    AZB main page articles

    Wondering if anyone feels this way: The main page articles are almost exclusively pro international events and some national events. Honestly those articles are way less interesting to me then the amateur events. The OKC event with the huge payouts should be a front-page article. Am I wrong...

    Request some input on a race length and how to add money to sweeten the pot

    Mitch, I guess we could do that. Maybe set an alarm on a phone, when it goes off that will be the last rack? Maybe have a win by 2 criteria as well?

    Request some input on a race length and how to add money to sweeten the pot

    A local player who is about 650 FG and I (670FG) are trying to play a long set of either 9 ball or 10 ball on a bar table. I want to play for about a 3-hour time period so I am trying to guess what the appropriate race length should be. As a metric for comparison, I played the ghost on the...

    Phil, i was in a match with a friend and i scratched but recorded a missed ball instead. I made the mistake of hitting the back button on my android phone when I should have selected undo last action and it took me out of the "workout" i was in to the main menu. Well all the data collected in...

    14.1 Hail Mary Shots

    I really enjoyed that video. Got me thinking how to get onto a wired ball in the rack. Often i will find one but can't get to it from the proper angle/direction. Thanks for posting.

    How to improve with only 30 minutes a day?

    This is exactly what Bert Kinister had me doing, table length stop shots from corner to opposite corner. Not just any stop shot, but perfectly replace the object ball with the cue Ball in a paper donut. I used to shoot this shot 100 times a day when I had my own table, and maybe hit it perfect 3...

    What's up with Rodney Morris?

    Truth. Meeting Earl changed my ambitions of being a pro. I still love playing but it's about #10 in my priorities. Thank God.

    One American in final 16 in Spain

    I hope he finishes well!!! Nick is a good dude and I'm glad to see him progress as a player. He opened is home to me a few times while visiting Phoenix for tournaments. I saw that he just got done playing in the Texas Open. He won a few matches in the 1p but I don't know how he did in the 9ball.

    Pool in Tucson

    Yeah man, life has provided me an opportunity to start playing again. Not much but I practice once a week and try to do one tournament a month. Been working on Dr. Dave's BU exams and scheduling Salotto challenge matches. Not many here in Tucson are using Salotto it seems (1/5 successful...

    Pool in Tucson

    I just left Omaha. Big John's needs to refelt their gold crowns. I like how often they do tournaments though.

    I'm looking forward to trying your "Billiard Manager" app on Android. Do the data Analysis tools work for 9 & 10 ball as well?
