Here's one simple, and very general, rule: If you could shoot the cue ball straight into the pocket you are banking away from (i.e., opposite from the pocket you are banking towards), there is no kiss. Stated another way, if the object ball you are shooting would not interfere with an attempt...

Nice story, JAM. Makes me feel pretty good about my Brunswick Anniversary -- also restored with care right there in Clay Center, Kansas.

I saw the same thing happen a few months ago during league play. The whole place came to a standstill. First and only time I've ever seen it in 40+ years of playing.

I watched Buddy put up a 7-pack at the 10 ball ring game at Shooter's in Olathe, KS a few months ago. Smooth as butter. I'd say he still plays.

there's quite a few of us from kc that post here.

Ah, Big Bertha at Raytown Rec. Played on it many a time. If you're learning from Don or Doug, you got a good teacher. Play some one pocket on that table. Or better yet, have Don or Doug teach you some three cushion on the Verhoven.

Lighten up a little. You can let him know not to touch your stuff without permission without losing him as a friend. BTW, where is this "10 footer" you speak of? Not many of those around any more.

I don't have any pics of the underside of my Anny, but if I remember, I'll take some for you. You can also check with http://www.billiardrestoration.com/

I made the one in my avatar myself. Made of poplar. 4 X 8 ft, with 8 4-ft flourescents.

I'm gonna have to agree with you. I don't have the Viking:( , but I've got the Anniversary:D .

Please put me on your list, Jay. I want one of the first run. I'm sure there will be a second. Thanks, Steve

Beautiful table. Looks oddly familiar.;)

Wow. There's gonna be some purdy kids come outta that union.

Here's my Anniversary. A 9 footer.

Ran 41 the other night in league play. Ended when I dogged the key ball to a perfect break ball. Things were flowing so well up to that point that I just let my concentration lapse for a moment. That's what makes this game so hard -- even on those rare occasions when it's feeling easy.

Awesome photos. The B&W of Busty is exceptional. Keep up the great work. Hope you guys are in KC again soon.

I'd be careful listening to this Harriman guy. I watched him play last night and he couldn't run more than ten balls. Well, he did run ten twice, though. Oh, and he was playing banks. Just kiddin' ya, Danny. I learned a couple things last night. Steve

Yes, the winner is $10k richer than he was before he put the money up. But once the money is on the light, it's no longer his -- none of it. When he wins, he is $20k richer than he would have been if he lost. But I understand what you mean. TAR, my hat's off to you guys. I was there Saturday...

My thoughts are with you, Les. Steve

After John broke out the jump cue and headed to the table, Danny called him on it, saying that they had agreed to use jump cues only in the 10 ball, same as in Louisville. At first, John asked Danny if he had it in writing. Then all the TAR guys confirmed that that was the rule in Louisville...
