[UPDATES] U.S. Amateur Championships 2007

Watch out for Jason Ritchko. If his break is on, he's extremely tough to beat. I was playing out of my mind at a KBP event and drew Jason. I didn't miss a shot, but I scratched or broke dry on every break. He definitely took advantage. I had an advantage in every area but one, and that's all it takes.

The one thing that bothers me about the event (aside from the obnoxious TD at the PA location - I'm going to drive further to avoid that guy next year) is that since it's APA sponsored the persist in using the silly APA rules.

The "prize" is a spot in the US Open - very prestegious, very pro. You should be able to a) push out in 9 ball b) win a game with 3 fouls c) have an open table after the break if any ball is made in 8 ball.

Also I agree - the ridiculously short races for the women are just silly.

the push-out rule was in effect this weekend.
