Have you ever known any players who played really good with the heavy (mud) cue ball, that you see on so many Valley coin op tables?

You lost me on the equator!!
I'm in the southern hemisphere now!! Wtf??😉
Check your toilet flushing. And check back. I think it spins one way in one hemisphere and the other way in the other. Unless this is false.

ahmma go with Jay Helfert just to be safe. The heaviness gets the OB going further at lower speeds than and equal weight ball.

Thorpe blasts ‘one of the dumbest rules’ after becoming ineligible for USA Mosconi Cup team

the average salary in the u.s. is about 70,000 a year. so if making less as a pool pro you are a failure.
but may be happy having that lifestyle for a lower standard of living. and traveling on the road and spending much of it.
also no retirement plan goes with it. so your old age is not going to be much fun.
basically there is no future in being a tournament pro pool player. its too bad there is no real money in the sport.

and efren who is the most successful and said to have made 2 million seems like a lot. but over his 40 plus years playing, that averages out less than 50,000 a year. and takeout expenses, but still good money for where he lives but hardly a big financial success.

Pool is Thriving in Texas!

Frisco and Matchroom are in love. There seems to be little doubt the US Open Pool Championship will return to Texas.
What's your source here?

In 2025, the new WNT Florida Open took place. It was a hit and fans like me were delighted when Emily Frazer announced before the final that they would return in 2026. That meant that the contract was already in place for WNT's return to the same venue.

In contrast, in 2026, the US Open 9ball went to Frisco, TX for the first time. Just before the final, Emily Frazer announced that she would love to be back in Frisco next year for another US Open 9ball. What that means is that, despite the stated WNT desire to return, there is no contract in place at this point to return to Frisco, TX.
