107 Breaks & 6 Chances

You're missing a trick. On the first TAR match between Alex and Shane (race to 100, they might have had a couple shorter ones before then), Shane was KILLING Alex. Alex kept getting kisses or weird shit on the break, not leaving him a shot. While Shane was breaking, he'd stand behind him without him knowing, and watch what he was doing. Shane was jumping the CB so when the 2 corner balls went 4 rails around they would pass under the airborne CB, and not kiss.

Well, Alex learned that, and went on to have an Efren vs Earl COM comeback.

Fargo Rate - Not Much Math Here

Do you have stats on how “reliable” early results tend to be compared to established ratings? Like how 100 robustness for John Doe compares to 500 or 1000?

I’ve seen some examples of local people who were off by 50 or more points based on early results (and settle up or down to the correct level with more games), although by and large most seem to be about right (like maybe within 10 or 20 points of where they end up).

I also wonder whether the reliability of the low robustness results also can be influenced by low robustness of opponents.
Here is mine, just a sample size of 1. I kept track myself and made the graph. First picture is from 0 to 203 robustness. Second picture is from 0 to 1800 robustness (today).

107 Breaks & 6 Chances

You guys think this shit's bad now just wait til he gets his new table. He still won't make a ball on that D'mond.

Making a ball has never really been the problem.

It's getting a good look at the lowest numbered ball and having a runnable spread. I just never seem to get a good look and have a decent spread that I can run. Maybe Efren in his prime might be able to get out once in a great while with my spreads.

The table is jinxed. The pool spirits must be against me.

Fargo Rate - Not Much Math Here

To the extent they have about 100 games, the preliminary ratings with starter-rating influence would be about halfway between the black and blue lines.

New Pool App

This is a call to anyone who runs tournaments, looking for action, or wants to join a league. I am in the early stages of testing a new pool app (CueLogic) but I need alpha testers.

Do you have an android device?
Do you think analytically?
Can you provide feedback and criticism?
Do you know what's wrong with pool?

Then I want you to be an alpha tester. Here is the link, but it will NOT work for you until I add you to the alpha test group on the google play store. https://play.google.com/apps/testing/info.cuelogic.app. PM me your email address and I will get you added ASAParoony.


What does the app do? Why I am sure glad you asked. The app helps you find tournaments, actions, leagues, and compare players. Additionally, the CueLogic app is a complete tournament management tool superior to DigitalPool. There is a robust backend that is superior to Fargo, and finally, CueLogic is a tool to help league players determine who best to throw against the other league team.
