Is removing your glove a shark move?

I think it’s time this is discussed…

It’s hill-hill, ur opponent scratches on the break. Then walks over to his chair and removes his glove as if the outcome of the match is already determined.

How is this not considered dismantling of equipment, just like breaking down a cue, which is universally considered a forfeit?

I’ve seen that a number of times here at the INT open…. As well as one player who broke down his jump cue and put it in his bag while his opponent was still shooting.
To me breaking down your cue is a yes.. glove I don’t think so but I guess it could be.

Why Dbl Elimination ?? Lets be Single

Well if it is double elimination and you lose your first match you don't have to stick around for the next match if you don't really want to be there.

Of course the establishment want to keep the place busy and make some money out of it. That's why they are there in the first place.

No argument there from me. I’m not against it - I’m just pointing out that the players never have a say. The whole reason why everyone has a jump cues.

Who is the best player of the last 40 years not to win a major event?

basically i started it with some names many newer players never heard of that could beat many or most of the tournament winners. and some even after the tournament would challenge him for the prize money. how about that..

i don't want to be rude but mike eufemia had no possible chance to win a tournament the last 40 years as he died in 1978

International Open 2025

Sometimes things go unnoticed especially when there's alot going on. I haven't done commentary in lately and at my age it's difficult to be consistently on point. Imo I felt that the entire production was done well hopefully we can do better. Enjoy your day.
I enjoyed your commentary. As you know, you don't need to explain everything....only players watch one pocket.
