my method has alaways worked for me, first i try to be polite. i say i am not interested in playing for money or fun right now (if i'm not, if i am then it's different and i'll go from there). if they want to instruct i tell them i am trying to work on something specific but thanks anyway. if...

any one who offers me info, i will take it. i'll try it and if it works for me i'll keep it and use it. i used to try to do the same thing for others that asked me for help. but far to many people simply don't want to work. i can draw a ball pretty well. i always have a beginner or two ask how i...

+1 on this. i have played with everything from and 18.5 joss to my current player, a dick neighbors custom. the joss was a well made and beautiful cue but it never felt good to me. my custom was ordered to be 20.5 but it came out to be 21.5 (a purpleheart handle had to be used when the original...

i can't stand playing games "for practice". especially if it's the first thing i do when i get to the room. i like to take at least 10 or 20 minutes worth of shots and see where i am. if i am off i have a few things i have that let me work on straightening out my stoke or speed or checking my...

for me it doesn't matter in the least. the tip is more important. a good well shaped and chalked tip goes a lot farther than a high dollar cue. i have a players break cue i spent $20 on and a dick neighbors shooter i spent considerably more on. i have broke and run racks with both. i spent the...

because i had the money. and i wanted a custom.

seriously, has the trolling here gotten to the level of, "i'm going to put the most troll assed thread i can think of up and then try to act seriously shocked that people are making fun of it"? i'll tell ya what christrollbanks, i'll bite and respond "seriously" to your question. 1. why is this...

yeah that's why i threw in the atlanta part. i mean we've got everything from pro's like johnny archer, kim davenport, and sean putnam over at marietta billiard club. form there you can look to the a level players like paul song, jeff crawford, jeff hooks, clay fisher, david cantrell and whole...

tell him stfu or gtfo. the tournaments i have played in only the players in the match or person running the tournament have a say in the match not the bevy of local gomers watching the match. and if you're calling foul on me it had better be when i foul not a year and a half later.

georgia has quite a few and the atlanta area has a bunch of good rooms. just throwing my 2 cents in

how can a patch really be junk? it's an embroidered piece of cloth. my company makes them for some of our customers. the kind that are supposed to able to be ironed on usually have weak glue that will not hold up to washing, but it is usually recomended to sew them on to the item they are...

j powell thanks for posting those. i walk away from the videos and this thread with a couple of thoughts. the first is i think the dump was horrible. mike din't play horribly but should have been beat flat. buddy missing that combo makes my stomach churn. for me this was definately a point that...

definately not me. i don't even know that room.

woof, thanks for the info. i have a freind whose band plays at top hat once in a while (i think that's where steeve said they were playing) so i need to make the trip up to your neck of the woods at least a few times. i'll let you know via pm when i'm heading up and if you can make it that would...

no doc, like i said i don't have much to lose so i don't i don't gamble often. stealing was a strong word to use but that's how i feel if i'm offered a game that i know i should win. not that i will win becasue anything can and does happen, but if i know a spot is out of line i won't take it...

so i have been exiled back to south florida for a few months due to some personal stuff and i haven't been here for a few years. i'm in the plantation area and i'm looking for any small weekly tournaments or decent places to play in broward / north dade / south palm beach counties. right now the...

it's not rude. if you play in leagues you know the deal. everyone has to take a bite of the shit sandwich. if you're above it then don't play league pool. pretty simple.

only speaking for me. i don't gamble much because i am fairly broke. so when i do it's only with people i know. so if i know you and you know me and we both know i need something to make it competitive i don't see the problem asking for something we both know would be in line. i would never ask...

a few things i've picked up alng the way. first, a phenolic tip isn't required to break or jump well. the samsara jump/break tip or other simillar tips buy other companies break and jump very well. the tip steve lomax uses on his jump cues aren't phenolic and you can't really find a person who...
