    Lost Arts

    whats missing is the game of 14.1 being played as 50 no count.Now that was a game.....If you dont run 50 then your score doesnt get added. I guess you could set the number to anything 20 , 30 until you got better at it .....I used to watch Pat Fleming play this many times.. He made it look...

    Emily Duddy VS Ine Helvik match Amway Cup March 2013

    Actually, if back then the information flowed as quickly as it does today, Fats would have been revealed as a BS artist in a flash. Can you Imagine when he started the rumor about the Book and Movie was about Him?? and in an hour after he said it, Walter Tevis posts that it wasnt true... THat...

    Last Nights TAR Match..Best Yet

    Before you knock it, and call it nonsense, you should check it out. Pat has had a few Pro matches on stream, under these Arena Rules , and I must say it was an interesting matchup. And, get this, the players actually loved it. Its much more than just push out after the break.. Here are the...

    A message from Emily Duddy to all pool players

    This is why threads like these nothing good can come out of these. Hurt feelings and name calling is the only thing that will ever come out of these, its a no win situation. My suggestion is to let this post die. Everyone should just agree to disagree.... PS.. Jam Say hi to Keith

    SVB racking "shenanigans"

    no matter what they do people are going to complain about the rack.. Maybe they should rack the 1 ball on the opposite end of the rack and bank into it on the break.. I bet someone will right a book on how to make the wing ball by banking into the one behind the rack
