APA captain is playing me too strategically and it’s not fun. Is this normal or should I threaten to quit if he doesn’t start playing me more fairly?
I was recently recruited to join an APA team since they needed low level players to balance out their team. I just signed up, so I’m currently at a 3, but I’ve probably only played pool like 10 times before so most 3s are better than me.
However, my team captain always puts me against really high level players as a strategic move. This isn’t very fun for me. The first time was okay, as the guy I was going against was pretty nice about it. However, the second time was really miserable. The guy I was going against seemed annoyed over the fact that he had to go up against me. The first round he was playing a lot of defensive shots to block me, but after I kept scratching he just cleared the table. The next few rounds I spend less than 10% of the time playing and the other team just seemed annoyed with us.
I’ve asked to go against more evenly matched players, but he says that’s a bad strategy because I’m over ranked for a three. However, I feel like I’ll never be able to improve with this strategy, and it’s honestly not fun at all. Getting my ass whooped repeatedly kind of puts me in a bad moon. Should I threaten to quit over this.
