hmmm...u got my attention.... Do tell:thumbup:
No can do pilgrim............but I am sure you know the # for a guy who could.:smile:

There are many things that can help a lesser player be more competitve. Shorter races, loser break, games on the wire, alternate break (which they are already doing), ball spots..... they all can help equalize the field. I am not sure what changes if any are going to happen but I am sure we will find out soon enough.

The races are to 7 or 8 depending on the length of the table, Alternate break is fair.....I don't see anything out of wack with this tour now or in the near future....When they start handicapping then i got a problem, that is unless i get the 6-out from everyone:thumbup:
 
I don't think he needs to do too much. There are just a couple of known, pretty high caliber players that usually play.

Nothing against Shannon and Marge. They run great events. I guess when you play Shannon's speed, your idea of an amateur might be a little different than others :D .

One thing I did notice that the GSBT did in Greenville that I really liked was giving the first round out of the money free entry into another event later on. That gives alot of people a better reason to play the events and I think, if that is common practice now, it will help participation alot.

Mike <--- Still loves playing the GSBT events
