    Gold Crown I ... to buy or not to buy

    Looks like a nice table. How much were they asking, just curious. I ended up finding a 9' Diamond :)

    Great interview with Mark Gregory of Perfect Pocketz

    Perhaps you are right... You might be right, I just had to comment. I am not in the market any longer, but appreciate your input.

    Great interview with Mark Gregory of Perfect Pocketz

    Bad business... I'm five minutes into the video and had to comment. He said something like, money comes in to pay to get the last job out!! That is a terrible way to run a business. I am a contractor and the ones in my trade that work this way end up in bad places, never hit deadlines, and are...

    The new Aramith tournament balls

    Confusing... I found the color change to be confusing. Making the 5 purple was goofy but it just flat out did not improve the ability to tell the balls apart. The 2 and 5 were very similar. the 3 three stood out but not drastically, you have to look hard. I do like the 9, but I do not like the...

    From TX to MN...what did I do?

    Story Recap To close the doors on this story I figure I should update you guys. In the end I did not go down to TX and get the table. It was just too complicated or too expensive to make it work depending on which route I went. It worked out for the best as it turns out the man selling the...

    Table Identification

    generic table I agree, this appears to be one of those generic tables. On the market they are worth diddly doo to a player. If you are looking to buy it, don't. If you are looking to sell it I wish you the best luck! :smile:

    Got my new table today.

    Sweet table! Looks great in your room. 6 month lead time on a table is insane. They really should not be that far behind IMO. If I spent that kind of money on a table I would freak out waiting that long!! :eek:

    I got reminded yesterday why i quit playing tournaments

    long waits... I just played in a tourny last friday night and my first match started late then I sat for 3.5 hours waiting for my next match. These are race to 3's on bar box. I guess the guy in my bracket is notorious for being slow. His 1st match took 1.75 hours! his second match took 1.5...

    From TX to MN...what did I do?

    I can fly one-way for $65. The one way rental back is $400+gas. That's not bad plus the adventure of it all. I am thinking more and more about how taking my son with (or whole family) and turn it into a mini road trip adventure :) Buckets. Which I like :) I have been all over all the sites...

    From TX to MN...what did I do?

    That is an option, it's just the time thing that is tricky. Ohh that and the wife saying " yeah go ahead and go to TX, no problem!" I did want a 9, but I am not opposed to a pro 8. Most the local tourneys are 7' diamond events. This way I kind of meet in the middle. I know I would be happy...
