Just seems weird to interject into a conversation on a specific topic where a bunch of people obviously care and are giving their opinions and be like “my contribution is that I don’t care”. Like uh, cool, thanks man. What’s your point here? Go hit some balls or something

Why are you wasting your time posting if you don’t care? Could’ve saved yourself some valuable time

Somebody said this already maybe jbart but I think they need USA needs to shut up and take it seriously if they want to win. Let Europe do the shit talking at the press conferences etc. I think they’re too focused on “we need to thrive in this environment”. Just play real pool don’t play into...

Brutal watch. Sad I payed $10 😢. If I had lost 15 out of the last 18 times I’d at least ask for the wild 8. They’re just in a bad game that’s all…

Do you like your chances better playing Shane a race to 9 (aka race to 9 via races to 1) or race to 11 via races to 5?

Time sensetive? It’s a race to 11 sets over several days. Way more definitive than any finals race you will ever see by a long shot. Simple math

That’s like saying a finals is 13 races to 1 so it’s a crap shoot because races to 1 are a crap shoot. It’s the totality that shows the edge. Europe has not won 15 of 18 years on a coin flip.

So you think a race to 13 is long enough to determine a winner but races to 5, first to 11 sets is too short? lol. A small advantage multiplies exponentially each set you play, same as games in a long race.

Here we go again!

Race to 5 for 500!? You guys are fuggin gambling I love it

Agreed

Meh. I would love to see my man Oscar out there again. Doesn’t play as full time as Billy but he’s in big action when he does play and he’s very good in the pressure cooker. Also he’s just about the classiest guy in the pool world. The sad truth is the US just can’t field 5 world class players...

Been playing well lately so decided to do a ghost session on the toughest table in the room. My plan was to play for 2 hours but I got so frustrated not being able to give myself a good rack I quit after about 30 minutes. End score was 4-7 so I basically lost a race to 7. On a positive note...

It’s not well layed out, but I think the claim is players of equal Fargo ratings that play on different size tables are not truly equal. A claim I’m sure you’ve disputed with evidence. Personally, as someone who has gotten nearly 100% of their rating playing on 9’ tables, I do feel a slight...

Yeah but what if there’s only like 1 or 2 tight tables you want to play on. I feel this pain
