I really do not think pool becoming an Olympic sport would be of much benefit to pool, at least not in the US. Ever if pool was added to the Olympics, unless pool players start wearing ice skates, it would get no TV time in the US. Being in the Olympics does not make a sport popular or add to...

Sounds like fun. I have a video camera setup on my home table.

I have not participated in a raffle, but I do like the idea and I think For Sale in the right place. I am curious about your opinion on this regarding the people getting burnt and "bad press". As we all know, people have been burnt buying and selling cues here. Do you think it will be more...

As yally said, handbrake. Handbrake is made for both PCs and Macs. I believe it started as Mac only. I use it on an old Mac mini all the time. Works great, but on my old power PC mac it take a couple of hours to rip a DVD to ipod format. If it did not work on your Mac, you may have...

Damn, I hope he is not talking about me, but he probably is. Here is my side of the story: I did not tip the pizza guy tonight. In my defense, my order was wrong and I picked it up, it was not delivery. I mean, really, who tips the pizza guy when you go pick it up? Did I really do...

I have a drop ceiling in my basement. The ceiling tiles seem to dampen sound pretty well. There is also the sound of the balls dropping in the pockets to deal with. Williebetmore came up with a nice solution to this. He put little round sponges in the pockets. Of course, the best thing you...

An earlier poster mentioned this subject has been discussed recently. True, but more importantly, this subject has been discussed endlessly for at least the last 11 years I have been reading online pool discussions. What has been resolved or learned with all this virtual brain power directed...

I used this when I recovered my table. It is a booklet with plenty of pictures. It was the first time I have ever covered a table and it turned out pretty well. http://www.mccauleyweb.com/secrets.htm

You should change you question to "Question about how to search the forums" Don't take this the wrong way, but this has been discussed many many times over the years. There are many threads with great information about Bert's tapes including lists of the good ones and the bad ones. It is...

Well, somebody has to say it. Gas to Pool Tourny .. $15.00 Pool tourny Entry fee .. $12.00 Spending the evening playing pool .. priceless.

My high break is a whopping 24. Not impressive, but I did this within the first hour of ever of every playing the game (http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=50047&highlight=snooker). I have only played about 5 hours or so of the game in my life. It was a lot of fun, and I would love...

Sorry, I work days. However, Billiards Plus on the corner of Bethel and Sawmill will break it down, move it to your house, and set it up for a reasonable price. I think it is something like $250 for the service.

First thing, in my opinion, is to forget the talk of playing pro. The lottery is more likely and defiantly more profitable. Also, to focus on something like that will probably be detrimental to your game. For the 99% of us that don?t play and the pro level, the game is about the journey, not...

There are lots of established straight pool leagues around. I run one in Columbus, Ohio - and we are much better players that that Indy bunch despite them toasting us 7 matches to 1 last spring :) Joking aside, I sent you an email with my contact info, I would be more than happy to share with...

If space is a problem, then you first need to decide what size table you should get. Take a look at http://www.easypooltutor.com/article180.html for an explanation of what you need to look at. The table you posted a link to is an 8 foot table. This is probably the most common size for a home...

Forget about walmart and the like, total crap. Get a quality used table. Check out craigslist.org for your city. Your newspaper classified section is also a good place to look. For way less than 2k you can pick up a very nice used table, particularly if you are looking at 8 footer. Every...

Dragon promotions said the last few matches from the World 14.1 were tapes and you be up on DranonPromotions.com and propoolvideos.com a week after the event. I don't see them there yet. Anybody know the status?

Interesting. Might get in the way when your back hand in near the table edge but easy enough to take it off at that time.
