Tournaments or Gambling...Which makes you a stronger player?

playing better players getting a spot and winning does make you a better player.

playing them even just gets you broke or a lighter weight wallet.
That's funny, where I'm from the better players are pretty outspoken about the fact that handicap tournaments don't make you better.

I halfway agree with them. If you're not entering tournaments where you're an underdog to cash and won't gamble unless you've got the nuts - that's fine and a perfectly sound financial decision...just don't expect to get better at the game.

Jflowers W Anniversary Bundle

I just received the bundle. I think the quality is outstanding. I hit some balls for about 15 minutes with the CF and the wood shaft. They both felt great. The balance is good. I think it might be an 18oz out of the factory. It does come with weight bolt so I can adjust. So far, I am very impress. I am playing tonight so we will give it a go.

Automatic Scoring of 8 ball, 9 ball, 10 ball, and Straight Pool

Excited about this one. Here, I'm demoing 8 ball and 9 ball.

It can identify all of the balls on the table (with the ability to make manual corrections), along with auto scoring over an entire multi-game match with stats collection.

Do the top one pocket players almost never shoot that spin transfer shot when there are two balls frozen on the spot?

I shoot this shot often, yes I’ve sold out but I also make or hang one also. I was better at it years ago when I had a more reliable stroke.
I enjoy seeing it executed perfectly. I remember you were quite good at it Tom! I think I first saw the shot at Plush Pocket now that I think of it. I wish that I had developed the passion for one pocket back then that I have now.

Recommendations for 16-ball Ball Cleaner

I bought the cheap one this week. I am surprised how sturdy it is, and so far, so good.

It will do a fine job for you! If it craps out you can have another one at your door in a day or two. You could that several more times before you hit the cost of the higher priced models. But, I wouldn't be surprised if you have zero issues at all with the one you bought.
