    Rebuttal by Johann Chua re Waxgate

    She uses too much cleaning solution. With the Ballstar, she should be slightly dampening the sponge with the cleaning solution.

    Gold Crown question: Table Height Adjustment & Restoring Leg Feet

    Lighting: Parabolic Louvers vs. Egg Crate

    Mark Wilson on sidespin to pocket balls

    I took a lesson some years ago from Dennis Orcullo. I asked him what percentage of his shots he applies english to the cue ball. He looked at me like I was from another planet before answering, "All of them".
