    Ball cleaning drama, Round 2

    I think if there is something foreign on the ball that may cause something external to the shot to effect the outcome, asking it to be cleaned is no issue. Maybe a rule where you can only have one request per/match similar to the 1 extension per game rule for timed shots. Point is, players...

    Should a pro player call a foul on themselves?

    Unfortunately, you are correct and people like that ruin the fun of the game. I will always call my own fouls because I feel its the right thing to do and it is what I would hope my opponents would do as well. I also accept the fact that not all will call their own fouls. I try not to let...

    Visiting Northern VA / DC for a bit. Looking for a game.

    Awesome. Sounds like I need to hit up that Diamond for some 1P practice. :) Im not really looking for action but if I found someone to play any game with, I could play cheap just to keep it interesting. Carl B.

    This is why I don't like to play for money!!! ...

    Unfortunately that is the problem with starting a late set on a weekday. Personally I always try to establish or mention something before I start especially if I am going to be tight on time. Just as a courtesy to my opponent. As an example, "sure ill play, race to 5 for $50 but I only have...

    John Schmidt Poll

    Bold Statement... I take slight offense to this statement Danny. I have never met you in person however, I have written you a few emails and PMs that you had never replied to. I was polite, friendly, and respectful towards you. I am only replying to rebut the accusation that I quoted. I...

    Power One Pocket featuring Scott Frost

    I bought this DVD quite some time ago and I will still vouch for it as one of the best one-pocket purchases I have made. Scott is a true class act. Thanks for posting this stuff Lenny. Carl

    Going out on a limb

    Inspiring Jay, Let me say again that it was a pleasure getting to meet you while I was in LA. And this post makes me very very happy. I know the football game was a little distracting but you can tell you still felt at home on the felt. You certainly taught this young guy a few...

    The HAMB method does not work!

    Its because you have to hit a million balls for each type of shot you can get at the table. lol.

    Put the chalk back right side up.

    My father actually does this whenever we play pool. After every time he is finished at the table, I wipe down the rails before I shoot. :) I also use my own chalk and remove it from the table with me when I leave. I have noticed a lot of higher level players keep the chalk in their bridge...

    Questiion about 9-ball spots (getting the 5-8 ball)

    The 1 and the break.... really? Anyone who can shoot semi-straight and knows the mechanics of the break at all would hammer you to the wall with that. You should never get the chance to shoot, one ball, side pocket everytime. Or break a corner ball in and leave a shot on the one and its a win...

    Practicing too much?

    My Ideas Make sure you aren't practicing fatigued... Like you said, the longer you play, your body fatigues and changes your focus, stroke, stance, etc. My suggestion would be to shorten your practice sessions until you can build up your endurance to play longer and practice longer...
