I don't how I managed to drop the ball on this one, but I still have about 16 hours of their match from several years ago on video that I taped for them. I asked at the time if it would be ok to tape and got their permission to do so. I would be looking to send the tapes to someone who could edit them and turn them into a format for all to see if that would be approved by both players.
I was watching one done by Sappo, and tried to PM him yesterday. I'm not sure if he will do it so I'm wondering if anyone else can do it. I am no good at post production as evidenced by the fact I'm asking about this years after the fact.
Mike I would hold on to that video. Its the only one. And one day it could be worth a million dollars. That was a pretty long session. John won the session. Anybody that would watch that match. Would spot me 8 to 3 or more.
The reason I remember the match. Is because after 8 or ten. Hours they told us to get of the table. And go and play on another table.
How do you tell someone to get of a table after playing on the table for ten hours Playing a freeze out session. I relay couldn't believe it. That was the first time in my life that ever happened. And the last time. It would have been just as easy to tell the tournament payers.
To go and play on another table. You do not tell two people after ten hours to go and play there freeze out session on another table. It shows poor taste. And its not like we are not paying for playing. And I didn't come two thousand miles to gamble. And have someone tell me to go and play on a different table.
This would not have happened anywhere else in the country.It doesn't mean anything to me. But I brought it up so it doesn't happen to someone else. What would have happened if there were no other tables open. Or available?
This should have all been figured out ahead of time. And should not have happened. Or let the people who are playing a session no ahead of time. That the table will be used for the tournament at a certain time. Then things like this wont happen.
This is the worst thing that can happen while playing a session. And it shows no consideration and respect to the people playing. Something like this should never happen. And believe me I no what to do and how you treat people. I had pool rooms too. And tournaments. And I would never do something like that to two customers. Playing a session.
You never chase people of a table. Who are playing a freeze out. Who have already been playing for ten hours. And go and tell them to go and play on another table. What if I would have said I am not changing tables. What happiness to our game and freeze out?
