Breaking ground on new backyard pool hall

@David in FL
Is patiently waiting for his Diamond bar table with no firm delivery date, just a hopefully sometime in late October which is kind of like a ‘you’ll get it when you get it’ time frame.

Diamond has horrible customer service overall.
I’m glad I have a friend who gets them in. I just got the basic black but still I told him I want one. Gave him a deposit. 2 weeks later it was delivered to my house. Thank gid because I’m terrible at waiting lol

Gloves

Save the two bucks Lou.
You sound like an APA 4.
(laughing)

A straight grain hard rock maple shaft.

Bareback.

Oh yeah, if your opponent takes a break…as soon as you get the opportunity, throw his stupid billiard glove behind the cigarette machine.
Feign innocence.

This is the stupidity of the close minded pool players lol I’ve seen the best players in the world wearing gloves but it’s an Apa 4 thing right ? It makes sense to wear a glove. I’m not giving a single thought to wiping anything down. It gives me the same stroke every time no matter the humidity or tempature.

Also you touch anything of mine while I’m away from the table me and the people I play with will make sure your picking your teeth up off the floor. If not using a glove works for you that’s great just Don’t worry about what other people do. Worry about yourself.
Just wondering what the latest consensus is on the bestest, thinest, not really there glove.

I ask because the pool room I play at has relocated next to a lake and there's a high level humidity. Normally, I've always been able to go "bare back" but current circumstances have me reconsidering.

A few years ago I tried a Molinaria and hated it. Don't care about getting a dozen for $2... just want the best. What sayz you?

Lately I’ve liked the kamui gloves. They seem to fit the best and last. I remember using the unloved for a while but sometimes it still catches your skin. But they are worth a try 🤷

2026 WPA Predator Men's World 10 Ball Saigon

I don’t think they have mic’s set up there.

Obviously a huge cost difference between remote and flying 6 commentators to Vietnam and putting them up etc.

shouldn't be too difficult if all kinds of ragtag low budget streamers can do it. besides mark white lives next door, in thailand.

lots of commentary capable players are out of the tournament, like billy, darren etc

Cue info help; Gracie Cortez cue from the Philippines from the 1980’s

Not sure who made the cue, but I will say it is an ABSOLUTE copy of Joe Gold (Cognoscenti)
Cues as well as some of Mike Bender. Their cues have always been popular overseas.
Mike was working in Omega DPK Cues and Joey was just starting out, hanging out in their
shop a lot.
I can’t help you with who made the cue, but for its age it looks damn nice. For the time frame you cite, a good cuemaker was Edwin Reyes (no relation), but he had his own (good) style. Good luck.
