ARs don’t cycle with blanks unless you have a totally obvious blank adapter screwed onto the flash suppressor. Which much to my chagrin several other people had already pointed out. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I’d bee more pissed about the weapon failing to cycle on every shot. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It just looks that way because you’re not used to seeing a pool table from that angle through a telephoto lens from 70-80 feet away. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh shit, I didn’t realize the one I got that looks just like it was that old. Now that I think about it I bought it from his booth at the APA/Camel Pro event in LV in 1998. It still looks great and plays as well as I remember ever time I take it out instead of my LD Mezz. Sent from my iPad...

The one in the middle looks like a Jerry Olivier. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The OP’s premise is that players without established ratings dominate the lower divisions and I was providing an explanation for one reason that should be expected. If a sandbagger plays 200 games of league play intentionally poorly. Say at a 400 rate. And they then go to a national tournament...

Nevertheless, you are sure to see the variation between expected and actual performance increase (both better and worse than expected) as their robustness decreases. It’s a defining characteristic of the system. If you had a system for assigning starter ratings that produced a smaller standard...

Um, never in the lower division. The winners games will go into the books and help establish them at a higher rating and a new bunch of unrated folks will win next year. Unfortunately folks with well established low ratings are never going to win unless you totally exclude non-established...

If it was a mix of 20s and 100s it would only be about the size of a paperback copy of Stephen King’s “It”. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So I’m in a new town for work for a couple of weeks and I find a nice spot to play a few games. After a while two gentlemen start playing some one pocket at the table next to me. Had a brief conversation with them and I mentioned that one of them looked a lot like Grady Matthews. I wouldn’t have...

If they can get the bookies to sponsor pool tournaments like they do for snooker in the UK it could. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It looks like the 15 is past the point. Cue ball wherever you feel comfortable pocket the 15 and draw back 2 diamonds for shape on the 8. Am I missing anything? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The 2-x-x-10 combo looks pretty dead to me as well and gives better cue ball options. Especially if it’s one pocket. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Well I live in Japan so it’s a little different, but many of the pros here are on the Mezz payroll. Hayato Hijikata even has his own design in the Exceed line. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I figure he just doesn’t want to put his bridge hand because of all the mess from the three pieces of chalk on the rail face down. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Not even then, if Americans took to the Chinese 8Ball tables someone like Diamond or Brunswick would start making them and Joy still wouldn’t be able to sell their tables to the US. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

While it is correct that the only time you hear about crime in English language media in Europe or Asia is when there are Americans involved, especially service members, the reason is it feeds into their local nationalist movements and serves as a way of wringing additional $’s from the US Govt...

He changes from the white to yellow cueball after the first shot. Is that allowed? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
