Mike dechaine vs an apa 9 …

Top pros play reely well, it is true.
Fun video but it shows when a pro has no fear of you beating them they just free stroke and its gets real ugly real fast.
There was a guy that could give everybody in the area at least 10/7 in one pocket, and Efren came to town and gave that guy 12/7 - 12/6 (Efren's break).
Efren won.

This is in Fitchburg, MA at my old stomping grounds. James Chirco is a good local player, but not going to be hitting the pro tour any time soon. I never actually saw him in any tournament that I played, and we lived in the same area. It's nice to see some people I know having fun playing Dechaine. One of them is an SL-4 (if not all of them).

You are correct. Although they did say this 9 is a mid 500 Fargo I believe. I also know someone who plays apa who’s over 700
A pro beating a league player? Who’d a thunk it
Local? Brian.
James is listed as a 658 with 2000 robustness.
Yes He do !
That seems very unrealistic. A 7 not beating a 5 on their best day?
The cloth was put under the rack so when you push it forward the balls don’t wear the cloth.
The point is, the 7 is not really a 7, he's inflated his ranking by only playing opponents they know they can beat. It's cherry picking, they will never shoot anyone they know they can't handle. This in turn raises their ranking to an undeserved level, because their win rate is high. They actually might be a 5 or less. That's why I stated, there's a huge difference between a 9 and a 9.

The guy in the video says someone there invented it but I saw that like 30 years ago at the club lol it’s to stop the roll marks balls make when you load the rack and roll it forward. You put that under the rack . Put the balls in and when you roll the rack forward that rolls out the back.
It’s not a surprise lol it’s the contrast of a really good amateur . (The guy is over 600 Fargo.. someone said a 698) and a pro.
It’s a shame mike doesn’t try to make a run as a pro again now that the money has gotten better in pro pool. I always liked him
