I’d like to see filler v Fedor in 9 ball, one pocket, and banks one on one match (perhaps 14.1 too).

Just use a wooden rack

I think this is more AI crap. Their website has a list of advisors, none of whom I've ever heard of. I wonder if any of the "winners" paid to win. If none, I wonder how they are making money, and if they have generated other "best in the history of the universe" for other sports.

"Obvious" is different under WPA/WSR and CSI (BCAPL/USAPL) rules because they are written for different situations. The WSR rules assume that usually there is a referee or the players are more experienced. CSI is for situations that are not officiated and more chaotic and the players are more aggressive. That's the way I see it. At least CSI doesn't require patching the pocket for shots.

A year or so ago we saw a result of this difference in a pro 10-ball tournament under CSI rules when the 7(?) was sitting in the jaws with the 4 a short distance out. The player shot the completely obvious combination and had to give up the table when the opponent claimed the non-call. The call would not have been required under WSR.

Time to eliminate the cut break

I wonder how a 2008 year Shane would’ve done against today’s Fedor.
