I don't recall seeing anything like this at the DCC or in another pool room that has all blue cloth. Maybe because those tables have lived long enough that the small marks just don't "stick out" as much as they do when it's brand new?

Dave - The Cue in Maplewood. I stopped by there last night and saw that they were able to clean them again, and a lot of the marks went away - but they didn't get them all. I've attached some pics, but the spots don't really show up in them nearly as much as they do when you're standing at...

Tonight is my only "non-pool" commitment night ... but I will probably still try to get up there to grab some pics, cuz ... yeah, this is weird and I wanna do anything I can to help ensure the longevity of the blue cloth there.

Nope, they don't disappear when you rub them and I'm told the owner tried to clean the cloth and they didn't come up. Though, I don't know what the method was, or what cleaning solution (if any) was used. These are black - black marks though - not a darkish spot. It looks like a mechanic came...

bwahahahahahaaa!!!

The marks are very small ... maybe around 1/2 inch for the larger ones. There's no uniform shape, but most are streak-like. So, the tip into the cloth could be an issue. Though, with few exception, everyone has some type of brown type (only a handful of us have black leather tips). The marks...

So one of my local pool rooms just made the upgrade to blue simonis on their (Valley) barboxes. After just 2 days, there's a bunch of a black marks all over the cloth. At first, I blamed the balls being dirty, though they were cleaned with the new cloth (don't know if the ball return rails...

I grabbed their Classic Pro right after it came out and was a little annoyed at the variance in colors going around the shaft. I think it was just mine though, as the other OB cues I've seen don't have the issue nearly as apparent as that one. I also have an OB Break that looks pretty uniform...

Name another movie where Christopher Walken is THE GOOD GUY and Ricky Schroder is the BAD guy!!! hahaha And the end... when Joe is trying to get under Walken's skin... oh man, the BEST. I'm a millionaire! I lose 80 thousand, I go get another 80 thousand.

I had this too a couple years back when I was playing a LOT. After coming here and doing some google searches, I changed my stance just a hair to better carry the weight on my legs and stop leaning so heavily on my bridge-arm... pain was gone. It's a minor change that shouldn't affect your...

That mean you'll be there Friday as well? Cuz, I think we have some one hole to get to; since we missed it at the DCC. ;)

I only go there to play in the tournaments, so this hasn't been an issue for me personally - but I think I remember someone (maybe Jaden) posting this exact thread a year or more ago. And it makes sense that they would tell someone over the phone they wouldn't be allowed to play; it's a risk to...

um... there's usually several asian guys there, of all ages. ;)

I remember watching this ... it was a great match, even though you could tell Grady wasn't executing what his mind was seeing. Still... things can be learned here; even if they weren't pulled off exactly, the intent is the big instruction. :) Thanks for posting this Lenny!

I use http://www.pool.bz for all of mine. Click on the "Learning Software" menu and choose CueTable. You will have to create a membership profile on their site (it's free and easy) to use it though - and it's a Shockwave Flash driven, so... I know there's another one out there that doesn't...

I'm in the same boat. I was late to the TAR party, but have been buying every TAR weekend the last couple of years - but I still want to see the older ones. I expect it's not easy to convert some of the video files to the required format for VOD ... in that takes time. (something like 20...

This makes me so sad - but your explanation is sound. And you're right ... this will be one helluva match and is quite a highlight to end on. Thank you for all you've done (and sadly I've only been around for the last 3 years of it). I hope the VOD solution is around for a while. Is there...

That ring game was absolutely amazing!!! I also watched the stream for it. And h.o.l.y.c.r.a.p!!! it is so worth buying! I'll be buying it as well. I just love the commentary, Freddie and Scott are speechless at times.

I was really concerned I'd end up on top of the 6 if I went naturally forward on that shot; hence all my hesitation. There's a few shots where I end up sorta-kinda about where I wanted, but I was playing to error on the side of "in-line, but longer shot" instead of trying to get real perfect...

This happens to me a lot, but if I use the magic rack it really helps. A lot of depends on just how the table is racking/breaking that day and trying to adjust the speed to ensure a good spread and make a ball. I have never beaten the ghost; not even if the ghost gives me the 7 (or last 3)...
