    US National snooker championship streamed live

    Great initiative, and thanks for sharing. Couple of questions: 1) Will all streamed matches be recorded so we can watch later? 2) Will there be any commentary during the frames or just a live feed?

    The Canadian Snooker Championships 2012

    Are you going again this year? There is a slight chance I'll be around too. I may have to travel to Ottawa for work around those dates and if so I might drive down the 401 to see what the Shooters look like.

    The Canadian Snooker Championships 2012

    So what's the official status of Pagulayan for next year? I read somewhere he'd be a wildcard for the World Snooker tour next year. Is he the wild card for North America? Or Asia? How does that work? Is he really going to enter some tournaments?

    The Canadian Snooker Championships 2012

    If I recall correctly last year they admitted not putting enough time and money to set up the streams and they said they'd try to do a better job this year. Let's see how it goes... For snooker news in Canada there is snookerline.com but that is obviously not as thorough as the Sporting Life...

    Snooker in/around NYC Tonight?

    Thought I'd follow up on this. After exchanging a few emails with Rethunk/Gary, I ended up taking a cab and playing a few hours at Top 147 Snooker Club in Brooklyn (http://nysnooker.com). Really nice place. As the name indicates, it's a snooker club -- not a pool hall with snooker tables. Very...

    Snooker in/around NYC Tonight?

    All: Visiting NYC this weekend. What's a good place to play snooker tonight? I know from findsnooker.com some of them are private clubs. Which one is public, easily accessible and have nice house cues (I don't have mine). Thanks!

    Anyone Sign Up For LiveWorldSnooker.TV ?

    I also signed up a few weeks ago. Agreed with Cameron re: reliability and quality. It works just fine. Nothing outstanding but similar quality than the free feeds, and good enough to watch it in the living room on the LCD TV in full screen mode (it's only snooker after all). In my case the free...

    Closest snooker table to Boston?

    I doubt that there is a public registry of snooker players in the US (rethunk would have found it!). The alternative for you is probably the snooker ladder in Ayer (see http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=206427) -- we're about 25 players now.

    Frustrated...

    If you don't mind not watching the matches live or if you experience poor quality from live streams you can download most matches on torrent sites. The best I know for that is probably thebox.bz. Just create a [free] account and browse/search the torrent files. It can take anything between a...

    Closest snooker table to Boston?

    Yes, it did for two reasons: 1- The table is not perfectly centered in the room so, as I said before, because the room is barely large enough to fit the table the yellow pocket side (the left end side from the deceiving picture) lacks a couple of inches when the cue ball is right against the...

    Closest snooker table to Boston?

    Stopped by tonight and played for about an hour. I can confirm that this is a 12x6. Nice table (unclear what it is though, looks like an oak Riley but could not see any brand on it), nice cloth, awkward location (separate from other pool tables, in a room that can barely fit the table). Aramith...

    Closest snooker table to Boston?

    Billiards Cafe - 6x12 Snooker Table I spent 4 hours at the Billiards Cafe last night. Played about 3 of them on the very nice 6x12 snooker table. The cloth is brand new, and the rails and pockets are nice. I had a quick chat with both the owner and the manager of the place -- they're very proud...
