Voted Maybe, would like to see more 9ft tables and if you are going to have a Snooker Table make it a real one....12ft. It would have to be close by for me to even consider membership and table time. Also would depend on things like video poker, how loud, some of these drive me crazy with...

Tom My wife has just finished the book and loved it, she got it last week and hasn't put it down since she started it Saturday! Now she's wondering where's the next one:) I guess I will finally get a chance to read it now! Just wanted to say thanks and also she really appreciates having Mike...

Good point about the stance, in my view that is possibly the most likely cause for the flyway elbow. However we did actually have a young kid who had this problem and it turned out to be something completely different. He would actually move his head during the shot, to the right side of the...

Bill812 raises a good point about alcohol, I believe there are vey few palyers I have ever seen who shhot better with alcohol in them. This is a definate problem and I myself face this weekly, there are normally only maybe 2 of us that haven't got sh*t faced before League matches. It's a...

Jay There's a lot of sense in what you say, especially regarding the people who would seem to be 'making up the numbers' especially in these fields of 128 etc and IMO the top pro's know it too. I have never heard a bad word spoken by anybody about these people. As you quite rightly say without...

Very good question, it is important to me in that I want to play my best and win every time I play. However in the grand scheme of things it is totally insignificant next to Family, Health, Work and Friendship. Don't get me wrong I love playing but it's not indispensible like the other things...

Personally I have no real problem with it, but IMHO a better rule may be to give your opponent the choice of shooting or passing back to you.

D_Lewis I cannot and will not speak for Sam at TAP, I wouldn't dream of it, but it would seem to me that: How much anyone earns, yes earns not makes, should be irrelevant, that's as bad as asking a Woman how old she is. Try asking one sometime, when your ears stop ringing, then listen to what...

Whilst I would never advocate for anything not approved by the FDA, I was told by a Doctor (not mine) a few years ago that I could also try DMSO, although at the time it was available only through Vets and Animal Supply places. It apparently also allows other substances to be be absorbed very...

My Team Captain asked that exact question last Thursday, wasn't I kinda piss*d that I was not yet a 7? My reply sort of threw him a bit, I told him, I really didn't care what H'Cap I was and not just because I have only been playing 5 months. It's that every time I go out there and play, I...

It's terrible, as it is, just like that glass pool table I have seen. However it's an interesting concept that maybe in a few years and with a bit more thought and development could progress intio something. I'm not sure what it might develop into though! Lets face it Billiard and Snooker...

I have never heard a mention from the Players Association about not being paid at Turning Stone, I don't believe this is the issue, would you rather be paid cash or via an Escrow...............? It would seem more likely that it could be a disagreement between the Players Association and the BCA...

Tight pockets are, IMHO, the way to go for League and Tournament Tables. Everyone should strive to be more accurate, tighter pockets make position play more important too. Being able to strike a billiard ball, hit the rail within a foot of the pocket and still see it drop in is not any fun at...

OK - Let's get some perspective here, if it wasn't for APA, BCA & TAP where would we all be? I am guessing there are things with every organization that some people disagree with, not just in Billiards either. You should all know what you are getting yourseleves involved in when you sign on for...

Oh yes and forgot to mention a big Thank You for signing my Wifes copy of Right On Cue, she was absolutely 'over the moon' you signed it.

Would love to see a player Bio up there, from where you started, first cue etc. Maybe even reviews of the latest Tournaments, including opinions on others play. Not trying to get you in trouble with them :grin: but it would be really interesting to get the inside scoop on how one pro thinks...

Frozen Shoulder was one of the possible causes for my shoulder problems, the frustrating thing with that is they really don't fully understand what causes it. Fish Oil is a good call though, I know my Dad takes it for stiff knee joints and it's not something I had thought of previously. It...

Depnds totally on the day I guess, if I had to lay my money down, I'd pick SVB just because IMO he has the better break of the two. They are both obviously capable of running multiple racks.

Calibration I too have just started experiencing the same thing again and it's the left shoulder too. I do not put my weight on that arm and do not use it to push myself up off the table, although these are great points from Blackjack that may cause others issues. Mine appears to be inside the...

I too have tried this BD and IMO it gave a little better coverage than Masters. However I will not be ordering any more as I see no significant difference in playing between the two, even with the very slightly better coverage of BD. I didn't miscue any more or less with either and therefore...
