win a cue or case, the other 10 that don't win prizes receives $250 back... you still get the $20,000 to cover merchandise, and the losers are only out $500, instead of spending $1,000 on a $200-$300 item and be out $700-$800?

Just a thought!

that is too much math and/or reading for such a fine member of our azb community such as alexb. he only posts when he can take a cheap shot at someone. look at the rest of his posts. youll see


I only take cheap shots at you, the biggest and dumbest AZZHOLE on here. You are a moron and an imbecile and those are your only good points. My previous comment was not a cheap shot by any means but was simply pointing out Poolplyr1111's error in math. If he wants 20 players for $15K worth of items then the cost should be $750/player. I also said I would be interested. Reading comprehension is key to understanding language. You can't comprehend English, nor can your cheap azz afford to play. Congratulations on having an entire post without a spelling error. Now work on your punctuation.

The 15,000 value is based on 1 Hercek, 2 Schicks, and 1 Lambros



The items listed in red make up the rest of the 5k in goods

You are making that assumption. Poolplyr1111 never states that. Poolplyr1111's OP indicates what the value of his listed items is ($14-15K), then he lists the items,including the cases. As presently posted, there are $14-$15K of goods, and he is trying to raffle them for $20k.

I Just Want To Run This Past My Fellow Az Community. Now We Have All Seen Raffles Happen Here On Az And For The Most Part They Work Out Well For Everyone. What If There Was A Raffle For Some Premium Cues/cases Where You Not Only Have A Shot To Win A $5000 Cue But Your Guaranteed To Win Something?

In The Last Few Days I Have Listed 2 Herceks,2 Schicks, And A Lambros. Total Value Of These Cues Is Over $20,000. One Hercek Is Now Gone. Which Brings The Value Down To $14000-$15000.

Now This May Sound Crazy But This Is Just A Feeler.

Im Willing To Raffle Off 20 Spots At $1000 A Piece. If You Buy A Spot You Are "guaranteed" To Win Something.

Prizes Will Be As Follows

Hercek Gambler Cue
(2) Bill Schick Cues
Loaded Lambros Cue
Mint R12 Schon
(10) It's George Cases
(5) New Joss Cues

20 Prizes For 20 Ticketsand A Chance To Win Some Monster Cues.

Since This Would Be Serious Business For Those Who Dare To Be Involved. I Would Reach Out To A Respected Az Member Who Would Have No Interest In The Outcome Of The Raffle And Would Do The Drawing And Post The Results Here On Az.

Any Feedback Would Be Appreciated. Once Again It Might Be A Crazy Idea But I Think It Would Be Very Exciting For All Those Who Are Involved.
Not taking sides, but I understood his math okay! His original value only talked about 4 cues, his $20,000 has 20 items.

Could be, maybe even probably, but that is not how it is written. I don't make $1000 assumptions.
