Impossible no. Unfeasable yes. It requires human labor on each and every match. It's just never going to happen. There is no budget (or desire) for that in pool. A ref is not feasable per table. Even a timekeeper is not feasible per table. Recording shots/innings/misses/safety attempts to...

Dr Dave still wears those little glasses. Anthony finally got rid of them a year or so ago and got real pool glasses. hahaha.

I really thought it was a pick-em (and so must have a LOT of other ppl considering the bet amount). Anthony is murdering Shane though. Its not even close.

yes, I understand FR is relative, and TPA is absolute. However, FR is automatically calculated. A single match, or an entire tournament performance says: "this player showed up and did way better than his normal". It's good and useful info. Because it's so easy to obtain, it is actually used...

I'm losing faith in the FargoRate in the amateur ranks. I now agree with others that many people are entering bs leagues to keep their rating low, then do well in high entry events. I just looked through the player list on the digital pool bracket from the $1000 entry 578 I played in last year...

Also, now with FargoRate, I think it is more useful. It shows how much a player over or under performed their rating, relative to their opponent. It also requires zero work by anyone. TPA requires someone to watch and log every single shot.

No one is as anal as Pat. No other streamer will be keeping stats. MR is the only other one I know of that does it (their own formula), and their formula doesn't even make sense half the time.

I wonder if TPA is dead. Pat sold Accu-stats. After the sale, Pat was only filming I believe 2 tournaments. One was the DCC, second was the International Open. If DCC filming by Pat is dead, that leaves one tournament per year with a TPA.

yes, 10-0, it was live.

I hate to say this, but Anthony looks like he has no talent, and somehow became a really good player. Gives ME hope for my own game! hahaha

HA! I think when I read it and hit the reply button, it was only asking if the match was on and if anyone had a link. Now I come back to post that Anthony won 30-20, and that HE should be on the next Mosconi Cup! hahaha. He shoots slow though, would be tough to handle the clock.

YouTube. Free stream.

One more feedback (I added it to my prior post): -No instant replay so when the commentators say "Did you see how awesome that shot was", the prod crew does not show it again.

I had no issues. I did have an account from a prior match a couple years ago, and it remembered me.

Schmidt had a few funny lines, one was something like: (me paraphrasing): If all my FB friends practiced pool instead of claiming how good they are on FB, they might actually be good.
