    What to do?

    I would say I am a strong B player. 25 years ago I would have said A player, but time away from the game and aging eyes has not helped. The poolrooms I go to only have 8' tables, and yes I can beat the ghost on those. I live in North Texas.

    What to do?

    I live at least an hour from any decent poolrooms. My crappy work schedule only really allows me to play on Saturday or Sundays. Which means no practice time during the week unless I want to play on a bar table, which frankly represents no challenge to me. I have broke and run 8 racks in 9 ball...

    Diamonds are Popular Tables, What Table is Most Popular Right Now?

    That is great news CJ! If your new room is anything like the rooms you have owned in the past, it will be First Class no matter what tables you decide to use! I hope it is on the northwest side of Dallas County, will be close for me, but I will be there regardless! As to tables, my heart has...

    CJ Wiley & Mary Avina Host Complimentary Pool Clinic Sat. at Wittens in DFW Texas

    Looks like a nice place. Is the bar as close to the table as it appears in the pics, or is that just an optical illusion? Looks like it might be tight if you have the cueball along the rail. Looking forward to your next Seminar CJ and Mary! :thumbup:

    Bar Table Cue ball on a 9 footer?

    I had a weird dream last night that I bought a barbox cue ball and used it to practice on a full size table, got used to moving that heavy magnetized thing around, then went to a bar table and cleaned up. Am I on to something here? :confused:

    Cues and cases.

    Simple. Chuck Norris protects mine. Which means the case that protects the case is too scared to stick around!

    Best hitting cue you ever played with.

    I was lucky enough to own a Gus Szamboti from 1985-2000. Bought it pre owned from a guy for $800 back then. Sold it in 2000 for $3000 when I needed the cash. :( That was by far the sweetest cue I ever hit a ball with, I swear it had a mind of it's own and knew just what to do. I wish somebody...

    This is why I don't like to play for money!!! ...

    When I was young and played all the time, it was fun to gamble. But I would never bet more than I could afford to lose, whether it be 1 set or 20 sets of play. But if it was close to quitting time I would always make sure my opponent knew that and was in agreement before we played. Also, if it...

    Adjusting to a new shaft

    I am in the same situation, except mine comes after a 25 year layoff. I was considering buying a new cue to get re inspired, but after some research I bought an OB LD shaft, 11.75mm tip, for my old Huebler. Going from a 13mm tip to 11.75 took a few hits to adapt to, but I am really liking the...
