    2nd ball break

    I have used the 2nd ball and 3rd ball breaks with extremely great success. Over the past few years I've been hitting a hard head ball break though. After reading this thread I'm making the switch back to a 2nd ball break and a 3rd ball when the table calls for it. My experience has been...

    My dissapointment with Ki-techs and Great White chalk

    For me it wasn't $20. I had 2 faulty tips installed and then tried the replacements for another 2 installs. $80 total plus approx. 6 hrs in travel and install time. I hate wasting time the most! Also, not playing to the best of my abilities for 2 months with the faulty soft hoping for it to...

    My dissapointment with Ki-techs and Great White chalk

    Thanks for the tips about the G2 knockoffs. I read soooo many positive reviews of these tips I thought positive and negative can help a company and players. I suggest you stock plenty of Ki-techs as soo many people have found a new lifelong tip. Sadly, mine was discontinued and I'm on the hunt...

    My dissapointment with Ki-techs and Great White chalk

    Again, this shows how much of a class act you and your company are! Originally I posted in my Facebook group looking for BD locally or someone that has Magic or Blue Great White. After that I rummaged through old pool stuff and gave the Great White a try and felt compelled to post my...

    My dissapointment with Ki-techs and Great White chalk

    Thanks for the reply Chris and information. The tips are not for everyone, but no tip is. I'm glad your QC on your tips and chalk have improved. I was just tired of being a guinea pig and spending money on a bad batch of tips and bad batch of Great White chalk plus install fees on tips and...

    My dissapointment with Ki-techs and Great White chalk

    The tip that they stopped making was a Kamui medium soft brown. It displayed MS on it. I've tried the medium brown, med black. Soft and super soft blacks and brown soft. Out of the 6 M/S I had 4 played the best I've ever had and haven't found anything that matches it for the whole life of the...

    My dissapointment with Ki-techs and Great White chalk

    So, I haven't been around lately and not up to date with what's been going on but here is a my review that might help someone. First, I have supported AZ'ers like Tom Hay with Ultraskins, Pooldawgs milk duds, bought my Lucasi Air Hog, Hanshew jump, JB case, magic racks, case of triangle green...

    Frost vs Pagulayan UPDATES

    Did you consider Alex the best on the planet since their last match? Frost was considered by many the best for years. Everyone still hyped him up as the best even after Alex crushed him. Then the same people flop back and want odds on the money to bet on Scott! Lol. The last match was gaffy...

    Controversy over Corey Deuel break

    "He was saying in 9 ball" I think is what you meant. The wing ball in 8 ball is the same definition as 9 ball. The outermost ball. In 8 ball it's the last row either corner. Have you ever 2nd ball broke? It's a ball that sometimes fires right in. With a magic rack twist it can be made dead...

    Controversy over Corey Deuel break

    I'm fine with it happening once and showing the flaws. I'm just surprised it's happened again. 8 ball rules aren't set in stone and are constantly changing, this pattern racking rule needs to be addressed. Reno changed it during the tourney after the hotseat match where I think Corey first...

    Controversy over Corey Deuel break

    I think you got confused or didn't read my post carefully. I'm talking about the wing ball on a 8 ball rack. He used a 2nd ball break with a twist. If I'm confused and you're talking about 8 ball and by " one ball " you mean head ball, I would love to see someone consistently make the wing...

    Controversy over Corey Deuel break

    Yes, I do know Neil. This is Corey Deuel we're talking about! He will do anything to gain an advantage. Now about the lag, I can't help you if you think that was cheating but I'll try. Corey's ball was already set before the handshake. After the shake Stan downs a ball at the other end while...

    Controversy over Corey Deuel break

    Do you consider twisting the rack in 8 ball cheating? Corey was caught and warned about twisting the rack to wire the wing ball with the magic rack in 8 ball. This was at the Chinook winds tourney where they had one pattern for everyone. Alternate stripes and solids. Someone else asked about...

    Controversy over Corey Deuel break

    Apparently the next event will have the same pattern for everyone and Corey will have to compete just like everyone else. I'm surprised they didn't already expect this to happen and have the alternating stripes vs solids rule. The Reno finals and the recent Chinook winds open used this after...

    Controversy over Corey Deuel break

    It does hurt pool. I'm surprised you don't see it. A fine battle? Corey's a lock for 1 pocket and heavy favourite in straight pool. I'm sure if Corey wanted to play 9ft 10 ball or standard box 8 ball Corey can get all he wants. If they play either let me know if you wanna sweat it.

    Controversy over Corey Deuel break

    This is not the way the box 8 ball is supposed to be played. This wing ball bank pattern rack and his 2nd ball pattern rack is as greasy as it gets! Corey's great at creating these silly racks but new rules will now have to follow to change this from happening again. This is not helping pool...

    April 24-26 16 Top Professionals - 8 Ball Race to 15 - BIG MONEY!

    Thanks Benny. Have you noticed anyone other than Corey doing it? Is it working for Corey?

    April 24-26 16 Top Professionals - 8 Ball Race to 15 - BIG MONEY!

    Is there any specific rules on racking? Like alternating stripes and solids? I like Corey's chances if he can use his 2nd ball pattern rack. I'm also interested if anyone else adopts it. FTR I believe it should be one pattern for everyone where you alternate stripes and solids. I think the CWO...

    Proud of my son for not winning!

    Congrats on all the great finishes. Maybe record and let him review as many matches and practice as possible. Sometimes we need to "see it to believe it". It will also give him positive reinforcement seeing himself improve on his weaknesses. Position play and correct pattern routes can also...
