    Who builds the Becue, full pool cues, and are they popular?

    Funny thing is I will be in Louisville for the DCC in a week and a half for my first trip to that event ever. I was planning on using that cue to fill my pockets with other players cash. :p :geek:

    HELP ~ Table purchase & install - Ft. Collins, Colorado

    I found a used Diamond table on Marketplace two years ago. It was in a nice home in Ft Collins and was bought new from Diamond. Very little play, table and the perimeter LED light along with a great set of balls for $4000. This table was essentially new. It is in my Daughters home now. David...

    Well still no Becue for me yet. I have been Emailing Becue for the last couple weeks. Still shows that its in Luisville and I get the message that it has been held up in customs. I have tryed everything I can think of. I sent my first nastygram today and we will see what the response is soon.

    New Pet Peeve in Pool

    I do this, even when practicing by myself on my home table. Drives me crazy! I have learned to shape the money ball straight in and use a stop shot. It saves so much time.

    I don't remember these tournaments

    Yes, I just was poking fun of AI. I remember Roger winning an ESPN tourny probablly Ultimate 9 ball. Maybe in the late 90's? He shot really well, at the time I had never heard of him, RIP.

    I don't think so but your question got me wondering. I found this and post number two from Scott (RIP). https://forums.azbilliards.com/threads/gandy-info.200739/

    It's Been Three Months Now

    I was also. Until my Son bought me Taom Green. Table stays cleaner as does your hands, balls and cue shaft. Occasionally build up on the edge of your tip or a miscue will leave a spot on the table. Don't rub the spot with your fingers, like we all have done. Leave it until you have a chance...

    I don't remember these tournaments

    I was never crazy about this model of Gandy table. I had played on a few and were ok if set up right. At 27:32 a skinny Earl leaned against the table and the whole table moved, like the table supports were not tightened. According to AI Roger, "The Rocket" Travis won. ;)

    I will work on this. I will resurrect this thread if I have to, due to a very busy couple of weeks in front of me now.

    That's great news! Mine has been in Louisville Kentucky since the 24th of December. I get the message from UPS of "Your package arrived at Import without prior notification. UPS is working to resolve the issue. / Your delivery will be rescheduled." That message gets resent to me every other...

    I wonder if the Puerto Rican guy you played could have been Santos Sambajon? I know Santos is Pinoy but the size and ability sound similar. I do have a picture of Georga Boy but I am working off a new PC and have not had an easy time posting pictures like I could with my old unit.

    there really WAS an "ames billiards" in nyc

    Nice write up and great memory. About 20 years ago I was in a tourney in Denver. I met a gentelman that introduced himself as Georgia boy, he was maybe in his 70's and a black man. He was not playing in the event but after he challenged me to a match of straight pool for $200. I had been...

    11 Ball 1 Pkt 7'

    That’s good to hear. Three of my kids have 7 ftrs. They have all played one pocket on my 9 ftr and like the game. I will give it a go on the small table and see how it works.
