Hustlers Week 2: Episodes 3 & 4 Thread
- Thread starter Cardigan Kid
- Start date
My guess is, she rolled up for the combo, dogged it and they moved ahead a few balls and she still won.
If it was scripted and they wanted her to make the combo and win, she would have kept shooting it until she got it. Editing would have only included the made shot. That's the whole idea of scripting.

No hate. Just don't buy into the staged games.
As far as WPBA ranking it'd a joke. I'd be #6 in the country if I had breasts!!!
Could really give a rats ass what any of you think. It's okay of people think the show is BS. I'm not the only one. It's more like days of our lives.

At this point if you pay your member dues you are guaranteed 30th on the list....just send in a head shot and the name of your publicist.
Looking at WPBA ranking number 30 and down are only playing half or less of the events. Players earn points for playing, then more for winning. So sure your ranked, but not for winning or even placing high. What's the highest she's placed??

h mosconi cup format does not work??Please
Please understand if this was made to only appeal to Pool players the market would be so small it would not make it to the 2 nd. Week. It has to appeal to the masses so the bantering adds to the program for people who are not purist. I had two people doing work in my home last week and we were talking about it, the one guy plays some 8 ball on occasion the other one does not play at all. They both have seen it and they both enjoyed it, that is the bigger market the non Pool world. How accurate was the Color of Money, a bar player turned into a world beater in 6 weeks ! The movie appealed the public and Pool went on a boom. Let's get behind all Pool on reality and hope Pool gets a small jolt that it sorely needs.

How about a support page we can sign to help with your campaign? :thumbup:
great idea by you!
We enjoy the show and yes, it is a tv show1
We hope they show some of the VF pit action from this year! fun times
WOW, that is crazy, never played in one. I did play in a local Asian pool room in Tampa, which is kind of funny, cause Tampa has a huge Hispanic population, anyway, it’s the complete opposite, in the Asian room, once the side betting is done and the match starts you could hear a pin drop.
But that's just it, you don't have breasts. Maybe you can do what Bruce Jenner did. Then you can go on the tour and kick her ass! Muhahahaha.

Yeah I'm more of a leg guy.
You go ahead and feel free to go that route...would probably be a big hit.
I think it's pretty good. A little tough to watch sometimes if you play the game but, for the masses who it's intended for, it's pretty damn good.
For those who are dismissing Emily's game, all I can say is, she is playing infinitely better than the first few times I have seen her play.
Two snaps up!

I think some people have lost their minds.
It's entertainment; not an historical documentary.
The producers are looking for exactly one result - ratings because that's what gets you more shows to tape and that's how the bills get paid.
In trying to achieve ratings, the producers have every right to bend, twist, embellish and edit however they see fit. It's their baby.
I watched another Tru TV show a few times because it was entertaining, not even close to real. That show was Operation Repo.
Crazy shit happening at *every* repo job like one where The big, bald white guy, Matt, and Froy go to repo a car at the deadbeat's work and she just happens to be a very petite Asian karate instructor who comes out angry as a hornet and starts throwing Matt to the ground....
Or when they go to repo a car and a couple are naked having sex in the car when they roll up....
Or when they went to a bowling alley where the deadbeat was supposed to be and he finds out they're there and he comes running out like he was about to roll a strike with the bowling ball still in his hand and he ends up throwing it through their window...
Or the time they went to do a repo at the Crips or was it the Bloods compound in the middle of nowhere and end up in a gun fight...
Bottom line, these shows are for entertainment, nothing more.
The way I see it, what The Hustlers show might be doing pales in comparison to most of these other True TV shows.
Maybe they should step it up. :wink:

Sounds about right on. It's a "reality show". You're watching for someone(s) to make an ass out of themselves.

If you watch some of the vids on youtube of the Philippine, you notice they will just walk right in front of the guy shooting or sit on the table right next to the players. When you play in an Hispanic room sharking is like the rule. They all seem to do it.
:boring2
Not if the audience were allowed to get out of their seats and go talk to the players actually hovering over the table at times. Ther is a difference between that and just clapping for a good shot.
This is a pool forum and being that, comments are not really meant for public consumption. How we choose to discuss the show would be much different then the average person who doesn't play and certainly doesn't read this forum. It would be impossible for us to just play dumb when discussing the show, nor should we.
