glad to hear there are more tournaments for 8s and up...
I never liked Alexanders. The owner is great for pool and has alot of events... but its bar tables... Too bad that guy (Ron Mearsel????) does not open a 9' foot room... Imagine how sweet that would be
BTW, I meant hide your skill so you can still play, not to "cheat". Nothing is worse than being told to leave cause you honed your skill /sigh
From what I remember, Alaxanders had a monthly tournament that was $500 or $1500 or something... 7's and under
It seamed as though all the big stuff excluded better players which was a real shame since serious pool players strive to get better only to be punished... It was/is a joke...
Doubt you will get raised at Metro. From what I recall, Uncle Jesse never raised anybody. I was there with a friend one night, a couple years ago, and he snapped off the tournament with no problem. He was officially a 5 lol but played around 8. It was 6 and under lol An 8 will destroy a true six... Anyways, the TD, Jazz, watched and did nothing about it and never raised him. I am pretty sure this friend is still a 5 on the books to this day...
Same goes for an 8 down there named Chris Wiseman???? (can't remember his last name) He won the metro tournaments countless times and was never raised to 9...
Anyways, cheers on your 2nd. Tournaments are ALOT of fun and placing makes it so much better.
