    Pool Table Card Trick

    Either one or both of the decks is tricked. Notice when he fans out the first deck, you only see one face card. when he fans through the second deck there appear to be only about half the full amount of cards, but they look thick. It's easy to pick out a particular face up card when every other...

    Video of "The Shot" on The Action Report

    johnnyt, it's nice to see someone admit jumping to the wrong conclusion. You have my respect. Where's everyone else? Nobody seemed to want to pay attention to posts from people that were there and saw things "differently" than McWoofer. I guess now that they can see it with their own eyes they...

    Congratulations to Shane Mcminn

    I'll second that. Shane played great. Congratulations to him. Banks Jr. played great as well. As did Orcollo, Walden, the "other" Shane and a host of others. What a tough field to beat!

    I think the whole world could give you the seven out if the game was credibility.

    Olathe!!!! What A Joke!!!

    Thanks, Hemi. I don't post a lot, and I'm generally a calm guy, but I really have a hard time fading all this "they made a mockery of the room" and "there's definitely something wrong because these no-names got to the finals" and "this kind of thing will mean the end of this event." What...

    Olathe!!!! What A Joke!!!

    No. You still don't get it, do you? Shane had the choice of taking the shot himself, or passing it back to Mike. He had no option to pass it to DO. The shot and the remaining table was tough enough that Shane didn't like his chances, and decided that rather than taking the shot himself and...

    Olathe!!!! What A Joke!!!

    TAP TAP TAP. I complimented you on what you were doing when I introduced myself to you in Olathe. I compliment you again for your post. Boy, I'd hate to have some of these folks on a jury. All it takes is a little hyperbole to get 'em worked up and ready to hang.

    Olathe!!!! What A Joke!!!

    There ya go -- straight form Mike. Everyone that has jumped to the conclusion that something dirty was going on -- especially if it's based solely on JM's opening rant -- needs to take a step back.

    Olathe!!!! What A Joke!!!

    That's pretty much my point. If McMinn took the option he thought was best for HIMSELF, how's that cheating, or even unethical? BTW, I didn't call either of them no-namers. I was just qouting the other poster. And believe me, Jr. isn't a "no-namer" either -- not around these parts.

    Olathe!!!! What A Joke!!!

    Jr. fouled on the shot. McMinn is next in the rotation, and has the option of taking the resulting layout or making Jr. shoot again. He chose to make Jr. shoot again. It wasn't cheating.

    Olathe!!!! What A Joke!!!

    Obviously, you've not played either of these "no-namers." And apparently, you didn't watch them play over the weekend. They both deserved to be where they were based on the strength of their play -- as individuals. And IF McMinn took a calculated risk by letting Jr. shoot again, because he...

    Attn Jamie Mcworter............

    But you can't defend the things he's saying about Dave. It doesn't matter who he knows or how he plays . . . that BS doesn't sit well around here.

    Retored Brunswick Anniversary and Centennial tables

    My preference is the Anniversary, but I doubt you would be disappointed with either. It's not a great picture, but you can see my Anniversary in my avatar pic. It was restored by Billiard Restoration Service, mentioned above. I love it.

    Inaugural Side Pockets 14.1 League Final Standings

    You got that right. It's even better, though. While Danny was breezing through the above-mentioned 100+ run, I got not only a running commentary on his planning and thinking process, but also some advice and suggestions during my rare trips to the table. Priceless.

    Inaugural Side Pockets 14.1 League Final Standings

    Gee, Scott...thanks for killing all my action.;) (and for not revealing my embarrassing handicap):o And thanks to Danny for warming me up for the finals by putting a 100+ run on me while we practiced (including about 3 racks left-handed). At least I wasn't worn out from shooting. Seriously...
