Eating Crow: FargoRate and Siming Chen

No sir. Not a chance you are getting away with an I told you so. You BET on Mills.

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Thats true. As much respect as I have for her game, I liked Donny in this match. So she proved herself to be an even better player than I thought she was before.
 
Perhaps..... But he was promoting Siming when Siming wasn't cool....

So if anybody deserves a big I told you so, it is Jay.


And John, who was promoting the overall skill of the Chinese players including Siming 10 years ago.


Here is a thought, there are several female players in China close to her speed.

And.....I bet on her against lower rated players because she has the edge and many people still refuse to believe that Fargo Ratings are accurate.

“Fear Factor “, we have all experienced it. Makes it hard to finish against a player you know you aren’t supposed to beat. I like it when I don’t know the player I am up against.

She obviously seeks out the strongest players. A good way to get better. I applaud her. Against a weaker player (in a big event) she makes that 7 with perfect shape.

The fear factor has another aspect...which can get a top player beat.
...some people will play a great player like they’re playing the ghost....
...if you miss, you lose...
...sometimes it will bring the best out in them

I used to play a guy in a handicap 9-ball tournament,,,late 90s.....always won.
Same guy drew Alex one night, playing with the same spot I gave him...
...he drilled Alex...got excited and made everything he shot at.
Outside, I said “Nice shooting, Joe.”....wide grin..said “I’m calling my brother.”
..some players played their best against Alex
