Mark Lunn and Liam Waterworth. Both from Leeds area. Both can hold a cue as i imagine anyone who plays for £500 can. Conversation came about money matches and pool and i rememberd this thread. I explained to both theres a guy from leicster called baz asking for stakes for pool on a poker forum asked them if they would be intrested if a game could be arranged, both said yes, and here i am now asking if there would be any intrest from Baz wanting to play. There both young, LIams played a few matches between £100- 300, Mark hasnt played his 1st money match yet. Let us know your thoughts and if theres any more info you want.
Rather play Dubai's egotistical mates, but if that's off, I'm up for this plan. |

Don't count on Mark not having played any money matches. Maybe he hasn't at 9 ball.
He plays all cue sports and very experienced at 8 ball. Had played youth international IIRC. Also done well in many tournaments with pros in

Me and Liam Waterworth get on quite well as pals, so this would be a no no game anyway just for that. He's a very good player and we've had a couple of cheap sets against each other. Let's put it simply, I wouldnt want to draw him in a competition let alone play for money.  Begaslover - the GB9 tour is phenomenal now. Lee Rigby does a great job as organiser, but now its moved to Barcelo hotels its turned very expensive and no value for money either. Tables they play on are awesome, but they no Brunswick or Diamond tables. Want to get the roll up to a grand if I can, I'll count Jamier in on the action. I can't match any more than a grand (and that's at a push) so anyone else who wants a piece there's £375 left. |

When i first spoke to the lads i was been pritty vague, spoke to liam since he does know you baz and thinks like wise about your game, TBH the boys were more intrested about how someone can get staked for pool on the internet. Fwiw mark hasnt played any money matches holding a cue at any sport but as pointed out by vegaslover hes a very capable player. Gl luck with staking baz its not something i would not be intrested as its a long term comitment but if you ever get a match and stuck a stake request similar to a tournment stake and were selling %%% of yourself then pm me i would be intresterd in buyin a piece if it was over one match.

If these kids were any good and had a brain- they would just get 4/5 credit cards whilst they are young- and go play for proper money- the fact they dont means they either aint very good or are stupid

Perhaps if you tell us which afternoons you are available next week and we can try and re-arrange it. |

What is Money Match Tv?
It is an event televised by www.cuesport.tv and hosted at Vegas Bar, Wakefield. There are 4 main matches where the winner stays on for next event and defends their 'crown', while there are 2 wildcard matches. Cuesport.tv choose what they think will be the 3 best games to stream while the other 3 are 'undercard' matches and not shown live. All players have walkon music and get interviewed before/after the match. All matches are race to 21 racks of 9-ball Matches played for £500 a man minimum. There is also a similar event being set up at Hurricane Room in High Wycombe, and I have a few potential matchups there too. Dont think the games are streamed live (TBC) but games are race to 11 for £50 minimum and race to 19 for £200 minimum. For me I'm personally looking to play for higher stakes against the players I know I can beat. |
