Evidence: How often do CHAMPIONS come out of league play ? Hardly any. How many come from money players or open class tournament play ( the desire to win $ ) ? MOST of them. Serious pool rooms and serious action cultivate serious play. They bring out your inner champion when you come up around...

MANY champion players were left out and MANY undeserving players were included, leaving a sour taste in the mouths of the pool world. But it was great if you were included !

He was at a tournament in Atlanta this weekend

I once beat a guy 9-0 at a tournament in two innings. He was , at the time, on the cover of 2 major pool mags. On the last day of the tournament he beat me 7-2 on the one loss side and went on to win it all. When the article came out in the magazine it listed the players he had wins over and "a...

upside down chalk is a big no no. Rails get gritty and filthy. Sometimes placing chalk upside down can cause small pieces to break off and cause a ball to roll off at the worst possible time. This is usually a beginner thing, yet I have seen, on rare occasion, a really experienced player do it !

anyone have a list of the top finishers and payouts ?

$1000 GUARANTEED added would get 3 more that I know of. It's hard to commit to the travel if it's based on 64. u might get 58 or 45, then not add it. Happens all the time.

Make no mistake about it, Klatt is a champion. All pros are champions, but Mika is just a superstar. "Pro" is simply a measure of ability. You have lower level and middle-class pros. Mika is a TOP SHELF pro.

Who's doin' what ? :confused:

mikeyfrost nailed it. when u lose to a plyr who punishes u for those mistakes th e errors are more memorable, they stand out. if u win the match, u tend to forget all the mistakes.

I just threw up in my mouth a little bi ...a lot

Great to hear, Glen. That's what Ilike about Diamond - always looking (and willing ) to improve.

Artemis may RETAIN bounce for a long time, it's just the WRONG bounce. Many "natural" , common kicks and banks have been about the same forever require second-guessing and adjustment with Artemis due to their problem of shortened rebound angle. Maybe the rubber compound just needs tweaking...

This has been discussed on here occasionally before. The rubber they use is known to play a bit too springy as well as shorten the rebound angle of balls coming off the rails. Now that these tables are everywhere, some people think this is normal. It is a fundamental change to how balls move on...

Chris, you're the only "KNOWN" name on the list ! Always stealin'. :D
