Is Hennessey considered top ( ) gambling?

He has been playing a ton of people, and regardless of how annoying and crappy his antics are, is he in the top 10 US gamblers who will play bar box and big table?
 
IMO, yes. As far as gambling and being in action, he may be just behind Chohan.

I watched him play Jonas around midnight on Thursday night with 4k in the middle and another 4 on the side and obviously Jonas is no slouch, he won the pro event.

He beat Jonas 13-7 I believe and had to have swiped 3 games for missing one of the last 2-3 balls on the table. He had a few break and runs and was in control most of the match.

His chalking wasn’t too bad, but I’m sure he went through at least a cube or two of masters.

was fun to watch! And I made a little on a sweat bet on the side. 👍

Based on Fargo he is #8 in the US. And two of those players have retired (Mike Dechaine #3 & Justin Bergman #4). It's honestly hard to believe for me but I trust Fargo.
 
You mean if Justin's mentality, lifestyle allowed him to play... they don't so he's a big non factor in pool.

They guy won't drive 20 minutes to play anybody. Wasted talent.
Does anyone really know why? At first I heard he was deathly afraid of Covid but I doubt that is still the case (if it ever was). If it's finances, he sure picked a bad time to quit. Prize money is really starting to take off with Matchroom. Maybe we'll see him return soon once it financially makes sense. Maybe Dechaine too.
 
Has Hennessey gambled with Shane, Filler, Shaw or Gorst
Shane gave him I think it was the 7, or maybe even the 7-out, in 10 ball about 10 years ago at the DCC. I saw it with my own eyes. Shane won 2 or 3 sets. The sets were something like race to 17 or 21 for maybe 5-10k each. That "should" also mean they probably played a few times before at a smaller handicap.

Those 3 Europeans I highly doubt it. I think Hennessy has been laying low for years. His name just started popping back up. Those 3 guys came on the scene when Henn wasn't that active, IMO.
 
Shaw was young then, let's see him or Hennessey take on some of the elite now. Let's see if he really has $$$gamble!$$$ I don't think they will play them for big bucks.

Been paying the bills with his cue since he was about 15 or so. Had some chemical issues in his life. He's doing ok now and has little-to-zero interest in traveling. Since i've been around him i've never seen him duck ANYONE.

The one time he traveled he got stood up over pocketgate.
