Goldstein has pictures of Emily or Barry.
What is this obsession with ball in hand only in the kitchen? Allows for ticky-tacky intentional fouls when opponent has balls only in the kitchen. Totally disagree. Fouls are to be punished not rewarded in certain circumstances.disappear bar tables
only jump with your playing cue, cannot use your break cue to jump
allow pushout after break, ball in hand in kitchen after foul and spot balls pocketed if foul occurs
Not is APA, "All balls matter"was our league name, our league was scored by how many balls the opponent had left on the table, so if you broke and ran the score was 10-0, so all balls really did matter.......Not sure how it started, but to be fair, banning "All Balls Matter" might be considered a bit uptight. Most of the older banned names are sexually suggestive.
Be careful with Magic Eraser. It can be like fine sandpaper.Magic eraser with some ball cleaner on it will remove almost any mark. If it's a scuff or a gouge, they probably need a new ball.
All the balls need to stop movingIs that a foul if nothing contacts the cue ball while it's rolling?
McDermott's 8-piece laminated i-Pro and i-Pro Slim shafts are hollow, with a hollow carbon fiber rod inside, and a wood dowel inside that:I have several customs with lam shafts. I wonder how many of those are hollow?
wow...I have had A LOT of cool cues go through my hands, but this might be the COOLEST...... how do you beat the Rat Pack, built by a legend, and ordered by the best to ever do it......
This cue may be available, so feel free to reach out if you have interest. This one certainly wouldn't hurt my feelings to keep though.

1 _ get back to 2 shot roll-out ( i think that's what it's called) in 9 ball....1 - Make all new cloth play like broken in cloth. Very few people enjoy the first week of new cloth and it's really a different game
2 - Alternate break for everything. To come in line with all major sports, closer matches, increase fairness and to reduce overall importance of the break shot and reward overall ability more
3 - 4 inch pockets as maximum size for all professional play and 4.5 standard for amateur. Misses create pressure and excitement
Honorable mention to using chess clocks to manage match times and slow play. Ie each player starts with 30 mins and add 30 secs every time the players swap chairs. Better than a shot clock and can be run without a ref
What about your 3?
