Yes, big table skills translate easily to the barboxes, except in the Northeast, where there are, pretty much, no bar table tournaments for pros. Barbox skills, however, only sometimes translate to the big tables.

Agree 100%.
After SVB, Rodney Morris and Mike Dechaine are, perhaps, 2A and 2B in the American pecking order for rotation games. On my list, I put Mike #2 and Rodney #3 but it's that close.
I was impressed with Sky's play in the 2015 Derby City 9-ball event, in which he finished ninth in a field of about 400 on the big tables.
Great stuff. Keep it up
If we base on past performances , I would take your list
I would also take sjm and Atlarge lists. Simply cos you guys mentioned facts and stats
I would gjve some weight not much prizemoney lists cos it is incomplete and numbers are skewed especially in those one to one matches where each player puts up same amount and his own money is included in the prizemoney
Most other lists by others here are just subjective personal opinions or rooting for their own boys or pulling rabbits out of hats not supported by facts and stats
Ok I better get meself a bullet proof vest :grin:
Was a good thread first two pages and then the rubbish began
Now we got frost daulton Bartram Moore Hennessee shuff in the mix
I mean come on most the guys on common lists haven't won a major trophy
EU can field almost full list of world champions
To get close we need to elininate the glamorous short stops such as above mentioned

If they were to gamble the way you have yours in order
I would give you plenty of action .
You make me curious Bartram, what would your list look like? It seems like you would have to be more qualified than most folks on this thread when it comes to ranking the top players.
Yes we don't have much for you this year Chris: Bigfoot Challenge and Music City is all... Overall though, we have 1819 games that you played against many opponents... and these games have diminishing importance to you rating the older they are
Yes, sir. A lot of work.
Some publicized gambling matches are in there, but it's mostly tournament matches ---for you, lots of US Opens (9-ball, 10-ball, 8-ball...), Hard Times, Ultimate 10-ball, Carolina Open, Texas Open, Seminole, Southern Classic, etc...
It considers how you did against every opponent,
how each of those opponents did against each of their opponents,
how the opponent's opponents did...
and everything is coupled together in an optimal way... every day.
think chess ratings on steroids...
Your system seems damn good -Interesting too- do you have a site i can visit to see the whole shebang?

Mike has more info than this that he can give but here is a start for you http://www.fargobilliards.com/pool-tournaments/fargo-ratings/. On the local level I have the third most games 4441 ( just 8 ball). He has well over a million games from players all over the world in the system. That is a huge spiderweb of games.
Last time I talked to Jesse he isn't playing as much

There are not to many people going to Florida looking for Donnie Mills. Also not many people in the USA get up to play Shane, not matter what the rack rules are. He may not get around the USA and play in many tournaments. But, that does not take away the fact that he would shoot holes threw several people on these lists if they where playing rotation pool for money. What other americans have beat Warren Kiamco even for the cash besides maybe the top 3 or 4 players. I know he knows how to rack the balls, but you still have to run out. What he finish 3rd in the US Open one year?
It was never said list was of top 10 cash players or top 10 Tournament players. With that being said.
Donnie Mills would have to be on my top 10 List.
