Would you think Randy was stealing vs Corey same game? What about Donny same game?

It’s Donny Mills. If the other team did not explicitly state yes or no to pattern racking, then they deserve to lose.

Ps I have not seen any reliable info to this question and I also asked it here as soon as the match was announced.

Thanks. I bet on the match assuming it is allowed. I’ll be rethinking if it’s not.

I've seen local sharpshooters (probably 700-720 range Fargo) give the wild 5 and break, or 5, 7 and breaks, or the 5-out (no breaks) and demolish B players on 9' GC's. I'm surprised Siming did not win all 3 sets if their rating difference is that much. IMO:)

If her opponent got blanked one of the sets, getting a money ball plus the breaks on the barbox, that means he did not run out once that entire set. He can't be more than a middle B speed if that's the case IMO.

The matches were on a barbox. A gorilla break and the wild 7 is a pretty big spot.

Not between a top tier pro and a B player. On set two the opponent did not win one single game of 9 ball getting the breaks and the 7. To me that means this particular player is not above a B speed.

I’ve seen Busty beat Eddie Abraham 20 years ago giving him the 5 and breaks for the cash on a 9’ GC. Top pros can give tons and tons of weight.

You keep saying "on a 9 foot GC"

Those extra couple of feet make a big difference. Typically, if the guy didn't run out to the 7, Siming won the rack. It's just a tough spot to beat.

She would have won if she could kick at all. She missed so many routine kicks and safes that set it was ridiculous.
 
During the practice chat Roy said something about how he shouldn't have put her in those matches on the barbox. It was all on him and it cost him 2K.
 
Somebody should be teaching her the diamond system NOW- I think Melling uses it or maybe some other system. He most definitely is not a 'feel kicker' and he kicks very well.

She missed balls and shape numerous times it wasn't just her bad kicking and safe play really she didn't play any better than they did ,, except got the one 9 ball set and I'm not so sure I believe what I was watching that set ,
