    best bar table player

    This may be a boneheaded question, but when we're talking about who's the best on a bar table, are we talking just about 8-ball on a bar table?

    Bank Pool only..a waste of time?

    I've never really played bank pool, but would like to learn. A couple of quick questions. I don't want to hijack the thread or anything, but figure it's pretty much on point. 1. Which is a more popular game, full rack or short? Which is better for a beginner? 2. What are the best banking...

    Which is the best set of pool balls?

    If you decide to go with the centennials, bamacues had some for sale, new, for $175 or so. Great deal. If those are gone, the best deal I've seen is billiard warehouse for $209.

    Which is the best set of pool balls?

    I have heard many on here state that they are the same balls, and the only difference is the markings. Others have claimed that there is some minor differences between them. I always took the first answer (that they're the same) as the right one. I happen to like the markings on the...

    Hyper Kid Shooting Pool :D

    I'm no shrink, but it sure looks like some kind of OCD to me. I don't know what got me thinking about this, buy I have on occasion wondered if you did have obsessive compulsive disorders, whether pool would be good therapy, or if it would drive you crazy?

    Good luck with the sale. I have an Olhausen Remington in 8 foot pro with Simonis on it, and it plays great. You mentioned some balls for sale-- any centennials by any chance?

    O.K. Call me dumb, call me stupid, but.....

    So would it be accurate to say that AIG, a few investment banks, the subprime mortgage industry and possibly GM have recently fired an air barrel because they've been gambling with money that they don't have? LOL. Maybe that one should have been NPR.

    O.K. Call me dumb, call me stupid, but.....

    Don't feel stupid--I didn't know what it was until a little bit ago either. My initial impression, until someone explained it, was that it might be shooting and missing everything. Sort of like shooting an air ball in basketball.

    Two questions about draw

    I have been doing some drills to improve my ability to shoot with draw, and was wondering about two questions: 1. Am I imagining it, or is it easier to draw the cue ball when you hit with draw AND a little right or left English? Granted, the english doesn't always put the cue ball exactly...

    FS: Autographed Phil Capelle Books

    I love his books. I have Play Your Best Pool and Play Your Best 8 ball. His straight pool book is on the way from Amazon as we speak. If anyone's thinking about getting the 8 ball book, I should note that it is very geared towards playing on bar boxes. Somehow I didn't know that when I...

    WTT: super aramith pro for centennials

    I have a set of super aramith pro balls. They are about two years old, and have seen normal home use. I know that they're basically the same ball, but I like the markings on the centennial better. Would anyone here want to trade their set of centennials (in good condition) for my super...

    How to practice 9-ball ?

    Let me premise this by saying that I just got back into pool two years ago and am not a great 9-ball player. I do have two things that I'd like to add, though: 1. There's a guy named Phil Capelle who writes great books. I don't have "Play your best 9 ball" yet, but I do have his books "Play...
