    I guess Earl got his wish!

    Earl came with a lot of strong shots in the comeback. One I remember...dead straight to the corner down at the head of table short cushion. Jacked up a bit and pounded it, and spun down table off the long rail for great position for Shane. A real missable shot. Mighty fine shot.

    World Cup of Pool 2014(Portsmouth, UK) 23-28Sep (9ball Scotch Doubles) Winner $60K

    Hahabar popups are hard to kill. Even then, "X"ing them sets off my Norton and Malwarbytes warning systems.

    World Cup of Pool 2014(Portsmouth, UK) 23-28Sep (9ball Scotch Doubles) Winner $60K

    Finland got a few rolls at the end. Blondie banks the 1, and misses, bumps the 7 out, 1 lands behind the 7. 7 shuts off 1 rail kick lane. Dennis missed a tough finesse jump. Blondie leaves Mika wrong side of 6. Mika tries to 2 rail cb deep into corner to catch short on 3rd long rail to get on...

    How Would You Run These Balls?

    We've seen what a straight shooting, offensive minded young CJ shot. WWYD? means what would 'I' do. As stated I bank it but plan on being short. I stiffen it with inside, and hit it with the speed to go the second time. To me, I can make a full swing effort at the bank at a controllable...

    World Cup of Pool set for LIVE US airing on ESPN

    If already discussed...sorry, I missed it. Why does England have two teams? Because they host the event?

    How Would You Run These Balls?

    I like that too. Play it short with inside. Stop the cb, hit the bank at the speed to go '2 times'. Matt and Macguy suggest the same thing. A two way shot. Good if it goes. Good if it doesn't', unless you hang it. It lays just wide of a 2:1 ratio...looks real possible.

    Shane and Earl up at World Cup of Pool

    Maybe make it the 3rd diamond in the kitchen; discourages soft break but allows a bit more room for up table balls. Seems a tradeoff: w/9 on the spot, cut breaking, often get 1 in the side, but not huge travel from other balls. They seem to wack each other and stay down table nearer the spot...

    Opponent's shot clock?

    Admittedly, I play at a deliberate pace, walk around the table, visualize cb tracks, plot 2 ways shots, cluster breakouts, etc...stuf like that. On the slow side, but not sharky slooooooooowww. The actual shot doesn't take long. ..... I was playing a guy yesterday, that seemed in a hurry to...

    During out league...

    Sometimes, that is not enough. One league match, giving the 8, the opponent slopped in the 7 and went into a happy dance. He and his team, absent his captain..who was over talking to the league director about something, were celebrating. He came over and offered his hand, I shook and said...

    During out league...

    That's funny. Somebody on their team lost....maybe they can pick who it was. Your player knew who he was playing..but opponent didn't know. ...don't the captains identify the players in the next game? ...I can see this happening with rack your own. ...kind of weird, but kind of funny. Did...

    Greatest Trick Shots Ever by Jeff Gates

    This is great. I like the trick shots like these, where the stroke and set up is key. Not a big fan of the 'props' shots (except for 'the boot'). I really like the delayed timing of balls to the corners, that allow others to clear. That had to be tough to work out. Thanks for posting...very...

    Pool game called Golf?????

    Quality of the game experience is very much dependent on the group playing. Chances of winning or not selling out and paying double is VERY dependent on who you follow, and their understanding of the game/or how much they like/dislike you.:( Games can go for 3-5 hours with 5-7 players. It...
