I was more or less joking about JL, but w/o the WPBA Tour no one would have any idea who she was=NO sponsorship money or any of the other things she does or promotes to make money. Johnnyt

They need to hire a new PR Man. Their current one sucks!
It's a little hard to do PR when you have an inferiority complex. That press release was demeaning to the women players who will be playing in the U.S. Open. I'm beginning to see why their tour is falling apart. Something is lacking in the leadership area, that would allow such a statement about their players to go out to the media.
One of the biggest advances in professional pool the last 10-15 years has been the level of play of the women competitors. They have risen to the point where it is feasible for them to compete on the same playing field with the men. To deny that fact now, is not fair to the players who have worked so hard to get where they are.
There exists an opportunity for pool to become a major sport internationally. Hopefully someone will have the far sight and expertise to put it together. A professional tour where there is gender equality and total non discrimination by sex is the best possible future for the sport of pool. I hope I live to see that day.
Is the same person still the President of the Board and WPBA?
That was short lived.
No, Steve is playing in the next event! It's his way of protesting the women playing in the U.S. Open. He will have to wear a wig and a dress though. No problem, he already has both. :ignore:
Just wanted to confirm here that Chris Bartram the Nit has agreed to this bet.
If Jasmin and Chris will ever meet in a tournament-match, we have a $ 500 bet.
Chris is however a true nit, pu$$y and locksmith, so he backed out of the 14-1 part, and is only on for 8-ball, 9-ball and 10-ball.
I love Jasmin's game, but if Chris is gambling with her I'll bet on him. Even if it's a tournament match. If he bets $500 on himself, so will I.
The bet was open to Chris only, and he has accepted.
She doesn't gamble, so it has to be in a tournament match.
She has beaten better players than Chris, and lost to far worse, so it's a gamble. I like my chances.
I don't know about tournament match, but when it comes to gambling, I will say Chris has advantage. I'm sure there are people who will back me up that not all great tournament players also make great gambler.
It takes different mind set and different pressure - even if players are being backed.
Chris is too seasoned of gambler - and has proved over and over that he is not afraid to match up with anyone. But most importantly, he hardly cracks under a pressure and delivers consistent performance.
If Jasmin, who usually doesn't gamble grew a wild hair and matched up with Chris, I will say me money is on Chris.
Oh, dude, do I have to post when I bet on you?
S.
So now I'm barred, after you robbed me eight or ten times! :angry:
We can bet a dinner then. You get to pick the restaurant if you win. Has to be on site wherever we see each other though.
Perhaps a bald Lil Red Riding Hood from the Hood can play as well?
Ok, I'll bet you a dinner then.
If I lose the bet I hope we will meet in Manila. If I win I will order lobster at DCC :thumbup:
