During the finals of the Seattle Open, Skyler Woodward was very vocally upset about the ref constantly putting the two ball in the back for his opponent. Basically, he was implying that the two in the back is an advantage for the breaker. I was surprised to hear this but I'm obviously not going...

Even the Predator Pro Billiard Series events aren't standardized. The championship events, e.g. the World 10 Ball Championship, spot early 10 balls whereas the regular events, e.g. the Las Vegas Open, count them as wins.

I don't see how anybody says this isn't one of the worst rolls of all time. A ball literally moves off of the table in the middle of the shot, giving the opponent ball in hand on the money ball. It simply doesn't get worse than that. Balls settling and leading to a miss? The cue ball rolling...

I wore a white dress shirt to the US Open and the head ref came over and told me "no shirts". I thought he was joking and replied "oh that'll be extra for me to take it off 😉" Turns out he was dead serious and no button up shirts were allowed. I had to switch to a polo. I later got another...

Price drop! Now just $600, a great deal for a brand new Carolina Custom.

That's how hard he fought - he had us all believing that he could beat this thing. His final months of life were every bit as inspirational as his tournament wins and championships.

Isn't that just one of her main weaknesses though?

Yes, but both you and I know that there are too many people on this forum that lose their minds the second they see the words "calculate" or "probability". I figured gathering some real world data would be helpful.

A lot of unsubstantiated claims have been getting thrown around regarding Predator's set format for the World 10-ball Championship, so I decided to take a look at the actual data and find out the truth. The first claim I wanted to tackle: the set format leads to a lot more upsets than a single...

That's quite an overreaction. They're only 40 Fargo points apart, which by definition means Duong wins a medium length race 20-30% of the time. Filler has been playing at an 870+ level this year based simply on his tournament performances.

Obviously unplayed. Exactly 30" from the black pad under the tip to the end of the shaft. Weighs 4.1oz. Still has the Predator sticker on it but it DOES NOT come with the "V" decal. I can confirm it is a Vantage partial and you can see the tip size in the photos. Has the tiniest of roll in the...

Oh, I forgot to mention a very relevant anecdote from my time at the 2023 US Open: I hit the gym at the hotel in the evening of Day 1 and guess who walks in? The three Ko brothers and later, Konrad Juszczyszyn. They weren't doing just cardio either, they were all lifting weights, like bench...

Very impressive, congratulations on your fitness journey
