okay rich, here is the question.

would you rather all 14.1 tables in pool rooms be less than 4.5 inches that are open to the public to play.
or even all the tables you play on be these pockets of 4.1 or so.

what shaw did was incredible but on a table the likes of which you do not find anywhere in public for the most part.
although i believe they made it the standard for world record high runs.

4.5 is good

true but unfortunately many pool rooms emulate what the pros play on and that drives away the rec. players which can be a big part of profits.


not like the sports you mentioned that the amateurs didn't adjust to change over to the pro's specs . like pool tables are changing or have.

Gosh…..I was mistaken…..it is just the color……I didn’t notice a color option on Seybert’s .

Just credit me with a foot in mouth experience. But back to my original resistance, why
would anyone make pink chalk? Have you seen many pink covered pool tables? It is just
a absurd color choice because too many players incorrectly apply chalk and typically will
apply too much as they generally do. And pink is an awful color for chalk debris on any cloth.

I agree with you as a general rule. However, with the new chalks it’s much less of an issue. I’ve seen people with pink Taom on blue cloth and there are only a few small marks after a set. This isn’t shocking to me since my green V10 or Pagulayan also don’t leave much of a mark on blue cloth. I won a free Turning Point chalk in pink and used it on my breaker and again saw almost no cloth marks and the grey Dr V I’m using now on my breaker leaves almost no marks.

That said, I personally would stick to blue or green on blue cloth if I was buying it.

tournament directors would do more for pool if they gave invites to celebrities with entry, and free room and board or at least something.

then a chance for some video or tv coverage then or in the future.

and companies like predator. imagine getting a celeb playing on video of some kind with your cue brand and maybe shirt.

like a sports figure. or movie star.

and have a celebrity tournament. just them.
