hows the crowd?

Pretty into it. Not insane but active. Definitely different energy for a good pinoy shot vs ralf or earl

I just noticed it's Andy cloth. I played a WNT satellite tournament where Andy had donated a batch to the TD and he had it installed on half the tables. The other half were 760, which was the normal cloth for this room. Tables were GC3's. Both cloths were installed by the same mechanic a few days before the tournament. The Andy cloth was faster than the 760.

You need 760 at least in your wet basement, not the 860 you've always had. Plus, a dehumidifier or AC unit to run all the time, not only when you play. A heater under the table will will also help.

Ita also air conditioned in the mall on top of the Andy cloth...

What are they even playing for? They should have made it a points based game or something. Where all four compete on a leaderboard. Not sure I can be bothered to pay attention anymore.

seems like lots more fun than watching filler or gorst run balls and never smile or say anything.

it's hilarious you even find an actual nostalgic event that should be right up your alley, but still use the thread to bemoan contemporary players

and filler is a poor example too

Strickland defeated Bustamante 11-6. Just too many missed shots by Busty. No B&Rs in the match.

What kind of exciting things would you be doing with Efren and Earl besides playing pool? Being a pool fan and finding Filler and Gorst to be boring is wild. There are definitely some boring pros, but I don't think those 2 fit the category.

Some boring players to me are Robbie Capito, Towelito, Albin, Kazakis, Lechner, Styer, etc.

I will admit, I have never watched a full match with Wojciech Szewczyk or Wiktor Zielinski. It's not because I think they're boring, I've just never seen anything exciting or compelling from them on the table.

cool that earl won, i figured bustie and ralf to be favorites.

Earl keeps posting 100+ straight pool posts so I think he is playing good. As ever with him, he isn’t playing against anybody else in a match, it’s always himself he is trying to beat! Pleased for him as well. Not sure the ages of them all but Effren looks the most fragile

Effren is 71
Bustamente 62
Strickland is 64 and
Souquet is 57
