Can you still run packages? Or too old now?:)

If i play this table for a month or so I could throw more than a couple out there, but I haven't played much in over 50 years but I can still hang a little I believe. I'll practice 14 and 1 quite a bit and work on breaking a hundred. I should be able to do that reasonably quick. But we'll see, if i break a 100 I'll post it!

Cue Prices today, in this economy.

I doubt that.
Just because prices are high doesn't mean that cues are moving.
If you have been around 15-20 years ago in the for sale section, you would know that the market is barely breathing.
What's going on today is that dealers grabs everything fast and many cue maker don't even work directly with customers, only through dealers. These guys hold cues and it may look like the market is thriving, my bet is that a lot of the cues are stashed a way for future sale at even higher prices.
Cue collecting is an old men thing, the young don't take too much interest in this, just give them an SVB cuetec or a Predator and they are good and happy.

So if cues are not selling would that not drive the prices down? That’s kind of how prices work.

WNT Florida Open: New Cloth Color?

Respectfully disagree. Tournament blue was chosen after a scientific study of colors and contrast. Not an accident that the US Open Tennis tournament surface is practically the same color.

Tennis doesn't use blue colored balls. For me, both the 2 and sometimes the 10 can lose their edges a bit on the tournament blue cloth. Really, any of the darker colors can be problematic at times, especially under substandard bar lighting. Lighter cloth colors provide much better contrast across all used pool ball colors, and most lighting situations.

rafael martinez could probably do some damage in his prime?

In 1986 I gave Him 7 on 30 for $300 a game at the Chicago Billiard Cafe!

He lost 2 games!

BTW, about Rafael, 'Big' Stroke' most likely helped him playing 9 ball!

Like most Mexican 3C players from the past, heavy hitters, the Big stroke got him in more trouble than out of it!

He didn't have 'Technique/Strategy/Finesse' to go to the next level!

Marco Marquez and he would be an even game!
