Take away the "Required". The standard should be when playing a game to find out who's the best, you should be ethical enough to say that you committed a foul. I require it of myself. I'm the one that has to know that I didn't actually win, but I cheated instead. So that's the standard I...

If you commit a foul, it's a foul. It's not a legal hit unless it's seen by a ref, then it's a foul. The players know the rules. If they commit a foul, there should be no reason why they can't freely admit it. So, if she did not declare the foul that she knew she committed, and ended up...

There's not a hole. It's filled. Talk to Royce.

The classics do not have a hole in the middle. Thought you should know.

The OB Classic is not hollow, so therefore, does not have a hollow hit. The OB-1 and OB-2 are filled with a silicone sound dampening foam (if I recall correctly) to address the hollow hit/sound issue. It does a decent job. I have been extremely satisfied with the OB Classic's feel and sound...

Same here.

Since the diamond smart tables come with different pocket cuts, you can still get a diamond smart table with buckets. The biggest obstacle will be the cost of replacing the valley tables. This is the case in the DFW area. However, for room owners that are wanting to attract more business in...

What makes it a loss of game is this: The person who moved the cue ball, and several other balls, only because he was upset about a miscue, has made it so that the game could not continue to its normal outcome, no matter what that might have been. Therefore, he ended the game right then and...

Loss of game.

I think it's a great idea, but have it where it's a mother and father with a teenage son who get turned away, and then the guy who asks, "Can we join you?" be a father and his teenage daughter. This would appeal to families as well.

I don't think they "skidded" more, but they did seem to react a bit different. And in less than a weeks worth of play, you could see on both cue balls and numbered balls abrasions on them. When brand new, as in the first day with them, they played pretty well. By the middle of teams, they...

World Standardized does not currently spot any balls made by accident, in 8-ball. The question have to your rules, is why does the incoming player get BIH? Basically, you're saying, if you miss your shot and nothing falls, it's not BIH to your opponent. But if you miss your shot, and it...

I'm a little late to the thread, but... Here's a simple tip to start to learn to play off hand. 1. Use an open hand bridge. No need to start learning complex bridging. 2. Shoot 5 object balls into pockets (no cue balls yet) before you start warming up with your regular hand. You won't get...

Here would be my suggestion. http://www.pooldawg.com/product/lucasi-lc-3-4-butt-8-shaft-black-leather-pool-cue-case I've had this case now for about 6 years, and could not be happier with it. It's got more padding than the one you are looking at, and a much better strap. You can hold a ton...

Play safe with the 15 and either stun down under the 2, or draw straight back and again, go under the 2. Can these be run. Yes, it's possible. Not probable. The biggest issue, as pointed out is the 1, 11 area. If you take stripes, as so many have suggested, the zone for your cue ball is...

I have to say I'm somewhat shocked at the niavety of several people who have posted, stating that they would never split the finals of any tournament. Seldom does it come down to the money. Most of the time it comes down to people, who respect eachother's games, if not outright friends, and...

This game is about adapting. The more you get used to playing on a lot of different types of tables, cloths, types of cueballs etc. The stronger your game becomes. Then you're not playing on an 8 foot with a red circle, or playing on a Valley with a valley cueball, or a 9 foot with a blue...

While I do not know the IPPA rules, but in *most* rules on pool games, to intentionally move one or more balls WITHOUT a stroke is unsportsman like conduct, and could result in forfeiture of the game. To do it accidentally, is a foul. To do it intentionally is bad sportsmanship. The other...

Is the object of your rules, to take luck out of the game? I'm just curious as to your motivation for the rules changes. If it is to take luck out of the game, have you ever looked up Grady Mathews 9-Ball rules. You may find them appealing. Here they are, explained by Grady. "Grady's 9...
