Did the same thing with my dear old dad. He was 93 and went to the ER. They kept him for five days. Valve issues. Finally sent him home with meds. Three weeks later he died in a house fire at age 94. Not sure how the fire started but we assume it was heart related. Smoke inhalation was...

Mark used to commentate on Accu-Stats at times back in the 90s during the Sands Regency Tournament in Reno and the U.S. Open. He was always very good whoever he was announcing with. Grady, Billy, etc. r/DCP

Hates the Gold Crown IV? No, not really. Once I get the Diamond Professional I will know if I hate the GCIV. If my troubles persist on the Diamond then I will have to apologize to the GCIV. If my play becomes better then I expect Brunswick to compensate me. I wonder how long it would...

96 consecutive racks of 6B? Hard to believe. Then again, some players are really, really good. I'm not one of them though. r/DCP

Nimrod was a brilliant WWII spy. Saw that on Hogan's Heroes the other day.

4-6 months. But I thought they gave preferential treatment to members of AZBilliards that are in solid standing.

It's been six weeks since I ordered the Diamond Professional table. I wonder if they have any kind of update for me? Maybe I should just drive down and talk with them? Thanksgiving is next week and then Christmas is right behind it. r/DCP

Roger that. Purchased from Orner Billiards in Indianapolis just before Christmas of 2002. Was delivered/setup in early January 2003. The Orner Billiards guys are the only ones that have ever worked on it. By worked on it I mean new cloth and making the pockets smaller. It had the 5" pockets...

Highly unlikely I could get $5,000 for my GCIV here in southern Indiana. I'd be lucky to get $2,500.

I don't know. I just know it plays really tough and stingy. Balls typically will go in on the break but it seems like rarely does it give up a decent runnable spread. I suppose it might just be me. When I get the new Diamond Professional if the same thing happens I will then have a pretty...

You would change your mind if you played on my Gold Crown IV.

Dr. Dave, That controlled draw drill at the 13:00 mark is something that players need to master. It's not that easy to draw back just a few inches. I've had it occur many times and if I can cheat the pocket and draw back off the rail and then bump into position I will do so. But sometimes you...

Just curious here - why is it called Bigfoot? Is it because it's played on a 10-foot table? And are they playing 9B or 10B?

What kind of table are they playing on? And can somebody go and measure the pockets, both corner and side? And please don't say they look 4.5" to me. Somebody go and measure them. Using two balls would be fine.

Are you saying side pockets are being reduced to 4" and 4.5"??? Or are you saying the that's the corner pockets?
