Just read this article about the decline of bowling. Never really been into bowling, but I noticed some parallels to pool- debates about who business owners should cater to (causals vs serious players), traditional games/tables (of course the bar table craze in the US and I didn't know that...

Depends on how heavy you lift- I've been lifting heavy (for me- there are guys at the gym much stronger than me) for decades on a consistent basis and I still get sore- it alleviates after a few days of training a body part, but you still get sore.

I've been lifting weights for 35 years and playing pool for around 30 of those years. In my experience, it makes no difference especially if you have been working out for a long time- your body gets adjusted to it. In fact, I'd probably play worse if I stopped working out as I would feel out of...

Since he brought it up, does anybody know what specific health ailment Chohan has? Also, he stated that he beat SVB over and over even in rotation games- SVB must have been giving him weight, correct?

I think very few people are, so it begs the question why they still have them. I understand if it is for themselves, but if it is for the fans, it is a bad idea.

After using the Cuetec Cynergy carbon fiber shaft for several years, I recently returned to my wood shaft- Cuetec R360- great cue, but I don't think they sell it any more. Thinner shaft and smaller tip- I think there is a subtle difference in that it does seem to improve my shot accuracy

There are too many variables that really determine what the outcome would be. For example, one could argue that Landon Shuffett has just a much playing ability as Gorst and Filler, but he choose not to pursue pool. Bergman and Dechaine are also top level talents but never really lived up to...

Melling is so supremely talented. He is one of the most impressive players in terms of shot making, rapidity of play and mentality. It’s almost demoralizing to watch him play because he makes it look so effortless

Filler really uses a 16 oz cue? That is extremely light

Great table! Wish I had the space

Just saw on FB post from UpState Al that Buddy passed away. RIP to a legend

Apparently not- he posted on Facebook a few weeks ago that Hunter Lombardo had him demonstrate his ambidextrous abilities in front of his students getting lessons from Hunter and he just decided on the spur of the moment to return to shooting right handed. I haven't been watching this...

Whenever I see his name I can’t get earl’s voice out of my head from when he commentated old matches for the Billiard Network during the pandemic “Pijus to break!”

I think one complication is that small, regional tournaments would find it difficult to determine who is transgendered if the person doesn't publicly identify as such. Not all cases are obvious by appearance and it would take significant resources to run chromosomal and hormonal tests.

you may be correct about the tactical differences- perhaps Dave left that out because that would be more difficult to prove via statistics- not every match has an accu stats like tabulation- the TPA or whatever they call it

Am interesting accu stats match with Maddux & DiLiberto commentating. Is Maddux still with us? If so, would be great if he still did some commentary- very knowledgeable.

doesn't sound like a good idea to race to 120 when you have a neck problem

I hope he continues to enter more high level tournaments. He isn't that old- should be able to return to his top form. On a side note, Stevie Moore won that tournament 5 times- good work! I wonder if he still plays at all.

How do you think she compare to Sofia Mast? Mast is a very solid player. I've watched both and can't really decide who is better.

I've heard that many of the guys from HOB now play at the Libertad Soccer Club on Olympic right next to Taco's Por Favor. I haven't been in there in a while though, but I've heard they upgraded the tables.
