Upstate Al loves pool and works his ass off promoting pool. Op...Would you say this to his face in person?

I just read on FB that Shane Winters won the "Amateur" Open.

What a great post. Thanks for sharing, your progress and perspective is inspirational Demi!

ive never watched these snooker events you speak of. Is there usually a live stream?

Paul Turner from Georgia was said to have run alot of racks on the barbox. It was a double digit number and I want to say I heard it was 17. Maybe someone from Georgia can chime in. Take a look at the USBTC videos on youtube and watch how they are slow breaking and making the wing ball with...

I was watching the stream when this happened. My take on this was that Rodney is more the type that just throws the balls up there and accepts that the rack isnt perfect but he plays hit the rack hard and deal with it. Dechaine is one of the more modern players that has determined that racking...

5k added amateur bar table for both the women and the mens is incredible. That will be the largest money added amateur event of the year. I do wonder what will be the way they determine amateur status. I would say fargo rate maybe but I was looking at the fargo rate thing the other day and so...

BAM! Go Rob!!

following off the 14 uptable to get on the 11 in the side is tricky. You have a very small window to get into. You fall too short and now you have to go into the balls with 9 possibly being moved towards the side rail and tied up. If you fall too far uptable you could get behind/on top of the 9...

"we should bet on some of these TAR matches...this will be fun!" then I go 0-11. This is like how I was in the hospital for doing stupid things that required stitches and surgeons a half a dozen times before I was 10 years old. Its all kinda of humorous how bad ideas can seem so right at the...

I know Billy Burke and I think you might have jumped the gun on the whole beware thing. Sounds like both parties didnt trust each other much here, which after all the I got screwed over by so and so on AZ nowadays, who can blame either party for getting anxious over the other. Just wanted to...

If you read my post you would see that I sold my showman titlist. I actually own very few cues nowadays just my player (Gus) and a few old joss cues and a Scruggs titlist. None of my cues are a showman. But go on and continue calling me selfish and how I'm working to keep my investment up if it...

Showman built me a cue a while back. My experience with him was somewhat different. I met John at Ted Harris's shop. I honestly did not know who Showman was and at the time I had come up to Ted's shop with three old Titlist one piece cues. I was going to take one to Dennis and I wanted Ted to...

You make a good point that you have had direct and prolonged experience with him in competition. Most of us here have only seen him for brief moments in time, either in person or tv. This to me is like how NFL referees that are in position sitting right in front of the play and have done this...

I use to believe that lifting weights for strength and mass could not be done and was in the camp to at least lay off the weights in the weeks leading up to competition. Then I saw what Donny Mills and Mike Davis did and they convinced me it was possible to do both at the same time. Risk of...

lol good story Chuck. the score card part was just great. :thumbup: I have been hustled while trying to hustle many times in the 1980s and 1990s. first big gambling match I ever had hen guy aired me with a rubber check for over 1000 but not before I first paid time as the big "winner". I was...

I fly all the time with cues. I recommend getting a 36 inch rolling duffel luggage. This is what I have http://www.lordandtaylor.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/en/lord-and-taylor/ch-97-20-explorer-36-wheeled-duffel Before you think about just shipping your cues, let me tell you a story. In...

a really good florida player and i were talking in jacksonville recently. He is very old school when it comes to pool which is no surprise as he has lived his life playing pool for a living and has run around matching up all over the country. He has done pretty good for himself, he had the...
