    A new web series based on pool league - 8 for Vegas

    A realistic view of "banger pool!" WOW!!! I just watch the first episode. This show is portraying (IMHO) a pretty realistic view of how most folks in the APA, view the sport of pool in general. Boy, is this series gonna paint a picture (to the general public) of how the grass roots APA...

    Great match, SVB vs. Marco Tschudi (2010)

    Thanks! I knew when I saw that table it was not a Diamond. Thing is, sure looked like the ball traveled along the surface the same, and the banks, well, that's always tough to get a feel for in a video. I do like the look though, and I guess that Swiss company obviously did too! Thanks so...

    What is the Best chalk?

    edge to edge=potential slip! When a player goes to any edge of the cue-ball, there's always a potential for a miscue. How hard the tip is, along with the evenness of the chalk spread on that tip, (the type of chalk comes into play here) give "traction to the tip" on the cue-ball, helping to...

    Great match, SVB vs. Marco Tschudi (2010)

    Table??? Looks like the table manufacturer is into "the Diamond look!" Wonder if it plays like a Diamond, too? Who did make that table, anyway?:scratchhead: p.s. Check out (from the over-head camera) the plastic, "inlay routed-in" drop pockets on that copy!

    What is the Best chalk?

    Miscue's??? In pool, is there "Anything" more disquieting than miscue's while at the table? Those moments can make your mind "fearfully disposed to avoiding drawing the ball!" I gave a group lesson last night on a beautiful "Black, 9', Olhausen table. The balls were the Olhausen version of...

    Best 8 Ball book?

    "The Schwartz book on 8-ball" The book path is always good and the Schwartz book is excellent, however, the best path (imo) is always to watch the worlds best players play IN A TOURNAMENT SITUATION WITH COMMENTARY! The ACCU-STATS, round robin 8-ball invitational series, viewed complete, can...

    The violation of "The Lacey Act"

    "As I understand it." Originally, back somewhere after WW1, Gibson negotiated a contract with the government officials in Madagascar, to export exclusively to them, all of their Ebony. That meant most of the cue-point woods were coming from this importer. Gibson was directly the primary...

    The violation of "The Lacey Act"

    This is NO JOKE, if you like Ebony points or Rosewood or Ebony anywhere in your cue, this Law "DOES" pertain to you! In effect, if you have either of these woods in your cue, today, and you go across an International border, your cue can be confiscated and you could be placed in detention in a...

    gibson guitars raided,cue makers next ?

    "What NEXT???" ...having worked for this company through the 90's, I happen to be familiar with some of the tid-bits surrounding the Madagascar connection for Ebony and Rosewood. It was negotiated at the close of WW1, with a direct connection to the indigenous ruling parties there, (not the...

    DiLiberto and Souquet Elected to HOF!

    A "real" PLAYER gets in!! Congratulations to both of these great and deserving players, and in DiLiberto's case, the election is in a new category, the Greatest Player wing! Danny is the first inductee in this category, (IMHO) an excellent choice for their first inductee under that title...

    ABP or Barry Behrman: Which Side of the Fence Are You On?

    "Character???" Is this subject, "ever," going to be resolved? In the end, one has to doubt that this is anything more than "a tempest in a tea cup!" The players have expressed valid points for their "collective opinions,"(IMHO). However, is there any possible way, they could have found their...

    Good Advice! ......"roll with the punches," that's what Justin is suggesting here, and that seems like good and very practical advice in this situation! To boot, Justin's backed up the advice he's offering here, "DOING" exactly what he's described as a good solution to this problem. People who...
