    Tom Simpson 3 day billiard intensive

    I think it really depends on what you are looking for. I took the intensive a number of years ago (4 or 5 I guess), and I really don't know if the program has changed since then. Tom's information on fundamentals is good, but if your are an advanced player, then rebuilding your stroke may not be...

    where to play in NY city

    If you happen to be on the upper east side, you can check out Eastside Billiards at 86th St. between 3rd Ave. and Lexington. It's not really a player's room, but it's nice and the crowd is friendly.
