    World 14.1 Cumulative Player List

    Gene, Good work on this! I too went every year. I also played in the tourney in 2013.(Surprised to see my name on the list, as us amateurs are sometimes under the radar, where we belong) Anyway, I have some photos from 2006, and I see Megan Minerich and Nick Varner, along with some other...

    Pool hall South of Tampa Bay

    Loren, Thanks much for your gracious invitation! I'll keep it in mind, but I must add that I'm not a big fan of driving longer distances anymore (especially on that route 75/275, and boy, is my pick-up truck a gas hog! Wanaque is in Northern Jersey if memory serves. I've never been there, but...

    Pool hall South of Tampa Bay

    Livingston's (South) mini review Just moved to Sarasota/Venice area from Jersey. Noticed this thread and thought I'd chime in. I went to Livingston's (the one on Clark Road) to see for myself, and was actually surprised to find a really nice room with Brunswick 9 footers in pretty good shape...

    On The Road Again with Perfect Aim....

    "Chalk up" another satisfied customer Gene, Thanks much for taking the time to clear up a question I had from your dvd. In light of the fact that you already have a lot on your plate between your health, finances, business, travel and game, not to mention reporting on here, it meant a lot. You...

    14.1 worlds photos from day 5

    A 3.5 hour drive for me, mostly due to bad traffic once I was within 10 miles of the Carom Cafe, but it was worth it! Click on this link, then click "slideshow" near upper right. Enjoy! http://www.flickr.com/photos/bills-shots (I don't post much, so I'm not sure if link is clickable or you must...

    Park billiards cafe and sports bar, Bronx, NY

    Anyone know anything about this place? I'm going to have a few hours to kill in the area and wonder if it's a possibility. How's the tables? How's the area? (looks a little dodgy on the google street view)Thanks!

    In the kitchen and confused

    Thanks all. I now realize that if I didn't cheap out and download only the 14.1 section of the WPA version 21.12.2007 standardized rules(instead of buying an actual BCA rule book), I would have seen rule 6.7.7 in the first place. I now also see that the WPA rules have almost the exact wording...

    In the kitchen and confused

    What is my best shot when faced with the following situation: There are 2 balls left on the table, both of which are in the kitchen. My opponent shoots at one of them, misses, and pockets the cue ball. Both object balls are still in the kitchen. I then have ball in hand in the kitchen, but...

    14.1 final on clock?

    Bob, You're right about needing to improve the system. There was way too much beeping going on as the refs got used to the watches. (Don't they make the analog ones that you and I grew up with anymore?) At one point, Kempter confronted the ref about it cause it was distracting him. Of course...

    14.1 final on clock?

    I could be mistaken, but wasn't the final match between Ortmann and See supposed to have gone on the clock? It sure seemed like it lasted long enough. Doesn't matter now, but it could have changed things. It had a big effect on last years final, when both players (Engert/Hohmann) games were...
