Rebuttal by Johann Chua re Waxgate

Chua really has been a much needed breath of fresh air to pool over the last year or two.
Fun to watch, expresses passion and seems like an all round good egg.

The cue ball was definitely not reacting normally in the videos I saw. That being said, surely if there was a substance applied to the ball it would likely be there for subsequent matches either on the balls or transferred to the tables. So although it does look like something has nefarious occurred it does seem a little unfair to point fingers without direct proof of someone applying the substance.
Both are playing with the same cueball, whats the point of the discussion..?

Unfamiliarity. It only takes one contrived junction to irreparably alter the course of the tournament. For instance, one player on long odds getting by via a rigged match means a stronger player didn't - good news for someone down the line.

A concerning change in average tournament payouts.

The first day of play SAT. in a week end event is usually a minimum 16 hr day for a TD.
They finish up late, usually Sunday am.
Next day, which is already here you start late morning.
You finish usually around dark/or dinner time, or LATER.
There are two explanations for tournaments running so late. The room owner is squeezing food and drink money out of those present and wants the agony to continue as long as possible. Or, the TD is as stupid as a stump -- it's a main part of his job to finish at a reasonable hour.

TikTokker stealing YouTuber’s “Ron the Pool Student” short videos to post on TikTok

Karma gets them all in the end. None of the info was his original content anyway so how upset can he be? He took someone else's content and now thats being done to him. These guys on YouTube & Tik Tok aren't actual pool instructors & most cant beat thwir loval bartender in a race to 7. They just regurgitate other true instructors stuff who earned their steupes legitimately and flex like it's theirs. Fluffing up another person's thoughts with a nicer camera and cheap gizmos is still plagerism no matter how you wrap the gift!
