Time and effort required to reach Fargo 400, 500, 600

Sounds about right. If we think about the maximum rating an adult person could reach within their lifetime from their current starting point with realistic motivation/training amount etc. (so no 10h a day for 10 years bullshit which works for 1/10000 of the people for economical, motivational and health reasons), then 600-700 is the most common upper bound. 700-800 for some, if they are already quite highly rated and/or somewhat talented and/or well-off for the sport physically. I doubt anyone has gotten to 800+ as an adult if they weren't already a 700+ as a 18 year old.

I chose adults to discuss here, because a hypothetical 4 year old is much harder to gauge as it's not clear at all how much of their potential is capped by genetics and how much by their motivation and amount/quality of practice for the rest of their childhood/teen years.

$1.5M first place prize for Chinese tournament next week

Imagine winning $1.5M and then coming back to play WNT tournaments 😂😂

As Gideon mentioned, he will probably only be interested in WPC.

pool players shouldn't hang their hopes on a big outside sponsor continuing to add money like this.. it's very possible this whiskey co. didn't find it being a good return for their investment and that this was just a one-off.
