Sure if i’m playing in the event even I think it’s silly I’m going to practice it lol wouldn’t be smart not to

because the game your playing is 10 ball. Not who can make a spot shot lol rolls one way or another is pool.

That reminds me of a true story. Years ago, me and two of my best friends (one of whom is now deceased and one, the one in question is married to my little sister) would get together, network our computers and play counter strike.

The friend who is now my BIL would always win, but in ways that seemed insane. One time we're playing and setup at my mom's house. I was up visiting from my duty station in San Diego and I step away from my screen and see his, we were all in different rooms of the house. He was using a mod on his that made the walls all see through. So he'd use the sniper rifle and just shoot us through the walls. f%$#in cheater.

Now as it comes to pool, the changes that have been made haven't been made to make it more fair for the lesser players, or to stop cheaters like my friend, but rather to make the elite stand out more and force people to win by skill, not by luck. It's a completely different animal.

Assessing all that now. LINK

Thinking Proficient or Ryan Theewen.

Ryan experimented with adhesives for vinyl veneers years ago. And he is a master of repair.

How often does this happen, statistically?

I'm older than dirt and I hadn't played for years and only spent a few hours playing on a weekend and I broke and ran 5 racks and made the 9 on the sixth break and scratched in the side to stop my streak at 5.

That doesn't mean I am doing every time I play.

Spot shot decider is stupid. But I did see old pro Ralf Souquet practicing it before a match in Las Vegas this year. Lo and behold the match came down to it and Ralf got by a much younger opponent. Age and cunning…

I don't understand why people hate the shootout so much, it seems like the most fair way possible for a hill-hill match to be settled.

No lucky or unlucky rolls, just a pure test of mechanics under pressure.
