    Case prices

    I bought my case because I wanted the best protection I could get at a reasonable price. I simply cannot justify paying hundreds or thounds of $'s for a case, maybe I'm just a tight arse! Thats why I went out and bought the new Sterling Wave and paid $140 and believe it's as good at protection...

    Ronnie O'Sullivan calls his shot. 147 with a twist.

    Just to stir things up a bit, I would say Jimmy White at his best was as good or better a cueist and shot maker. Not saying his results reflect that but he had both Stephen Hendry and Steve Davis at their best to contend with and I don't think there's much doubt those two are the best there has...

    What is the best 8 ball advice you've ever gotten?

    All good advice and I would go along with all that. The advice I was given when I started playing 8 Ball, was pretty sound I think. Don't force it and try to run out when a good safety will probably get you the same result with less problems. Never worry about who you are playing, always play...

    Ronnie O'Sullivan calls his shot. 147 with a twist.

    Cashman you maybe right about maximum break prizes, as there is a lot less money to go around these days. I believe Ronnie is probably the most naturally gifted player the game has ever seen. My point though is that at some point you'd think he would grow up, but I guess not. I remember a few...

    Ronnie O'Sullivan calls his shot. 147 with a twist.

    I agree that sucks, but not because of the money, just that Ronnie continues to be an arse and treat the fans like that. They pay the guys wages, without fans there would be no sponsors and no money for Ronnie.

    Ronnie O'Sullivan calls his shot. 147 with a twist.

    Typical Ronnie O'Sullivan, imagine how good he could be if his brain was actually wired correctly, what a dick.

    US Customs

    Never had anything at any time of year sit more than a day, two at the absolute outside, when they have even bothered to look inside, from Europe or Australia. Do you have something sitting in Customs now and if so how long?

    Buyer Problem...need advice please

    I would check to see if he's logged on, if he is PM him, if no response then it's time to move forward. The guy may also be out of town, there's afair bit of stuff going on at the moment all over, but again if you are out of town doesn't mean you can't log on!

    Can a poolroom make it without liquor nowdays?

    I think it would be very difficult to start a new Pool Room today without the sale of Alcohol just from the financial side. However those that do make a go of it, should be applauded for their stand on what they believe in. But IMO, Alcohol in itself is not a problem, when was the last time you...

    Rug under table ???

    I have also seen some people get under the table and lift it up using their back and shoulders one side at a time. You need extremely strong shoulder and thigh muscles to do it, but it beats taking the table down I guess! Asked if I'd do it? Probably not, I'd get the kids to do it:)

    The Atlanta Billiard Show

    Give yourself plenty of time to get there if there is a concert or if you are travelling around I285 Wed, Thurs or especially Fri. Last time we went to the center for a concert it took us an hour and a half just to get from I285to the Center. I will never go to the Center during the week again...

    Free ideas to get more viewers watching pool

    There are some great ideas here already. IMO Pool needs to get things moving and quickly to make sure it moves forward and doesn't stagnate or go backwards as it appears to be doing. We need to eventually draw in people from outside of the immediate Pool world, both Fans and Sponsors. Several...

    Mike Deshaine-Right on Cue

    Challenge To You All Hey come on everyone let's support Tom by buying his book, so that we can ensure the next one is published at someone else's expense not just Tom's. I bought a copy of Tom's book and got it with both Tom and Mike's signature and gave it to my wife. She reads books by the...

    What type of shaft for a new player ??

    I see absolutely no reason for her to use anything other than what feels right for her. Personally I dislike LD shafts because they feel alien and for my game they do not seem to be LD, they play exactly the same as my regular shaft. If she feels as or more comfortable using the LD let her use it.

    I need some mental game help...

    This IMO is definately a mind thing, I have seen it before and nobody can fix it but you, they can suggest everything and anything but you must fix it. Concentration is probably the key, how you figure out what's happening and why is the difficult part. I would first try maybe slowing yourself...

    Sterling Cue Cases Website

    I have the Wave (Black & Brown) and it is awesome as good as anything out there on the market. The interior of the case, IMO, is as good or better than cases at many times the price.

    Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

    I did read somewhere, although I don't remember where and cannot get it confirmed by Matchroom, that the previous year's MVP would be a pick for the Mosconi Cup. Of course if that's the case and Dennis is already in, I would assume that SVB will be the other pick and JA and RM would be in as the...
