He has been selling pool and billiard books for a long time. I guess he is getting out of the business.

Only $100 per book, what a steal

The most valuable book I see there is Eddie Robin's book on position play. It would help to have a complete list of title/author/year/features.

Collections are a little strange for valuation. If you look at the average price for each book if you bought them singly, and add those up, you're going to be under the total asking price. Are you willing to pay for the time it took for the seller to assemble the books? That's how long it would take you to get a similar collection together. The contrary way to look at is that the buyer should be getting a quantity discount.

Ok thought that was the 9 but the 6 moved as a function of the kiss. FxF shows rail then the two balls yellow first. Explains why he was allowed to shoot again.

Good evening all I’m curious as to what kind of custom Cues Steve Mizerak played with. There’s an Accu stats match on YouTube titled The pine needles senior 9ball tour from 1998. Steve is playing with a four point cue that has a linen wrap and no inlays with what appears to be a delrin butt cap or possibly the good stuff. I’m just curious I’m a cue fan. I’ve also seen matches with him playing with a cue with inlays and a steel joint on the accu stats matches.

Used to see him regular from the late 80s till his death. All he was using was Black cues.
I had to come back and edit this cuz I totally forgot about Dennis Searing. Yeah he did play with the a Searing and cue for a while.

Fans and players alike drink while the competition is in progress

Players aren't allowed to drink (or smoke) on stage nowadays. Not like back in the day - that was when darts really was a sport!

This past PDC world championship was live on Peacock in the USA (and as mentioned in the original post - some games were shown delayed on NBC).

Still way more accessible coverage than any recent pool tournaments - Mosconi included.

PDC tournaments are not open. You need to have earned a PDC card to enter. To get one is a grind. Hence the decent money for even losing early on - and about $1,400,000 (million UK pounds) for winning it. Not all pay this much - this one is the biggie.

Luckily for pool in the USA - darts in a bar normally means those pay-to-play soft tip dart 'machines' that kinda discourage the casual from playing. Too confusing (and costly) if you just wanna play 501 like you've been watching on TV.

Thank you…
