Isn't it an amazing opportunity that reasonably seasoned 1p players have when they can wrangle competitively with top players and not come out of it feeling like they never had a chance? In what other important individual contest of skill and experience do 2nd and 3rd tier players, hell maybe even 4th tier on occasion, have to beat the top dogs? It wouldn't happen in tennis, golf, chess, fencing, boxing, ping pong. The pros would easily dominate the non-pros in those disciplines.
Poker, I suppose...anybody can catch a rush of cards.
What is it about pool, 1p in particular, that makes this so? Just enough luck to give the underdog a fighting chance?
What other discipline is like pool in this respect?
