Re: POLL ...2011....big events !!
I voted Other for Joe Moore joining the ACF this year.
I think he's a great young talent with a lot of ambition. His showing at the tournaments he's played at show he could become a contender for Masters level titles before too long and his willingness to pick up and run with the ratings seems to have jumpstarted some conversations about change that are much needed.

Hey Jason,
Believe it or not, and I swear this to be true, I was originally going to put "A new star.....the emergence of Joe Moore on the scene.." as a choice, I also wanted to place the Moiseyev 11 man NT victory, ans the Moiseyev Vs. Laverty II 11 Man WCM, and a few others, but there can only be ten choices.
I picked, in no particular order...(that's why I gave three choices)...
1 The Moiseyev Vs. Borghetti WCM, as I always consider a WCM the highlite of any year,
2 The live coverage which was fantastic in and of itself, seperate and apart from the match. Somehow, this should happen for all WCM's,
3 Salot's book, "Slocum Strokes"...just an incredible piece of work and research on Salot's part.
Regards

PS I also wanted to point out that king's US Freestyle Ty win was his 4th, the first to do so....
