Diamond is considering producing a chinese 8-ball top for their 9footers if the sport continues to grow and become popular... I would not look for it in the next few months tho =)

Having the same opinion as you doesn't mean someone gets it... I am against banning the jump cue so to me he doesn't "get it" and I have actually talked to him about it.... The funny part of this whole argument is that people want to make it seem like every single time you play safe now people...

If he is for god's sake make them use the Accu-Rack or Magic Rack if the ref racks LOL... Love Ken to death but I give him crap all the time about the rack so please read this as a joke... I know they will play rack your own......

Most players do swap out the everest but you can always upgrade when you order to the tip of your choice instead of changing it one you get it.... The pad is REQUIRED to remain on the shafts but most authorized repair guys have them in stock if for some reason it has gotten too thin.... The...

That part I knew but the pocket sizes were considerably smaller I think...

The US Open is the only event that is 100% guaranteed new balls and new cloth so it might be fine there... I played with a top rack 5 years ago and while I had a prototype that worked to freeze the rack the balls would roll off just like when you remove a regular rack after you thought they...

If the game was as easy now as everyone is letting on I would say yes... Would be interesting seeing what the stats are from different events compared templates vs non... I think AtLarge compared Chinese 8Ball and the Accu-Stats 8Ball invitational where we used the Accu-Rack Solo and it...

It is evolving... That does not mean it's broken.... There will be around 60 million viewers of the US Open in the Asia and Europe... Maybe they fixed it a decade ago and we kept the broken version for nostalgia's sake.. Ref racking with inspection only definitely keeps it broken...

Pulled this from the epic match thread... Notice no 2-3 on the wings... I will take the blame for that at the MIH because at one point that was the official rule and I was unaware it had been changed, someone else confirmed the old rule and we ran with it.... Notice Roberto's ball paths on...

Breaking from the wings you do not get the same ball paths as from 6inches left or right of center of the table... To get the optimal ball paths you have to hit the rack pretty much perfectly to bank one of the balls next to a wing at a far corner... If you are not doing that you are going to...

It failed because Congress changed the laws on offshore betting using credit cards... When that was no longer an option the buyer and model evaporated into smoke......

I think of it as what happens with a players TPA... If a player is usually making 6 balls for each mistake they would be shooting an 857 TPA.... If they started making 6.5 balls on average for each mistake they would move their TPA up to a 867.... If they move up to 7 mistakes per error then...

Actually there is plenty wrong with the players having to break the balls as racked by a referee and not being able to ask for a rerack if the referee has broken both tracks where there is likely no shot at making a ball.... Even if the same referee is racking for both and just doing his best...

That's a great point.. The bar bangers think they could play that well if they only quit work and practiced... You actually have to be a certain speed or have been I think to truly understand the nuances... That's why maybe more offense and less nuance might be the ticket for the average Joe...

The only issue is that if you go this route you will have to do what matchroom did which is the player can only look at the rack but not ask for a rerack and then attempt to their based based on whatever they have been given. There were tons of slugs in the Mosconi cup where the balls did not...

The NUMBER 1 reason snooker has viewers is that you can bet on Snooker even at the Junior level pretty much on every corner... Until the open up the gambling rules here in the states pool won't have enough of a following at the pro level to grow

Knew you had watched it an posted Johnnyt so wasn't addressing anything you had to say since you would be entitled to any opinion you had formed by being a part of it..... I was directing the comment at the $50 dollar post since I knew that was the price because I had paid for it for the...

Thank you for your patronage.... Without supporters the events would not be possible.. You indeed helped to "Make it Happen"...

If this was directed at Accu-Stats and the events they cover all I can tell you is the costs associated with their coverage don't even get covered with PPV revenue... And as the DVD market continues to shrink the time from coverage to actually getting into the black goes longer and longer...

If we want to see another American win a WPA World title we need to be playing with the same rules that they use... Just because some people think the break was and should be a random event should not mean it has to be that way today... Alternate break on a template and first one blinks...
