I hate the fact you can't hardly find a snooker table 6x12. They were everywhere when I was a kid, in almost every hall. Of course that was a LONG time ago.

I would agree 👍🏻

Draw a line from the nine through the one. You aim where the line intersects the BACK of the one ball. Takes a little practice to get comfortable aiming at the back of the ball Works every time.

Rotation games now days are just plain boring, and I seldom play nor watch them. IMO the rules that were made to speed up the game ruined the game in large part.

You go to a pool hall for many reasons. What it's called, or who's name it's associated with, is usually a non issue. Other than die hard pool players, most casual players know very little about the pros much less their names. If the staff is polite, the place is clean and organized, rates are...

Thousands of hours of practice. Most of the better snooker players started very young.

Not sure about the legalities of disclosing names. They could be setting themselves up for a lawsuit in my view by disclosing personal medical information. People know the risks, if they determine for themselves they are willing to take the risk, then it's on them. It's not the APA, BCA or any...

Your not going to start this off by giving us you age or age bracket? Odd.

The smart players like Efren, Mika, Shane, and some others have invested their money wisely and make money on things other than pool. I know Efren and Shane own property and rental properties. Not sure about Mika. I'm sure there re more than these 3, but if you want to travel around the world...

I've watched a lot on youtube, and it's obviously an extremely difficult game. Like snooker, I like watching really good players that make it look easy, when it's anything but easy!

Pretty darn good list if you ask me. I would think any of these would be excellent!!

On more difficult shots I will walk around and look at the tangent line thru the object ball into the pocket, but it's a quick look, not starting it down for minutes. I don't think it's rude, but I'm sure it slows up the game. Personally I don't like slow play so depending on how long it's...

Know a guy that bought a bar box last month. Paid 600 for it, and it's in really good shape.

There may be a thread already out on this, but wanted to get it out as soon as I found out. Just got a text from a teammate that is already there and the nationals have been cancelled. Don't get on the plane unless you just want to go to Vegas and not play pool at the Rio.

Welcome to the forum, glad to have you!!! I'm an old fart as well. Too bad with age, our skill levels seem to diminish. The eyes, and the eye/hand coordination just isn't what it used to be, but I still enjoy hitting some balls.
