A fair point to be certain, and I have an issue with my LO as well as the way the situation was handled at the tourney. My main concern honestly is the players on my team who play on 4 different APA teams and center much of their life and friends on this will now be banned for 2 years. A nine...

I'd argue that the equalizer handicap system is (or should be) assigning the proper handicap if the player is not sandbagging, dumping or whatever. I don't know how my players will show up at a national level, we've never competed there before. To expect that I will guess that my players will...

No roster changes Hi folks, A couple more clarifications: The roster had zero changes from session, local playoffs, regionals and vegas. Sean was never coaching or in the arena etc. he was either in the stands with friends and family or playing minis. I don't believe the rule of two players...

Our side of the story Hey all, I’m actually the captain of the team that was disqualified. Just landed back home and when I can get to a laptop in a few hours I’ll post what happened and clarify more. Wanted to check in now to maybe prevent speculation and bad info. A couple quick points...

I'm looking for a fancy Mezz Exceed with a wavy joint and colorful inlays. Shafts not necessary. I have a handful of predator cues, an existing Mezz Exceed with neo-cork wrap, Robert Harris Custom and other cues I could trade along with cash for the right cue. b

Persuasive... This is a very persuasive argument for throwing out first, and the one I see the most. Appreciate the input :) b

Interesting, wouldn't this indicate that you should defer? Surely it's better to respond then throw out? b

Interesting discussion.... Does your response change if you have a new player, who comes in as a four but will quickly be going up to a 6 probably has his true SL? Controlling this players match feels really important to me as I'm trying to get us qualified in this session. The other teams...

Is there an argument for this? Thanks for your response :) I'd like to invite another captain who prefers to defer the toss to argue with you if that's alright, lol. I don't know enough to form a really solid argument in this case, but the longtime captains who defer might have some...

Love it Been playing with a 12.9 for about 6 month now and I love it. My one concern was how difficult it might be to change the tip myself on a small lathe. I finally replaced it today and it really wasn't a big deal. Just took my time. b

Question for the seasoned APA captains. If you win the toss, do you prefer to throw out the first player, or have our opponent do so and in what scenarios? I am a fairly new captain, and I'm finding I want to defer so I am 'responding' to more matchups; however there are many folks who argue...

Bad ass, love it !

This is a great tip thanks. I love Azb - long thread filled with nonsense, pseudo-science and a few actual useful tips.. My kind of place :) b

Thank you - this is along the lines of what I was thinking. I'd have to imagine it last longer than a carrot, however it doesn't look as vegan. b

Hmmm, I do tend to keep it warm down there.. I'm going to do some experiments and see what variables are effecting this. The thread is 5 pages so clearly the pool world must know. b

LMAO!! That's really thinking outside of the box :)

Interesting Great responses thanks again... I'd have to say it's a combination of losing focus and actively changing my shot selection. I do this too much and need to start looking at it differently in that situation. Good discussion, b

Thanks for the responses all, this is what I'm dealing with. It can't be tiredness because it happens in the first match of a tournament as well as the later rounds when I make it that far. I guess it's laziness / carelessness although I try to be aware of that and stay focused... My best guess...

My division rep does this on occasion believe it or not...

Let's say you are up 4-0 in a race to 6, do you shoot more aggressively or try to maintain the same strategy that got you there? What if you were the one down 0-4? Lastly, does the length of the race also factor in for you? Thanks for your 2 cents :) I'm struggling lately with allowing people...
