Actually straight pool is my favorite game which nudges itself to first place ever so slightly past one pocket. But, on any given day that scale could tilt one way or the other depending on my mood, focus, desire to play, and endurance. After that, I suppose I'd rather choose to play a long...

With all due respect I don't really think that 8 ball scenario can even remotely be compared to this situation. Perhaps in the 8 ball game if the player shot at his ball and thought it were pocketed when it wasn't and then continued shooting, that would be more of a comparison. Here are my...

One pocket is the antithesis of nine ball. One pocket is infinitely creative while nine ball is infinitely redundant. No wonder you have begun to feel the addiction of one pocket. :thumbup:

You may not win a in court but ... on the other hand, this would be a civil action and I think with a halfway smart lawyer, you could easily articulate that this is a custom cue maker that a premium is paid for in order to obtain one off designs. More difficult might be proving your design was...

11 + pages of posts and I'll be honest, all I did was read the OP's post. and this is my reply. Who knows how this thread morphed in 11 pages ... no matter this is in response to the first post. Stop posting pool videos huh? I don't post them, but they are instructive and entertaining to...

Great, now if you can extend that mindset to all of life, you'll know how Obama gets by.

A players put up 15 bucks, B players put up 10 bucks, and C players put up 5 bucks. Play even or go get some bowling shoes ... :thumbup:

Arrogant? Barack is that you?

What Patrick has referenced is a legitimate way to estimate a bank shot. These things don't come automatically to all players, and anything that helps establish feeling angles better is always helpful to share. I have always called this the ghost table system. useful actually in some pool...

Thanks. So, in my case ... I go to Xfinity.com, log onto my account ... and then what, do a search for espn3 in the website's search bar?

Forgive my ignorance regarding espn 3. I'm not much on sports, or 9 ball for that matter, so I've never even looked into espn 3. I always figured it was just another TV channel that certain cable TV services offered. It seemed logical that not all cable TV services would offer every channel...

When you get to a certain age, the future of anything looks grim.

The real issue isn't your laptop. The real issue is lazy inconsiderate posters who won't take less than one minute to resize their photos before they post them. That right, you know who you are. Half the damned posted graphics won't fit on a 23 inch monitor nevermind a laptop. Ita annoying...

You may have seen this video before but think about this if you watch it. Suppose you were a salesman .... in any business, not necessarily raw cue material sales. You have to call on your clients periodically and take orders from them as they need more materials. Your profit depends on...

Don't knock him ... he makes a hell of a stir fry too! :D

Absolutely! I've been playing and loving this game for 55 years. Owned a room, and must have shot with 100 different cues. The patrons all wanted me to try their "new cues". I always say, cue collecting for the skill, craftsmanship, meticulous attention to detail, and the sheer beauty of...

LMAO ... this is the same cue I play with. I had to do some taper work to the shafts, and change the tips ... but it plays great. Same cue ... but .... umm ... I paid 79 dollars for it new ... with two shafts and joint protectors and free shipping. Who knew it would appreciate in value...

Books are great, but I totally agree with this. No better way to learn than watching video matches. If you really want to get better, search up all the accu-stats videos with Bill Incardona commentating. I personally enjoy the ones with Danny D. along side but ... Grady is great as well...

No, impact throw occurs between the CB and the OB. Deflection occurs between the CB and cue stick.

Thanks Mike. I asked a lawyer friend of mine about this... LOL, he said, short of doing it the right way, the best option is to disclose your invention to a large reputable company after sending a sealed certified mailing to both the company and yourself describing it as well as the initial...
