The bk rush might have been one of the worst pool purchases I made lol I bought it because I’m anal and like everything to match but it doesn’t break one bit better then my bk3 did 🤷‍♂️

Yeah, I had a BK Rush and a BK4 and they broke almost exactly the same...maybe the BK Rush had the tiniest bit less deflection but I'm not even sure of that. Ended up selling the BK Rush because I had the green set of BK Rush and Air Rush and it was worth a bit of $$$ on the used market and I had already found a jump cue I liked better. Just using the BK4 for now and it's great, can always get a BK Rush shaft for it down the road if I want carbon again.

Slow play by pros

say each player had a clock at his/her chair. they clock 'in' and have 45sec to walk to/play their shot. if the bell/alarm/air horn ;) goes off their turn is over. three violations you lose the match. problem solved.

I don’t think this particular implementation would work because an inning might last several minutes without returning to the chair. The whole idea of a chess clock is that the time limit is per game, not per shot or inning.

US Open 08/18-23

We have our first true upset, American Alex Bausch (Fargo 724) beating Mario He 9-8.


Bausch played well at the US Open last year, if I recall.

Mario He is in his early 30s. He doesn’t seem to be getting better. Nor is he living up to expectations.

I can’t find a single major tourney win under his name. Nor does it appear he have ever gotten to the semis of a big MR event.

His most notable claim are several World Cup of Pool titles with partner Albin Ouschan.

Still a formidable foe who cannot be taken lightly, but he’s never been able to get over the hump.

There are other players like that. He, Max Lechner, Skyler Woodward, Naoyuki Oi.

Oi has come close several times, including getting to this year's European Open final. Filler crushed him.

Wojciech Szewczyk hasn’t come truly close in a big WNT event, but he did win a European 9-ball title and a WPA World 10-ball title.

Alex Kazakis whitewashed SVB to win the 2021 World Pool Masters, but he has not shown up big in a Matchroom major.

Who will be the first of this group to win a big MR major? I’d go with Woodward or Szewczyk.

some guy in my pool hall said mario he was a contender, I scoffed at this notion. he is not in the contending class of pool players. he would probably be the 3-5th best american player though

What have you ever done in any kind of sporting event?

How bout giving your name, Fargo rating & where you compete so everyone here can critique your play & ability.

He in no way said he’s better than Corey .. hes asking a legit question. No Corey duel isn’t playing is best anymore.. No he’s not beating the best players in the world at this point. When have you seen him any where near a matchroom final day. It’s a legit question that how accurate is your Fargo if your game is falling off either from age or just lack of competitive play. That doesn’t mean I think you , me or any of the rest of us knuckleheads on here can beat him lol we are comparing his Fargo to the best in the world. Not to amateurs on a pool forum. By your silly post a commentator shouldn’t question anything a player does because he doesn’t have a high Fargo and thats just dumb
