The same BCA that has been trashed by Harriman so many times is now a different organization? Wow.

Is that so? I don't know either of the two, DH or JS, in person. But I have seen very much of Harriman's insults here, foul language, attacks, character assassinations on top of being very boring after 2.5 years. Not only in this thread. I have rarely or actually never seen someone beating a...

Well, that first post was 2.5 years ago. He had to repeat and clarify it over 246 pages ... else we would have fallen off the flat earth stumbling around trying to figure it out ...

Well, the average hair is about 0.08mm in diameter. Gotta shave a little off :)

Check this: https://wpapool.com/equipment-specifications/#Balls-and-Ball-Rack Go to 16. According to that site the tolerance is 0.005" or 0.125 mm. But what you are talking about is a lot less than that tolerance - it is 0.05mm. I don't see any tool making pool balls to that spec. I doubt that...

Why are you shouting after 2.5 years?

Oh yeah, those print-on-demand thingies are usually stuff ripped from legitimate sources. The "authors" try to make money the easy way - I have experienced similar books in golf ball collecting and other hobbies of mine. Really just rip-off stuff, mostly.

I doubt I'll get that deal with a German address. Don't have APO so postage is gonna be twice as much as the balls themselves ...

I like K2's fault and your balls ... don't take me too literally :-)

Yes. But adding to that, we all live in different universes. I have never heard anybody talk about, for example, cricket, much less watch it. Living in Germany since 1976. My US and Brazilian friends never did, either. I practically never watch soccer, either. But I know that a significant...

@vjmehra : I might be totally wrong and you may well be right, according to this website: https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/what-are-the-most-popular-sports-in-the-world.html Cricket 2.5 billion and Hockey 2 billion fans? Now, the numbers for Hockey are dubious because they include Ice...

Well, availability on tv, played in schools, watched a lot by people who can't play it and so on ... ? In general I'd just say: people taking an interest in the sport, percentage-wise of the overall population ... All of those were British colonies - actually one large colony The Afghans...

☒ Does this work? ☐ No it does not ☑ Apparently it does

I agree with you on soccer being the most popular sport world-wide. Cricket and field hockey are certainly not that popular - outside of former British colonies they are almost unknown. I would rate basketball, Formula 1 and even golf way above those.

Yep. Great shots are not uncommon in pool, though. Excellent safety duels are pretty rare. Much more common in snooker.

Wow, that is one of the greatest safety duels I have seen in pool so far. Normally, you only see Ronnie O'Sullivan doing stuff like that in Snooker. Thanks for sharing.

Bought it, looking forward to read it.

Man, you're a sorry and sad person lacking any manners or style. I don't care if you can play some pool or not - a person without a tiny bit of decency is someone I can't respect at all. Welder84 tried to talk like a man but he gets to hear your trailer park trash again, like everybody who does...

It's funny nowadays. All media which have a reputation to lose are Fake News. The complete and only truth is found on Facebook, Twitter and extreme right-wing conspiracy sites. Or in forums where a few people cook up the real truth. Did someone switch the poles? Does electricity flow the other...

So what. Iron core in the balls, strong electromagnets and every ball will curve in. Or grooves that make the balls roll in the pockets? (Only problem would be you wouldn't get to 500 because whitey would roll in as well :) What would that prove? That you can't play proper pool, probably ...
