    2023 World Pool Championship

    I agree with everything here. I figured out a long time ago that giving out referrals to 'help my friends' always blew up in my face. I had to give out referrals to help my clients. In other words, be mindful of who you are really trying to help. Recommending a plumber who desperately needs...

    2023 World Pool Championship

    $456 round trip from Chicago on LOT. Not much more than a domestic flight.

    Best/Funny Trash talk

    Guy walks in to the tournament and says he just got bumped to a 5 (APA). Another player tells the TD "He should be at least a 6." TD deadpans:"He won't live long enough to get to a six." Young player trying to stir up action woofing at people. Seasoned veteran is not impressed. Tells...

    Is it considered bad form to take a shot just to screw over your opponent?

    I agree. I think they misunderstood the rule in the first place and thought that it meant CB and/or OB had to be driven to a different rail. I argued with the TD about it but to no avail. I wish I could remember exactly where it was but it was 1995-2000-ish. So based on where I was living...

    Is it considered bad form to take a shot just to screw over your opponent?

    I don't remember what league or tournament but for a while there was a rule that if a ball was frozen to a rail then the CB and/or the OB had to contact a different rail. If you hit a frozen ball and the CB contacted the rail the ball was frozen on and nothing else hit a rail, it was a foul...

    This is why Fargorate Fails...

    That guy (McKay) is my spirit animal! He reminds me of a great player from Denver named Ray Selby. Did not care about position just made every ball.

    Fargorate ...ok, the rest of the story. He had only a couple of games in and must have won them all.

    It can also go the other way. A guy in a tournament I played a few months ago was rated a 980. He was an APA 5 iirc.

    Moderation Change and Rules Clarification

    That too. But I was referring to the fact that we aren't allowed to post about Moderator issues or complaints. Clearly that topic is 'verboten'.

    This is why Fargorate Fails...

    He probably posted on here a few months ago about being underrated in Fargo Rate and everybody told him "Everybody thinks they're underrated, get over yourself!" And then went on to tell him:"If you're that good why don't you play some of the big $1000 entry tournaments." So he did. Now...

    What about the diamond bar box ghost? 580-600?

    Fargo rating

    It's funny you say that. I was just thinking the same thing the other day. Fargo is a rating of performance in competition. Not skills. I used to think I got a lot out of my game and I punched above my weight. Despite having poor skills I was 'scrappy.' Then I was shocked when I did the...
