Everything has its pros and cons. Use a template? Consistent racks, some people say too consistent/predictable. Template may interfere with a slow rolling ball. Don't use a template? Inconsistent racks, some people say too inconsistent. May lead to golden breaks, or a 9-ball hovering over...

Clickbait headline, with an actual (good) payoff :)

If that happens, then at least you could point to something reality-based instead of theoretical. If we want to play the theory game I could say that players would complain they are scratching too often off of the break because the pockets are buckets. Pick your poison. I'm happy to be proven...

If every table was the same, and 64 players competed, what would the complaints be? Sounds like the top 8 players walked away with money because they played better than the other 56 players on identical tables.

Fair point. Nevertheless you are comparing a theoretical against reality (ie: theoretical is your own guess for why they didn't comment, positively or negative, versus reality which is that I haven't heard of ANY comment either way). I find it interesting if they haven't congratulated Jayson...

Except it really doesn't have anything to do with what I wrote. You're talking about theoretical. I'm talking about reality. SvB did play. Earl did play. Ruslan did play. None of them put up surprising numbers. If you want to theorize that it was only a matter of time before Ruslan or...

Has nothing to do with what I wrote, but, okay?

SvB "don't hardly ever play 14.1" --> And Jayson does? My question about whether SVB, Earl or Ruslan has commented on either the table or Jayson's record still stands.

SVB, Earl and Ruslan already made attempts before Jayson on the same table (and their numbers did not compare). Have they made any comment about the tables, and/or congratulated Jayson publicly?

My assumption is that Predators prices are high due to people paying it. They've been around a long, long time. Some companies succeed with premium prices and (potentially) lower but adequate volume, while others with lower prices and need higher volume. There are many good options out there for...

Bonus points for use of the word rubes.

I don't know if it will "help the sport" or attract anyone to pro pool, but it will be nice to have some top pros give it a go and see what kind of numbers they put up.

A little off topic but since you brought it up, I pulled out the match and watched it again. Including the introductions and so on, it was only 20 minutes. It was a bloodbath. It also includes the famous "He killed it! He killed it!" thin cut going three rails with the perfect amount of...

Oh, is that as far as "he went"? https://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=306854

What does "I do not like having to trying to" mean? Having to trying to? And what are "Mellinals"? I don't like having to try to figure out what some random dude on the Internet is trying to say. Add to that, the origin of the term "shout out" was early 80s and has been in common use ever...

But, but, but he threw his own cue on the ground after winning the World Pool Championship! What a horrible person! :D

"Gaijin" is the casual word for foreigner. Can be negative/rude but doesn't have to be. "Gaikokujin" is the polite way to say it. Gai = outside Koku = country Jin = person A bit of a peculiar name for a company. Would be curious to know why it was chosen.

Duh, NDA :thumbup:

A good one for "Power One Pocket Volume 3" :thumbup:

People go to the viewing event. Pay $50 for a ticket and then sign an NDA that means if they tell people what they saw they will be fined tens of thousands of dollars. Everyone signs it willingly, of course, because that makes sense. Then John puts on the video, and says "we skipped a couple...
