But Fargo Rating can tell you exactly how many more games that she is supposed to win by in each set. I think that if someone is rated 100 points higher for example, they are expected to win twice as many games as the lower rated opponent.
EDIT: If anything I'm saying is not correct, someone please provide the accurate info.

A race to 18 would put her at a 4 game favorite if she was 36 points over him. She is 35 points higher but they are racing to 21, so roughly 4 games.

He can’t win. Please take my yearly bonus but don’t tell my wife. I’ll tell her it was a bad year for the company
Our fargorates are only 2 points apart does that mean we can play even.

I know you play fairly well, but apparently you know nothing about averages, or, you think we dont.
If they race to 75 I'll give you 2 to 1

Sure, as soon as you get enough games in the system to have an established rating.
Please don't treat me like I am stupid. I find it extremely insulting.
Not especially worried about getting trapped, I'm just fudging with him a bit.
The last time I actually practiced heavily before I moved to Germany, I had a hill-hill match against a 695, in a race to 13. I think the expectated outcome is I get 5 or something like that. My Fargorate hasn't moved in a couple years, and was prolly based on 1 or 2 seasons of BCA plus a few regionals...
There was an AZer that trapped me a few years back at DCC.. He got the 6 out wild playing 9 ball, but had to play with the rake every shot.
Someone got murdered in that set, but I am not gonna say who? :grin-square::grin-square::grin-square:

Hey man, that wasn't me in this particular one... A fellow AZer recognized me from my cue case, and offered that crazy game for giggles (and $100.00 on the side).. I thought to myself, "Well, I'd expect to at worse break even giving the 6 out to a B player playing normally, so this would be fun to try.. If he can win this way, I am certainly gonna get my money's worth..", lol
Nothing personal and I don’t think your stupid I was just poking some fun at you. Just wanted to see what your reply would be. You can look back ever since I joined this forum I have stated that I don’t gamble anymore.
I did miss 2 balls and scratched once. I’ll be the first to admit that I got a lot of room for improvement. Let’s see your video.
No worries, man.. I still have the same aversion to being woofed at that got me this nickname years ago from Smorgass Bored/Tampa Tubby.... :grin-square::grin-square::grin-square:

I cant even play pool let alone record it.
I just seem to remember Russ playing fairly good.
Jason<----not the best memory
Cleary -- This situation is not complicated.
Person A is scheduled to play person B some pool, and one of them will win.
Some people believe person A is more likely to win
Some people believe person B is more likely to win
So long as there are people in both camps who like to wager on their belief, all is good. This appears to be the case.
Nobody but you is talking about odds on money and the like. I think Siming is more likely to win. But alas I don't bet on pool anymore. Who do you think is more likely to win?

Somehow I knew you would decline my offer to post a video. At least I’m honest enough to admit there are lots of players who can beat me. Yes Russ does play well. His fargorate is 581. I’m about a 90% favorite to win against a player with a 581 rating. My son is around a 550 player so I have plenty of experience playing someone in that range and I know what the outcome is.
