Does anyone know what Matchroom uses on their tables for the facing angle on the WNT tables? I understand they're 4" pockets. I should;ve taken some measurements at Yuma but I didn't think about it.

Could be measured from a top-down photo…

Why not bigger so you can fit more than juts a pool table, will there be heat and AC?


Why not 5" corner and 5.5" side pockets

Bro has so much land he's just randomly dropping buildings all over the backyard. First a lawn shed, then a swimming pool, now a pool room... next it'll be another garage, a basketball court, or maybe a pickleball court. Serious question though, how do you get to the pool room when it's raining or snowing without getting wet ?

Can we see a picture of the whole property? I'm curious how it's all laid out. Did you actually have a master plan, or did you just point at random spots in the yard and tell the contractors, "Put it there!"?

Chua is more focused on providing for his family and he makes more money in Chinese pool with less expenses on WNT.
He also dropped all his social media activities.

Can’t really blame him.

maybe he switched to we-chat or whatever social media is called in china. chua is of chinese ancestry and i think he speaks some too. i do believe ko brothers are making social media content in china, and selling their stuff too

The KO brothers are doing well, so could he if he prepares himself well

It’s not blasphemy and it’s fun but not serious.
Part of the snooker game is dealing with the table’s specs. It changes the game’s tactics and shot selection.

It will be more challenging the other way around, play pool on snooker table…

Gorst comes from Russian Billiards (Pyramid), same cloth, bigger table, small pockets and bigger balls.
He should be able to adjust quite fast

Is it just me, or did this tab change in DigitalPool? Was looking for the bracket tab, then just went through them. Odd to call the bracket view "Viewer." Don't recall it ever being like that.

Assuming any reasonable tip curvature, if edge of tip touches the vertical line as depicted, the contact part of the tip is diameter dependent. I use 13s and sometimes a 12. Both provide ample "leverage" to get the ball spinning.

Click to expand...

“Assuming any reasonable tip curvature”, the edge of your tip cannot touch the ball before passing the miscue limit - if it does your tip is too flat, prone to miscue and can’t produce maximum spin. Tips of any size need at least 60 degrees of arc to prevent that.

It’s the curvature, not the size (seems like I’ve heard that before).

P.S. Your tip must be just about completely flat for its edge to contact the center of the cue ball as in your pic. Only good for center ball hits.

for your information
Traditional center-hung fixtures cast light from above the table's center, which can create glare and uneven shadows, while perimeter LED lighting distributes light evenly around the table edges, reducing shadows and glare for clearer visibility. Perimeter lighting also meets tournament brightness standards like 520 LUX and is favored for professional play and live streaming.

Comparison of Traditional Lighting and Perimeter Lighting for Pocket Billiard Tables​

Overview​

Lighting is crucial for enhancing visibility and playability on a billiard table. Two common types of lighting are traditional center-hung fixtures and perimeter LED lighting. Each has distinct characteristics that affect gameplay.

Key Differences​

Benefits of Each Type​

Traditional Center-Hung Lighting​

• Provides a classic look that complements traditional game rooms.
• Can be customized with various shades and styles to match decor.

Perimeter LED Lighting​

• Ideal for professional settings, enhancing visibility for serious players.
• Reduces glare and shadows, improving overall gameplay experience.
• Better suited for live streaming due to consistent lighting quality.

Conclusion​

Choosing between traditional and perimeter lighting depends on your specific needs and preferences. For casual play and aesthetic appeal, traditional lighting may suffice. However, for serious players and professional settings, perimeter LED lighting offers superior performance and comfort.
