I would think that ebony would add too much weight to the front end thus eliminating any of the characteristics that and OB shaft is supposed to be well known for? dave

I would assume that the thicker carpet would result in less energy transfer from your table........to your floor...........to your feet. So you wouldn't be getting any feeback to your toes. The best choice for carpet material would be purpleheart, Bacote, some like stainless steel, and if ya...

Ideally, if you watch and pay close attention to higher level players as well as pros, because using outside English on a cut shot is almost considered a given, patterns are generally played in a way that allows a player to use outside on most cuts. Generally speaking, using inside English on a...

Tagalog is primarily the national language. Watching Gomez choke on the hill-hill game ball, pretty straight shot with a good amount of green, was encouraging in the sense that now I know I can play like the pros!! dave

Payment sent Payment sent................now gimmie gimmie gimmie some o dat chocolate wid a whole lotta shugga!! dave

That 10ball that Gomez chocked on reminds me of myself. For me at least, a nightmare shot for the game hill hill. Still don't know why he chose to go two cushions around the 10 and then way over, instead of one cushion striaght up the middle of the table. Even Mika questioned him after the...

Just my opinion as a looker. I have always been curious as to one day possibly owning an Omega DPK, so when this cue first posted it initially caught my eye. However, after much thought, although I wasn't in a position to purchase it, if I were in a position to buy it, I probably wouldn't have...

Free bump for what I consider the best production cue made.

Ok, call me stupid, outta the loop, uninformed, oblivious to the world of pool. WHO THE HELL IS OMGWTF? Pro player? Good amateur? Banger? Well known money player? Billiards enthusiast? dave

The other guy said it perfectly. If you have a tip right now that is not comfortable because it's worn down, then you know that you won't become comfortable with it over time. At least with a new tip, you know that if it doesn't feel good right away, it's nothing that a two hour session won't...

In my opinion, the smartes move he has made all these years was remaining in the Philippines. A player, and national hero of his nature would be tempted to settle overseas somewhere, but he's stayed home, and a 'home' he gets alot more bang for his buck. dave

21 through 24 please dave

I remember the first time I ever saw pro speed up close was when I drew Tomoki Mekari in a pro-am. I was still only about a year into my game, and thinking I was progressing well. He ran rack after rack, and thinking back now, he was really cool in the sense that he played me (the table) hard...

Contrats Chris on your new toy. Don't know why, but had a really good feelin' about this auction, but I guess it wasn't meant to be. Gotta find another way to get my sugar I guess. GoTulane, kudos for a well run raffle. This was my first, and it was quick, professional, and exciting. First...

You're right, he's doubled his investment, but what I'm talking about is how almost all forms of gambling have something to do with you getting a chance to wind a greater return than your initial investment. $5 lottery tickets for a chance at $20,000, $20 bet in pocker for a chance to win the...

When I had money, I too would play anybody............and straight up. Pros, shortstops, whatever. I wanted to see how I stacked up against their games, and putting forth a little bit of money to make it worth their time is only common courtesy. But still that's not gambling, it's pretty much...

I still think that Gambling is definded at an attempt to beat the odds in order to take turn a small investment into a large return. Relate that to pool, it would have to like one guy betting $20 against the chance of winning more than his/her original $20. So when you have two guys putting up...

The first and most important part of position play is accurately knowing where the CB will go naturally. Then it's about knowing how to change it's natural course, and developing the skill to make it happen. But back to the 'knowing' part. Always pay attention the where the CB makes first rail...

I had wondered the last couple of years that I lived in Japan where tats among even the Japanese youth were gaining popularity. Remember the old rules where 'onsen' and 'sento' wouldn't allow those with tats inside because at the time it was usually considered to have something to do with the...
