One of our local TD's holds "Bounty Trounaments". $20.00 entry fee, double elimination, every time you win you get $5.00 of that player's "Bounty". It's cool, you can get your twenty back, even though you may not pace in the money. He gets 25 - 30 players every time. Mike

I have a 2X4 Widowmaker case that holds my cues, but, they still get knocked over every once in a while. Because the shafts are the only part sticking out they get dinged...what are ya gonna do? Mike

If you look around and don't see this guy...it might be you! Mike

My playing cue was made by Chris Nitti. Mike

Thanks you guys, you have changed my mind, alittle, I did throw the "2" on the "7" last night. She lost, but, she always loses! And this "7" almost always wins! Killed two birds with one loss. Mike

This is a down time for here 2 or 3 years ago we had two divisions of 16 team "house leagues", and an 8 team division of "Bar/travel league" in 8-ball and three 16 team divisions in 9-ball. This is in two pretty good size pool rooms and 8 to 9 bars in town. Mike

JAM, This stuff works like a charm, if you start on new cloth, old chalked cloth will not clean with this product. I have used it after everytime I play since my table was new and I LOVE IT!! Mike

True, but, sometimes, as in the case of new or out-of-town teams, you do not know the players that well. We have about 32 teams in the 8-ball league and 24 teams in the 9-ball, it is not that hard to remember who is who in the zoo. I agree, I have my own personal opponents I like to play, as...

Play offs are alittle different, but, I have also been bitten in the a$$ throwing the big-uns first. We won the first two matches and had a commanding lead in the third, 4 to zip in a race to five, (8-Ball, by the way), the opponent came back and forced the fourth match and all I had left were...

It was -2 with an wind chill of -13 this morning, I wish I had a mustache!! Mike

Talisman Hard. Mike

O.K. - I Captain both APA 8-Ball and 9-Ball teams. For uninitiated at the beginning of every match the captains of the teams flip a coin to see who will "throw out" the first player. I almost always make the other Captain throw, unless there are unusual circumstances, someone has to play to...

I like Talisman Hard tips, but, I also play with a couple of cues that have Moori tips nd they hit good too. I chalk alot, so the hard tips last longer and hold their shape better. Mike
