I have been watch the live stream for several months from Star Billiards Center, in the Republic of the Philippines.
The place looks neat, clean well kept, and after reading this description below, I wonder why there is nothing like this in the USA. Plus people seem to be playing, as the stream are always going 24 x 7 x 365.:wink:
No I have ever been to the Philippines, and most of what I have seen of the place has been on No reservations, and Bizarre Foods two of my favorite TV shows. Wonder if they play One Pocket?
"Star Billiards Center is pool player’s paradise"
MANILA, PHILIPPINES—Billiards enthusiasts are having a grand time at the bigger and better Star Billiards Center.
“This is a pool player’s paradise,” said veteran sports anchor Ted Lerner, who accompanied world 8-ball champion Ralf Souquet of Germany on Friday in the state-of-the-art venue of the qualifying sessions for the World Ten Ball Championship (WTBC).
Souquet is one of the fancied players in the WTBC slated on Nov. 25 to 30 at the World Trade Center in Manila.
“Star Billiards Center is the only place dedicated to billiards where everything is free,” said Lerner.
Almost everything. Of course, the imported cue sticks on display there are for sale.
Here are some of Star Billiards Center’s freebies: internet use, overseas calls to the United States and Canada, mobile phone charging (any brand), soft drinks and biscuits.
The players can play at any of 40 world-class pool tables for free. There’s also a giant plasma television to keep spectators from getting bored.
Its owner and Billiards and Snooker Congress of the Philippines president Sebastian “Baste” Chua also added a portion to the left side of the lavish pool hall where fans can get a bird’s eye-view of actions on 16 Brunswick tables.
The down-to-earth billiards patron shelled out nearly P10-million to complete the addition.
Selected actions on that side of the pool hall can be seen online through www.clubcapo.tv, a professional provider of high-quality video streaming of pool and other events.
