I just want everybodies opinion on the UPA's latest. There is a Joss Tour event,(15,000) added at turning stone casino on the 19th and 20th of february. Mike Zuglan the promoter of the Joss tour published his schedule somewhere around August of last year, so it has beeb out quite awhile for all to see.
Now enter this new north american tour with an event scheduled to start on the 20th of february. Whoever heard of a tournament starting on a sunday, other than a players meeting. Mike over at az has stated in reply to a thread i posted over there that the promoter wanted to change the dates but that the sanctioning body stepped in and said no. guess who the sanctioning body is. The UPA, why would the UPA do this to Mike Zuglan? Is this in retaliation for Mike not letting the UPA sanction any of mike's events. They tried this in the past, remember mike would not let them sanction 1 of his events and charlie williams threatened to hold the capital city classic at the same time. What does the UPA have against mike Zuglan and the Joss tour. this is not the first time that the UPA has scheduled events at the same time as mike's big events. Is it that they are so succesful (the joss tour) or is it that the UPA still wants to control all pool. I wish someone would come on here from the UPA and explain it to me and all of us before this turns into another bashing. and to top it off, if a player get knocked out of the Joss event they can't go play in Pittsburgh cuz there is a mandatory players meeting on Saturday.......go figure. I just sent a letter by email to the promoter asking for answers....................mike
