    Best Hustle

    I in no way am defending him. Just hoping he might learn a lesson. But if I had a friend who I knew did something like this- he would no longer be my friend. I was just trying to give the guy an opportunity to learn something. This was a cold thing he did and most who do this don't talk...

    This is why I have been careful to not too aggressively knock you in this thread.... I thought you might have no idea. If you look at all the posts made in response to your story (and other posts in this forum about this subject) I think you could learn allot. Dudley (Most take this very...

    choppin ur backer... Deadeye, I agree with FB that this type of thing happens all the time in poolrooms but if you think about it you might understand why you are being jumped on. The bartender tried to put you in a game because you said you had no dough. Is this a good reason to steal his...

    Hustle was the wrong term.... This was more like a Con. There are many threads on gambling etiquette, you might want to check them out. Dudley

    Best Hustle

    Wow, I think many will have an issue with your story. There is a big difference between a hustle and chopping, cutting up or dumping. This is the kind of thing that gets ugly if found out. This is one reason why backers have moved on to other gambling avenues like poker. It would be very...

    Whats with all the clapping?

    Yeah I understand what you are saying. I guess the reality is the majority of the ESPN target audience has no idea what a hard shot or run out is anyway. The pool playing community should be happy it has the air time it does have and hope for more. Maybe one day the audience will be more...

    Whats with all the clapping?

    I don't have any investment in this changing in the future I was just commenting how this is something that has always struck me as funny. If the crowd is instructed to clap after every shot then this is how it is. Although if I was watching my buddy play in the finals of a tournament I...

    Whats with all the clapping?

    mild form of sexism????? I have to admit I have thought the same thing many times. Why would you clap every time a professional makes a simple shot? In my mind it is kind of demeaning to the women players. I can't ever recall the continuous clapping in a televised mens match.(why is this?)...

    Is this a 3/8-10 joint pin? what diameter at the joint? I ask because I play with predator and would like to use a standard 314-2 predator with a 3/8-10 joint if I bought the cue. beautiful cue.... looks like a great player... Dudley

    Biloxi Mike Murdered!!!!

    My condolenses go to all who knew him. I didn't get to meet him or see him play but it is obvious by what has been posted that he was great guy who many will miss. Sad day.... Dudley

    One pocket breaks

    From time to time the corner ball does go on the break..... However I would consider it extremely unethical to manipulate the rack in order to make a ball in this way. On a tight Rack without tilting on the spot it isn't possible. I have run 8 and out before making a ball this way but it wan't...

    WTB Cue Glide or Cue Silk

    Josh, Per your advice I went out and bought some biosilk. It doesn't smell exactly the same as cuesilk however I do have to say it does work pretty close to the same (maybe better). This is a much more economical version of cuesilk but imo I don't think they just repackage the stuff. thanks...

    Flame Away

    Johnny, I too go crazy reading through the aiming forums but for me it is because it is so 1 dimensional. I think for most better players that you speak of the aiming system or new secret technique for pocketing balls is just a placebo. Nothing helps your game more then shooting the same...

    Delibrate players or slow players

    How long would a tournament last if everyone played at your pace? I think you need to learn how to pick up the pace because it isn't fair to make the entire tournament revolve around you. How much time do you really need to see the best shot in most situations? In nine ball there are mostly...

    Addressing the cue ball high and going low on the final stroke for draw.

    Great insight henho. I identify with your thought process on what the journey to better pool is... As far as addressing the cue ball only the shooter themselves knows what they are doing. When I line up on a shot regardless of what spin I use I might dive my tip into the cloth during some...

    Strictly regarding center ball = shooting a shot without english. In my opinion aiming on shots without english has more to do your mechanics then your aiming system as long as you have put in the work to learn how to sight and execute the shots---there is not much to debate. Dudley
