    Where was Joshua Filler on day 3?

    He was not on the schedule for Day 3. I understand this is possible with the new scheduling system, allthough it seems odd to save him when he is playing so well. Then again, maybe it's smart to keep the players who do play warm and give them more matches on one day Howeverrrr, he didn't seem...

    Mosconi Cup - other format

    I know this horse has been beaten to death more than once. However still I'd like to see the change. The Euro team consists of players that play perfectly for 9-ball: riskfree, always in line, keep it simple pool. Great fundamentals and ofcourse that often results in brilliant precise...

    Hi everyone! For some time I have been chatting with Lucien Fatima about the idea to create a 3D pool game that is played in a weightless environment.

    What's your worst luck shot?

    Everyone has a bad luck shot in his 'poolcareer' that seems like yesterday because the odds of that happening where so unbelievable small. Whats yours? Mine was this year in competition. I had a really thin cut to the sidepocket, but I was pretty confident that I would make it because the 7...

    The importance of keeping a table free of dust and hairs

    Actually not important at all! Well it used to be important.. we saw pro's picking away dust and hairs from the table. To prevent kicks, but also not to affect rolls. Well nowadays we don't mind having a big lump of plastic on the table: the magic rack! In league play (and I saw video's on...

    Got a pooltable at work!

    I work in a treatmentcenter for people with addiction and psychological problems. Recently we had a pooltable installed so they can spend their time in a fun way. It's nothing fancy: cheap plastic balls, typical housecues and the walls and cloth are dodgy, to say the least. But Im running like...

    How far can you break?

    Imagine a pooltable that is hundreds of meters long. How far do you think you can break? Breaking straight would be important here too. Every degree you're off means you'll get less far..

    Why isnt there an Asian Mosconi team? (+make it 10-ball)

    Personally I think that Asia deserves a team as well. So many awesome players that cannot compete, because they are not American or European.. Is there a specific reason for this? Ofcourse it would become a threeway competition, so that would need a different setup. But that shouldnt be a...

    How can we get more recreational players to be competitional players?

    Icehockey pool

    A game I have been fantasizing about is icehockeypool. The table is exactly the same as a regular pool table, except the 'cloth' is a layer of ice. The balls are replaced by pucks, and walls are vertical instead of inclining. To prevent your hand freezing to the 'cloth' and to prevent...
