    George Brandt - Mosconi's Buddy - Cue & Cushion - Pennsylvania - Los Angeles

    "Smiley" (Ismael aka "Puente de San Francisco), his usual running partner was "Tuna." Tuna was pretty small, but had a massive 9-Ball Break.

    Johnnyt RIP

    John was a good guy. He showed me some financial support in the last US Open 9-Ball Championships I played in (2008). An extremely valuable forums member. A big loss. R.I.P. John. My condolences to his friends and family.

    FS: 11pcs Onyx in Tin

    Jim, my apologies as I suspected folks could figure out for themselves the value of "x." Price is better than wholesale - can't publish. Bought a box I ended up not needing.

    Tiger Everest question

    Just scuff it as normal. It's a fiber pad that cuts/trims just fine with a sharp blade on your lathe.

    Greatest pool hall of all time

    I’d been there several times. Way too pretentious for my taste. Hollywood Billiards was better. For the era, nothing beats Hard Times of yore.

    Not sure about hardness (really similar), but the Sniper gives better feedback IMO - it may require a little more maintenance I think.
