Yes-so if you are a 3 you race to 3-if you are a 6 you race to 6 and so on.
6 plus one means the opponent must go to one game above their handicap
so 6 plus 1 plays a 7-6 player races to 6- 7 player races to 8
wl means that person won a lottery draw-one ticket on each side-tickets sold
if they draw you-you get to reduce your handicap by one game for The whole tournament
‘hole that helps

I said for me it's not enjoyable ....You're a funny guy!
SVB must play terribly on a 9ft since one of his favorite games is bar box 8ball. Probably couldn't even make a ball on a 9fter by this logic
Plenty of APA leagues play on 9ft tables, even though the championships is a 7ft.
Lol. 2 of those guys are 69 and 71 fargorate-hardly "pros", the rest can't even be considered.
If they're in a "pro" tournament, they're dead money 100% of the time.

Is something wrong with you bud ......... Or are you just slow?
these guys play for a living. of course they're going to go where money is. do you always knock them cause you have zero chance of beating any of them? these guys have paid their bills from the game for quite some time. not every pro plays like svb or gorst.
Just because a guy is second or third string, he's still a pro.
Since Gorst has moved here he has been making quite a bit of $$ playing in the bigger barbox events. Does that now downgrade his status as "PRO" ?? Seriously, if you don't like them don't play. Lot of pro players make a good chunk of their yearly nut off them.

There's gotta be something other than calling yourself a pro to establish yourself as a pro. They have no chance of winning or even making their entry back vs the REAL pros.
There's guys rated higher than them that are dead money
What would your word be for it? I'm not sure what to call them either.
I like to say the top pros are the ones I expect to cash and Elites are ones I expect to finish top 4 in strong fields.

Except those guys wouldn't cash(make $$$) in a "pro" event.
I wouldn't sweat the "pro" label much longer, as FargoRate is sort of shining a light on this. I imagine male "pro players" who play sub 700 level pool know they will soon have to transition to calling themselves "pool professionals." 
They are pros. We just need a Korn ferry and seniors tour
.
Any results from the tournament?
