    Do I really NEED a $10k table?

    I don't think it matters if for home use only. If you play league or tournaments, best to practice on what you play league on. Get a 7 ft Valley and have fun with it.

    Best 7’ table other than Diamond!

    Just to make clear, I prefer REBCO 7ft tables to 7ft Diamonds. And the good part is they are 1/2 the price of a Diamond. That said if you play league or tournaments on Diamonds, better practice on one. I like 9 ft REBCO tables also. Bob makes a great table, IMO.

    Are LD shafts only really helpful on long shots w/ a lot of side spin?

    helpful on all shots, none of us hits center ball every time. more forgiving of the slight mistake.

    good point, I don't know. They look like an old time table and play amazingly well. John Schmidt did his 626 run on a 9ft REBCO in Easy Street Billiards, Monterey, California.

    REBCO from California. I actually prefer them to Diamonds. and about half the price.

    What’s the worst cue you’ve ever bought?

    Hate to say it, I had a Runde purpleheart sneaky that was very hard to make balls with, for me and anybody else that tried it. Great looking cue, but for playing not so much.

    Cues for home guests - house cues or your own?

    House cues. Accidents happen.

    Seybert’s shipping prices

    I just checked what shipping on a cube of chalk would be, USPS, to me, all in USA. $5.06. Something is wrong with $36 shipping.

    Cte finally explained?

    I've spent months and countless hours trying to get CTE from Stan's videos, took a couple lessons from a "certified CTE" teacher. Zip, Nada. I watch Blitzfaces's video and in 17 minutes I get it and am making balls with ease. Why torch the guy, he explained the previously unexplainable :-). Stan...
