Ok I suck at 8 ball but I would roll the 13 in the bottom side pocket with just enough speed to clear the 3. Then pocket the 15 and let the cue ball go across table and shoot the 11 in the same pocket as the 15. The 11 is almost center table so playing position on that side of the 11 is as easy...

I suck at golf and pool. That makes me a professional sucker at both. I heard that J. Brumback was a very good golfer back in the day. I heard he was ok at pool to.

Everybody is always trying to fix 9 ball. Why? It doesn’t matter how you rack the balls or what break rules you put into effect. The players that are winning these events are the elite players in the world. Changing all the rules isnt going to change a thing. They will still win because they are...

Maybe if I live long enough somebody will say that about me. Only comment I get is “ you sure do try to bank a lot of straight in shots” 🤷‍♂️

I can understand that. I’ve never played in a Fargo tournament where I’ve played up to my ability. The last one I played in I hadn’t practiced in 3 months and both sets I lost were to a 725 player who ended up winning the tournament. In those sets I could have played better, I’m not saying I...

The funny thing is I’ve played a lot of golf and I have no clue about golf handicaps. Me and my son just always played together. Now I only play 2-3 times a year but back when I played a lot I usually scored in the low to mid 80s, my best was a 75 on a par 72 course. When it comes to pool I’m...

I rarely ever play in a Fargo event either. Like I said earlier I have nothing to prove. Im just a banger with only 150 games and a 630 rating in the system over the last 4-5 years. Almost every tournament I play in has players with ratings from 650 to 730. I know how I compare to those players...

How many times have we seen people on here say they play better than what their Fargo reflects and everybody on here makes fun of them and says they think they play better than what they actually do? I played in a Fargo tournament a couple weeks ago and my Fargo went up 30 points and I played...

Wouldn’t playing races to 2-3 have about the same effect? Even if you play 700 speed you’re not going to beat 600 speed players 3-0 every time. So if you beat a 600 speed player 3-1 or 3-2 it doesn’t look like you played your normal speed. Where as if it was a race to 7 or 9 a player might turn...

I don’t think my rating would be 700 if it was accurate but probably around 670-680. Just going by what other peoples rating are that I play with. Yes I’ve been barred from several tournaments. Everything is handicapped now. No such thing as a play even tournament unless it’s a race to 2-3...

I’m not really much of a gambler I just play some people mainly for the practice. I actually played in a Fargo tournament there a few years ago and it was probably one of worst performances ever that’s why I’m in the banger category now. I think I won one set.

I played him once in a tournament and lost hill hill it was before any had even heard of him

Yes I’m not a Fargo hater by any means, nor am I a huge fan. Even if my rating was right what is the benefit of one? Having a rating between 650-700 just puts you the middle of thousands of no body pool players. If my rating were to actually get to 700 I’d still be a nobody. I can drive 50...

He has almost 700 games in the system

No I’m just stating how we play and that his rating is 30 points higher than mine

In the area where I live there is a guy that I give the 7 playing 9 ball. His rating is 30 points higher than mine.

I have only played him in tournaments

I saw one of your posts a while back about playing Joey. Did you guys ever play.

In my area every tournament is handicapped anymore. There’s a couple race to 2 tournaments where you can play even.

Cues are made of wood. A Merry Widow has no decoration other than the wood. Since I like wood they are my favorite IMO they are some of the best looking cues made. I understand the craftsmanship and attention to detail in cues with points and inlays. I think I own one of the nicest Merry...
