yea good point with the 10-ball, but i was trying to stay within the thread topic parameters. you know what i mean with the qatar warehouse era vs the world championship now. there are way more eyes on it, more prize money, and the MR big major stage creates huge pressure (don't know why, but i love that it does).

Yeah, point well taken. Agreed to some extent.

It hurt not having a World 9ball this year. Still, as the year's premier event in 2026, the US Open 9ball was fantastic, and gave us one of the best final matches we've ever seen. Of course, FSR has probably spent the $100,000 first prize by now, LOL.

looks like WC won't happen this year. i know they're moving away from saudi but not when that change would be in effect. riyadh airport was bombed yesterday, so hopefully it won't be in saudi again

Buddy won more tournaments than anyone else! By far. Both big and small tables! That's a fact Jack!

I made my list based on their records during their lifetime and didn't try to make comparisons across different generations. No one today stands out as equally dominant as my picks from their era. Yes, there are far more good players today, but only a few (Shane then Filler) that really stand above the rest.

If you want to compare tournament resumes then Dennis won many more than anyone else over a 15 year period. Like Buddy he won on big and small tables at ALL games. By far the best tournament player of his recent era!

P.S. I saw these guys play! If Worst had lived another ten to fifteen years he would have dominated the pool world. If he was playing now I would still pick him to be a winner. He had qualities that none of the current champions possess. Worst was truly unique!

Nice post, Jay. Harold Worst was before my time and the only game I ever saw Lassiter play was 14.1. I'm unqualified to measure them against other all-time greats. Still, I know of Lassiter's track record at Johnston City and realize in full that it puts him among the all-time greats. Thanks for making me feel young --- it's a good feeling!
