    Captains and Co-Captains what would you do

    That would depend on the structure that is required. I have seen thing go well and I have also seen the other end of the spectrum. IF, and I mean IF, I were to run my own league it would have to be a players league. Players would make all the important decisions during the league meeting held...

    Corey's done it again, this time with 8b.

    I consistently use the same pattern of racking. I do this out of habit. Does that mean that I am cheating because I always use the same pattern? I rack according to the rules of eight ball in the center and one of each in the bottom corners. The other balls aren't placed at random because...

    How Would You Play This? 2/20/2014

    This response depends on whether or not you are playing for money. If this game is just for kicks you can play high right and go 3 rails for easy shape.

    Valley vs Diamond Bar Box 8-Ball

    As long as the table plays as it SHOULD, i don't really care about the name brand. In my experience a bar that has Diamond tables generally take better care of them. Valley tables are normally leased and maintained by the lessor which tends to be sketchy at best. As with most other things...

    Rooms in Sheridan, Arkansas?

    The closest good place would probably be in Little Rock. I can't remember the name off the top of my head though

    Teaching a Newbie to stay down

    Not a coach, but I would think that he needs to focus on it himself. Shoot easy shots with him focusing on staying down. 100 reps per day should put it into muscle memory. Tell him to just be comfortable but to focus on good form. Choose an easy shot so he doesn't get frustrated at missing...

    Bottling it

    Those 1 game matches are a beast. If I seem to be missing shots that I normally make with consistency, I try to play through it. Hard to do in a one game format, but you need to shoot the shots the way you are supposed to. Don't take short cuts, or second guess yourself, it will hurt you in...

    Is pool an addiction?

    I think anyone who loves the game is kind of addicted. I tend to get anxious feelings when I have free time and do not get to play. It normally gets progressively worse the longer I go without being able to at least be around it. Oh and don't let me miss a local tournament, TV time with the...

    An Idea for a New League

    You have certainly put in a lot of thought. It seems to blend several of the current league formats into one. Personally I wouldn't play it as you are not required to call shots, you can be forced to shoot at anytime, there aren't requirements for any balls to hit any rails at any time, and...

    How and where did you first start playing

    Started playing casual stuff when I was 14. Local town didn't have drinking so bar rooms were unheard of. The local cafe was the only place with a table so that is where everyone hung out. I spent a lot of time playing against everyone there taking my lumps. The a funny thing happened, I did...
