Arizona Open 2026, Yuma, August 13-16

Fedor remains a superstar of the highest order, one of the best all-around players we've ever seen. In a chat he and I had in November, I told him that if he exceeds Efren's total of five Derby City Classic Master of the Tables awards, I will deem him to be the best all-around player in pool history. Admittedly, getting three more is a very tall order, but it could happen.

Fedor's absence from the last two WNT majors is unfortunate, but what's wrong with him opting to focus on building his brand as an entrepreneur in pool instead?
What about all the DCC all-arounds that Efren would have won if the DCC had existed during Efren's prime?

The Chinese Heyball players are lucky that SVB doesn't play the game.

If SVB played the game, the Chinese players would be going hungry.
I want some of what you're smoking. I love Shane to death, but Wu would DESTROY him at Duya 9 ball, and there are 20+ chinese guys that would destroy him at Heyball. If Shane was 20 years old again, and went to live in China and play snooker and chinese 8 ball, then, yeah, he would have been a top player over there. I don't know if there is a universe where he would be better than Wu.

Have You Played Short Rack 9 Ball?

i almost always just gambled at 6 ball. nothing goes on the break so one player doesn't have some big break advantage.
games go much faster and all players believe that they can get out so think the game gives them a chance.

any new game or game that gives the impression a player that isnt the big favorite can run out, is more tempting than one where onlt one of the two can run out as in 9 ball.

but if only looking to play for a dollar or so you can invent new games to get bad players to try them.

Figured BEM handle, on a Players PureX pool cue. Real, or Fake / Decal / Graphic Overlay?

I am often wrong and it feels considerably better than being a pompous jack ass.

I was wrong, but he was really very mean, and very nasty towards me. Some of you guys tend to be really nasty to me at times, and it really gets under my skin. Do you even see how nasty you are at times? I have mental problems. I just can't hand it, and laugh it off, or whatever.

Some of you guys do not seem like the type that would ever admit when you are wrong about anything that you say. Some guys here just seem like total narcissists.

Missing these important tournaments will not help his preparation for the MC. Mother Emily is Fedor played in the UK and European opens. SVB played in neither.

Styer and Woodward also skipped the UK and European opens.

The only American to play in all four big Matchroom events this year is … Nathan Childress!

The Arizona event was announced late, so who knows if Gorst already had commitments. Whatever the case, he’s played as many events as the other Americans who’ve played on the Mosconi. He is going to the Phoenix Open and U.S. Open and probably the Philippines Open.

Remember, players expected the WPC to be played as well as the WPC lead-in event. They probably expected a Hanoi Open too.

Just get points. That’s all a player has to do. Matchroom appears to have done away with excluding players anymore, as they did with Josh and Shane. Backfired on them badly.

How does it feel to be wrong? Both you and Mr Ozone employee were wrong,, lol. I think you owe me an apology, lol. This cue was in fact made with real woods (Rengas, and BEM), real points, and real veneers.

I had a pretty good feeling that I was right about this, and now I have proof, lol.
