This! He learned that "Chicago Squeeze" from a lot of the old school guys that ran the halls he grew up in. Larry The Barber, Chrystler Joe, come to mind - watching him play Corey, reminded me of watching Larry give any young king that wanted some 20-8, because the kid thought they had the...

My team "You Can Do EEET" also won our LTC 2 weeks ago and will be our first time in Vegas as well! I've also been digging through AZB looking for info/tips on what to do, where not to go, etc... Really, all I wanna do is go down the street to the other real pool room and pull up a chair - and...

I got a chance to watch this match, and after watching a previous match with TK and SF, I can see why Scott is giving extra help to TK. Yes, TK is a great 9-ball player, but this isn't 9-ball and TK was making some poor choices previously. And I don't hear Scott being harsh towards Tommy; he...

That guy's been here for 7 years, and has 120 posts ... I never thought of myself as someone who contributes much, but by comparison I'm Talky McTyperson. :/ Paying memberships *always* get the best perks. You don't see people complaining that the paying members for pr0n sites get more quality...

well #$^&% I waited and apparently missed the window where the website was still up. On one hand, it super super sucks. On the other, it's awesome that so many people wanted to watch it that we all crashed the website. LOL

The league here is starting it this session. I'm starting a new team with a bunch of old friends, so this will be double-existing for me - first time captain, and new point system to figure out. heh Still, I like that it *should* force more even-skilled matches. On the other hand, I wonder...

Both TAR andAccu-Stats have the shot clock already - and they have the sponsors ads up. The last time I saw a BigTruck stream, he was running commercials and had sponsor graphics. To the guy who complained about ads ... there aren't any ads for the TAR or Accu-Stats PPVs. I haven't bought a...

That Dechaine/Hatch match was one of the rarities I didn't get to witness unfortunately, I think I was out of town that weekend. *shrug* I can't wait for that match to go up on VOD - I'm totally getting it. :) And even though I did buy the weekend for Shane/Effren - I would absolutely get the...

Barney - Ken Shuman knows the game of 1P better than most. He said he doesn't get to play it as much as he would like, as he's a full time tournament director. But if you noticed, he had great opinions on the shots. And having two guys give the merits for their shot selection is more informative...

Yeah, I'd love to know that TAR is sustaining itself. Maybe instead of actual count, just give it in percentages based on the upper/lower limits of the numbers or something. I really wanna believe that #34 was off the charts, but that's being a little over-optimistic, probably. I'm sure...

LOL - That was the only thing that was a little odd to me. Notice though, he was never wrong - the cueball was always over by that diamond. heh But overall, I really enjoyed his commentary - as biased as it was sometimes. "Can you BELIEEEVE THIS?!?!!?" "I can't watch this, I'm gonna faint...

Here's another huge THANK YOU to TAR! This weekend's event was the most exciting match I've seen yet since I started buying the ppv's (going on 2 years now I guess it is). I think we all knew that the crown-jewel of the weekend would be the 1P match, and it lived up to and surpassed all the...

B/W has been the industry standard for portraits the last century for a reason... :) Definitely keep the two-light setup... and if you dont have one already, look into a ring light. There are ways to replicate that look without spending the extra cash on that unit (as long as you have a decent...

I disagree with this ... A new(ish) player should not be dealing with things like deflection consciously. Now there's an option to remove that variable (or diminish it significantly) for new or low-sl players, allowing the student to learn to make balls. Of course, the student should be...

I've had 2 samsaras pop off: one from an OB Break shaft, the other from a BK2 shaft. The tips put on by different installers. One was the result of a terrible miscue on the break, the other was a decent break, but I did hit it off-center. The second was also still the full-size tip and put on...

I've been posting about both of these on my FB page and local pool groups. I'm not pooping my pants exactly, but I'm stupid excited about both of these. :) :happydance::happydance::dance::happydance::dance:

I'd agree with everything you said here. I bought it more to help support the future videos than to learn this method. Plus, I had the bonus of watching an interview where he talked about how he aims, so I had a bit of a headstart on this info. I'll say this - there's something there. My...

All my suggestions have been given already. If you're looking for APA, hit The Cue in Maplewood. If you're more on the southern side of the area, Kenny's is good (barboxes with 1 tight 9-footer). Hillsborough is further south. If you're centrally located, The Break just across the river has...

He said during one of the commentaries he did (during a player timeout) that he had "something happen" to him right after he arrived for the event. He didn't go into detail, but noted it was distracting him from the tournament. He said he was "fine" and his was family was all okay. He also...
