    That’s fake. She’s too skinny to be from Nebraska.

    Of course he doesn’t. That was sarcasm.

    If only SVB had a GoFundMe of his own. TC’s GFM might need updating: “I cant go out and compete or play at the moment…”

    And be careful handling armadillos in the south - they can carry leprosy.

    Match Play10:34.30 Second Mark

    More likely is the opponent thought he hit the 10-ball first. It was close. I went frame-by-frame and the CB hit the 2 and 10 at exactly the same time.

    Rubber Rack

    I just measured a Tefco spot also - got 0.24mm. Then measured the paper backing, it was 0.06. So net thickness would be 0.18. My Outsville Accu-Rack template measured 0.25mm.

    That's a common and very legal way to aim kick shots. SVB does it frequently.

    On a podcast, Tony complained about Filler not wanting to play money matches against him, too. He hates that behavior.

    Diamond Table Light Restoration Project - Input Greatly Appreciated

    That’s correct - most already have a diffuser built in. I still think parabolic louvers improve them, but as we’ve seen in this thread, that opinion isn’t shared by everyone.

    Diamond Table Light Restoration Project - Input Greatly Appreciated

    You’ll have a similar reflection on the balls with or without diffusers/louvers. That’s totally normal.

    I broke my BK4 shaft

    I want medium-low deflection in a break shaft, around 13” pivot point ideally to match my breaking bridge length and auto-correct for unintentional off-center strikes. Hard or maybe impossible to get deflection that low with a solid and stiff 13mm shaft.

    Low deflection shafts and BHE

    You’d be correct if you were using too long of a bridge for your shaft’s PP - that would be undercorrecting for deflection. But the shot I’m talking about, where your bridge is too short for a low or ultra-low deflection shaft and you use BHE, is overcorrecting for deflection. So for example...

    Awesome shot by Fedor

    I’ll try to find out this coming week when he’s in Austin for the Texas Classic. Both the iPhone and newer GoPros can shoot 4K/60fps video of that quality - that particular video is only 760p/60 (more streaming-friendly).

    Toby Keith RIP. Also the glare from perimeter lights is a scourge upon pool halls.

    70s/80s Era Questions

    Cash is great, but it’s nice sometimes to have a permanent record of a win, like this one I had over ZM in a bar a couple years ago. The game was 8-ball, and we started at $20/game. I won, he said double or nothing, I won again, and so it went until he was down $720, exclaimed “I quit”, Venmo’d...

    Low deflection shafts and BHE

    BHE requires that you match your bridge length to the natural pivot point of your shaft. The 314-2 is medium-low deflection, around 12.5” PP. The 314 is slightly shorter. To use BHE with a lower deflection shaft, ideally you would lengthen your bridge length to match the shaft. My Cynergy 12.5...
