    Los Angeles area

    Lou, I usually stay out of posting on threats that get slightly out of hand such as this one has. I think Jay made and offer for practice partners and nowhere did I get the impression that he was interested in making a high wager game other than something small or even just for dinner. I...

    2nd ball break

    A good reason to use the second ball break that hasn't been mentioned is that the cue ball has a much smaller chance to scratch because it's pushing all balls away from it and it's going to a safe zone. You just need to put a good stroke on it with outside English to keep it from going cross...

    Pool table covers

    Because my table is inside I'm not concerned with moisture, mostly dust and such. I wanted something that I could put on my table for the times that I would be away for a few days. I wanted a cover that would not take too much space when stored away and one that I could easily put on and take...

    BCA rules.

    What if it's the eight ball that is hanging and you're shooting at it and it falls just before the cue ball get there and the cue ball goes into the hole. Do you lose for scratching on the eight?

    Opinions: Ball Return or NO

    I too have done pretty much what you did to quite down the balls in the ball return and tray. Now when a ball drops one might think it got stuck in the track until you hear it drop into the tray. I have a Centennial and they have tubes cut in half and it's easy to line them with something to...

    Question for APA players

    I think that prior to the start of the league or when a new player joins the team it should be explained that the coach will be the one to call time outs and that they may occur while the player is in position to shoot. Many times the coach waits to see what the player decides to do before...

    why everyone should learn one pocket

    One of the biggest assets of one pocket that carries over to all other games is the fact that you work so hard to work a shot out of your opponents, sometimes many innings go by before you finally get to shoot at something. When that shot finally appears you force yourself to apply all of your...

    Chohan V Orcollo October 5 –8

    Dennis is playing for the money, not to please the spectators, If anybody gets in the box with him they can expect to see him play at his pace. They have the choice to play or not. DO does what he thinks is necessary to win. That's the way he plays all games and I admire him for that. I had a...

    8-Ball Rule Qeustion

    so what would happen if your ball is hanging in a pocket and I'm on the eight ball and call it to the spocket where your ball is hanging. I shoot the eight ball and your ball falls in before the eight ball gets there and then the eight goes in. Did I win or do they get respotted?

    8-Ball Rule Qeustion

    I would think that it would be a scratch. If the ball stood there for a good while and then fell as you took the shot then it could be argued that it was your motions while taking the shot that caused it to fall.
