if you are winning 10-0....

[golfnumeric]

If I was winning 10-0, I would be dreaming!

 

[red5]

its gotta depend on the person

if there a friend of a respectable person i never beat them 11-0

but if there somebody whos got an attitude then im comfortable beating them 11-0

same for me !

it depends the oponnent's spirit i m facing

 

[poltery]

yeah if your opponent is that rude you would really shut him off with a ball

 

[PP 24-7]

I can agree w/ that. Just keep it on the table and let the other person find ways to earn that point.

 

[GECA]

In my country, if we are winning a set 10-0, we are used to -generally- miss the last point so to not beat the opponent 11-0, but 11-1...

Yeah man,I agree,I don't like 11-0.

Exhibition time
Give the point though.. Its like a table tennis ethique..

 

[azlan]

We call it 'professional courtesy' to give a point to our opponents. Most of the times, we don't have to wait until the last point of the game. You can make it 'easier' for your opponents to earn a point at 8 or 9 before finishing them off. We should never 'give' an outright point to your opponents, say by intentionally missing a shot or serving into the net for example. It's an ungentlemanly conduct. That one point, they have to earn it...you just making it just a lil easier for them to attack and earn the point.

 

[PandaMike]

Usually I gave away a point because of respect ..... but when the oppenent is very rude, I want to win 11-0 and enjoying the oppenents face after that
sorry for my english it's late

I agree completely! I will give them a point if they are a respectable player. If not...then I will beat them 11-0.

When I'm winning 10-0 i make mistake with serve or reserve.
I don't like to win 11-0. Because it isnt a great felling for the opponent.
I dont want to lose 11-0 so then i can't win 11-0.

 

[Matt Hetherington]

I agree with the above, losing 11-0 is hugely disappointing so I would never do it to someone else unless I REALLY had a point to make and even then winning 11-1 would be satisfying enough for me

 

[TT Guru]

ttDaily should make a poll for this.

 

[Freds]

I'll give the point, but try to disguise it, so it doesn't look like I'm doing it on purpose. Otherwise I feel is a bit condescending.

 

[MildSeven]

I'll give the point, but I think its a stupid practice. If I get beaten 11-0 i don't mind at all. I think giving the point is actually disrespectful. Its pretty much saying you look down on someone so much that you think they are not even capable of fighting for a point, so they must be handed one for free.

I know that when I play someone capable of beating me 11-0, I want them to play 100%, that is what makes me interested and teaches me the most and makes me try hardest.

 

[Justchill]

I always give the point at 10-0, but never at 9-0 or 8-0 !
Happened to me a few times..

 

[Ash]

To me it depends...While I always give the last point, some people dont.....Also some people find it offensive that you gave them a point(supercup 2011) ....What I was surprised to see was that once during a match, an opponent was extremely upset that my friend had won the toss and opted to receive serve....Is that something that happens often?

I think it happens regularly. If your opponent starts with the service, you get to serve at 9-9 in the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th. So it can give a big advantage at crucial moments. I don't see how someone would get upset about that though, it is completely normal and legal xD

 

[Dibosan]

Never happened to me, but I'd rather lose 11x0. For me it is the same as your opponent says "Hey, because of your incompetence, I'm giving to you one point.
