    SJM Sizes Up 2024 in Pro Pool

    Great year in review. I'd give Gorst/Kaci the match of the year. Hill-hill with $150k on the line. It makes Fedor's position on the 2 that much more impressive. I 100% would have shit my pants... I think AJ Manas and Aloysius Yapp deserve a call out for improvement also.

    Which table is easier if you had to beat the ghost for $1 million?

    Those damn plastic pocket inserts... Hate those things so much...

    What do you do ..when putting in the work doesnt work?

    I had a hockey coach that told us "Practice makes permanent". Whether you're practicing good behaviour or poor, it'll stick with repetition. Focus on practicing good behaviour.

    New pool room: The Crooked Cue, Colorado Springs, CO

    This place looks awesome. Just a short 13.5 hour drive for me... :LOL: LOVE this on their site. Wish more places were stricter with table rules.

    What do you do ..when putting in the work doesnt work?

    As others have said: get coaching. First thing i do is analyze video of myself. GoPro footage has helped me with pool, bowling, my softball swing, and even my posture on my bikes. Seeing yourself can be a game changer. Another thing I like to do is scenario practice: I watch *loads* of pro...

    Carbon, back to wood...

    When i was in college ('09-'14) i was the first in that crowd to wear a glove (sweaty hands also). They made fun of me for it. Now it's rare to see players without. I've gone from Players maple > 314-2 > Z-3 > Revo and Cynergy. Switching back to wood is really strange. I prefer the hit of the...

    Pool and drink

    Yup. That stuff goes straight to my eyes. No chance.

    Which table is easier if you had to beat the ghost for $1 million?

    That would be a mess... Bits of human everywhere...

    Which table is easier if you had to beat the ghost for $1 million?

    I don't trust the plastic pockets on the GC and 9 ball on a bar box is like cheating.

    WPBA to organize Women's World 8-Ball Championships

    Did that while knocking out Jasmin (albeit not playing her best). I think if she keeps improving at this rate she'll be top 10 in a couple years. I know, i know; growth isn't linear. But she's going to be very good. I expect to see April there (MN represent!) and hope she plays well. Maybe all...

    Pool in Europe vs USA: 7-foot vs 9-foot tables

    Oh, I prefer drop pockets. I meant i didn't really like the really rounded rails, but liked the table having buckets. Yeah, they are absolutely enormous. Love tables with small pockets and giant buckets.

    Pool in Europe vs USA: 7-foot vs 9-foot tables

    This discussion actually pushed me to finally get there. This count is about right. They have Gabriel's 9' tables, which I have never played before. The rail shape was a little odd and it wasn't very clean, but DROP POCKETS!!! I'd ask for their pro cut table if I go back. I'd put Two Stooges...

    Is their a difference in revo shafts

    Did you end up trying the 30" 12.9 for breaking? I prefer 30" shafts and was considering that as an option. Wish they'd just do a 30" BK...

    Are Jump Cues Worth It

    My "coach" in college used to yell at me for leaning on my jump cue too much. He'd occasionally smack me on my way to it when we were playing matches. Especially if there was an obvious kick. After college i neglected the jump cue for years (was mostly playing bar pool) and struggle with it now...

    Pool in Europe vs USA: 7-foot vs 9-foot tables

    There's one in Fridley now also (Two Stooges). Haven't been there yet, but I've heard good things. They have 7 and 9 footers (don't know the counts and they aren't on the website).

    Attn fatboy... think they figured out they made a mistake? ;)

    Then we can play Fatboy with the Purple 4-5-12-13 to really fuck with him... :ROFLMAO:

    Pool in Europe vs USA: 7-foot vs 9-foot tables

    Most of them play on 9s at Shooters. Not sure about what they do outside of there. I had a few ask me to play for $$$, but since i won't most of them won't give me the time of day.

    Pool in Europe vs USA: 7-foot vs 9-foot tables

    Kind of mind blowing that the only 9-foot tournaments in MN/WI reporting to FR are the Mon/Wed 9-ball at Shooters. We've been seeing many of the existing 9s being replaced by 7s recently also. Had a discussion with Jimmy (Jimmy's Pro Billiards in north Minneapolis) and he was considering going...
