Just who would sponsor pool in the US? I'm being serious. List some potential sponsors. It's mainly played in bars or pool halls. Billiards equipment and Billiards industry obviously. But who else? What demographic are pool players? Pros dressing well will not suddenly make sponsors think it's...

Even Shane says it's an advantage though. 🤷‍♂️

I see your point, but I think it's irrelevant. I also see you grasping at loose ends trying to solidify your point but in my opinion it's untenable. It appears you cannot have a discussion but simply discount anything you don't agree with. You think it looks amateurish. That's nice. I don't...

What's your point exactly? It doesn't matter if you think shorts are icky as you clutch your pearls. If the event had a different dress code he would have wore different clothes. If his sponsors cared they would have him wear different clothes. Shane went home with the money... meanwhile all the...

Looking forward to seeing what you came up with for the overhead!

So if you go to Applebees, do you wear a 3 piece suit? Shane was in compliance with the DRESS CODE at the event. If he wasn't, they would have made him change. It's happened to players at the DCC before. Nothing to see here, no violations, and Shane came home with the money. We could argue...

Hopefully this doesn't sound like I'm trying to gaslight you, it's not my intention, but I think you read the situation wrong. There were smiles and banter going on, it wasn't serious. I can see it being a touchy subject but as far as I can tell it didn't seem to be disparaging. It may seem a...

I saw nothing wrong with it. The outfit looked athletic. The shirt was a pool jersey, the shorts were longer cut, not baggy or super short. The baseball cap... I don't really care. Maybe the lights caused glare. Seriously this is silly. It's not like he was wearing a bath robe or something. DCC...

It wasn't said disparagingly, and in no way was it disrespectful to Shane. It was more of just a conversation, how it's almost like a super power. If you get a chance listen to/watch the podcast. It's pretty good if you're into pool. Again, it wasn't said serious or anything. I know my friends...

I watched this on Fedor's channel. I got a laugh at the title which included: | ABSOLUTE CLINIC | :ROFLMAO: Pool ain't fair at times, but the lag is pretty important!

Neat cue, most likely worth the $150. The tear out makes me wonder if it was from a hobbyist, like you wondered, or from some really cheap outfit that cared about speed over everything. But they used nice wood. It's kind of sad to see on such a nice piece of curly. Not that it would effect...

It might just be personalized, as in it's Michael's cue. Standard photos of joint and with the bumper removed are helpful for ID.

So let's say I don't like what I'm seeing at the table. I choose to push out. Am I now on one foul? If I'm on 1 foul, I can't push out again or does the push mean an automatic foul? It doesn't seem that difficult but without seeing the flow of the game, it's hard to actually grasp why it's...

I'd like to see a video of it played. Folks talk about it and try to explain the rules but without seeing it, it's kind of like learning a card game without playing it. We "young" folks need someone who knows the game to step up and film it. A phone has a camera that is good enough. A cheap...

It's not universal but it's not uncommon. Many will just figure it into the price.

I wonder: https://www.mediamatic.net/en/page/212071/fashionable-pee-cleaning-dyeing-and-tanning This talk of him burying them in the dirt and all.

That was my problem. The phenolic broke hard as hell, but any accidental deviation and I was miscuing. Too slippery. I know us serious players aren't supposed to miscue on break, but sometimes it can be hard to hit the microdot when adrenaline rears it's head. Muscles fire wrong or clench, raise...

9 Ball break: :ninja: I've never really mentioned it before because I didn't think it was something unique. I'd guess anyone who's toyed with the break has done it. You can tune your break and find good breaks by finding aim points in the rack. You can aim at balls, the spaces between...

https://www.homedepot.com/b/Hardware-Fasteners-Screws-Screw-Caps/N-5yc1vZc2an I'd probably use the ones that the screw goes in and the plastic covers the head. With nails you might have to use a hammer and a punch to set the nail.

I like a flatter break and jump tip too, probably a quarter radius. I was talking about actually completely flattening the round part and gluing a better tip onto it. Those cues have a 1 piece ferrule/tip and I'm not a big fan of the phenolic tip that it comes with. I just faced it off flat...
