How this nitty crap is going on i do not understand. I guess the class Gene has is not rubbing off on his protege.
I've seen some of the biggest pool gamblers ANYWHERE, postpone ahead sets AND even discontinue playing the ahead set altogether just because they became too difficult to win for either party and don't measure a person's intestinal fortitude or skill as much as it does there endurance.
Ahead sets are fine but when they become purely an endurance test or a medicine war, they aren't worth playing, imo.
Last night a seasoned road warrior asked me to play, offering me heavy weight. I agreed to the bet and set and then when a table opened up, he changed his mind. Then later on when another table opened up, he decided he wanted to play that same match and this time I said no thanks. It wasn't about the table either. I just don't like getting jacked around. He's not a nit for backing out the first time. He just changed his mind is all. It's all good. You can't force someone to bet their money if they don't want to. Calling them a nit simply means that you didn't have your way with them. Lol
As always, it's about whose ox is getting gored.
Possibly the first mention of oxen on AZB.
No, but you might be forced to wear an oxen yoke. Think of it as the AZB version of the old stockades.
Also, players who have never lost a game themselves (as in they didn't win) because.....
....."the table isn't level.....it's too wet in here......it's too hot in here.....my opponent got every roll.....I got nothing but bad rolls.....he cheated.....the bet wasn't high enough for me to focus.....8-ball is for old women....."........etc. ad nauseum should also be subject to the AZB yoke.
Sometimes you just lose, folks. Wait, what was the question?

I have an idea. How bout they play 2 out of 3 races for the cash and then move on, winner or loser?
All this quitting even business ain't good for nothing! imo.

I'm almost positive Danny will give him a go. Maybe even Sam Disse?I can get a couple guys up here to give zach action for sure. I'd like to take a lesson from gene as well.
best,
Justin
That's funny Ray!
I think Zach just needs to learn how to win when he's up. Seems he breaks even after being up quite often and that would indicate to me that he might be letting up once he has a lead. Not on purpose of course...
Just my $.02
