I definitely agree with you here OHB! It happens a lot when the cb is against the rail! Been there done that!!

Egg The amount of slippage was dependant on the power I stroked with. When I first started doing it, I had an occasion or two when the cue slipped out of my hand - embarassing as Hell! What I liked about it was the laser straight stroke and the action I got on the cb. I have used both a...

I used to let the cue slide through my hand through the cb. According to your terminology, that would be a "stroke slip" shot. I took lessons from Buddy Hall and he told me not to do that. He said that you lose control by doing that. I'm not going to disagree with him so I quit using it. I...

I like a 60" cue with a leather wrap. I also like: 18 oz short ferrule non-ivory 13 mm shaft with pro taper Triangle tip Joint - I don't reall care. I've played with most of them and I don't really care that much as long as they tighten up nice. The joint material doesn't matter that much...

There is no doubt that Efren is the better tournament player but gambling? Efren has a huge amount of gamble in him but I've heard that everyone fears Jose when it comes to gambling on pool. At one of the DCC tournaments, Efren listed Jose as his idol in pool. I guess what I'm saying is, I...

I'd like to see Manalo vs Efren in 9b, 8b, and 1h and make it a couple of weeks long. Race to 100 9b, race to 100 8b and a race to 30 1h.

Billychips, I really hope you get this going! What you're trying to do is what I've always hoped would happen on this forum, some match-ups via the web. If this does happen, could you please post the results? You don't have to put how much $$ was won or lost, just who won and generally how...

Buddy Hall has one of the best strokes. For the best overall fundamentals I'd have to say Allison is at the top.

I love to play pool. I almost can't get enough of it as long as I'm having fun. However, whenever I have gambled, the fun of the game just went out the door for me. I think it's because it went from fun to drudgery. Instead of thinking I'd love to try that shot just to see if I could make...

I agree with you SJM, I think Sid is pretty entertaining. It takes a little getting used to him but once you do, he's very funny.

If my wife put on a pair of boxers with nothing underneath and rolled them down a little, I wouldn't get to see the bulge because we'd be doing something.

You can barely see her face. It does look like a bulge down south (you can't see her throat to see if she/he has an adams apple either). And, with her hands covering her breasts, you can't tell what she's got going up there. I agree too that a little more cushion would be nice. Too skinny...

I just watched a couple of hours of it and liked it a lot. I really like the rule that you give up ball-in-hand when you miss a shot. This brings out the offense. These players are not used to doing that and with time and the fact that the money is so big, they will start getting much better...

Tell your friend to make the problems with the other players his problem. In other words, he needs to learn to win in spite of what others are doing. He needs to look at this as an opportunity to learn to focus more on his game and less on his opponents or anyone else for that matter. You...

Brings back memories! My kids are grown now but they used to do the same thing! I forgot just how bad it was till I saw your video! LOL!! Very nice run too!

His bladder must have been hurtin'!!!!

This is just my opinion so if no one agrees that's fine. I understand why Egg posted the PM's but I just don't think they should be shared on the board with everyone. I write a PM to someone, I expect that to be a PRIVATE MESSAGE. My intent was not to share it with everyone even if it's a...

Sounds like this started out as a pissing contest that has now become malicious. I think you both should agree to disagree and forget about it. If you did get together now, it's very possible that it could get ugly regardless of who wins. When things get ugly, no one wins!

I don't like to gamble at pool either. I think it's because I love the game so much I don't want anything to sour me on the game such as a big loss gambling on it. I've seen that happen to many of my old pool pals. One other thing, why let someone talk you into doing something you don't...

Exactly! As I've said before, his first post clearly indicated he didn't have an axe to grind. He just stated his opinion based on what he saw. He doesn't have to be a seasoned tournament fan or a professional photographer to have an opinion about someone's behavior! He doesn't have to be...
