I'm surprised that they're charging for this and can't provide streams for the rest of the tables.

Groot is Dutch for Great!

That was a great match. Kang Lee ran 7 points in one inning.

Could be IPT or Aramith Tournament for the one on the left. Tournament is is made with Duramith technology, a technique to make harder wearing surface. The twin dart styling on the right is trademarked by Brunswick. Saluc makes Centennials for Brunswick using the same phenolic resin as Super...

Do you know where is Universal Hansom located? TaiCan is in TaiShan county Guangzhou. I was told majority of the billiard accessories were made there, founded by Chinese-Americans.
