  1. I used to be a member at a Pool hall in Mississauga ( beside the LeBaron’s Sports store) where the reigning Women’s World Champion , a Canadian at the time, also practiced . Her male coach was easily twice as talented. There were at least 20 members at the club that could shut her out. Pool is the most hustled sport there is. I’m not surprised some guys are going to hustle everyone for money.

    1. Just asking, but what is about pool (snooker, billiards, etc.) that favours men? I would have expected this sport to be neutral or close to it between sexes.

      1. I also was thinking about this. The only thing that came to mind is the way mens and womens brains are wired. On average men tend to have a more spatial mind, so they can “see” patterns further ahead then women. Same in chess.

        1. There are many more male outliers than female. For better and worse. And the male outliers are far beyond the female outliers in terms of their extremeness. When you see two people battling for an “ultimate” “pro” event, these people are outliers. Most women just aren’t stupid enough to play pool nineteen hours a day for their entire lives. For a trophy.

  2. Women (gay men, actually) who aren’t interested in dates … obviously. Just interested in pushing an agenda with their stick handling

  3. I’m reliably told testosterone has nothing to do with the beer-drinking sports.

  4. Orwellian, for sure. The Party says these are women, so they are. A cat? fight would be hilarious, each angry that someone was grifting on their grift.

  5. Small Balls.

    And not just the transvestites. The British powers-that-be have earned that appellation as well.

  6. What a surprise to the two mentally ill players to find themselves still playing another guy. Did you notice the one player even has a fully mature beer belly. Very feminine. Grifters.
