    I will provide in exact example. 600 plays a 500 in a race to 5 tournament. Fair match race is 6-4. The probability of winning in a 600 vs 500 is 2 to 1. So if the 600 wins the match on a hill hill then the score is 6 to 3. Exactly as expected. If the 500 does not make the hill, then the 600...

    I will use myself as an example. About 5 months ago I discovered something in my preshot routine. I changed it and since then I've been playing about 70 points higher than I was playing before. And my fargo has been climinig up to the right. About 25 points in the last 175 games.

    I play in that tournament every year and I know many of the players. One tournament doesn't define a handicap. And if you run that event bracket twice no way that guys wins again. Stuff happens

    Yapp’s Controversial Tournament-Winning Shot in the 8-Ball World Championship … Was it a Foul?

    If it was a bad hit why is the cue ball spinning to the right? I would expect cue induced cue ball spin if he hit the solid first.

    Is our team 8 ball BCA / FargoRate handicap system typical / reasonable?

    Fargo Rate uses only the win/loss of indivdual games. It knows nothing, and cares nothing about what handicap is used.
