I’m just getting warmed up at 200.I think races to 200 would be a better way to see who’s best……..
Make it 200 non-stop.
Not enough. Needs to be 201.I’m just getting warmed up at 200.
Make it 200 non-stop.
Am I crazy for thinking any side bets made at the start should be nullified when the guys stopped and changed the game? It seems at that point you should be agreeing to say "I'm good" or lets put it into the final race to 40. Fresh start.
It wasn't typical... This was WAY more brutal than a typical race to 40 for the day. They both cared so much about it and Chang was just naturally a really slow player that play had slowed down so much... They went till almost 400 am local to me where typically they were ending before midnight. That's going to be hard on anyone. I don't blame them for wanting to wait till the next day to finish and I don't blame them for not wanting it to be a race to 5 the next day.

Then why not just play a race to 40 in the first place?
I don't understand why everyone here is so bum hurt. They decided like men to stop at 115 and then do another 40 the next day. They only are beholden to each other and their backers. Everyone else has an opinion and a belly button. Regardless if I bet or was just watching from interest I have nothing to say in the matter. The stream was free the next day and thus they kept up with their side of the transaction. Now anyone who had a bet with a spread or any bet for that matter has the right to work it out with the other party. Nobody else has a say.
From what I saw they fought like champions and after 3 LONG days decided they would rather fight tomorrow fresh. Now if everyone wants to put on their tin foil hats and conjure up some sort of grassy knoll grand cabal conspiracy well...it's your party. Do as you do.

This is pretty much how I see it. They are the players in this match and they are only beholden to each other and the backers.
I had a few different bets on this match. 3 bets that were even and 1 bet where I was taking Shane and laying 5 games. 120-115 would have been a push. I messaged everyone I was betting with what they wanted to do. No action? Extend the bet? First to 120? I gave them a few options. The people I was betting even with just extended the race and the person I was giving 5 games to called off the bet. I was happy with however they wanted to handle it. It ended up working out for me because I had Shane. What any person should have done is just communicate with they person they are betting with. It is real easy and solves most of the problems that people seem to have here.
Jealousy? Haters? Where? Just people with different views having a discussion. Pretty healthy if you ask me.

When you all get out of daycare...
200 no-count is the only true test for rotation games.
There are elements of truth to what you say, but it is a pretty short-sighted summary.Exactly!!!! The comments from lots of non-bettors - or haters - are so idiotic. Just pure jealousy and hatreds. Why do you care what happened between the bettors? It is NONE of your business. The "real" backers/bettors have an "understanding" that NONE of you would understand. "TheMarsMan" didn't have a problem of extending the race, and there were 3 other backers who had bigger pieces than him (and if you know anything about pool & gambling, you surely know JMars is pretty well known as a WHALE). LOL
If I were Mike Howerton or JerryF, I would change AZB and make everyone post with their real names, or link with FB Names. It would surely grow AZ Forums, imo. It would be really funny to see how everyone's behaviors changed - For The Better.
Gambling is the Main catalyst for pool to grow, just like poker - Poker would never be this big without gambling. Period. If you want to see pool grow, gambling will be the true power for it. If there's no gambling in professional pool, it would be 100000000% DEAD.
As a one off, yeah...what they do is a blip.
'Pool never fails to fail'. I read that somewhere
Did someone say that side betting on pool matches is a risky proposition?
Get out of here with your common sense and integrity!!
You shall forever be a solid member of the GAL.
If you bet on a race to 120 games and gave up 8.5, then at 112 it was over - regardless of where it went from that point IMHO. If you bet and agreed with the perspective above then you probably paid off - if you didn’t see it that way, then that’s between you and the person you bet with.
I had no bets on this match so my opinion isn’t worth the time it took me to type this at the end of the day. It’s up to the parties who had action on it to decide if they’re satisfied and act accordingly - which it looks like all did.
