Just some thoughts; I noticed that here in Rochester one of the rooms offer $5 per day period. It does seem however that they pull in pool players that are already playing and practicing in bars and other rooms (not a bunch of rooms to pick from here either) This flat rate works here because...

Thanks. This is definately one the the events that I would absolutely enjoy watching. Unfortunately as a single dad I can not get away, so I'm at home quite a bit. I'll will watch for updates though. . .

Thanks for the updates. It would be great if we could watch the action.

Good idea on the cigar shop. Regarding NYS, no big rebounds. many bars have closed and pool halls have lost lots of business in upstate NY. I think there has been a small rebound but clearly not like it used to be. I think after a whole generation moves ahead we will see an improvement, that is...

I believe that there is no law that states, at least in NY, that requires an establishment to call the local authorities if someone is smoking in the establishment. In fact all that the establishment needs to do is to is to post the signs and ask those that are smoking to stop. The law also does...

Thanks for bringing up about kids. My son and I travel once and a while to play. He is 10 now but there are many rooms around the country we can not play in because of his age. Strange isn't it? I thought I was his dad. Well I guess in some counties the government likes to be the kids dads by...

Your right about that. If the table has grime on it from just hand oils, waxes and such, you need more than a vacuum. Using an upholstery cleaner (not water based) is a good choice in this case, but the reality is that the chemicals that create the foam do not dissipate into the air. They just...

I agree and there is nothing that works better than a vacuum. Some one need to develop a super light weight one with a wide attachment and low sucking power.

If I remember correctly, this is a water based product. This also means slower dry time. If you rub hard with any wet product it will cause it to stretch somewhat. I would stay away from water based and flammable materials (cheap is flammable, new wave chemistry = non-flammable / ozone safe...

I agree with you, great feed back from an ss jointed cue.

Tom was always supportive and helping me while getting my products off the ground. I will miss his phone calls, emails and most definatly his posts right here on AZB. Thanks for everything Tom. Pete . . . .

I know a player who swears by something similar. Instead he says to take your stroke back as if you had an imaginary rubber band forcing your stroke forward as you pull it back. Interesting this player is pro rated and I have seen him run 70+ balls in 14.1 opposite handed. Just a great player...

Generally players do have a peak and that peak depends on their willingness to commit. I have seen players take up the game later in life and become 'A' and have seen some play most of their lives and never reach 'A'. It takes commitment and then a level of understanding that seems to...

Play all the games because each one builds unique skills. I mean 3 cushion billiards too. . .

Way to go Jimmy.

Hey Jam. Regarding lost mail. I had more difficulty with the PO sending product out over the last 2 months. For some reason mailings were late and in several other cases the packaging label got torn and the package returned to me. Given that I am sending product, I can send out again if...

The best thing to use on a Cuetec cue for cleaning is a petroleum based one that leaves no residue, as I have found. Important though is to stay away from silicon for two reasons; 1. silicone attracts oils and greases which in turn attract dirt 2. your cuesmith/maker will hate you if you ever...

I've played there many times and always seemed to have no problem finding a game.

I heard one guy while his opponent was shooting say to his friend so that his opponent would hear, "Did you ever look at an object ball and see double." His opponent missed miserably after that.

Very interesting. The one about which one is bigger, Godzilla or .. really threw me. I missed others but this was really a significant miss.
