If you won the lottery - I mean, one of the really big Euro Millions Rollovers... Obviously you would buy all the usual luxuries, but what specifically related to pool would you do with your cash? -----------------  Authorised Pro9 forum advertiser/sponsor

Similar to Tony, I'd have a decent table to Championship standard, TV lighting, camera, electronic scoreboard etc and I'd like to have a stable of players I think. Always fancied myself as a Barry Hearn type lol

Great question BD. I'd pay for me and 10 friends to go to America all expenses paid and play in the US Open. Just need to find 10 friends first..

I'd pay to get eight Diamonds set up in the Rack n Roll. And as a condition the marbles tables get used for fire wood to make more space

id have room built on the house, put a supreme winner in it and make it a proper playing room with all the mod cons.
then id run a 9ball event with 500,000 to the winner and invite NONE of the top 24 on any tour unless there my friends or idles.
far too many events been run to line the top players pockets.
placing euro millions numbers as we speak

placing euro millions numbers as we speak Top players arent exactly getting their pockets lined are they? Barely any prize money anywhere... Max win is $40k...
