It was a genuine question that nobody in my circles could answer. Appreciated very much that some people took the time to delve into it and come up with sensible answers. But it's a toxic place. That's a really good starting point, happened to me a few times and easily went 50 feet on the...

The nineball. logo suggests it's them though

Brand new Simonis 860, no rails and whoever you think has the best/most powerful break... how long does the cue ball travel? I've asked this a few people around the pool halls and been given some wild answers... from 40 feet to 40 miles. What's your guess?

There's a Major Nineball Event in Matchroom's 2023 schedule named "English Open Pool Championship". Does anyone have any info whether this is happening or not? Didn't notice this event being mentioned anywhere during the recent World Pool Championship broadcast. Seems a little weird to put on a...

Not sure you're right about that one https://www.thetristatetour.com/schedule.asp

Hi guys, I am coming from overseas to visit for a couple of weeks next year and would like to play in one of the TriState tour events as I feel it would be a nice experience against people of similar level. I am around Fargo 500 and would like to know if they will let me play in the event or is...

Has Matchroom standarized corner pocket sizes by now (UK Open, European Open, US Open)? Does anyone know whether it's 4 or 4.25 inch and where exactly that measurement is taken? Many thanks.

Has anyone been? Is it good? And is the tournament happening this Saturday (tomorrow)? Thanks guys.

Old: winner breaks, 1 on the spot, no restrictions except forceful break New: winner breaks, 9 on the spot, with a break box and needs to be forceful Thoughts?

Hill hill grand final - racked the 9 ball on the wing spot and gifted my opponent a golden break... Still haunts me.

It absolutely sucks to see an institution close down. Mike, I sent you a private message even though I can't imagine that's your priority now.

I think Matchroom events use 1-ball on the spot (Mosconi Cup, World Pool Masters) whereas everyone else uses 9-ball on the spot... Eurotour, DCC, etc.

Hi guys, long time lurker, first time poster here. There's one thing I can't get out of my head and that's the break format that's in use at the Mosconi Cup since 2017 - 1ball on the spot. Here are a few questions that I've got and I'd really appreciate it if someone was able to help me out...
