    Predator table review, 2024 Expo

    Well, I am far from an "expert" pool player, nor am I a pool table expert for that matter. However, I've played on a lot of tables, in a lot of venues, over the course of forty years.

    Does anyone know anything about this signed Helmstetter cue?

Original owner (my dad) bought in August 1990. I believe -- and I could be wrong -- that this series, or the...

    New Here? - Introduce Yourself

    Thanks for the welcome bbb...Ginky was local (before his move to Queens) and I used to see him a lot. I didn't know him well, but he recognized me and knew me by name as I hung around with some of the guys he knew very well. Also, we were much closer in age than some of the older crowd so we fit...
