As I was watching some LAPD guys one came out and was laughing how he had lost a few seconds because he was “pieing off the room” instead of charging in.
It’s not that tough a competition, hell a 14 yr old came in 4th overall. (with a $70,000 prize table he did pretty well I’m sure.)
You just got to be fast, able to think on your feet and work well under pressure.
