Mark Kraus and Derek Brown were reffing the match as you can see on the video. I told Kraus I hope he was getting more than $2 per player for reffing and he said that both were supposed to get 1% or $200 each for reffing per money man Allen Reece. After losing the match cheapskate pulled Derek Brown aside 2 hours later and said they were paying nothing because it appeared they were paid off by the other team causing him to lose $10,000. What a piece of shit!!!!!!!! I didn’t see any evidence of that in the entire match. Nobody seemed to complain about much of anything and the two time calls that were made were against the other team. Did I mention what a piece of shit Allen Reece is right now? Great way to try and get Foos back to something meaningful.

I’d have to be flat broke to ref a $20,000 match because you know there is a good chance the losers are going to blame you for the loss. It’s easier to point a finger than accept the loss for a lot of players.

Ever since I seen this bet on Facebook I was hoping the $20,000 wasn’t just show money to generate interest for the PPV streaming.

In the pool halls it was customary for the winners to cover the tips for a 3rd party like holder of the money. I don’t remember any gambling match using refs.

I couldn’t hear if somebody said jar but it did look like a jar and it ended up on Jamie’s 5-bar and he passed it to his 3-bar and scored so at least it didn’t cost him.
My biggest point of contention is that it was agreed upon before the match that the refs would get paid $200 each and then that deal was reneged on 2 hours after the match was over. I don’t think the refs were unfair, they did their job, and the match was very competitive and cordial. It really was a good match. Why end it by not sticking to your agreement. Moral of the story I guess is ‘get your money up front before you ref’. Allen needs to make good on his agreement.
