Have you played on any of the Predator branded tables yet, not Kim steel.

If you watch 3 Cushion, the dress code is still in effect. I tried to get some of my local amateur tournaments to implement a dress code when streaming. Saturday, day 1 would be normal; collar shirts, shorts. Sunday, day 2, aka money round, should be a dress code for the stream.

I think TSA is security theater, and not real security.

You realize this is the exception, not the norm as cues are still not allowed as carry-on. If no one stopped or questioned him, it means all the layers of security failed.

Samsonite S'Cure Large, aka 30"

For traveling with cues, I asked what the pros were using, then for my Vegas trip I bought the same hard case. They travel more than me, so I figured they would have it down, just like their break shots. I pack my cues in the suitcase or rolling duffle bag. For peace of mind, a cheap $30...

The viewership has shrunk to the point of diehards, and maybe turning some off. This is why pool is no longer on cable tv, and only available on streaming level. For those complaining why cornhole is on tv, its because there are more viewers than pool. By charging for content at this stage...

Shot clock starts when all the balls stop moving. Now, this doesn't prevent a player from coming up to the table and start shooting. As for calling time, say last 10 seconds. I was told to call it out irregardless if a player is down on their shot or not. On a scratch, shot clock starts as...

Episode 1, putting down the deposit for the cue. Told it will be ready in 6 months, 1 year max. Episode 2-next 12 years, phone call or e-mail when is my cue gonna be ready. @justnum Not sure if you are aware, the American Cuemakers Association has an award ceremony at Super Billiards Expo. I...

My favorite is once I become a 7, I will compete professionally.

In many pool halls that I've been, there is always a pit table or two. These have tighter pockets. Unless there is a money match, or every table being used, I've noticed there is less demand than regular tables.

In APA 8-ball scoresheet, they track innings, time-outs, 8-ball made on the break, 8-ball break and run, defensive shots, and match points.

You have three years support and warranty on the Arena lights. I'm surprised they couldn't resolve the issue to your satisfaction.

Showing off your knowledge by using industry lingo. :)

To address these complaints, last year's Matchroom US Open had neutral rackers on every table. Scorekeepers, had no referee duties, just scorekeep and rack the balls. As more money grows in these tournaments, I think neutral rackers more common place.

I would try inexpensive solutions first, such as Aramith Ball cleaner and Aramith Ball restorer.

Update I stopped at Steinway. The plans put out by the developers isn't yet approved. I was wrong thinking this was a done deal. Steinway is planning to have the Ginky Memorial. They're still working on the details. I offered to help that tournament. If you want to call Steinway, call to...

I'm sorry to hear this news. I'm going to post the same advice that I gave to a friend. It won't help you in this theft, but may help prevent a future loss. If you have cues that are meaningful or high end, consider putting a tracker such as Tile or Apple Air Tag in your cue case. They're...

If your doctor recommends cataract surgery and you currently need reading glasses, then look into the option of variable focus lens implant.

For players you only known by their nickname for years, brackets are where you learn their actual names. :-)
