Isn’t it really personal preference? This isn’t black and white. Personally, I enjoy playing on both tables. Again, that’s personal preference. And it’s not because I need to “ feel like a champion”. To each their own.
You almost seem offended that someone would enjoy something you don’t enjoy like a “kiddie table”. Do you also criticize and attack people who have other hobbies that you may not enjoy? Maybe golf or fishing or hunting or pickle ball or whatever.
Is pickle ball stupid since it’s not traditional tennis? Straight pool vs other games is similar. Each have things that make them great.
Something told me I was out of date when on 3 seperate occasions at the local hall, a diff player under 30 asked me what game I was playing!!
They'd never seen a rack w just 14 balls in it b4!!
The break shot idea just baffled one of them.
Man, I am way time behind with my high run of six. I did move away before I could push it higher but I had been stuck at six for over a month. Before that my high run was four. I leaped right past five! Breaking out the math, six is fifty percent more than four so at that rate I was moving fast!

Straight pool requires good and consistent climate control.
I estimate 30% humidity or less.

This is too funny, and once again demonstrates that very little beats the truth for most purposes -- especially a good laugh.
We laughed about that for a long time. too damn funny.
Matlock and Donny Foulkes used to talk about Andy O. Another big rock'r was Country Calvin Harcrow. That cat would get 'medicated' and play for days. Almost forgot Shuput and his road partner Mike Hyland. Both those cats could FLAT gin it with the big ball.

Calvin's brother David still posts on here now and then. Still hits balls pretty fair last I knew too.

Someone, I never hear about on here.. "porky" was what he was known by in Michigan,
but his name was Norm Wines I believe... came by the 'Sands' in GR and broke the place.
I don't think he ever missed... the game was the other player could win with Any ball
pocketed and porky was playing 9 ball.
I never saw anyone play that spot before or after!

I knew him from Detroit…lotta energy, fierce as hell….make a score….play the poker ….couldn‘t get out with any money.
Tangent here but I heard anecdotes of Hawaiian Brian giving guys the win if they could <move> the 9 ball.
