I am a 625 and run out fairly well playing the ghost. When I played a series of cheap sets with a 700 I came to a conclusion about why he was always winning. Of course there were SLIGHT differences in break and accuracy. But Believe the biggest reason is the higher players play safe and kick...

Both Kid Delicious and Kid Vicious (Eddie Uber) opiate ods.

the Si jiahui vs Shaun Murphy match was epic with a thrilling hiill hill frame.

The tournaments in Phoenix allow 2 hours and 30 minutes for a match. At 2:15 both players are warned they have 15 more minutes. At 2:25 each player gets 5 more innings and whomever is ahead wins . If they are still tied Next ball or foul wins or loses. It's plenty of time for a race to 3...

Annie Duke's Thinking in Bets

One of my favorite golfers Brad Faxon won the B.C. Open Pro-Am pool event teamed up with I think Earl. Once in a tv interview, after being at the top of the Saturday British Open leader board, he was asked what he was going to do that night. He replied that Fred Couples the wives and him were...

Reading this thread reminds me of the old adage "Talent instantly recognizes genius, Mediocrity recognizes nothing other than itself."

I just saw one yesterday built by Brian Mordt in 2012. It was a very good looking cue. Itsays DOOM on the butt cap. Brians has his 4 signature rings not on the Janes cue.

The match was Frost v Schmidt from the last onep tourney held at California Billiards Mountain View around 13 or 14. Should be on youtube, Fast Lenny was the creator.

The B tournament was for players with an average below .8 or .75.

If you don't think the super close jump was a foul, calculate the predicted parabola and landing point of the cue ball and then the actual point of landing.

Your super close jump shot is a foul. If you play the slomo at half speed you can see that after the initial contact the whole shaft continues forward hitting the cueball again. I think that any jump that close is always going to be a foul. Super video. Thanks

I believe David Rousch (sp) used one at the Derby around 2006.

Thanks for the charts Paul.

Pt and Jay thanks for the Foreaker stories. Baby Face was married at one time to a lady that used to play on the Arizona Women's Billiard tour Madelyn Roberts. She said she was a lot younger than him. She played pretty decent and a great musician.

Jay, I read an article in a magazine from the 60's about Harold Worst. In the article it said that the only guy Harold was afraid of was a billiard player from Michigan named Jack Foreaker. I've asked tons of oldtimers about him but nobody has ever heard of him. Can you ask this guy if he ever...

Emerson nice ones! Just in time for OTL

Here is a good video that explains the Elo system of chess.Not a lot of math (really), and gives good incite into what's going on with these rating systems. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsYfbmp0To0
