    An interview with Emily

    You are vastly underestimating Emily. She probably knows more about the game of pool then you do. She has a job to do. If you think you can do better, apply for her job. I'm sure your vast marketing skills will make it an easy task. Matchroom will be falling over backwards to back you with...

    BAR RULES and DIRTY POOL – Why Official Rules are Important

    Not quite. In my area you have choice after the break no matter how many of each go in. Two solids and one stripe still gives you choice. I mean what's next? On the break you have to keep track of which one fell in a pocket first.

    An interview with Emily

    You must live in an alternate universe. Pool players have been treated like whores for decades. How many players have been stiffed when payout time comes along? Thats just one example. Matchroom is trying to change that.

    An interview with Emily

    Unfortunately not going to happen. The only thing the WPA brought to the table has been threats.

    Shaw concedes down 5-0

    So I don't have to look it up, Can you tell me what the entry fee is and what the buy back price is? And how many actually do the buyback process on average?

    Shaw concedes down 5-0

    Or... eliminate buybacks and go to a triple elimination format? Not sure if that would have a net benefit.

    Shaw concedes down 5-0

    Just getting rid of the buyback option would solve 90% of the delays. Lose two and your out. Simple as that.

    Shaw concedes down 5-0

    I agree with that. Filler has matured over the past few years. I do respect his abilities. But I can't get the "arrogant prick" image out of my head.

    I feel the same about Filler

    Kielwood Experiences

    But it's not just the moisture that is being removed. There is more to it then that. Far more chemistry going on.

    Kielwood Experiences

    The same statements were said about carbon shafts. But most have said this is untrue if you just keep it clean. I have used a friend's Kielwood for several hours. Didn't notice any stickiness. Played very well for me actually. It's the next billiard purchase on my wish list.

    Lighting: Parabolic Louvers vs. Egg Crate

    Usually the parameter lights are mounted close to the ceiling. Glare for the player shouldn't be any worse then a bar light hanging 40 inches over the table.

    BAR RULES and DIRTY POOL – Why Official Rules are Important

    Just pretend to kick at it, miss the 8 and leave the cue ball against the head rail. Just a basic lag. Depends where their balls are though.

    Lighting: Parabolic Louvers vs. Egg Crate

    This has come up before. Wouldn't a simple skirting setup eliminate the glare to the sides?

    Which rule book to go by?? BCA??

    I have several players in the league I run that have been playing for years and still don't know the bcapl rules. I get phone calls almost every league night. Most recent call had to do with balls jumped off of the table. They insisted it gets respotted. I told them, no, it is ball in hand for...

    Lately, Everytime I See Johnny...

    If Johnny would take a tune up (or complete overhaul) from Mark Wilson, he might be able to make a comeback. That's if he can put away his ego long enough to do it. Otherwise he will always be a has been.

    He definitely has the cahoonas to even attempt it.

    Pool halls in Bloomington Illinois?

    Thanks. Not really looking for action, but might be coerced into a couple of cheap sets. Ill check out Ride the Nine. Within a block or two of Jim's Steakhouse is a BIG plus.

    The commentators said that too. I didn't see it happening.
