Sorry to half to correct everyone again, but the ball pocket rattle takes place in the same outer half of the pocket facings on both the Diamonds and GC's, in the exact same outer half of the pocket facings! The same BAD shot on a Diamond WON'T go in on a GC either if the pockets have the exact same dimensions. The only difference is that when the balls come to a stop, the Diamond shelf is just a little bit deeper than the GC's are. GC's in their heyday were designed for the AMATEURS, which is why they had 5"-5 1/2" corner pockets and 6"-6 1/2" side pockets factory stock!!
Diamonds have set a new standard, don't like it, build your own line of pool tables, because they are here to stay, like it or not!!
