    How important is lighting to you?

    Pushing 73 also, seems harder and harder to find the correct lighting. Don't like it when you get down on a shot and you get a good look at light bulbs very distracting.

    How important is lighting to you?

    Very important, the brighter the better. Hate shooting a dark ball 8' away on the end rail in a shadow.

    Powder idiots

    In my case we do have a chalk cone in our room in AZ, does get some use which I can't see any reason for, usually pretty low humidity. Back in IL no powder no cone at our local room, lots of gloves. A glove works fine for me at both places.

    The Hustlers: episode 9 Atlantic City

    So they add more pool and reduce the drama, what's not to like. Maybe season two they can get Billy and Danny to do some commentary and Ken to ref and we'd have a real pool show.

    Getting a ball spot

    We use a ball spotting system for our 9 ball leagues. But in our case you must get to the spotted ball for it to be a win. if I give you 2 balls, the 7 and 8, and you sink either one while there is still a lower numbered ball on the table it's not a win. Some other people play were anytime you...

    Break, Jump, Game Cues I'm So Confused

    I prefer using a break cues when you do need to hit them hard, pretty much all the players in our local room who play quite a bit have one. Jump cues not so much and actually the room owner doesn't allow jump cues . He has his reasons that I won't go into.

    In IL less then a mile to the recently opened room in our town, 8 9' Diamonds. In AZ about 4 miles to the room I play in, 4 9' Olhausens and a 10' Olhausen snooker table. I also have the choice of two other rooms in AZ within a few miles. If I go to Pockets in Tucson it's about 25 miles. All in...

    The Hustlers: Season 1 Episode 8-July 3, 2015 Thread

    Pink 4 is from a set of Aramith TV balls, didn't really notice if the 7 was brown. Show was ok last night, more pool than drama, really makes me look forward to watching the next real pool stream.

    Accu stats make it happen updates

    Really great match, been a little surprised how quick some of the matches have been. This was more like I expected. I did have some freezing issues but I have to think it's my internet server since most people dont seem to have issues.

    Had a problem with a choppy stream during the matches but haven't had any issues watching the old guy run rotation racks, hope it stays that way for matches.
