Yeah he beat the guy from my area in semifinals. I told LO to appeal. Anything over 730 is almost for sure “pro level”. I made it to Vegas. Plane trip gave me vertigo. First day I thought it was anxiety not vertigo. I still played great. won first 2 8 ball matches in the 7 bracket 5-0 and 5-1...

Here’s what I do when I get into a funk…. Sometimes rather than playing your opponent, get some practice in……. Drag out a few racks to practice your safes. Take advantage of the shots you see that you don’t normally take by taking them. Sounds to me like you’re just losing a bit of interest...

Good luck!

I don’t care much for APA. Won 8 and 9 ball regionals. Gave away the 9 ball spot to 2nd place not realizing he will get free $$$s out there because he was already going for 9 ball doubles. Should’ve charged him something. Still haven’t bought a plane ticket for 8 ball. I did get these nifty...

That’s what I always get. Something was off. Looks like OP diagram had it backwards originally.

There are just too many variables. I actually kick better than most(at the hall I frequent). It’s just that kicking to make a ball is one thing. But you might be kicking a ball to safety or like i said without specifying choosing a different route for shape on next ball

I like this outlook. And how Bob said by 3rd rail will pick up running. Once you play enough sometimes you want to put outside or something other than running on Cb Because you are actually aiming to hit the 2nd rail at a certain angle or there are balls in the way. Or whatever it is. Plus to...

I can’t recall what it was exactly. But I’m 42 and at my last eye exam, the eye doctor said something about it being natural to not be able to see things as close up as you age. Forgot what it was called. But has nothing to do with the strength of your vision. im no Dr, but since you are...

Thanks. There is already a smile on this face. Good or bad, always greet life with a smile!

I love it Bob! As requested. Some flash without being gaudy, You hit it on the head. Plus finished right on schedule. You are the man!………..now if my fargorate only matched the equipment being used….😓😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.

Thanks for the write up SJM. I only read 2-3 pages. So I’m not sure if anyone mentioned this. It would be really helpful if the hotel had rooms for all players, and the late sign ups. I was going to sign up at the beginning of January. They had around 100 spots available, but no rooms left...

I don’t believe how opinionated I came off two years ago. Sorry about that. I’m still opinionated, but after taking some time off of here I must’ve chilled out a bit. in my opinion the low end McDermotts still play better than the Valhallas. I’ve shot with the Valhallas a few times now. They...

What I’m wondering is if the singles have the same structure. If someone won more than 5 or so in a row wouldn’t they almost definitely go up a level by default? Unless they lost their last something like 5-10 matches prior to the tournament?

He’s not on the list. Chris is number 94. But I did get a little show. Which was worth the $20. His shape>my shape! Lol

Well the competition is tough in high level Vegas minis. I’m 1/2 against 680’s. But Just had to play this dude. Is he even allowed in APA with that fargorate? That’s like a top 100 in the country rating. I got 1 on him. Could’ve had 2/3 but I choked on a couple safes. Failed to lock him up tight...

So not sure if I want our APA team to win in Vegas today. My flight got cancelled yesterday. Now I can’t get out there until late tomorrow. World Championship starts today. If our team loses we get moved to losers bracket and won’t play again until 2pm Saturday. If we win we have another match...

Off to Vegas tomorrow. Anyone gets tired of the APA minis PM me maybe we can try to get a table at another spot and have our own small minis. Lol!

Seems more are going to that format. Just getting back into the tournament play. Not used to this alternating break stuff or even rack your own. Thanks for the input!

Yeah but my break usually gets me shape on the 1, usually makes a wing, and pops the 9 1/10 times on avg. I never go over 20 without popping a 9 in. I normally pop the 9 once each time I play the ghost. But not always. I’m not trying to make the 9 it just goes. Is it alternating with handicaps...

I just wanted to take a minute to thank everyone for all the input you gave on this. Thank you! I really mean that. I started out shortening my cueing hand to where it was still comfortable. Then worked on dropping my elbow a bit. This has really improved my game and confidence level. My draw...
