    Tony Chohan foul

    I have seen it called when a player laid his cue on the table to go to the men's room. When leaving the table the custom was leave your cue on the table to show a game is in progress. Can't remember how the referee handled it. Hopefully it was denied because it was not to measure.

    Anyone clean their tips on the carpet before putting it back in the case?

    And oh yeah the difficult ones would get penetration pokes with the tip of a razor knife. Just a few to allow the moisture to penetrate.

    Anyone clean their tips on the carpet before putting it back in the case?

    Oh gosh that brings back a funny memory. Long ago and far away, I had told a ring game friend that dents in a shaft can be steamed out. I told of how I used an electric fry pan with a little vent in the cover to direct steam to a small dent. Spit and burnish for instant small repairs. His...

    Experiments in looking at the cueball while delivering the stroke.

    Watching this video to try and get a read on Neal Robertson's eyes. Got a good read on Stewart Bingham first. 🤷‍♂️ His eyes were down until the white was struck on the one good reading.

    Ah Hah, I had suspected perhaps Kyren might be looking at the white when he hits it, well lately. Knowing the relationship he had with Barry makes it an interesting study. At the 37 minutes mark the camera work on the break off shot provides a good look at his eye pattern. His conversation with...

    How to Be More Accurate With Jacked-Up or Elevated-Cue Shots

    A legitimate on topic post. Shrug. At the 6 minute mark in the linked video Kyren employed a uncommon but acceptable method to gain extreme elevation at long distance. Notice the stance as well.

    Practice what I Preach

    The 3 a day practice regimen starts with 1 hour sessions. The Chase then The kicking Mule then 3 ball. The break is best practiced here. 4" off center with dead center strike to whitey should bounce straight back. The yellow pad was launch and the threesome sat on the white pad.....8" in front...

    Experiments in looking at the cueball while delivering the stroke.

    Well ooops! DID Selby hit more than 1 shot? Yikes but still what a display John Higgins put on. There can be no doubt where his eyes were. Hope he's not Faking it. 🤷‍♂️

    Must be time for me to get back in My room. 🤷‍♂️ Oh my what a topic. Oh well. Just dropped in to add my latest discovery. Well it's incomplete that I have only viewed the opening break shot executed by Mark Selby. It's not what I expected a couple days ago. It will be interesting to see if he...

    Anyone clean their tips on the carpet before putting it back in the case?

    When I was gold dredging on Butte creek I had salmon rub against me as they were going upstream to spawn. Of corse I was in a wet suit and stiring up helgramites that drifted out of my tailings. The trout liked that. They probably told the salmon that I was okay. Shrug 🤷‍♂️

    How to Be More Accurate With Jacked-Up or Elevated-Cue Shots

    Well, I do my best to be respectful. I do get excited when I know the answer. 😉 I have a weakness for standing up for what I know to be right. And or Wrong. 🤷‍♂️ Okay an example, caution it's a long Grampa story: Way back when I was in high school (66-69) , playing football and baseball were...
