    Iowa 2025 - Ultimate Pool USA

    Here are the applicable rules (a) The player MUST indicate to the referee and/or the opponent the intended group. (b) Failure to call a group, after pocketing a ball, whilst the table is open, is loss of turn (See Rule6d), the table remains open. Joe Prince must not have said stripes to either...

    What is the One Major Player Flaw You See Most Often At The Pool Hall

    Starts with no bridge, then no stroke & ends with no clue. Most don't care, so who really gives a rats arse. Oh yeah, everyone thinks they are good & under no circumstances will accept any help.

    What is your definition..,

    Not a pro in both examples.

    What is your definition..,

    Your theoretical player could still be considered a pro. A pro with a need for a real job. Entering a tournament as a professional for example should make you a professional. Doesn't have anything to do with success or lack thereof. Without a governing body defining amateur / pro status in...

    Interesting Insights from Rory Mcllroy's Psych Doc

    I guess Tiger Woods never needed Jay Brunza. If anyone thinks Jack never worked with Bob Rotella - well you would be wrong.

    Pro Equipment

    The serious player uses the same equipment all the time. It becomes an extension of his / her arm. Again nobody gives a shit what you are playing with. If you don't have game with any kind of cue then being taken seriously isn't going to happen. Yes everyone who doesn't want to get the most...

    Most of the tables in play don’t have much of an audience.

    Ultimate Pool USA

    They have a rule where you have to make an attempt to play a ball of your own group. I don't think that would be terribly hard to work around.

    Ultimate Pool USA

    The time limits are mostly enforced on the tv table or what is called the main arena area. Slop counts in Ultimate Pool, but let's be real it doesn't come into play much if not at all. You pick your set, stripes or solids. Once contact is made first with your chosen set, nothing else...

    Anyone ever deal with recollection cues?

    Just received a cue from Tom Watters @ Recollection cues. From my experience he is a very stand up legitimate businessman. He even knocked a couple bucks off the listed price for me.

    What is your definition..,

    There is no definition of a pro pool player. There is no governing body when it comes to pool. No definition of what makes anyone amateur or professional. No set limit on money won that could impact amateur status & make one a professional etc etc. Maybe we are all professionals!! :ROFLMAO:

    Has anyone coached a friend through their earbuds?

    How many of you have tried to "coach" someone with a shot only to be told "Are you crazy, I can't do that!!”

    UK “women’s” final

    On the other side of the coin she could be topped out already. All the young lady does is play pool - I would expect more at this stage.

    UK “women’s” final

    Did she win? IMO she shouldn't even be playing in those events as a "professional." All she does is play pool correct? Running through a bunch of guys that are over 100 Fargo points shy of being a bottom of the rung pro really isn't that impressive in the grand scheme of things.

    Tony Chohan foul

    WPA says this If the shooter uses his cue stick in order to align a shot by placing it on the table without having a hand on the stick, it is a foul. CSI says this You may use your cue, held in your hand or not, to help align a shot. Rules of the Amar Kang were BCA, so one could quickly...
