Mr. Murnak,
You say a C+ doesn't win qualifiers.
I say a B player doesn't break and run a FOUR-pack of 10-ball.
Both occurences are rare for players of our speed, no?
I've never been able to win, or even come close, to winning a qualifer after that one in 2005.
What have I done lately? Pretty much nothing. I play a lot of barbox and everyone in Southern California (and probably the rest of America) will attest to my love for playing 8-ball on a barbox. I've quit chasing the tour so I am no longer an aspiring pro. I stay local and I play a lot of APA.
As for Merissa, I know her quite well as she is from the Southern California area. I was joking about the knocking. Otherwise, why would I post that publicly? But, alas, humor is often lost on the intarwebs.
I'm just a chick that loves to play pool, which, according to what everyone has said, is not so different from Ms. Andoni. I don't know what speed Ms. Andoni plays, but everyone has spoken very highly of her game. I do not think this will be an easy match for me and I know I will have to play very well to win.
I bet my own money because I have faith in myself. If you have faith in Ms. Andoni and her four-pack of 10-ball, then bet on her. If you don't, then withdraw. I do not doubt she has enough support on the forums to make up your $500 should you choose to do so.
