    New 1P Rules For The Derby City Classic

    I wouldn't be that TD under any circumstances or any amount of money because the players sloth would be made his problem. Time limit is one rule, it's clear, no debating it. The one that's behind can make a come back play and win or he can lose. Its not gambling, its tournament play.

    New 1P Rules For The Derby City Classic

    Agreed. That isn't bad for the Derby which is set up for it. When you start using pool rooms for tournaments, other things start being a problem, like taking up all of the 9ft tables all day on Saturday which is high earning potential time. So, tournament wise it's not for every room.

    3 Shafts Comparison

    Understandable squirt that is predictable, is a lot better than a small amounts of not so easy to understand squirt. So yes it is for me.

    New 1P Rules For The Derby City Classic

    Even with all of that, 1-pckt takes a long time to play. Room owners need to make money by having more players present at tournaments and spectators.

    New 1P Rules For The Derby City Classic

    I can't imagine a better way to limit races other than time. If you're behind in the score no more stalling shoot or lose. It's the same gambit during games. If you're way behind from not shooting you lose.

    Custom and High End Cues on the Decline?

    I sold the one I had. I used a solid piece of wood with a 3/8 x 10 pin in it and it hit great, so now I play with House Cue butt and my Southeast shafts. Feel is King for me. I saw a Cue Guy set up at an event yesterday. Pot leaves, zig zags of all kinds and weird colorful designs and at decent...

    Extra Deflection on Mosconi Cup Table??

    Especially before the latest LED lights and if they have the old lights, they cook the humidity right out of the air and the air circulates over the cloth, and all moisture leaves it as well= very slick conditions with new cloth.

    What kind/brand of Mechanics Level to level a Pool Table

    You got lucky on the floor and the mechanic doing it. Floor is at least 70% of the success. Wood expands and contracts with temp and humidity, but I understand. On the other side of that if a mechanic is a little off or he doesn't start the process the correct way, the Diamond Bowl forms and...

    One Pocket (Grady Rule)

    Thank you for qualifying this. The kitchen makes a lot more sense. Having all balls spot at once also makes more sense.
