    I got reminded yesterday why i quit playing tournaments

    While you have not been around here as long as i have i will say you are partially correct. When i first joined apa here we did have some success with having bracketed singles qualifiers but it died off and at the time splashboards were not very popular. ...mainly due to lower levels feeling...

    APA e-mails are up, is the APA in trouble?

    Based on what i saw from you wnd your opponent ....who basically handed you a couple of racks i would not be afraid to play you 3 sets of race to 7 . race to 7 in 8 ball...wpa rules...also race to 7 in 9 and 10 ball. That would prove who is the better all around player. I have not shot on a 9...

    APA e-mails are up, is the APA in trouble?

    Be careful of what you wish for. There are plenty of strong players thwt play leagues. There is one in my area that a room owner offered to sponsor him in an upcoming white diamonds tournament once. I saw him put a beatdown on a 7 one time. He was up 65 to 3 in a 75-55 race when the 7 threw...
