I gave them a call yesterday but didnt get any answers. I'll try back today.

I will be at the finals at Shooters next weekend, I also am going to do my best to get out and practice and not play like a donkey. Seems no matter what I dont play well at the 404. Should be a good sized field, wonder who will already be gone to Vegas for BCA/Predator 10 ball though.....

I know Jason said he was going to play BCA and Erik and Johnny are going to the 10 ball.

I think it depends on when they all leave for Vegas. I am not sure when BCA and the 10 ball starts. They could all be there but I know they're all eventually going to Las Vegas.
 
Like I said, sorry - it was just a rant, I know sometimes joking about HC's are in fun and amongst regulars. I used to be a regular tournament player, mostly at shooters and Silver Tip. Not anymore though, never complained to anyone about my HC, but have seen many players who are noticeably better than myself become a lower HC just by whining to the tourney director. Maybe I just feel a little unfair hearing these complaints actually go through because the director is too soft. I'm not in any way trying to put down a legitimate HC, but when you hear constant complaints about HC's, I would just suggest that you practice more and prove that you can improve your HC instead of laughing at how low your HC is. In the end of a tournament, it is always the one who played a better "game", not the one with the best HC.

Peace ;)

What you may not realize is that there is a bunch of us who all know each other, they all go often and are social to each other. Simple jokes, dont take anything you read on the interwebs too serious......

XXX: did you ever answer my question to how much money was left over from the 30K tour? When is the revival? I still predict.... never.

I understand 100%. We arent all close friends but we know each other if we are at the same place, its all in good fun. If I was crushing people, I would expect for them to bump my handicap.

There is a big difference in handicaps from one place to another.

There are players who spot me 3 games at silvertip that I used to have to play even at the 404 tournaments. Figure that one out.

I also split once (1/2) at Silvertip and my handicap was instantly bumped, I finished in the money another time with a small field and I was bumped again. From 5 to 7 in two weeks. Totally unjustified of course but I happened to play the tournament directors brother at the time and magically Im bumped. Now Raph runs them again and he laughed that the other guy bumped me.

I know Im not great and unfortunately I hit a decent shot every now and then that makes me come back day in day out to try and improve.
 
You guys really need to stop b1tching about handicaps already. Either step your game up, or don't play in the tournament at all....problem solved.

Speaking of silver tip, ive never been there, whats the tourny like on sundays?
 
Its almost time for the tournament.

Anyone have any ideas?

Looks like Klatt wont be playing as he is already in Vegas playing in the BCA. Brittany and Janet are also there.
 
Here's my picks for top 5 finishers at shooters

Mario, Johnny, one 8 and two 6's

A 6 wins it and Mario gets second.

Pretty solid picks.

Im thinking.....

They're paying 16 spots as far as I know based on how many they expect to show up.

Here are people I expect to see in the money.

John Morra
Alex Radomski
Dean McN
Nito Bucais
Erik Hjor

Results dont lie, I havent played well at the 404. Im going to do my best though.

I will give the mask idea some thought, I did pick up a wrestling mask a couple weeks back when Mrs Dan and I went to Mexico. ;)
