    Siming Chen vs Donny Mills

    My point is that this series of matches does vindicate the Fargo Rating but has much less to do with the ongoing gender debate. We have gaping disparities in the environmental aspects of the players.

    Siming Chen vs Donny Mills

    Being in the top twenty won't garner a very big payday and I would posit even begin to pay the expenses of competing at DC.

    Siming Chen vs Donny Mills

    Irregardless of the Fargo Rating one must take into consideration that Ms. Chen is no free range player. In her country she has the support of the state in her career. Donny on the other hand is a working schlep. Now let's take a guy like Donny and suppose he never had to work a day in his...

    Los Angeles area players from the past

    New-ish pool room Denver.

    In Santa Monica on Friday and Sat nights after 7:00 its $16.50 an hour. That's a table rate and it don't matter if you are practicing by yourself. They did just recover all the tables though and they are playing well.

    Hard Times Bellflower

    When it opened, it was unreal. It had a very good Northern Italian restaurant in it. It turned out folks were not that interested in great Italian food while they play pool. So the Chef quit after approx. the first year. Then the Italian food went downhill and it became more of a bar food...

    The owner decided he wanted to get into the Hollywood nightclub business, which is one of the most fickle businesses in the world. Clubs come and go in the hood.

    Hard Times Bellflower

    Jeff Bey had every permit you could get regarding a poolroom. 24 four hour operation hard liquor license, entertainment license, you name it he had it and he packed it in. The biggest problem pool has is attracting young players.

    The Lion Alex Pagulayan vs T-Rex Tony Chohan HUGE Action Match Nov. 15-18th

    I believe if my memory serves me that SVB and Alex played a long session of One Pocket that went on for several days at Hardtimes Bellflower. This was several years ago. I believe the match was streamed. It was for real money and SVB had Alex stuck in the beginning and then Alex came back and...
