Yeah that doesn't really smell right. Here is another interesting qualifier story. 2019 China Open: Anton Raga and Jerico Banaras Raga: 22-year-old came in through qualifiers and lost 10-11 in the finals (to Kaci) Banaras: Played incredibly in qualifiers (828 speed) bringing his rating to...

Magpantay was listed as #10 Asian a few months ago. Also he beat Moritz 15-to-10 in 10-ball games in World 10-Ball just a few days before this.

JAM's record is now 6545943 to 1 in language usage.

I asked Jonás Souto (Spanish) how to pronounce his name, and it wasn't YOE-nus The J is a breathy H and the accent is on the second syllable. So it's more like ho-NAHS

There are 3 events where Superman and Clark Kent are in the same room at the same time. 2022 Sharks Invitational 2019 Manny Pacquia Cup 2015 World 10-Ball If you scroll down here, you see one JB finishes 65 and the other 33. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2015_WPA_World_Ten-ball_Championship

THAT is some fun information. Thanks Stu!

Yes. And importantly, the pond seems little from our outsider perspective. But it may not seem little to the top women or the top Middle Eastern players who have reporters and fans waking up early to make sure they catch the big match and interview the competitors. And it is, I'm speculating...

This is an interesting comment, and I'm wondering if the operative issue is not so much the day job as the experience being in the later all-eyes-on-this matches of the tournament. Compare, for instance Kelly Fisher (around 760) with Chris Reinhold (around 760) and imagine both getting to some...

I'm not disagreeing with you. But I will point out his big losses are even thinner. Amongst opponents 813 and up, he has wins (8 of them) over SVB, Raga, Duong, Capito, Lechner*2, Alex P, and Mario He. His losses (5 of them) against that group are against Gorst, Zielinski, Duong, and Dang...

The defense battle on the 8-Ball was pretty cool.

Perhaps not. But we've been saying that for the last 300 games or so, and everybody keep forgetting to send the memo to Ameer.

You have to admit, though, Ameer pocketing 34 balls in 3 racks of 10-Ball was pretty impressive.

That's kind.

When we did the simulations and comparison of top 2025 tournaments, only one player was common to all of them. Yapp does deserve a break.

(from facebook) THE QATAR 10-BALL OPEN starts in a few hours — and it brings the THIRD STRONGEST FIELD of the past year. Quite an accomplishment for an event brought by neither Matchroom nor Predator Pro Billiard Series. It’s organized instead by the Qatar Billiard & Snooker Federation under WPA...
