BTW, get some of those empanadas if you haven't had them. The chicken and cheddar ones are great!

I apologize to Allen Hopkins and friends. I can see what I wrote wasn't thought out very good and it wasn't what I meant at all. I like Allen, played him once back in NJ. He was a perfect gentleman and the games didn't end well for me :embarrassed2:. I know Allen has done a lot of good things for pool in his pool life, including getting the players on TV.

What I meant is that Allen and others seem to be stuck in the 1980's, and I think it's because they listen to the players too much. To me streaming an event is a no brainer. Yes, he already had sponsors, but with streaming you give your sponsors a little more bang for their buck. I can understand because I am very low tech too. You could get away with it in business a few years ago, but not so much anymore. Pool needs to learn to use many of the new things that have come out since the 1980' and 90's or else it will be stuck on the subway to never return. Johnnyt

We need more Azer's like this.
 
As pertaining to the streaming side of things of this outstanding event:

Countless of us west coast-types have heard/read of SBE over the years (or are new to the sport) but are hesitant to take the trip, what with the expen$e$ involved and all. I think dangling a "bigger carrot" is needed to get folks like us to make the trip and a live stream would be just that. Given an opportunity to see what it is all about on stream would inspire a good deal of us to make the trip next year. Once we've experienced it, we would pass the word at home and come back -- this time with friends!

A future investment while getting our sport out their for the general public at the same time is a good thing growth-wise I would think! SBE would not even have to bare the expense of setting up and running the stream. If it is the thought of the streamer making money selling DVDs of the event, just don't allow it or get a percentage via a simple contract. Mr Hopkins may be thinking that a live stream would cut down on attendance from those living on the east-side. Would an increase of attendees from the middle and west sides more then offset that?

Am I thinking wrong here/off base (?) ... I could be. Mr Hopkins has been at it for a long time and may have reasons beyond my feeble mental processing power. Allen Jr/anyone - If I'm off base here --> smarten me up.

The Pro Players Championship at the SBE was streamed free the last few years by Inside Pool Magazine.
 
Can someone please update the brackets. Thanks

Here you go. Ralph Souquet and Tommy Kennedy aren't playing on the listed table (or any other that I can see), it's a ladies match between Sarah Rousey and Brittany Bryant that started at 6:00. Not sure what's going on there.

*** technical difficulties - pics in a sec.
