Favoritism in pool tournaments

I just want to say something to all of you who have been participating in this bull****! How do you people go to bed at night and look at yourselves in the mirror knowing you receive all this favoritism? I am not quite sure whether to name people at least at this time unless someone gets me pissed, but when I play in these tournaments I visualize these certain players wearing nothing but a large pair of diapers!

You guys should be ashamed of yourselves!

Huh???:confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:
 
Where are you going with this post? Hopefully people don't turn you red over it, so you prob need to name names.
 
It's rare that a post on AZB is so lacking in content.

While your choice to omit names is certainly reasonable, you have failed to give any examples of experiences you have had or observed that back up your statement. I am not saying your conclusion here is inaccurate (actually, I don't have the slightest idea whether it is or is not), but you have not offered any evidence of any kind for a very serious allegation that you have made.

This thread would seem a good candidate for deletion by the moderators.

I agree.........
 
I'm referring to the Tri-state tour! I've been playing there for around8-9 years and I'm sick of hearing and seeing what's going on. About 8 players I know already stopped playing there. A couple of them were thinking of coming back until some things happened recently and decided not to support the tournament until they saw changes.
 
Doesnt a cutie pie girl win a lot on that tour...is that what you are referring to? Be specific!
 
My guess would be its a regular poster thats started a different user name to hide behind.I cant say hes wrong because nobody knows what the hell he's talking about...:confused:Please dont be so vague in your statement and if you are hiding...GROW A PAIR.
Unless of course your a lady...then I take that back:grin:
 
lets just say it has to do with not reporting the correct match score results to the websites that report the matches in order to suppress their ratings in order to have a better chance to win. How much more specific do you want me to get without giving names telephone numbers and addresses?

I agree with this thread and favoritism in pool, but you've got to understand that we "the internet people" don't know what you're talking about unless you elaborate. More details.

No one knows who you are. Air it out, air the whole tour out. Here I'll give you some green to show you some support, lots of ppl already are getting screwed in Pool...don't be another person who stands by and lets others get screwed. I'm from Jersey and I don't like it. Back it up man and let it fly.

If you wanna bring things out in the open don't be afraid to shed the light.
 
When it comes to favoritism, I find it appalling when the tournament director can choose players handicaps. I think that is what he might be referring to. I hate it and truly despise it when this happens. I played strong for a few weeks and they bumped my handicap up two games. It doesn't help that I won a couple tournaments back to back, but even still. There should be some kind of points system that should accrue to determine what level you should play on.
 
This has been a problem for years now, all handicaped tourny's. Not just the tri-state tour, or Shannons tour(example only). That $hit is never gonna change. There always be favorites, unfortunately.
I feel like this....Don't like it, don't play. Pretty cut & dry.

Listen guys, I' m not the kind of guy that's afraid of things like this but you need to have some control on exposing people and getting them hurt. If neccessary it will come at the right time.

And c'mon guys read between the lines.... You mean to tell me you dont know which states are included in the Tri-state tour.....PLEASE
 
I agree...That's why, despite the handicap, I still play balls to the wall and overcome the challenges.

@ OP: I believe you must have recently been screwed over by someone's lack of publicity it seems. Take it with a grain of salt. It's just one of those things that you will have to overcome. Just beat the challenge, no matter how unfair it seems.
