I liked to see the different matches instead of just 9ball or 10ball. Am I alone in this thought or is the Bad Blood format something that cam be more entertaining for viewers if they can get the live stream right of course? I just saw another thread where they were commenting on the Bad Blood Format, I guess it has a name now but whats everyone else thoughts?
Bad Blood format like or no?

I haven't read the other threads that you reference but the format is very close to the "all around" matches that TAR has done which showcases 3 different disciplines. I enjoy the all around / bad blood formats.
The only thing I would have like to see change from the format this past weekend is longer races, especially on the 8 ball & 10 ball. The race to 200 in the 14.1 was fine but I would have liked to have seen maybe a race to 20 instead of 10 on the other two matches.
At the last min the players came to me with a slight revision to the format. Origionally it was a point per rack and 1 point for every 10 points in the 14.1.
They suggested that the 8-Ball be worth 1pt and the 10-Ball be worth 1pt and the 14.1 be worth 2 points. In the event of a tie we would go to a race to 5 9-Ball for the tie breaker.
How would it have come out the other way? Earl would still have won.

I liked it a lot. I've toyed with the idea of playing a 2 day money game which incorporates 7-ball, 8-ball, 10-ball, Rotation (first to 61 points wins), 9-ball banks, One Pocket and Straight Pool (Race to 100 points).
I'm the opposite end of the playing spectrum to the pros though lol, and most people at my level will either play just 9/10-ball or play English 8ball on 9 footer
Definitely need to see more multi-discipline games, because it's a true test of a players ability to adapt and gives the spectators something different as well. 10-ball is definitely the best rotation game for money, at least in my opinion
