    OCD things you do when you play pool

    I'm insanely OCD on the table. I literally have to remove EVERYTHING from my pockets. If I have anything in my pockets I can't shoot straight for my life. Even I know where I'm shooting my next shot, I walk the longer way around the table to set it up. If I'm using the bridge, I flip it from...

    Poison VX 2.1 Play/Break/Jump?

    One of my teammates just got one of these - it was a good cue as far as I can tell based on 9-10 racks

    nordic pool cue

    One of my good shooting buddies played with a nordic butt/ob-2 shaft combination for a few years, he loved playing with it, so I'd assume they're a halfway decent production cue. Not sure about history though, I tried googling them a few months ago and couldn't find much. But for $50, no big...

    Free pool lessons at my website !

    I'm checking it out as we speak. Not to get uber-personal, but why'd you retire from 1994-2004/forfeit in 72?

    So is there footage of the famous 1990's Challenge of Champions dumping scandal?

    I've read the thread, and I'm confused - is it 1988 or 91? This is a little before my time (b. 1991), but regardless. Is this it: http://www.1vshop.com/Accu-Stats/store.cgi?CMD=011&PROD=1343945948&PNAME=Buddy+Hall+vs.+Mike+Lebron+(Finals)*+(DVD)?????

    I am not a table mechanic!!!! LOL

    Congrats! and the cloth looks good from all I can tell, I think you've got an alternative career choice in front of you! lol maybe this is a terrible question (or a geographic thing?) but what is a "furniture" table, why are they called that, and where does that term come from?

    Do you stay the whole league night if you're done playing ??

    I usually feel like a jerk for leaving before my team is done playing but it's tough, I'm an undergraduate in college and our match usually isn't over before 10:30pm, but I always have work the next day from 10-12, class from 12-3, and work again from 4-10, so I have no time to get any homework...

    what do you do when in a slump ?

    I actually do the exact opposite of preparation. I play almost every day (I work at a poolhall), so when I get into a slump I usually take a few days off. I think you need to rest your mind once in a while and come back to the table with fresh eyes sometimes.
