The format will be changing for next month. The working mans ball obviously isn't enough weight. Suggestions are welcome.
 
3 out of the top 4 players don't have a job and they live off of tournament money....lets find a way to end that..I'm a firm believer in open tournaments..but every great player I've known in the past either had a job or they were on the pro tour...
 
There were 3 players walking around the room yesterday looking for someone to put them in the tournament and two of them finished in the money...lol
 
Spots

Everyone knows that the last two is a sucker spot (in gambling). I would venture too say that it didn't come into play more than 3 times for wins too the player receiving it. Look at the final 2 set with TJ & Tony, who ever got too the 6 first was out.
We know you were tying too make it fair, but too give Oreatta (sorry for spelling) 2 games was too much for some players when she can beat them head-up. Is hard too handicap with a standard rule, I thing it should be on an individuals ability. I personally don't want too take the spots! Reason being I can not assess my ability and focus against my opponent. I though your system was working as close too fair as any at JR Pockets. :thumbup:

I know a way to stop that!!

Make a rule that you have to be employed in a real job in order to play....not just a weekend cut the grass job. A full time job. Those being employeed in the "JOB OF POOL" does not count!! Sounds fair to me.
