Oscar vs. Schmidt 10 ahead one pocket, streaming

[jasonlaus]

Absolutely

Was great action, they delivered and it ended peacefully. That’s great action. No Bullshit, no dump, nothing funny. Pure action played as pool should be played.

I respect that 100%

Oscar is a huge advocate of the traditional ball colors. I’ll quote him “I don’t care about the color of the cloth, but never fuck with the colors of the balls-ever”. He said that to me in Griffs about a couple years ago.

All the best,
Fatboy

Happy new year!

2 respectful gladiators with a ton of heart! Great to see John playing his favorite game, hopefully much more to come. Oscar with those straight backs was nuts. I'd like to see either one spend a month with Tom Wirth to see the difference.

Either way, great entertainment for 3 days and respect to both.

I hope we see more action like that in the future/ it’s better than those paywall, where’s the $ at? Matches with the hype. Organic action in a pool room, is what I respect

I hate to be an @$$, but let the players play the games they want. If you want to watch 1,35,7,9hrs per day, let em. I work nightshift (8:30pm till 8am) most days during outage and I pay, and just pick up what I can. I don't ever complain they play on a different schedule than I do, I just pay and watch what I can.

shit, I wanna watch Fedor, Filler, Shane, Shaw, 2 ko's, FSR, and Albin play races to 150 9 ball every week, or at least monthly. Add Chang JL, Dennis, and another 10 to 20 trying to qualify every month and we have serious fans and serious bad guys.

If we don't define who the best are, and put them in the forefront we have no game.

It's easy for MR to create interest once we can show the difference between the games - listen, we can show different skills, once skills are established. But we have to have a baseline, and that baseline can provide true skill, which can be judged or not judged. Time will tell

With my blathering, would anybody want to see 30th place? 25th place? Or should we narrow it down to 16th and under?

Nobody cares about anybody but the stars!

We narrow it down to 16 to 25ish players we have to know and when somebody is new, we have all their stats, including gambling, especially against the top 30 ish

I just want to sweat real action.

Not staged prop bullshit games

 

[straightline]

Sure, let's reinvent one pocket cause you want a game to take forever. Wtf is wrong with you people???

Tell you what, you back both the players ,or just one and you can try to set whatever terms you want.

Why the hell do all of you try to tell the people who are playing and gambling to play the way YOU want to??? Absolute insanity.

Well you know dem dinosaurs...

I'm not the one suggested 10 ahead. If you want the A workout, you can play last ball to as many hundred points as you can stand for as many scores of thousands it takes to confirm your existence.

You're better off going to your local pool room and watching 2 amateur players match up if you want to sweat some real action.

Way too much funny business going on in these streamed "$$$ Big Money Matches $$$"

I agree 100%

Thing is in LA these days pool action is pretty scarce unless watching $20 & $50 1P is your thing. Sad.

that would be high $$$ action around here

there are about 10+- peeps that can play and all but a couple avoid each other like they are stricken with the plague

Not to derail this, but $20 to $50 one pocket isn't bad action.
We have grown so accustom to $10k, $100k, etc. matches, that we forget the daily $500 scores.

Any action is better than no action. In LA $20 will get you a coffee and a muffin.

Happy new year

Playing for the time in LA you have to post the stake these days. Can’t play for the time on the cuff.
