I agree they need to react to the schedule. The one pocket finals slipping into Saturday had significant impact to the 9 ball rounds 7-10 with Tony's run. I have read your proposal and the committee was not open to it. Do you think there would be an appetite for splitting the first 4 rounds...

I watched the entire last 24 hours of the 9-ball tournament, and it was very obvious that Fedor has already reached that point. At about 10:30 in the morning (Saturday) I took a picture that had Filler, Gorst, and Van Boening playing in adjacent tables. It was a sentimental moment to have the...

Thank you - yes it’s unfortunate. I’ve watched the Bigfoot from home for years, and attend the final two days in person - can’t sacrifice the time to go both weekends. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ll try to explain, each round is a single elimination round drawn at random. If there is an odd number of players entering that round, one person (and only one person) will get a bye. At the end of the match you are eliminated from the tournament unless it is your first loss. At that point...

One of the best analogies I’ve ever given to make the importance of a pause in the back swing important is comparing the stroke to an automobile transmission. When changing directions, we stop a vehicle to shift from reverse to forward (and visa versa). If we do not allow the vehicle to come...

I’m not sure what crowd you saw, but I was in the stands and we all stood to applaud one of three almost flawless performances today. Filler started it out with a 9-2 match against SVB, where Shane only missed one shot and had one dry break. Then we watched Aranas virtually repeat the...

FWIW the master of the table leader board keeps a pretty good live list of who is left in the event. It doesn’t tell who has their rebuy left unfortunately. Sent from my iPhone using AzBilliards Forums

My pleasure - Simonis is expensive to buy and have installed. Keep chalk (an abrasive by design) out of the cloth helps increase its life and its more fun to play on clean equipment.

Oh the fun debates on instructors and their ability levels... There is some truth to the questions about instructors and their skill level. I believe there is more the question of their competency. I am guessing that any of the famous instructors already have a resume of competency otherwise...

I have been away from AZ for a while, working on projects around my house when not at work. That being said, this post hits home. I like the Tor Lowry Videos because he going into pattern play and various "in front of the ball" things that players need to learn somehow. His focus on...

I am fairly particular with my table - so here is my recipe. 1) Make sure you cover your table whenever its not being used. [Daily; takes 3 minutes] 2) Use a brushless vacuum, I use a small rechargeable dirt devil [Weekly; takes 5 minutes] 3) Use the X-1 Simonis cleaner after vacuum, which...

John, tried to send you a pm on a new case order. Let me know when you clear your messages :) Sent from my iPhone using AzBilliards Forums

I am going to attempt to use a few examples to clarify the differing opinions of how much time should be spent practicing. I have read many references to 8 hour practice session so I am going to use that as the base line of my examples. Example 1: Working on improving lag speed Take a ball and...
