Most 4s would not know what 14.1 is. And a 3 rail bank to them would be a shot of a lifetime. Tell the naysayers that you will go up and you will beat them again when you are at your higher handicap.

Thanks all! I will heed the advice and keep my game simple with making balls and not putting my partner in trouble.

I will be playing in a scotch doubles tournament in a few months and am looking for any advice on how best to prepare. I would figure that playing some with my partner in advance would be best, but unfortunately, I will get very little to no table time with my partner before the tournament due...

Its been a few years But, is Stevie Moore still around ATL?

My concern there would be the revenge factor. Joe used to shoot with Jim, but Jim put Joe off the team so Joe reports back that Jim told him to dump on many occasions or Jim dumps all the time. I wonder if any operators have ever performed any trend analysis to identify patterns and what not...

Although no officially APA, I have played in a money league that uses APA handicaps, rules, and format but the operator of the league deems certain people at the handicap 8. The league also allows for a limit of 24 rather than 23. Worked pretty good. Still doesnt eliminate any sandbagging, but...

Just curious, how exactly does someone get CAUGHT sandbagging? There would have to be some hard evidence that the person threw a given match or missed shots and ran up innings. So someone with high credibility to the league (LO, division rep) would have to personally witness someone admit to...

9 ball tends to be less evenly matched because of the wide spread what the scores could be at the end of the night. You only have 3 options in 8 ball (5-0, 4-1, 3-2) so teams that are even close to being evenly matched are naturally going to have similar splits and thus similar scores. in my...

"I couldn't focus with this type of music playing."

You play the 6 and the 5 play the 3. Those are the best matchups. Now if the other team had a 6 and a 5 and you only need 1 win, then I would say let your 5 play the 6 and you play their 5. I try to keep 7s off of 3s and 4s. The pressure is too great on the 7. The 3 and 4 are not supposed to win...

thats absurd to structure your league to allow 3 entries for the same team in the same tournament. if teams are too common (4-5 of the same players), then put them in the same bracket. but to allow 3 entries for the same team into the same tournament is poppycock.

Not sure if it is still there, but The Rack on Greenwell Springs.

My wallet cant afford the gambling and my body cant afford the drinks. So I pay for my table time and buy bottles of water.

Sounds like your coaching philosophy is much more effective than many I have seen in that you get the player's buy in before they shoot any shot. If sitting the player down and explaining to him that you are simply trying to present another option available to him and that he does not have to...

Does he absolutely have to see the table? I have had similar situations and when a player like this refuses coaching he is hurting everyone on the team not only in the match but also from a developmental aspect. A player of your caliber probably plays alot of pool outside of league, but for some...

A converted cabin into a bar. The table is up a flight of stairs that your average person has a hard time climbing because they are so steep. Parts of the ceiling in the room with the table are only about 6 ft tall. The trap to catch the balls in the bar box does not work so many balls fall out...

7 - 1.4% 6 - 13.49% 5 - 24.65% 4 - 28.37% 3 - 25.58% 2 - 6.51% Average = 4.17

From a business perspective, you are best served by having multiple leagues going on in your pool room if you can handle the capacity. Keep in mind, in order to attract teams, you are likely going to have to offer free table time. You can run an in-house league and cater the rules and format as...
