Were you there last year? I've had a booth every year. There was 1 robbery last year...in the parking lot! But the rumor mill had people being robbed in their rooms, the elevators, the bathrooms, and anyplace else they could think of. Greg has beefed up security this year, hiring many off duty Louisville policemen. Insofar as prostitutes and pimps, I saw no more or less than at any large tournament of this type, or convention. They go were the money and action is.JustPlay said:Security at the DCC is limited at best. Last year they let in prositutes and their pimps at night hanging around the bar and gambling areas.

Wow...I bet you can just look at people and tell that they are pimps and psostitutes. Also, I guess we now know who stole the cues...pimps & prositutes! Yes, there were some cues stolen. Something that has never happened at another tournament, show, poolroom, or bar. We all know that no poolplayer ever stole a cue, so watch out fot those pimps and prostitutes. Since you can identify pimps, prostitutes, theives, and maybe drug dealers??? on sight, please point them out to hotel security and demand that they be kicked out immediately. Better yet, just bring some rope so you can string them up in the galley.JustPlay said:Yes, I was there last year. Also a few cues were stolen. Goto www.cueaddicts.com they have a picture and information on a Keith Josey cue that was stolen. Pimps and prostitutes are theives and should have been kicked out ASAP! No doubt that these are some of the people who have access to the rooms and then be part of the robbery. What is a person going to tell the police? I had a hooker in my room and she robbed me or her pimp robbed me?

SUPERSTAR said:Thanks for the info. Reason i bought up Shannon was because....Frankly, i didn't believe it. Was just checking.
The Derby has always been the pool gem of the year if you ask me. BUT...you never know. Scumbags follow the money.
Just thought that since the tournament seems to get bigger and bigger every year, that there might be a security issue.
I remember a guy watching me play backgammon for hours in the hallway for a big enough wager, and when the doubling cube went crazy a couple times, and i won, this guys eyes lit up. Needless to say, he was "hanging" around me for a couple o days. Sweating my matches...and lingering around me, till i had to use the riverboat as a broke excuse when i asked someone to lend me 10 bucks in front of his face. Just to get him off my back!
When he thought i was tapped out, he soon stopped following me around.
