Because it makes an interesting narrative. Scrappy pinoy gambles his way into a plane ticket to the us and improves his family's life would be cool.
I guess you could make a story about some guy that spends thousands of hours and the best years of his life becoming the top echelon of the sport...
I hear you guys, everyone likes to have an edge, but if you won't bet halfway fair games it's not gambling either it's just a job.
I remember a decade or so ago Busty was at Edgies in Milpitas playing anyone that wanted 50 a game all day. Plenty of people lined up for that.
By the end of the...
It's just you said that winners don't gamble unless they're sure they have the best of it. That's like the definition of nitty. Doesn't take much stomach to gamble when you have an edge.

It's easier to understand if you take it to the extremes. Let's say you're playing Tony Chohan for your mortgage. You like goin to 1 and him goin to 3 wayyy better than you to 13 him to 15.

Doesn't necessarily have to be at a game. I saw a little kid whip his soda at a full grown man in a Giants jacket. Told him he should go the hell home to Yonkers. Dude just kept walking like a punk too, didn't even cuss the kid out or anything.

It's cause he's played worse against 500's than 600's and not that much better against 400's. Almost like he's playing the ghost, doesn't matter how well the other player is he just concedes the racks he doesn't run out.

Yeah some asshole tried to sell me some used paintings at a profit once. They were like a 100 years old and needed to be reframed. I doubt they cost more than a couple bucks when they were new.

I do after a while on the table.
At first I use a spot in front of the object ball or a ghost ball for aiming. I pay attention to the rails, short v long, how fast the table is playing. I focus on shot speed and try and get as close to pinpoint position as I can.
Then gradually after a couple...
I see the difference between team and individual sports more. Team sports it seems more frowned upon individual sports it seems more the norm. Golfers, Fighters, Jockeys, Darts, Pool, etc.

He did that once, he likes to experiment. He never did it again so I'm assuming he figured it wasn't a good idea. I think Shannon would have the best of it long term if Corey had kept at it.

So what you are just against the man making money? He didn't force anyone to buy tickets. So unless he misrepresented the cue or the rules of the raffle I don't see what the complaint is.
