We had a couple in Phoenix work the system to get the husband lowered to gain entry into a capped event. They got busted and dragged through the mud for months. It can be used the wrong way, as all things. Maybe everyone in the pool community got it wrong and the matches were legit. I don't...

I don't watch snooker but I assume there is no shot clock. If that is the case I will assume MR does not care to add a clock to the early rounds of pool. The only way a chess style clock would work is if it was activated by the players AND the table. By that I mean the pockets would have to be...

Shaw is on fire to start. Ran first 3 racks.

A chess-style clock smarta55. I didn't anticipate confusing anyone with that comment. I'll try to find a crayon font when you're involved in the thread. A player shouldn't need 3 minutes after the break to make a decision.

Sanjin is taking forever to do anything. The last 64 needs to be played with at least a chess clock if they can't have a ref to manage the time.

Oscar got it 10-7

I've been catching up on this thread and figure I'll comment. 1. First, we agree on hosting qualifying tournaments for the big events. I don't want these to all become invitationals -especially not the US Open, which has always been a place for an unknown to possibly make a splash in the US...

Bingo. I've rooted for that kid to keep coming up and get to the top level for years. I will now be rooting for his opponents fort he rest of his petty, cheating, career. That was a disgrace to the game and an embarrassment to the player. I've complained in the past about the "all ball fouls"...

They are dedicated to growing pool -just not in the US.

Shoot, I forgot they are Kim Steele tables iirc. They do look (and crack), just like plastic though. The seams match up really well though. Much better than any GC I've owned.

I think I read on here that a member bought a pool cue case at a yard sale for cheap and "found" a Black Boar cue inside. That guy wins.

I will consider a Chinese plastic-looking table if Diamond closes down for good one day and no quality tables made in the US exist. I have had several GCs but now that they are made in China, I have no interest. I am happy with my ProAm and it banks the way a table should. The fit of the...

Hennessee #1 I'm new to TN, but the names I hear the most behind him are Eric Roberts and Josh O'Neal. I may not have heard the other big names because I am too far west. There is decent action in my area if you're in the 500-600 fargo range. It's not so easy if you're over that. Half of the...

Yup. When I started taking lessons I had to learn a new way to hold the cue, new stance, new stroke, etc. It took about 3 months to get back to where I was but then my game just kept going up after that. Hang in there. Do the work. Profit.

Most brands are better than Kamui, they just have less money for advertising. Dawg duds, Talisman, and Tiger all play better than Kamui in my opinion. I have tried more than one Kamui to form this opinion.

She seems like a good kid. If she keeps the same level of passion for the game, her future in pool looks bright. I don't think players should create their own nicknames though.

I have not noticed any difference in playability. I can keep the black cleaner and undamaged when changing tips. That super soft white ferrules on the Cynergy -not so much.

Best of luck on the recovery. give me a heads-up if you do head this way.

I owned the original with the spring-projected red missile thing. It was deemed a choking hazard. Montgomery Ward did the recall giving me the new fix-mounted fett and a marchbox car in exchange for the unicorn.

Wow, that's some serious money right there. Thank you for the offer of your time/knowledge on the subject. I'll message some pics when I get time.
