Yes, same rack, I bring it from my house. I check the spot from the diamonds on the table using my cue as a straight edge. Dirty cloth or balls......good idea.

Hmmm, good info. I will try moving the rack down a bit at the pool hall. Maybe people are pounding the balls into submission? Who knows....

Hmmm, this is a possibility. At my house the balls are kept fairly clean. My buddies house, not sure and pool hall well....they are dirty.

No, the rack is straight....

No, I check that as soon as the wing ball misses, short of the pocket. The spot is in the correct place....

I have played on many tables but for this thread I'm going to focus on a 9ft Diamond table. At home I have a 9ft Diamond Pro with Simonis 860HR. I practice breaking and the wing ball goes in almost every time. It just shoots into the corner and I basically just play shape on the 1 ball. I've...

*ding* *ding* *ding* We have a winner!!!! By using a few different patterns you can't be called for pattern racking :)

My BCA league is $6 a week. None of this goes to the bar/pool hall. We play on bar tables and it's $1 per game, this all goes to the bar/pool hall. They also get any money from drinks and food.

I have a 1st generation 314, bought it new in 2005ish. I've never replaced the ferule.

I didn't know much about it, guess I haven't been reading threads much lately. Besides that, I don't have a way of doing a video and uploading it to my computer. Maybe I will get a cheap camera($100), mount it and give it a whirl. Of course this will have to wait until my new Diamond light gets...

Hey! I've never been mean to you either.....but I'm not mean to anybody. I also only have 1 person on ignore, ironically it's the other user mentioned in this thread. LOL

In your scenario, Jayson would have the higher rating. Fargo is based on "all" wins and losses vs. your opponents rating. It doesn't matter who wins the tournament, you are rated on all your matches.

Doing drill basically teaches you how to make that ball and play shape for your next shot. This is very good practice for a beginner. Once you know how to do a shot, there is no reason to shoot it 100 more times. Playing against an opponent will put more pressure on you and teaches you how to...

This is from the BCAPL.... OFFICIAL RULES OF CUESPORTS INTERNATIONAL 24 Penalty for (c): first offense – warning. Second and subsequent offenses – foul. d. You may not shoot while using more than two mechanical bridges at any one time. A bridge may only be used to support the cue or another...

I just read the APA rules and nowhere is it mentioned how to properly use the bridge. There are a bunch of quirky rules but I could not find "proper use of bridge" anywhere.

Why do I suddenly have the munchies? :thumbup2:

I have a 9ft Diamond Pro with Pro Cut pockets, 4.5 inch. I moved a few months ago and at the new house I ordered a Diamond Light to match my table. It's set up in my living room so I wanted it to look really nice since everybody can see it now. It's been 3 months since I ordered the light and...

Here is what I would have done. If my opponent was obviously being super picky and wanted gaps only in certain spots.....after the ref was called over, I would make it clear that the ref would inspect each rack. Once the ref is called over, the other player loses their privilege to inspect the...

Worthy of a repost :)

COOL! You may have found a nice lil gem. Too bad that table can't tell you some stories, bet there would be some good ones.....
