    Predator P3 Question

    well it does not play dramatically different...it's bigger...but since I played with teh same top (314-2) as before, it was not really a radical change. The possibility to alter the weight was kind of what tipped me over....and since this one was used I could get it for a nice price. If I was to...

    Predator P3 Question

    how do you mean? I have one...I am not 100% happy with the wrap otherwise the cue is typical Predator ....solid....I have 314-2 with Kamui Black SS on it....was actually planning to buy a Mezz but got a really good price on this one (used) and since I had played with 5k1 before, it was not...

    A new rule?

    Voted No....why...because the current rules should be enough to deal with it.

    USA, all the way?

    ! Why are Europeans moving to US to play? Because let's face it...there are very few players in the world that can truly live off the tournament-winnings and even those can not count on making enough all the time. What US has in addition to some decent paying tournaments, is the gambling...

    TAR Top Female in the World vs Bartum

    like you, I do not know Chen but I know Jasmin enough that she would be a handful to any and all men in tournament-format. The thing is that race to 100 has nothing to do with tournament-format and as such her skills have not been tested yet. The potential is there however...

    Excuses for loss

    I played a tournament of 9b race to 6... I was playing bad in the beginning and did something that I probably should NOT have done. I was down 5-0 when I basically gave up in my head and started playing quite fast....I play normally fairly fast, around 10 seconds per shot....but now I was just...

    thx to my coach Ratta

    I can vouch for Ratta as well...Due to a number of non-pool related cirqumstances we stopped working together a while back which was unfortunate. However, after my move is complete and I am comfortable in my new house and find a little time again for pool....we WILL pick it up again! Promise my...

    9 ball rule question

    I believe if the guy broke and missed the cueball mostly and it starts rolling....it will be only a foul if it makes it past the headstring. If he catches it BEFORE it crosses the headstring....it is not considered a breakshot yet. If I remember right, for a breakshot the cueball must be hit...

    Legal shot?

    the object ball has to move after which one ball has to touch a cushion for it to be a legal shot. Many do not know though that when the cueball and targetball are touching, you are allowed and it is possible to make a completely legal shot shooting the cueball towards teh targetball making the...

    soft tips.....am I alone?

    Kamui Black SS for me....but it feels harder than my previous Sniper.... I am not unhappy with the SS but when it is time, I will most likely go back to Sniper.

    Mosconi Cup Updates

    liked the way JA put it in the post-game interview "yeah I played well" and then corrected himself 10sec later "I pocketed balls well" :) It looks like his positional play was all over the place and his pocketing abilities bailed him out a few times. Perhaps nerves got the better of Daz as well...

    Magic Rack

    nope...just the two balls in the second row head straight towards the side-pockets....break from the middle then it is just speed-control...as a matter of fact, some tournaments have already stated break-boxes...middle for 9-ball and on the cushion to first diamond (roughly) on either side for...

    Magic Rack

    use MBR....9 on the spot and use breakbox with 4 balls in pocket or in kitchen...I know it is a lot of "extra" rules but only way to really get same breaking-conditions for both players... hell...let us turn the 9b rack other way....you have to break by playing your cue ball to the bottom...

    Foul on all balls

    I have had perhaps 10-15 times over the past 10 years discussions about a legality of a shot. Actually when I KNOW this is going to be dicey shot (which ball am I going to hit first, touche-possibility or anything like that), I call the opponent to come and see, kinda to pre-empt the possibility...

    Foul on all balls

    I have played either league or tournaments in Finland, Germany and Holland and never seen anything but 'all ball fouls' in any of the tournaments I have played...

    Guess he could give you the six and out in a fight

    his stance is not half bad...not even the pool-stance....and playing straight pool as well...I am impressed! :)
