We have a 10x5 table and I have found 2" balls much better than 2 1/16. We ordered a set from Thurstons in England

If you are looking for some local competition I'd love to get together. Consistent 30-40 break maker. Had one century on a 10 x 5 table this year. E-mail me: mrdaeth_AT_mailaaa.com

I've played a lot of competitive snooker over the years and now live in the US and own a 10ft snooker table. I agree, there is a HUGE difference in 1/16 of an inch. We have 2 1/8 pool balls and they are way too big. Balls bounce off the rails because the cushions are too low. The table came...

How's the table coming? Need any help? I'm excited about the opportunity to play some.

My two cents... hire a professional billiard company to take it down, pack it, move it, and set it up again for you. It may cost a little more but it will be worth every penny if they do it right.

Let me know when the table is assembled and ready for play. I'd love to come visit.

100% agree with Phil. Not sure if I'm a "Fanatic" but I brush, damp cloth, and iron our table about once a week. You have to know what you are doing so you don't burn the cloth.

I have found a couple of players and arranged practice sessions, both home and away. Anyone else interested in joining in and either teaching or learning how to play? The more people we have of different standards, the better we can learn from each other. Maybe Allison Fisher will read this post...

Hey, Brian isn't it? Great to hear from you. You know you are welcome anytime. I'm always looking for new people to play. Loving the table although we need you to come back and recloth. I have your number and will call you in the next few days. Do you have a buyer for the table or are you...

Also, the cue matters. Make sure you get a snooker cue with 10mm tip or smaller and brass ferrile. Don't worry about name brands or being hand-spliced vs. machine spliced. Just order one online, practice and have fun.

We have a 10x5 table and I have experimented with several different ball sizes. In my lowly opinion, 2 1/8" balls are definitely to large and they don't bounce properly as the rails are too low. 2 1/16" are a little too big with 15 reds because the area around the black spot is too congested. I...

If you are ever in the area, let me know. I'd love to play a few frames. We have a 10x5 table (wish we had room for a full-size) and we play 15 reds. I have a set of 2 1/16 balls but we normally play with 2" because it gives a little more room around the black. I grew up playing with John...
