    Just announced--johnny vs ignacio!

    Texas express killed it, agree. Not saying that it is not fun to play on a night out with friends because I do, but serious competition? C'mon guys. There is a movement in Europe to make 9 ball championship matches a called game. If there is one tournament I like to attend every chance I get is...

    Just announced--johnny vs ignacio!

    I also might be one of the minority who likes call shot-call safe, those of you who don't like it, you better not try to play American Rotation, or Pinoy style of rotation, both 15 ball rotation games, not even ball in hand anywhere on the table exist in the Philipines. My personal opinion, it...

    Just announced--johnny vs ignacio!

    Someone mention the call shot call safe rules sucks and takes away excitement out of the game, .....WHAT?!! My personal opinion is that at a pro level like these guys, everything should be called, as a matter of fact, I'm also a proponent of taking the 9 on the break wins out of the equation...

    Johnny Archer vs Jeffrey Ignacio, money game

    Set for this Saturday, Marietta Billiard Club (Johnny's place) at 6 pm ET, Johnny Archer vs Jeffrey Ignacio, race to 25, call shot call safety, if you hook your opponent without calling a safety most likely you get the shot back, no room for two way shots, love it! Who's your favorite and why...

    Burnishing mushroomed tip or shaving

    Thank you guys! Like the idea of beating it up at first then shaving it. Thought about a softer tip, but feels that it gives more english than I intend for the way I play. You learn something new everyday, thanks!

    Burnishing mushroomed tip or shaving

    Might be a dumb question, but is bothering me a little lately. A tip mushrooms due to compression after a period of time, almost everybody I know burnish it back to shape, my issue is, correct me if I'm wrong, it will be back to shape but the integrity of the tip is gone, pushing it in by force...

    9ft table in 14ft wide room

    Hmm, a little tough. My room is 15.5' wide so I have about 68" clearance on both sides, my cues are 58". 14' should give you at least 60" on both sides. All based on my 9' Diamond Pro Am table, which is wider than most, since the sides extends 7" from the cushions. I'm want to say that it will...

    Leo Pool Tables

    A friend of mine sent me this link of a 9' table made in China identical to a Gold Crown V, he played on one of them and he said spot on with Brunswick, he also said that they are built a lot better than the original GC V, and is all cherry wood with veneers on the top. Has anyone seen this or...

    About tips

    I know this has been discussed quite a bit, but still having difficulties finding the right tip for me. Came back to the game after a very looooooong period out of it. So many tips, it can be confusing. Started using Kamui brown medium, liked it, then tried Everest and liked it but to me it was...

    Diamond tables?

    Bought a 9' Pro Am, Chery finish, beautiful table. I'm glad I went with Diamond, was looking at a Brunswick GC but purchased the Pro Am, couldn't be happier. As mentioned before, they worry about their products, I had an issue with the return system and spoke with Brian on the phone as I as...

    Diamond tables?

    I went through the same thing when I bought my Pro Am table new. They are not a big company and the owners and main guys are players also, they are all on the road a lot, specially if there is a tournament or expo, answering back to messages is not always a quick one. I ended up purchasing from...
