    Economic situation and rising gas prices changed your play?

    It's interesting to see how gas prices have affected so many people. I know that the rise in gas prices has affected my game as well. The closest pool hall to me is 60 miles away (1hour 15 minutes speeding(traffic)). This pool hall only has 4 tables and little to no action. The next closest...

    Lessons from Danny Diliberto...

    Incidentally, Danny only ran 200 balls the day he bowled a 300 game. That's ridiculous enough aint it? If you go to www.dannydiliberto.com and scroll to the bottom it says... 1981 Bowled 300 game and ran 308 balls in straight pool on the same day

    Lessons from Danny Diliberto...

    I would consider Danny to be one of the best all around athletes of all time. Name me another guy who has bowled a 300 and ran over 300 balls in straight pool in the same day. Doing either one of those things in a lifetime is a major accomplishment let alone both in a day. MD

    Coth: Simonis VS. ???

    I recently installed championship tour edition on a table that I sold. I played a few games and it is fast and very similar to simonis. I believe the difference is the thread count per inch. Regardless, it played very nice and much like simonis. I would recommend it on home tables where it...

    Turning Stone Classic XI - $25,000 ADDED - Verona, NY - August 14-17, 2008

    I've been to a couple of the turning stone events. I noticed that there weren't as many vendors at the last event. Is there any information on the vendors going yet? Before the last event there was a thread that talked about who was already registered. Will there be another list, and when...

    Seems trendy - Let's raffle a table! 9' Diamond Professional!

    I'm glad that you love playing pool. It kinda makes me laugh to hear your post though. The closest pool hall to me is over 60 miles away and only consists of 4 beat up tables. The next closest pool hall is near 150 miles away, still no diamonds.

    Who's the best cueist..?

    On given days, any one of the players noted could be considered the best. My concern is when I skimmed down the list, I didn't see Archers name. It startled me and I had to look twice. I understand that he might not be the player he once was, but I still think that he belongs on the list. He...

    Now heres what I'm talking about. Comparisons that mean something instead of undefined answers. I would like to know as well what a 125 in straight pool is compared to golf. Great question.

    Is pool or golf tougher??

    When comparing the difficulty of two different sports, I think you must understand that there needs to be some kind of comparison AND test. In order to know which is more difficult, I would take a group of people who have never played either sport, and then set a goal for both pool and golf...

    Do you own more than one table?

    I have a 8 foot table in my basement and I am in the process of adding a 16x22 room on the back of my house. I'm debating on keeping the 8footer in the basement or getting rid of it. I think it would be a good table for kids to play on while saving the 9 footer for advanced players...

    2008 AZ Straight Pool Challenge!

    New High Run *56* Just finished playing straight pool and ran 56. It's my new high run after running 53 twice earlier this year. I bobbled an easy nearly straight in 57 trying to get into the stack. I tried cheating the pocket and forcing the cue ball up into the pack and the pocket spit it...
