I initiated a Wikipedia article on Reed Pierce. It needs to be updated. A while back, Reed Pierce and his brother, Ronnie, owned an upscale billiards sports bar and restaurant, bearing Reed Pierce's name in Byram, Mississippi. Inside the restaurant is an actual pool room named 9-Ball Lounge, and it had eight Diamond regulation-size pool tables.
Reed did win the US Open 9-Ball Championship in 1995, defeating Efren Reyes, 11-6, who won it the year before. Billy Incardona and Grady Mathes in the commentary booth. It nice to see him enjoying pool again.
Can you explain what a regulation pool table is? Bar box, several different size 8’ tables, 9’ table. I can’t tell you how many pool halls I’ve called over the years and they tell me “regulation”. Sorry but there’s no such thing as regulation table. Corner Pocket says they have Diamond regulation tables, whatever that means. I just wish people would just say 7, 8, or 9 foot tables. Sorry, it’s just a pet peeve of mine.
hello, i'm mostly looking for OB classic/OB classic+ or OB 1 shafts (preferably OB classic) with 12.7 or more diameter tips. if someone only sells the whole cue (shaft & butt) i'm also willing to buy it.
So Im bored and looking to fill my pool case. Need a jump/break. Any Omens or Maces out there. Preferrably around 190z with 1 or 2 shafts close to 13mm.
I have this Chinesium one (posted link). I used alcohol and wiped all of the balls clean, added a small dot to each ball and ran them through the cleaner. They look spot free. I’ll experiment with one ball to see what’s going on.
As far as the sprayer it seems to dry in the straw or sprayer head after I use it. I’ll have to pick up the one you recommended or clean the nozzle with hot water after use. Thank you for the help.
I’m tempted to buy a speed controller to slow down the ball cleaner. I think it spins too fast compared to a quality cleaner.
Waaaaaaay too much Aramith Ball Cleaner. You'll need to install new cleaning pads on your machine or clean the ones you've got. They are likely saturated with the cleaner and will apply to the balls whenever you run them in the machine.
The white dots you are experiencing are collision marks caused by residual cleaner on the balls after you run them in the machine. Like I said in the video, the balls should come out of the polisher shiny, but not slick. If they feel slick, there's residual polish on them.
I don’t understand Digital Pool. I enter Mississippi open and nothing comes up. If I just put in 9 ball all kinds of tournaments show up except what I’m looking for. They need a better search engine.
It doesn't matter how good the individual player is, there still would have been 850 FR players in every era. FR isn't based on how well you pocket balls or play the game, only how well you perform against your contemporaries.
