You have proved my point to be wrong. There is a need for exclusionary tourneys. It brings more people in than my imaginary tourney.
I played bar banger pool from 83 to 98, never saw anybody run 4 balls including myself.
Walked into pool hall in 98 & saw Stephan Wheeler playing straight pool. Soft spinning the cue with a stroke so smooth I had snot dripping outta my face. Just the sound of it alone. I never heard that sound before.
I've been to 20 US Opens since. It changed my life.
I just believe if these lesser players actually see the way the game can be played....
That's just the effect it had on me.
