To me, it has a very niche reaction. It's one of those balls that when it's working, you'll have a look that nobody else will, but it requires some pretty specific conditions. I think the cover is a little too strong for the core. It's strong off the dry, but doesn't rev in oil, so for wet/dry house shots it can be a little touchy. However, it helped make me a few hundred dollars at a tournament a couple weeks ago. While everyone else in the building was fighting with the game 3 and 4 transition, I was able to stay on top of it because I wasn't getting the over/under everyone else was. Head burn was forcing everyone else inside, but the track was soft so it was through the nose or washout. I went to the HRS and stayed right on top of the burn. No early read, plenty of length, and just enough pop on the back. Won me a high game pot and kept me in the 8 game Eliminator that I eventually won at the end of the day. It may not come out of the bag very often, but it's not one that's going to ever get left at home.
