Ordered The New Diamond Today!

I am looking for a table as I moved back to CT from Florida and my new home has a 20X 28 bonus room - I called Diamond and they said 99% of new tables are pro cut - they did not seem to want to do the 4 3/4 - I think that I will go with a good used GC. $8500 was their quote on a 9 foot Pro Am
I would believe that, I ordered a league cut table in 2007 from Diamond.
Aaron was my contact at Diamond, and I would call once every three weeks or so and check in on the progress. Like what Korsakoff stated in the other Diamond thread, Aaron asked me if I was sure I wanted the bigger pockets? I changed my mind and told Him Pro cut.

I actually heard guys in the background cheering, I must have been on a speaker phone. :cool:

List of pro players who stick to wood as their playing shaft

I've talked with a few actual no-shit staff players. All deny being leaned on to use a shaft/cue. WTF difference does ANY of this make?? The whole point i'm trying to make is : WHY THE F&*K does there need to be a list of players using this-or-that shaft?? What is the point?? Answer: there is none other than maybe to give some people a warm-n-fuzzy feeling knowing that someone uses what they do. Must be so rough to be so insecure because of what cue this/that person does/doesn't play with.
Besides fan-girling, I would say such discussion could potentially help decide the actual value of a cue or shaft. Is it really necessary to spend $500 on a $5 carbon tube? Why are so many players using this, that or the other? How much do they get paid to do that? Etc etc

Stu, I don't get out much these days and for a long time didn't watch any pool streams. Just lost interest and was busy with other things. But lately I've begun to follow our sport again and watch some matches. Moritz stood out for me when I watched him play. He's just got the right stuff!
I'm glad your checking things out again and that you seem to be enjoying it. Stay the course.

Looking to sell or trade on these cue …. MayBe

Kenny, I only see 4 cues.
Last one is this.

there are 2 POV to look at this

yes you can say Reyes is a WIP and they can do things they deem necessary to boost the image, they change the selection criteria and even format, but they also do that with the Mosconi Cup

way I see it, Reyes is a WIP, so they will profit in the long term by applying a consistent set of selection criteria, because when players believe in them, the Reyes Cup will be a prestigious event... the audience will have it no matter who are in

to be honest, they can announce AJ as last wildcard pick
I hope AJ doesn't miss a ball. It would make for a great story. Still, even if he does that, he will have taken the Team Asia spot of many who are more deserving.
