At carom, the player is allowed to ask the ref to reconsider his call one time, but it's not an argument or a discussion.

Will that work well with the down-angle on the facing? Maybe a template like they use in snooker would be easier. Could be at the "correct" angle and then look for the deviation.

buy some time with a good instructor.

best money you can do that is well spent.

Its the indian not the arrow……

I wish that was the truth! I will be doing what I can to get a Texas One Shot exhibition match televised (are you reading this Max?) I will put up some prize money to make it happen.

I get it, you like the WNBA. Good for you. But try to understand my post in reference to this freaking thread.

Whatever pittance they get paid, why is it that the NBA pays its players a LOT more than the WNBA? Why does professional golf, baseball, football?

Again, it shouldn't be that difficult to understand.

pay in most endeavors is based on your productivity. and that relates to how much money you save or bring in.

in sports it is your money value to the owners. and that money ultimately mostly comes from the spectators spending. and the more viewers the more money all get paid.

women's and youngsters sports do not get as many viewers so the participants and owners similarly make less and rightly so.

changing your game based on those parameters is a losing way to proceed. as it cuts your total chances of getting in the money,

shows a poor understanding of how to play.

I've played in Phoenix for 10 plus years, it's not just the dry tables and balls. I can't remember if I've played on brand new cloth in Phoenix or not. All the pool halls across the country tend to blend together... so maybe it's a combination of the dryness and the new cloth and balls.

That’s what he said. The combination of things.
