    VNEA scoring question

    I didn't fight it too hard and gave them the point.. we won the night handily however in a tight tournament match where every point matters I'm not sure I'd be so generous.. that's why I'm hoping for an official ruling..

    If you think Mosconi couldn't cut it in today's pool world... Riddle me this Why did it take 30 Years after his death for anyone to break his high run record? A bar set so high that some people belive his record still stands, and video to the contrary is a hoax??
