    Record Super Bowl bet....!

    He’s a local biz man here in Houston and has been successful since I was a young kid. He bets Tons of money every year and promotes it. You buy $3,000 or more at his store and Cinci wins you get your money back or can choose a store credit. He offsets his losses and has fun with it.

    MLK.... great American even better person.

    Great efforts and public focus. As for a great person, I’ll reserve that for peoples actions vs words. Speak to your African American friends and you may get a mixed review of they knew some of his marriage details and other allegations. I wholey respect his common teachings and apes he’s but he...

    Need help pool community.This is know it all on az.

    This was my thought as well and moderators should probably see this and approve or deny. Fundraising should always be approved on forums by moderators first IMO

    This spot shot bullshit has got to stop

    This sounds good at face value but no, it still is t ok and your premise doesn’t hold up. Simply add a 3rd race and it’s all solved. Nobody’s bashing the efforts of Predator and others to create an awesome tournament for the benefit of the sport and all of us that enjoy it but a shoot out after...

    How do you go about suing a cue builder? Just want to get my cue back.

    I’d try the small claims thing. If he works out of his house and doesn’t answer the door that seems to be a lot of trouble and wasted hope.

    Am I the only one with this problem?

    It’s probably a mental game. In golf when you think about “avoiding the water”, I hit the water. When I think about hitting a specific part of the fairway and ignore the water, I (usually hit the water but you get the concept!)

    Pool Knowledge: What's the last thing you learned?

    Most recently I’ve learned I can run the first nine ball rack more times than not and never run another the rest of the day…. Also, the Simonis x1 table cloth cleaner is a game changer for my table. It almost looks new each time I use it and I’ve given up on the vacuum. So thankful. I don’t...

    Tell us about your "cue journey"

    Bought my first custom McDermott in college and had it bored out to a 15oz. All I knew how to play were light cues at the time. Still have it now 30 yrs later. Played for about 10 yrs. just started playing again a year ago and got into a nicer Lucasi custom with a cf shaft and very happy with...

    Jim Murnak is making a new kind of cue case

    Very nice. As a knifemaker and leather worker I can recognize fine craftsmanship and this is a gem. Congrats on your craftsmanship sir. Certainly worthy of capturing photos with some brighter lighting. There are some amazing and inexpensive led lights on Amazon that are great for photography if...

    $10,000 club

    Lots of tourneys pay out that much when there’s that size of an entry fee. All things are relative and it just depends on how much you want to risk to reap a relative reward. Time is what tells the story based on the overall winnings/tourney at that level.

    9 ball break to make 1 ball

    I break from the side to make the wing and leave the cue and 1 near each other if it doesn’t drop. Figures for a better shot on the first up after break as I see it. I’ll change it up depending on where the 2 is in the rack and try to go from there.
