its all what you are used to and what you prefer. neither is better. all it is is personal opinion.

at one house i have an old ventura 2 brunswick 9 foot. it is a high quality table that looks furniture like besides looks beautiful.
would not trade it out for any other table anywhere. and would recommend it for most any player for his house if he can stand decent sized pockets.

@dr_dave is this a foul or no? It looked good to me, but ref said no good.

i know the frozen rule. but it looked totally crazy. it's very hard for me to say it looked good, even if it was. wild.

must surely have been frozen. if not, quinten is a madman

Sad but true



Why does CSI not have representation on this forum, if they do, why do they never respond to criticism or posts about how they handle these situations...except like a small child, and ban them for expressing their OWN views. Pathetic

If I remember correctly, decades ago Ozzy posted here. Some members complained about the CSI PPV stream , he responded poorly knocking some members and folks here went down hard on him. I think after that he quit never posted (though he may have posted under other username). He deserved it. He may be nice guy to his friends family but came across as a douche here

I also like saying thanks for racking but you even suck at that

Jason<----always making new friends

I shook hands with a guy after a match and he said, “thanks for the lesson”
Kind of cold but all I could come up with was, “no charge “
We had a few beers after that so all was good!

single elim starts tomorrow right?

Publicly disparaging the table sponsor, management, and arbitration?

shucks, I don't know, what would you call it?

I think dirty laundry relates more to personal private matters. All of what you mention is work/ business related

Pongers called over the ref and he said something after inspecting the balls. I have to assume he called it frozen or Pongers wouldn’t have shot through the balls.

If so, shouldn’t be a foul (nothing in the WNT Rules overrule the WPA rule on this). My only guess as to Marcel is that he might have said he can’t overrule the referee. WNT rules say:

“If Table Referees are in charge of the matches, there shall be no right for either player to ask for a second opinion; the referees are in sole charge of the matches and their decision is final”.

That was Quinten Pongers' shot against Glont. If the balls had been declared frozen, there was no foul in the contact itself. Shooting into a frozen ball is legal. The speed is irrelevant.

I tend to be honest, sorry I hurt feelings. People should be happy having place to play.


If it is not to liking equipment is crap, dirty, owner is a-hole, or payouts or andded monies are not as advertised.

Don’t complain, speak with wallet. Don’t go, dont participate, less stress.

I disagree a bit here.
Yes, we should be happy that we have a place to play, BUT it’s not for free… we pay good money per hour and expecting decent equipment and maintenance is pretty basic.
