    The most useless yet highly discussed stat in pool

    Let me start off by saying I’m not hating. I actually really like John Schmidt and his game. I think the stats he has in straight pool, although no doubt legit, are seriously overrated. I’m sure there’s been tons of great players who have put unheard of nine ball packages together in their...

    This years US Open 9 ball is has the strongest field ever assembled in history

    About comparing player present and past. I liken it to say weightlifting just to give a crude example. Maybe a weightlifter in the 80’s hit 500 kilos. He won by lifting that amount of weight, and the way things work, he sort of knew he had to lift that amount to win so he trained targeting...

    both players in their prime years, which would be your dream match?

    This is easy for me, efren vs Ronnie one pocket. I think it would be a lot closer than people think too because I swear to god modern day pool players turned into little girls when they played efren. I know he was playing good but that doesn’t change the fact that I saw many turn into little...

    Oscar in big $$$ in Akron Oh

    If you’re actually a pool player every goddamn thing in life practically would be an expense, from gas to hotels to gambling losses, to table time. They’d probably owe next to nothing if they actually added up the expenses right.

    Should pros be allowed to rob amateur events?

    One of the biggest problems there’s no way to ever get around is the people who are going to gain by getting the better players out are always such passionate and persuasive aholes. It’s just one set of good players being replace by another. It’s all relative. That’s why I think it’s gotta be...

    Should pros be allowed to rob amateur events?

    The definition of a pro should be something along the lines that he or she makes a reasonable wage per year, say 40k or so. So yes, most all players should be able to rob tournaments. If not the good player is the one getting robbed.

    Cheating on the 8 ball rack

    You didn’t get robbed or cheated. But, even if you did, they deserved it. It would be like if you figured out Vegas... you’d deserve a little cash, wouldn’t you?

    Serious question--- how does backing players make sense financially?!?!

    I dont know if anyone brought it up, but I agree. Like for this recent match if you wanna be in action why not just spread around a few, or as many as you can get your hands on, bets.

    Did YouTube relax its background music bans on pool videos?

    Metallica is probably making money from you the way they have it set up now. In other words, you just became a Metallica employee, earning $0.00 per hour.

    Serious question--- how does backing players make sense financially?!?!

    Poor first backer. I wonder if the same backer would have put up for the second set, if he woulda had to pay Dennis. Maybe that’s why Denise found another backer for the second set.

    Chohan V Orcollo October 5 –8

    It’s fine to say, “she’ll do ok”, but it still sort of glosses over the fact that she is being used as a marketing tool to get people in the door for the owner. She’s a waitress, she’s not responsible for getting people in the door, and if she is, she needs to be paid accordingly (not just in...

    Chohan V Orcollo October 5 –8

    In my opinion what keeps him from winning if he loses is trying too hard and trying to force things mentally, which he did the first time and still almost won. He needs to get in there and just let the ability and choices flow out of him more, and have a bit more fun like the guys in apocalypse...

    Chohan V Orcollo October 5 –8

    Do people get paid extra to do stuff like this, or do they just get to keep their job. Serious question. I see ads on fb all the time now with hot waitresses and it seems like the owner should be paying them for that. Let’s just say for the sake of argument that a pic of a hot waitress circling...
