What? I've played bar rules and have never heard of that one.

"Another quirk I come across sometimes is "one spot", where if your opponent scratches you can only place the cue ball on the head spot."
Do you mean in the "kitchen"? That's a common bar room rule where I'm from. It's different if they're playing BCA or APA rules. Behind the first two diamonds, aiming past the diamonds, not behind.

This was recommended to me by Ernesto Dominguez while he was here at our room a few weeks ago to recover all our tables, which hadn’t been recovered by him in 3 years. On a few of our most badly stained 860HR Simonis clothed tables before he recovered them, we experimented with the soap with amazing results, as it removed all the stains as well as bringing the tournament blue original color back to the cloth. Having owned and operated our poolroom for the last 30+ years, I wished I had learned this years ago - absolutely amazing!

You must use a very firm brush and really soap down the entire table including the cushion tops with the soap and water - really scrubbing in the soap and water with the firm brush especially on the stained areas, then completely rinsing out the soap off the cloth with a wet cloth / towel. Then set a fan on the end of the table to help dry the cloth. I took some before and after photos on my phone which I’d be glad to text to anyone who’d like them, just PM me.

Well, that's the trouble with all those damn scientists! They always want crazy things like "evidence," and "repeatable results."
