Siming Chen vs Donny Mills
- Thread starter Joe_Jaguar
- Start date
ps, does anyone know why Siming is in the US right now? Is this match the only reason, or is she warming up for more action and/or tournaments?
Yup; Chen is on the player list for the WPBA Masters at Soaring Eagle Casino (Michigan) Feb. 27-Mar. 3.
[Kristina Tkach, too]
Any word on who her opponent was? Thanks
On a 7ft diamond, she was giving too much weight and all the breaks.
There is this log of Randy Davis of VA and Randy Davis of MD in the FargoRate system. (Maybe they are the same person....) Both ratings robustness is still on the low side, but if it holds, it would put the VA one at a B/B+ and the MD one at a B, IMO.
Davis, Randy (563467) 580
VA
Robustness: 196
Davis, Randy (929671) 561
MD
Robustness: 113
He is the 561 and that's who he is much of the time till he snaps in gear and plays 700 speed , Iv seen it to many times

That sounds familiar. SMH and LOL
Got the 7, 10 in 10b and 7, 9 in 9b on a 7ft. All breaks and slops .
I've seen local sharpshooters (probably 700-720 range Fargo) give the wild 5 and break, or 5, 7 and breaks, or the 5-out (no breaks) and demolish B players on 9' GC's. I'm surprised Siming did not win all 3 sets if their rating difference is that much. IMO
If her opponent got blanked one of the sets, getting a money ball plus the breaks on the barbox, that means he did not run out once that entire set. He can't be more than a middle B speed if that's the case IMO.
If it helps anyone's argument in this topic, here's a video of Corey Deuel vs Veronika Ivanovskaia from the recent Derby tournament. --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RG-AVr6-gxs
Corey plays better than Donny and Siming plays better than Veronika.
Someone said on the stream last night that pattern racking is not allowed in the match. Does anyone know if this is true? It’s not stipulated in the details, only says it will be “rack your own”.
It’s Donny Mills. If the other team did not explicitly state yes or no to pattern racking, then they deserve to lose.
Ps I have not seen any reliable info to this question and I also asked it here as soon as the match was announced.

Well I wasn't in fact I thought they were stealing one is I don't believe that the Fargo rate transfers over to barbox like they say
and 2 she's never played on one
