Lol...a connoisseur of the finer things. I find it extremely rare that I encounter a bottle of wine worth drinking that is $10 or under. I've had wines over $750 a bottle. I sure as hell didn't buy it haha. It was an '85 Lafite, and it was exquisite. Only my wallet says it isn't worth the...

It seems like Mike is a member of "folk" and is doing what he is inclined to do. Sooo....um... KMRUNOUT Sent from my iPhone using AzBilliards Forums

I think the analogy was apt. So sexism as an example is ok, but race as a similar example is not ok? Is that what you're getting at? You do understand that both the sexism and racism was portrayed as *bad* by Mike, right? What analogy would you use regarding making assumptions based on sex...

So have you perhaps compared yourself to some other players? I'm at exactly 650 right now. When I look at other guys around me that I think I play even with, they fall in the 640-670 range. So even if I were not established, I could probably guess I play around 650 speed or so. Just...

Fair enough. I respect your reply. Go for it! I hope it happens and good luck! KMRUNOUT

Again, I don't think anyone is saying not to play the match. I think people are simply contesting some of the assumptions and claims the OP is making. People need to recognize that you can discuss a persons motivations and reasoning without directing them one way or the other what to do...

It was an analogy. He was comparing making predictions based on race to making predictions based on sex. Mike didn't make either of those predictions. KMRUNOUT

Jay, Do you think posting his current fargo rate would be ok? I don't think any number would reveal his identity. Just post the rating and the robustness, if you would. KMRUNOUT

I think part of this is that there are multiple issues going on here. On one hand, you have a guy looking for a game. Ok, seems fine. Next, you have a guy making claims about women vs men. Ok, seems interesting, although potentially sexist. I personally don't care about that...he can think...

What I think you fail to realize is this: I don't disagree with your last paragraph. I think for sure there are personality differences between men and women. However, those are not the only factors that contribute to a pool performance. In fact, I'd say those factors matter LESS when there...

I agree 100% that men and women have a great deal of difference across all sorts of categories. I also agree that there are differences between individual women, and between individual men. SIming Chen is rare in so much as she is "the best". However she is not the least bit rare in regard to...

I knew Tim well for almost 15 years, maybe more. We've battled lots of times. Great player, great guy. He was 39 years old. I was told he suffered a bad heart attack and went to the hospital with heart failure and on life support. He passed away a day or 2 later. A very sad loss for pool...

I play at Snookers all the time and have for years. They used to have centennial balls with the matching blue circle cue ball. For a couple of week period, they got measle cue balls with the centennial object balls. This may be the period you mean. Then they simply got the super aramith pro...

Thanks my friend saved me the trouble. KMRUNOUT Sent from my iPhone using AzBilliards Forums

Yes this is the one. I didn't realize there was an order to the balls in the line. I love the drill!! So another question: can you go in front of the line of balls with the cueball? Like can you follow 2 rails forward to get shape on the 15? Finally, are you allowed to shoot the 15 in any...

My guess is you hit a tad lower than you thought, perhaps near the miscue limit. It happens. And it is extremely difficult to detect in hindsight. Also, the purple logo aramith ball is a bit weird. It draws absurdly easy and tends to want to keep spinning once spinning. It is also very...

Actually the exact opposite is true. KMRUNOUT Sent from my iPhone using AzBilliards Forums

Awesome!! Great stuff to hear. I tried your drill, recorded some of it. Was a little unclear on the rules. You're definitely making me want to get a Revo. Good luck in July!! KMRUNOUT Sent from my iPhone using AzBilliards Forums

I enjoyed this. I will try some of your drills. You seem to play very well...I suspect your Fargorate may be a bit low haha! Actually, maybe I have the wrong guy. Are you the 688 or the 765? I am building up to getting a Revo shaft, but I insist on waiting until I can get a 3/8-10 joint...

Lol. I suspect that the wearing of Ferrari clothes correlates negatively with owning a Ferrari car. KMRUNOUT
