No.

I think I understood what you said and I think that I agree. :)

I agree with this. I played a tournament at a pool hall one time - I had been practicing there on 4.25" pockets for several hours and the TD asked if I wanted to play the tourney. The pockets on the tournament tables were 3 7/8". I played in it. I realized quickly that I couldn't run out and...

I have/had a couple across the bay in that price range but I think the last one will be leased Monday. That would be a hellish commute for you anyway. Although the google/Facebook/whatever bus does pick up a few blocks away.

True. Unfortunately both Ironman and Scott Lee have passed on. Along with Mr. Bond. This thread is bittersweet. I wish all three of them could have lived to see this development.

Well said. Winning is winning and pool is pool.

Between racks it definitely shouldn’t have been called.

I think the rule is pretty clear. If you break your shaft down during your opponent's turn, it's a forfeit/concession. I have seen it called in even nittier circumstances though. A girlfriend of mine was playing leagues away at a bar and was 'pole hooked'. She couldn't use her cue because...

I don’t know about the others but Deuel is really strong on a barbox.

I agree - I am not sure what will happen but I’m sure more players will start doing this and eventually “something” will have to be done. :) maybe someone will come up with a solution that players’ phones can add to their stream and basically get bonus table coverage still through the names...

He Doesn’t have a crew, only his cell phone. The commentators join his feed and comment remotely. he asks the streamer and tournament host and director for permission. He only streams matches that are not streamed by the official streamer. It generates interest in the tournament and when he...

I played golf with Matlock when he was learning how to play golf. I was giving him a playing lesson of sorts. Not swing mechanics, he already was working with someone, mostly it was rules, strategy and putting. For not playing golf much he was a very good putter. We talked about reading the...

I think you’d have to be careful about when you tied them together so it would need to be players whose prime overlapped and only use results from their prime. SVB is key because he was in good form at an early age and has stayed there for a long time. Which ties him to Johnny Archer, Earl...

That’s what I was going to add. Should be able to connect time pools just like you connect geographical pools and calculate Fargo ratings for those players using SVB I. His younger days he ties in with Earl, Archer and a lot of the pros of yesteryear. Then those players tie back to the...

Seems like a good time to tell this story… Lots of years ago in Colorado Springs I was friends with a guy who worked at the Air Force Academy and loved to play pool. And he was pretty decent. Based on Fargo I would say his top speed when he was younger approached 700 and at this time as a...

Thanks. Shane looked exhausted to me in the one pocket finals. I wonder if he ran out of gas.

Nice. Looks like Filler and Van Boening are tied right now. Shane at 199, Filler at 209. Fedor is a bit behind those two but he could win it if SVB and Filler don't go too deep in the 9b and he wins.

The overall is getting pretty interesting. Of course we can't see the standings... :)

I don't think there is a shot clock. Good point.
