Water line... You can see a water line in the middle pic.

Slightly off topic, but I think... I think mine is leaving marks on my Duramith cueball that my Diamond ball cleaner doesn't take off. The cueball was off the table a couple times onto the concrete floor but there's just too many marks on the cueball for that to be the sole cause.

Glen did my GC II. Glen did my GC II. I had a friend come over who plays just a hair under pro speed at most games and pro speed at least at one game. He played on my table awhile and said, "This is amazing...any table I've ever played on I always had to adjust either long or short when I...

I went from... I went from 860 to 760HR. In my experience, the 760HR is quite a bit faster, not just a little.

Simonis tourney blue. Went from green 860 to tb 760. Not even close. The blue is (and was designed to be) easiest on your eyes. The balls also stand out much more clearly on the tb Simonis.

I played on a table for years with cross set lights. 2 x 4', 4 sets recessed in the ceiling. The lighting was excellent. (just a player, not a table mechanic or pro player)

Most people looking to be staked... Most people looking to be staked don't have money. The only guaranteed way to make money in the match is to dump their stakehorse. Do the math. It goes on all the time, even more so the higher the bet.

50 - 50 50 - 50 is only fair if you run a red number. Who's going to get action for anything over pennies where they're player is more than a 2 -1 favorite? And that isn't even factoring in "business", which seems to be standard practice among many players today.

Had mine set... Had mine set 47" off the table bed and it was excellent. Dropped it 5" to see if it would improve but it made it much worse. Set it 78" off the floor which is now 48" off the bed and it's back to excellent.

That's what I'm talking about. That's what I'm talking about. We had posts where everybody compared how many rails you could get, straight up and down. I'd buy a standardized ramp just for a conversation piece and to check out friends tables and maybe the occasional table in a room. Or, at...

Might be interesting to... Might be interesting to standardize this. Find some form of universal wedge shaped devises (old fashioned door stops come to mind) or set a standard, maybe 30" long pieces of flat wood stock, .750 high at the back with a straight taper to maybe .5 at the front and...

Gatz posted... Gatz posted facts in response to questions. People with mega multi million dollar houses will always have nuthuggers. What's the problem?

I've known Robb.. I've known Robb around 20 years now, from the east coast action days when he was a kid. Add me and all the people I know to the list of those who speak well of him. Last ran into him at Hopkins Billiard Expo in Pa. Always liked him, always will. If a champion doesn't have...
