Thanks for the gentleman's response. It shows a lot of maturity that is often lacking in pool halls. I respect both you and your game. I was never dogging you, nor did I intend my remarks to reflect negatively on you. I was just trying to explain to Zach that it was a fair game, given the way it went down. I know you never complained about it, and you paid up just like I would have if I had lost.
It was Zach's words about "manning up" that upset me, nothing you said. I am sure that was his intent, to inflame the situation and goad me into playing. If he wants to take my offer of a match, then great. If not then I would appreciate it if he would stop saying derogatory things like 'man up".
I have put up my money to play you, Travis, Trey, and many other players. Win or lose I say "thank you" and shake my opponents hand. I never get pissed at my opponent, even if I am sometimes disappointed in my own performance. I expect the same courtesy in return and you definitely handled our match with grace and composure.
There is no bad blood between you and me.
