DCC... UPDATE
- Thread starter garczar
- Start date
Another option could be using one ball/one pocket, and let em battle it out with first making it in their hole.
I forgot the naming of this game, but I know it's been in a competition all its own.

at 2 hours each player gets an inning (that should not take an hour)
after each player gets an inning they go to the 4 ball grady rule
until they hit 3 hours
if it did take one hour for the inning each at 2 hours
still at 3 hours the 3 hour rule would come in to effect
after each player got an inning ie 2 ball grady rule
at 4 hours the play stops and whoever is ahead in games and balls wins
if tied they play until someone makes a ball or someone fouls
The 'action room' is one of THE main reasons this event even exists. May not be a tournament but Greg was wanting to re-create the 'vibe' of JohnstonCity and that is for players to GAMBLE while there. If you didn't get to experience Derby during the ExecutiveWest days then you just don't really know the 'true' DerbyCityClassic.
Nah. Just look along the line. More to left or more to right? How could anyone ever spot a ball accurately on the line if what you say is true?
It helps to have a line drawn in either case. Do they?
The 500 player fields and all the “new” side tournaments effectively eliminated most DCC action.
I’d like to see 300 field caps, race to 7 in 9 ball, pro cut pockets, and the new 1 pocket rules.
I think the side action would return, and the event would be more enjoyable.
IMO
Whatever. Edge is faster.
DCC has always been edge of the ball. So has every single tournament I’ve ever played in on USA soil since my first tournament in 1994 or so.
What side events? Only one left i know of is the Bigfoot. The 14.1Challenge has been gone for years. 300 would be good i agree.The 500 player fields and all the “new” side tournaments effectively eliminated most DCC action.

All the pro nine ball tournaments are center of cue ball. 14.1 was always center of ball. The written rules of pool have always been center of ball. Of course, pool players don't read.
Agree. It's been written center of the ball for 40 years at least it seems. Just no tournament I ever played in was like that, nor gambling match. Mostly local level for me, some regional level.
i understand this is mainly directed at the Am in Pro-Am. but will they inforce these rules in a TV table match between two pros?
Good question. I was wondering the same.
Some more new info:
Banks max 475
One Hole max 400
9 ball max 500
Player must rebuy if 5th round? That is a strange one...
It looks to me the only changes to affect time management of the 9 days is in the one hole. The max fields I don't think will really come into play since they are so high anyway. I personally think it will still run way too long, because they didn't change anything about the 9 ball.
I don’t believe they would. But if you want to shorten the race, to take something away, there should be a little give and take.
There won’t be. I’m just saying. And you are right, they will still sell out.
The fifth round rebuy was there last year I know. I believe that is where you are in the money.
Didn’t they go back on pocket size also if so that could help
They've put a cap on the entries but the cap is too high, so basically they're trying to solve a square problem with a round solution.
