:yes: Is it wrong for me to be Green with Envy????

Just wondering what most folks use to make a decision between stripes and solids in 8 ball. I've gone from: easiest opening shot TO most open balls TO least "difficult" balls TO least balls without an open pocket. Now I'm hearing the most important thing is the best key ball to get on...

Oh man - that's discipline! Every time I get going on stroke drills that I KNOW will help my fundamentals and performance, I get really, really bored and start playing the ghost or something like that. Keep it up!

I think this is the proper reaction. I need to focus on my own execution regardless of what the other guy does.

We play lots of different guys in our 8 ball league so the lags are not memorable, but I'm finally picking up on a guy who seems to always wait for you to lag first before lagging himself. It's not exaggerative in that I think he lags before my ball hits the end rail, but it's now bugging the...

Ugh! Ok - I'm happy pool of some sort is on TV, but I don't have any understanding to the allure of trick shot pool. It does nothing for me. Am I alone?

Disregard this

Antinul, That space is even better than I thought with the other pictures! I'd never leave:D

Too much suspense. You have to post some in between pictures for us. That space is awesome!

Thanks Bob! I like it a lot. I think I'm going to apply nafe to playing the ghost and run out or lose the game or I can pick an arbitrary minimum of points per game. I can never talk buddies into playing games like this. They always want to play 8 or 9 ball and that's it.

I really need to learn safeties. After my opponent beat me he re-laid the balls on the table and suggested that I should have played a safety instead of taking a really tough offensive shot. It was 8 ball and I had 6 balls on the table versus his 3. Obviously I had a bunch of blocker balls...

This is ridiculous! I would never leave the house.

Get the 7 footer! I have a 7 footer in my basement. My predicament is a little bit different because I could have gotten an 8 footer down there, but I would have to switch to shortie cues on two tight spots and I don't have the tolerance for that. Having that table in my basement is one of...

Beginner level player here. I noticed last night that if I hit a shot with dead straight aim, the object ball will go slightly to the left. I played to that fault the rest of the night with confidence, cheating a bit to the right to see the ball go a little left as expected. My question is...

Around 12-15 guests / 6-8 players. I'm guessing a few will just not want to play.
