    There was someone named Durbin there I might be mixing up the first names though.

    TAR Young Guns ??

    I heard someone reference a very early TAR match with Justin Bergman and John Morra - called Young Guns match? Anyone have any idea where I might be able to find that? JCIN - maybe if that Vimeo on Demand thing works out you can add this match to the library?? Also - any future ideas for...

    Steve Allison took 3rd. Still don't have any results from Frost or Bergman or Durbin. :/

    Midwest 9-Ball, Cahokia, IL Stream?

    I meant to get back over there for the finals Sunday, but it didn't happen. I know Alex Olinger won - he double-dipped Shane McMinn. But I have no idea after 1st/2nd. I know Eric Durbin and Robert Frost were there, as well as Justin Bergman, I'm guessing those guys filled out the next several...

    Midwest 9-Ball, Cahokia, IL Stream?

    The Break has almost no internet access - and a hotspot card wouldn't work either. For some reason, that section of town has crap for cell service (I've been with 2 different carriers since I started going there and each time, I'm lucky to have 1 bar of 3G; never had 4G there). I wish they...

    First time using my BreakRak.....

    I'm so glad you posted this. I just picked up a used BreakRak (III) used about 3 weeks ago. Used it once and noticed some parts of the headball were cracked/coming off from the first time I hit it. :( I wasn't sure what to do about it. But now, I'm going to call as well! But yes - The one...

    Bonus ball????

    I saw something on the Friends of Bonus Ball facebook page that made me think there was still (or another) contractor issue. I didn't follow the thread though, figuring someone with all the knowledge would post an update here or on AZ proper. I'm still hoping this gets worked out; as goofy as a...

    Gene Albrecht's "Perfect Aim"

    About 8 months ago I put something together from one of the threads about this DVD and my own experimenation. It significantly helped my game and I attributed it to the thread about this DVD. I've been tempted to buy this DVD for well over a year now - watching the threads, reading the info...

    Dennis Orcullo Can Beat Me 101 out of 100 Times, BUT...

    I think the real question is - what do you think Dennis' plan actually was on the 3? He drew the CB heftily and wasn't anywhere close to the bank on the 3... Unless he was trying a double-bank into the upper corner. Or maybe he was trying to get under the 5/9 for blockers? Or do you think he...

    2013 USBTC Matches on YouTube

    Just wanted to say THANK YOU for putting these up. :) :) :) I wasn't able to get this stream (though I do buy 90% of the TAR streams) and was kinda bummed I wouldn't get to see any of this event.

    Sylver Ochoa

    My guess is that he isn't doing a lot of streams, or he isn't playing that well overall. (Except for that spanking he put on Daz in the early 1p rounds.) I never saw him at the table personally when I was there (the last 3 days), but saw him a bunch walking around with his girl at Derby. *shrug*

    Dominant Eye

    I thought I heard on a stream just the other week that Shawn Putnam was right-handed in life, but he plays left-handed.

    Frost vs Alex - 1 Pocket Match on Monday for $40,000

    I only got to see games 2-5 before I had to go to bed (damn day job); but it did seem like Scott was just off last night. The commentators mentioned that he hasn't really had anything handed to him; always fighting for a single ball. I saw a shot that is a perfect example of Alex getting just...

    8 Ball Analyze: Rack #1

    I generally dont like moving balls, but for a ball that has only one pocket, you're betting the game on getting perfect position to a) make it and b) get position after that on the next one. I'd probably take the risk of nudging towards the center of the table; but then 8-ball really isn't my...

    8 Ball Analyze: Rack #1

    What about cutting the 3 and nudging the 2 out a little? 6 is the insurance ball and from there all the other plans are pretty much the same. I like starting with the bank on the 5 though, then maybe using the 6 to get to the 3 ... but then position is absolutely critical on the 2 ... no more...

    TAR 31 Podcast w/Shane and Mike+Guest Host Jennifer Barretta 9PM Tonight. Questions?

    For Jennifer: Is she happy with how that 9-Ball movie turned out? Is she happy with how Sharks is going? For Shane: What did he think of the challenge match at DCC this year with Frost? Does he have any thoughts on doing a TAR with one pocket instead of 10-ball? (I actually don't know if it...

    TAR 31 Woofing: Is this real?

    I saw the vid from Shane on the TAR youTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caLGYP-k8KU) - did Mike respond?? I couldn't find it. :( if you're talking about something else - care to share?? :)

    Mental block preventing run outs

    THIS. I can't count how many times I've blown an out after solving all the problems in the rack just in the last 3 weeks. It's driving me absolutely insane. I'm so glad I found this thread... even though all of these things are things I've read many times before and I tell other people to do...

    SVB and the Freezer

    They did at least have the room door shut, but I didn't fork over the $$$ for the private seat; instead I rented out one of the 10-footers and embarrased myself. :p It was a tough decision, as I really wanted to see that, but... whatever. they'll play again, I'm sure.
