My Fargorate progression

He took 30 years off pool and just came back about 6 months ago. My thought process was either:

-He used to be pretty good and is still super rusty
-He's hustling
-His backpocket 9 ball game is legit way way way stronger than his normal game
-He just got lucky and was playing over his head

After playing 4 sessions, I'm still not sure. I'm actually super excited to play him, specifically to answer this question for myself. That's why I won't quit him. Nothing to do with the money either direction. I want to know this answer:)

My Fargorate progression

I won 7-3. A buddy gave me some moving tips and they came into play immediately.
My backpocket record with this opponent is now:
Lose 6 games (50 per game) = -300
Lose 6-7 R7 for 300 = -600
Win 7-5 R7 for 300 = -300
Win 7-3 R7 for 300 = 0

It feels good to play it again after about 25 years and definitely more overall skill and knowledge about pool since then.
Are you playing even?
