    Congrats Mike Dechaine

    I have the exact opposite opinion. I've met MD and he was nothing but gracious, kind and humble. He even posed for a few pictures and we had a bit of small talk right BEFORE he played SVB in Las Vegas. My two daughters (ages 9 and 11) were THRILLED to meet him! He wasn't a shit head, in fact, he...

    What's the deal with pool players? A sport for angry and shitty people it seems

    I've never seen a person break a pool cue in person in my entire life. I've heard about it once though and that was in the 80's. Sure, I've seen people upset. Hell, I've been upset! You're in the wrong room, I think...

    Do you let up against friends?

    One of my friends is an ok player. He has a few issues that need to change if he wants to get better. I suggested using a closed bridge once (he always uses an open bridge) and he got all uppity on me… Now i destroy him every chance i get. F him.

    Aiming for pro within 5 years. Realistic?

    Just do it, do your best. Focus and prove everyone wrong. There's nothing wrong with setting a goal and trying to reach it.

    Is there that much difference in playability, cheap cue, high priced.

    Just find a cue you like, it really doesn't matter in my opinion. One of the best players I know, doesn't even own a cue. He uses a house cue. It's been said a million times~ It's the indian, not the arrow. I was buying an expensive cue and a guy I was with literally pulled a mop off the...

    Do you drink alcohol when playing?

    I've figured out that drinking and playing pool doesn't work for me at all. I have a table at my house and I play often. When I'm drinking, I'm useless. I don't see how people can drink while they play. On league night, I tend to nurse the same beer all evening. It's now confirmed. Drinking and...

    How Many Cues Are Too Many To Own????

    I wanna tell you about a friend of mine, Robert. He's a great player and has been for as long as i've known him. He doesn't even own a cue! He always uses a house cue when he goes to a bar or on league night. I've asked him "why don't you buy your own cue?" His answer makes sense, he says "Why...

    Question about fairly new cue makers.

    I'm impressed! You're quite eloquent and obviously smart. We just have different opinions on cues, obviously. :smile:

    Question about fairly new cue makers.

    Thanks, Dave, for that enlightening post. Brings to mind a particular very famous P.T. Barnum quote. But, that's my opinion. Marshall

    Question about fairly new cue makers.

    Those are PRODUCTION cues! :roll eyes: What everyone needs is a custom that HITS A TON and is the latest/greatest name around here. Production Cue is a dirty word around these parts... People buy a Sneaky Pete made by ___ _______ for HUGE amounts of ca$h? A Sneaky Pete? Are you on glue?

    Joe Rogan - Future Mosconi Potential???

    I love how everyone on here criticizes him. He's pretty good! I swear, people complain or ***** about anything around here. What happened to being supportive and friendly? F that, I suppose? ��

    Very proud poolplayer (father)

    My kids are obsessed with The Hustlers…we live in Las Vegas and they got to meet a few cast members this week! They love to play pool and have races to 5 daily….it's so much fun to watch them learn the game I love. My daughters also enjoy the Dr Cue clips on youtube. Good times!

    So - who here plays this game for the fun?

    I've played pool off and on my entire life. In my 20's, I hung out in a pool hall and had a blast! I was a mediocre player, I could hold my own. Fast forward to my late 40's- we bought a house and I got a man cave. A pool table was essential. It's fun for me. I can wager a bit, but it's mainly...
