👍I just meant that’s where he hangs out. I got the title of the sub forum wrong, it’s Talk to a mechanic

It appears it would be very easy to overtighten those screws, and strip the threads. I’m referring to the wood threads, tapped in to the back of the rails. Assuming that’s how it’s put together.

“Ask a mechanic” it’s a sub forum here

90% of the people that will see it, don’t play nine

Not necessarily, he could only be attempting the ones he’s 80% on.

No handicap system should make it 50/50. The less skilled need to have a chance, but not an equal one. How often does someone from the middle of the pack, make the money?

Everyone I know that shoots pool, and is under the age of sixty, would know. Lots of the people over 60 would also know. Where is there a group of pool players, that at least one of them, doesn’t have the app? It calculates for you.

When did that happen? A fairly short time ago, there were only three!

It’s crazy that you are getting so much flak on what is obviously a great idea! You get to play for real. He sees that and learns what is possible. On his trip, he gets to shoot more than once or twice. He is also learning how to get on the next ball, without paying the death penalty, for every...

Ask around and find a good table mechanic in your area. Someone with a good reputation. Not just a table mover or dealer, someone that knows what they are doing. Tell him what you need. He will either already have it, or know where to get it. Tell him where it’s going and that you will provide...

It’s speed control! It’s all about speed control. Can you back cut that ball into the upper right corner, with a bunch of low left? Yes, you can, if you fire at it. You can’t do it at the correct speed, to land on your next shot. That’s the difference between the bad and the good, the good and...

As a 400 fargo, I don’t think you will benefit from anything other than hands on instruction. One or two short sessions per week. Working on one skill only. Mastering that, then moving on to the next. A week at SVBs’ basement, would be nice, but how much would stick? If you are really good at...

IIRC, it was reported in this forum, that the commercial looms were damaged beyond repair, during the flood. They were replaced with new machines, and the cloth is not quite the same.

Wow, if that number is accurate, it really puts a few things in perspective.

Sadly🤨the above is correct

Round robin, race to one, no assholes, enough tables so no waiting. Lots of interaction and lots of pool. I’m starting to hate the big weekend events, way too much downtime.

Turns out they are oversized slate, the rails bolt down. Not like any Valley ever made. Website says they weigh 670 lbs.

A legit 590 could work at staying there. A 600+, dumping to go down, and then entering one of these tournaments, would stick out like crazy.

Nothing is impossible. That doesn’t mean it’s actually happening. The winners of these high dollar capped tournaments are heavily scrutinized. AFAIK, they have all been legit. If someone manages to pull this scam off, I bet Mike Page knows immediately.

Do you have an opinion on the new valley?
