Banned
Sorry if this is a very stupid or silly question, but I am just curious on an estimate of how many american pool players out there are too good, or would not be allowed to play in the APA (if they wanted to)?
I know a few players that have been banned from the APA, but it was not because they were pro speed (they were banned for other reasons), so I would like to not count those that are not allowed to play in the APA for reasons like sandbagging for example.
Just curious on opinions of how many active players out there would be too strong for even the strongest 7's (in 8 ball) or 9's (in 9 ball)?
I asked a similar question awhile back about how many pro's there are in the US, and I guess that this is a different type of question (because most replied with an answer of SVB being the only pro player in the US).
So is there a line between being too strong to be in the APA, and being a pro?
I am guessing that at least 99% of the guys that travel around on the tours like the Viking tour, and the Midwest 9 ball tour (and the Siminal pro tour) would be too strong to play in the APA, but I do not know.
