I have not read the whole thread
I apologize…..but
The probate people and the attorneys have to understand the status of the items that were not joe’s own cues
And what was not his but given to him for repair or consignment
The ones trying to screw the rightful owners are scumbags
In my opinion

I have been using the JB rugged pool case 3x6.

It's super rugged and practical with great pockets..........

They are on Seyberts for like $270.........

I am not a fan of alternate break either, it makes the match too predictable if either player gets off to a 3-0 start. It's kind of the worst of both worlds since it makes comebacks harder, while also prolonging lopsided matches.

Same here. Those who defend alternate break tend to cite tennis, but in tennis, the serve is a giant advantage. For example, in today's US Open men's tennis final, there were just three service breaks in thirty games played, so the server won 90% of the games. Alternate serve is a no brainer in pro tennis.

Combining the stats at the last two WNT majors (Arizona Open, US Open 9ball), per AtLarge stats, the breaker won 234 racks out of 394 racks played, or 59% of the racks played. The breaker's advantage in today's nine ball is not so great as to require alternate break to make it fair.

As a fan, I find alternate break less interesting to watch. There is nothing more electrifying than seeing a player keep the table for racks at a time, and the fans have always responded to it when it happens. The match often cited as the greatest ever at the World 9ball was Wu Jiaqing vs Po Cheng Kuo in 2005 --- in the race to 17 final, Wu stepped up to the table trailing 16-12 and ran out the match to win the world 9ball championship. That could not have happened with alternate break. Pool has always been a game of momentum, and alternate break spoils it for me.

With alternate break and no shot clock, I'm having a harder and harder time taking the China Open seriously these days.

Chicago area made!

The thing about Castillo Butterfly cases, they Don't have 'Zippered' inserts!

Tiger & Longoni do!

98% of 3C players play with 'Rubber Grips', they don't slide well in sleeves!

Hence the 'Zippered' Butt sleeves!

Yes, big difference if one is using rubber grips.

Castillo has JBs lining, and I think they still make their own lining as well, I think the lining type is optional, but I haven't looked lately.

I would guess they would make a zippered lining if you want one. They are still a custom shop as far as I know.

First off, stop with the hostile attitude. I don't HAVE to clarify. If I do, it's out of the good will of my heart. I don't give a $h17, (if all of a sudden it's turned into an argument), about winning. I know I'm right. I've meted it out over years playing in multiple conditions with different types of equipment, I honestly don't give a $h17 what you think. Everything I post on this forum is only to help other people.

If you have an honest question and interest in what I'm saying, fine, don't get an attitude with me please. If you're just of a mind to creating problems or attempting to prove me wrong, I'm not interested, go find someone else. I'll just stop responding and/or put you on ignore and continue to give information to the people who care and want to improve or I won't. It's not to my benefit and it doesn't matter to me one way or the other.

Now, are you interested in hearing an answer, or creating more tension and drama?

You seem angry. Not sure why. I suppose it's because I'm questioning some things you said. This is a public forum, a place where people go to discuss ideas and topics that interest them. Someone puts forth a statement and others are free to agree or disagree.
Usually if you disagree it's nice to give your reasons why, or put forth an alternate theory, or some evidence that disputes the OP claim. Then maybe the OP comes back with further details or evidence backing up his assertions.

For the most part I've responded by questioning or attacking your assertions, not you personally. Your responses, over numerous posts, have been the following:

Well you're an idiot if you watch that video and still think it's misleading
but I would suggest not running your mouth about something that you don't know about
I promise you I'm right, you can either learn from it or don't no skin off my junk
I know I'm right
I honestly don't give a $h17 what you think.
Yeah, well then you are just limited on knowledge and don't understand BHE, and pivot points

None of which speaks to the topic at hand. I guess we'll have disagree, that's all.
