Beautiful table , really like lighter colored rails , think they frame the playing surface better , wish it had green cloth .:wink:

Appreciation to all the vets and especially those suffering at the hands of government agencies established to help them in appreciation(rather the lack of) for their service.

Yes , nice win for Monica . She always seemed to handle pressure well . Haven't seen the women play in a while , thought she was part owner in a pool room .

Never a problem with sweating hands , after i bought my own cue i used a burnishing leather on the shaft , never used powder after that .

I think in some places if someone flipped they dumped their backer .

Think Dick Lane was a real good 14.1 man at one time , and was a partner in the Click's franchise i think , he had an education also .Bob Vanover comes to mind. Since you mentioned CJ , i don't think he graduated from high school so his success in business is a pretty good achievement. Noticed...

I can't speak for Europe but the reason for the decline in pool in the U.S. is access to pool tables . Most teenagers do not have access to pool tables because pre-teens and teens aren't allowed in places where alcohol is served , and most bars have bar tables . A parent can accompany a child ...

I think the trick shots are for those that don't really play pool but can appreciate some of the difficult shots . Casual players maybe .

The only thing we can find is bar-style tables, and that's not what we're looking for. We would like a 1" slate table, preferably with pockets rather than a ball return mechanism, that doesn't look like we got it from the dive bar down the street. Any suggestions?? I believe Olhausen has drop...

I also believe taper and weight and balance can effect follow through and wrist snap. kd I agree with this , hard to find a house cue with forward balance , mostly butt heavy. Taper doesn't matter much to me since most house cues are 13mm , and i like that . Don't think it matters except for...

Reading the thread i see the word roll mentioned and that pretty much defines who not only the best young player is but the best players period. With the money being paid out in pool all young players eventually have to face the reality of not being able to make a living from it or they have to...

Because of competing events , anyone can stage a pool event . This organization would have to pay far and above others to hold players to keep them from defecting to another event/tour.

Thx , i never noticed because i don't play it much , then it makes the game to predictable , in my opinion. If they allowed second ball break it would change that , don't like money ball in predictable location .

Somebody posted a YouTube video of a match between Efren and Fong Pang Chau playing 10 ball using a template rack , don't know if it was Magic Rack brand . I watched about 5 or six racks with both breaking and the 10 ball moved very little or none and was still inside the template , doesn't...

With the cost of hotels , lugging equipment around , gasoline etc. , i don't see Tor making a whole lot of money off this , must be a labor of love in there a little , maybe a pot of aluminum cans to recycle at the end of the rainbow .Tor should check in with the gate keepers of the pool world...

Nice story. Bet it had a decent impact on Pat Diveney's economy too .

He plays good defense .

My condolences to you and your family , sorry to hear of your loss . Bet it is rough ,

Like to see some domestic production cue makers offer some cues with metal butt caps , and please keep your logos off the shaft . Simple stains or paints without blues , green and red paints on your bottom end cues to discourage people from buying them.

Condolences Ray , God bless you and your family.
