    Dennis Orcullo banned from USA for five years

    No victim, no crime! Add these immigration woes of Mr. Orcollo to the expansive list of reasons why I support dissolution and dismantling of government in its entirety.

    People bitching about 7’ tables

    I far and away prefer to play 1p... I have no interest in a 7', but I guess I'm ruining pool! Whatever.

    RIP Scott Lee

    My lesson with Scott was long enough ago that I have an 8mm video tape of it. He was a big help to me and an asset to the pool World as a whole. Rest in Peace, Scott!

    brunswicks and diamonds

    I guess that makes you my tormentor, Glenn! First I have ever tried snooker and it's tough! I'm going to try the 3c table out one of these days too.... I am stoked at the equipment in Brother's and know they are thrilled with your work.

    Brothers Billiards, new kind of pool room.

    Well, today was a fine AZbilliards day for me... I got to play in the new hall in Billings and it's fantastic. I met a player that was new to 1p and we dabbed them around a bit, been too long playing by myself in the basement. I played okish, but the room, equipment, and atmosphere are top...

    Brothers Billiards, new kind of pool room.

    I had the opportunity to meet the owner of Brother's Billiards today, got a tour and rundown on policy and prices, and bought my membership. I was pressed for time in the big city and didn't get to play any, but the place looks great. Beautiful equipment and an active and involved owner...

    Old 8 ball rules

    In high school I volunteered at the State veteran's home and that was among my first opportunities to play. The eight ball variation I remember playing had the one and fifteen balls racked behind the eight and each had to go in the opposite side pocket from where it was racked. The eight then...

    Brothers Billiards, new kind of pool room.

    Table dimensions? Don't care. Not enough of one type over another? Don't care. This is Montana and there are too damned few places to play now. I will encourage, support, and frequent as much as I can any attempt at a pool hall or bar with good equipment. I will check out Brothers in the...

    Brothers Billiards, new kind of pool room.

    I started going at five points when I first got to the area, then QII (which is the current now), and even went to the one at Waterside a time or two. Towards the end of my time, I was at the Virginia Beach Q three to five nights a week.

    Brothers Billiards, new kind of pool room.

    I miss exactly three things from my time in Tidewater, Va.... Friends, Q-masters, and Wawa gas stations. I left Virginia in 2009, been back to visit just once, but that pool hall will always be a favorite place of mine. I'm not handing any crown, more likely, I'm holding a higher expectation...

    Brothers Billiards, new kind of pool room.

    I think this region (I'm forty some miles from Brothers Billiards) is very short on places to play currently and I can't wait until they're open. I visited with an owner on fb and the out of towner rate for people like me is $125 one-time and $25 a month after or a day rate of $20 (day rate...

    Dynasphere Bronze balls......$100

    It was, Boxcar. It was I moved to Tidewater in June of 1995 and left in January of 2009. I did get to the original Q-Masters at five points (the one at Waterside too) and still think of the current one as QII sometimes. It still tops my most missed spots from my time back East, though...

    Dynasphere Bronze balls......$100

    I remember there being movie in with that in the title in 1980's, "St. Elmo's Fire", but that's the extent of what I know there. Why?

    Dynasphere Bronze balls......$100

    I bought (localish billiard store) and played with a set of the bronze today with nary a compliant. I'd call them a bargain at a bill!
