perhaps the "Investors" dont have a choice and are victims of something larger? how bout them apples.
Some people have been paid and others haven't, selective payments are a suspicious thing IMO.
So where is the Bonus Ball annoucement?

I want my own Pocket Beaver.
this is true, Mark aint a knocker, he is a promoter of cue sports, like anyone in biz he protects his own interests, but beyond that he wants to see pool thrive as we all do. I met him 5-6 years ago and he is a class guy, he has paid players with his own $$$ when he didnt have too. I have enjoyed his friendship and pool events for years, JCIN as well.

i wrote several posts on it, one had NSAC Nevada State Alethic Commission links in it and other stuff about the NBA in the early 90's attempting to sway the Gaming Commission to allow their games in Nv to be "on the board", they were going to move a team here. search some of those terms under my name and you will see what i wrote was in about march i'd guess, this past 6 months for sure I have a couple times i brought it up, once i linked it to the NSAC and explained how the mob got contact sports and boxing at the time on the board but ended there.
hope that helps
Quality not Quantity ... :grin-square:
I heard through the grapevine they were supposed to be paid in full today, but now that date has been pushed up. Some of the BB players have threatened to walk if they don't get paid in full.
Similar to the IPT? Well, in some ways, it is worse. What is sad about the players this time is that they have actually moved to Vegas for this venture, only to see it crash and burn before it takes off.
I follow NASA pretty regularly. They have subbed out their manned spaceflight missions to commercial entities. Before a launch, everything is gone over to the nth degree. If something looks wrong, they postpone the flight. Quite the opposite has happened with BB. As we can now see, they are making it up as they go along, i.e., rescheduling willy-nilly that hurts American promoters, changing their start dates, and now the players not getting paid.
Remember when the IPT said they would be saved by the gambling magnate Ho? Well, I would venture to guess BB will be coming out with a smoke-and-mirrors similar to this, just to keep those BB players in Vegas.
My homeboys Brandon Shuff and Mike Davis have both moved to Las Vegas. I hope they have enough money to eat and pay their rent wherever they are. Then there are players who moved here from the other side of the pond, like Darren Appleton. They have been singing the praises of BB. Poor Brandon had been stung by the IPT qualifiers as far as his personal investment and now this. Doggone shame!
Guys are ok .. Be announcement tmrw
Also I currently been living in states since early 2011 .. So I not move from England to Vegas .
Press release should be out anytime now
Please get behind bonus ball and the players if u like professional pool and the players

Aw SNAP. Why do the people who are most affected have to burst everyone's bubble? The speculation was just reaching a crescendo here and we had the popcorn ready for a another night of imaginative fireworks!!!
Simple and well put from someone who should know. Thanks, Darren. Enough said!
You have exquisite English for a Yorkshireman! :grin-square:
Congratulations on your victories this past weekend!
Thanks for taking the time to post on the forum. Looking forward to reading all about it!
Congratulations on your double win!
Thanks, Richie, for the kind words. Some men, especially those who suffer with inferiority complexes, can't handle a woman who actually is opinionated. They prefer to call women vulgar names and believe women should be barefoot and pregnant back in the kitchen cooking them their slop. :angry:
We got the vote in the 20th century, and if Chris Christie doesn't triumph, we'll have a woman President in the White House in 2016. You heard it here first!
You were missed. Where you been lately? :smile:
