Another good example of professionals going all out with no money involved would be in basketball. Back in the day Kobe, Kevin G, Kevin D etc..... would make their way into some of the most famous street ball games (Rucker Park) and lay it all on the line. These games were vicious, hard nosed...

Shane didn't play very well by his standard to open the match, didn't get many roles early at all, but put on an absolute clinic after being down 11. Once he gets to his top level I don't see how anyone can stay with him. Just amazing and impressive by all accounts. Fedor was solid the entire...

The one thing I will add to the conversation.... I think the USA would be greatly benefited by a soft table......The easier the better......Obviously team Europe is significantly favored and significantly better than team USA in terms of talent..... much the same way that Steph Curry is a better...

While I would personally rather have the ball in hand on the breakout shot..... I will say that I think you are correct that the 4 to the breakout does look extremely doable with the 1 hanging in the pocket.

I know you play good....So two questions. First, how do you not break out the 8 off of the first shot when you have ball in hand and complete control..especially given the fact that you have a hanger down in the corner so you have almost no risk of not having a shot afterwards.....This is...

100% option A.....I can't imagine that shortstopish (I made a word up) or above player would do anything different. After you make the 7 and knock the eight out (and yes to everyone who points out that you should go 7 ball into the rail then the 8... it guarantees the cueball and 8 ball are...

When he was playing full time he drilled Shaw playing ten ball in a long race... and I believe they were scheduled to play another big set, and it wasn't Justin that pulled up last minute. When he played his top speed, his only weakness was his break... other than that he could play with most...

Tony has absolutely no chance against Shane with the 7 playing 9ball... unless it is a really/really short race.... Any type of longer game and Shane just plays to good.

Tony is at least shortstop plus in nine ball.... Plays really good.

Couple of thoughts, and questions. Don't you think that Efren wasn't in his prime when he played Varner in the Philippines? Did they ever play (gambling) when Efren was in his prime? If Mike was favored against Efren in gambling format why didn't he make the game. I know that Efren had TONS...

I'm guessing from this and other posts that you don't put as much stock into gambling matches as I would when evaluating the best rotation players in the world. I don't discount tournament victories, I think it is just a different measurement. I also don't discount players that play high stakes...

Anybody know the score after day 1?

I can't say that I am a huge fan of professional arm wrestling, but this last week I was bored and ended up spending some time watching the top in the world compete. I happened to come across a podcast/YouTube interview of Devon Larratt (one of the top Arm Wrestlers in U.S history). This...

I think the most challenging part of this system would be that it doesn't provide a clear perceptual (like a half ball hit does) way of aligning these two spots. In other words, the more the cut, the harder the alignment of these two specific spots without some other type of intervening...

I think there are three different definitions that are valid in response to the question... "What declares a pool player a pro". These all take different perspectives, and really focus in on what the questioner means when they say "pro". 1. I agree with individuals that say an individual that...

An in depth defense of "air strokes": At the upper levels of pool, I think you see several players with something like this in their Pre Shot Routine. Years back, Jimmy Reid actually had a training/teaching cassette out dedicated to the topic of pre-shot air strokes. His argument was that using...

Is this recorded where it can be watched?

How much money was on this game? Was it really enough to shake James up?

Can someone explain to me why Dennis and his partner are considered under dogs in this match?

High English new cloth is my guess
