    2026 World Snooker Championship: April 18 - May 04

    If John Higgins and Mark Allen both win then we will witness history. If will be the first time ever that broadcasters pay people to watch the final. Normally it's the other way round.

    2026 World Snooker Championship: April 18 - May 04

    Judd Trump to win it. He's had a great season and this will put the shine on it. Plus, please anyone but Mark Selby or John Higgins. Hopefully they both get knocked out 1st round. I want to enjoy watching the tournament.

    Fraud beware

    Get their phone number. Call them. If they are genuine they won't mind. If they've claimed to be from xxx town. Look that town up. Tell them you've been there. Make something up like 'it was great that it was only a 2 hour drive from Chicago'. If they are 20 hours from Chicago then they'll...

    Ronnie doing Ronnie Things - Highest Break Ever

    As amazing as a 153 is - then guaranteed he's a bit gutted that it wasn't a 155. It was on. Surely he'll be playing in the World Championship year. Looking for the 8th.

    Why do some Chinese players shoot insanely fast?

    Agreed. They aren't playing crazily fast. It's just that some players take way longer than actually needed. Was great that Zhao Xintong won the world snooker championship playing a very fluent, no mucking about game. If he'd have been a grinder you'd now have x million Chinese players trying to...

    Seyberts exorbitant shipping charges?

    Yep - you get to about $70 worth of stuff so that 'laser aiming device - shoot like a pro - guaranteed or your money back' thing at $32 suddenly becomes very tempting...

    Jim Rempe's brainwash position/pattern drill

    Just tried this one with 3 balls (got it 2nd attempt - quickly learned that angles are BAD for this one) then 4 balls (got it 1st time). Now onto 5 balls... will try to get to 15. I like it because it's simple to set up - always slightly different - and quite challenging. You definitely have to...

    Ronnie O'Sullivan does a jump shot - in a snooker match.

    The ref called it a foul - like Ronnie knew she would. Frame was long since won. He just did it for the fun of it. Great stuff.

    So many tips to choose from.

    For me it's the best $20 pool expense going. I've done them myself manually - but it just ain't the same as having a pro do it with a lathe/tools/glue that he's been using for years. It only takes him a couple of minutes because he knows exactly what he is doing. Just like you can change the...

    SJM at the 2026 Derby City Classic

    I watched that as well. First time I'd seen that game. Ball-in-hand if you miss a ball makes it a very aggressive game. Great to SVB close-up in a room that wasn't that packed. Plenty of empty seats. Since getting back home I've been trying to imitate the way they were both breaking. They...

    Drill System

    Yep - def sounds like FARGO game (nothing to do with the rating system). Rules link: https://drdavepoolinfo.com/resource_files/fargo_sheet.pdf
