    Sardo M-5000 Tight Rack Instruction Manual

    I have a Sardo rack and love it. It produces an absolutely tight rack immediately every time. No instructions but simply place the ball in it and press down on the center. I tried pressing on the wings too hard and cracked one. The reason they stopped using it was it was too perfect and making...

    2024 BetOnline Mosconi Cup | Europe Triumphs To Secure Fifth Consecutive Title

    Is it just me or drunks screaming their lungs out while someone is shooting kind of demeans the event. I watched many MCs and know the Euro crowds are rowdy but it kind of crossed the line this year for me. How about you?

    Mosconi Cup 2024, Nov. 30-Dec. 3, Orlando

    Filler has every right to join the LIV tour of billiards (WPA) and will be missed for about 18 months and forgotten about like all the LIV golfers. A Team USA win will be a great stepping stone to the future of on line gambling and pool.

    Best table...

    I may be old school, but for the money, a used Gold Crown professionally restored is a rock solid, tournament quality table. If you are a recent returning player, ask for 4 1/2” pockets. If Spend the money you save on a high tech led lighting system. Diamonds are great but ugly and not enough...

    Unusual/weird/unique billiard tools and implements

    When I was young a friend had a spring loaded alum cue stick. You would cock it and their was a button to release it. It was worthless for playing but it was total fireworks to break with.

    MISCUES … Should the Rules be Changed to Make Them FOULS?

    No. The ugliest scenes in a pool hall is when heated arguments occur over technicalities in a heated match. Not 1 in 100 recreational players would know of this proposed rule or agree with it guaranteeing arguments. Pool would become uglier and that is the last thing our sport needs.
