    Accu-Stats Videos Commentary

    Show some love for the Beard He is far and away the FUNNIEST commentator out of all of them. One of my favorite quotes from him was "It would take an intervention from Mother Kabrina for him not to get out from here". Where does he come up with this stuff??? Go Beard! Chris

    Good players using TAD cues?

    Tang Ho I believe Tang Ho had a Tad - Crown City Corey would probably know best.

    There are Pool Angels

    Great Story Brings me back to when I was a kid begging my parents to buy a table - I knew from a very early age I was going to play this game the rest of my life. I had the pleasure of playing Mike this weekend - he is a pretty spiffy straight pool player and hell of a nice guy. Cant wait for...

    Banking w/ the Beard - Didn't work... hmmm..

    Banking on Diamond Pro Am I have read Freddy's book and had the some problem. Wrote him and he said Diamonds bank short (they do). He had my adjust by cutting 1/4 more ball and hitting it firm. Did the trick.

    Thanks to "THE REAL KING COBRA"

    Glen is worth the wait You can imagine how busy the best mechanic in the US - he wont leave a table unless its perfect.

    760, How tight is right?

    Look athe knuckles of the installer If they are scarred - he is stretching it tight (as RKC would tell you). I had Glen do my table about 5 months ago (simonis HR). It is crazy tight and plays faster than any simonis I have played on. If you can get him to recover your table - he is the NUTS!

    Best practice for 2 friends who play together regularly.

    I had the same problem Then I encased a 50 bill inside glass and my friend and I play for "the bill". Represents bragging rights. Person who wins gets possession until the next meeting.

    Green or Blue Simonis 860

    Glen is right again Bought some chalk board erasers and its the quickest thing yet to cleaning your table. Trouble is finding them - I had to go to a teachers supply store to get a couple of the suckers!

    Green or Blue Simonis 860

    Try Simonis 860 HR I have a Diamond Pro AM 9 foot - tournament blue Siminos 860 HR. Its new from Simonis and doesnt burn as much as the regular Siminos. I have had it about 3 months on my table and still looks great. Anybody else had this experience?

    Rkc...the Man, The Myth , The Legend,

    Just want to say Glen deserves the myth status - I am Chris (the guy he set the 3 piece pro-am) and it plays the NUTS. I am still in awe how fast the cloth is (Glen stretches it tighter than any cloth I have ever played on). Glen is both a gentleman and a scholar when it comes to table...

    Ted Harris

    Great Cue But take his time estimate with a grain of salt. Quote for me was 6 months - actual time over 2 years. He had a lot of health problems. Will get a fantastic cue if you order one - just dont be in a hurry for it.

    being beaten vs losing

    Listen to Russ He's right on the money. Best book ever written for pool is the Inner Game of Tennis. Only thing I would add is dont get your self esteem tied to winning a game of pool. Ultimately its just a game and when you tie your self esteem in there it just adds more pressure. Get the...

    Joe Salazar stories?

    Tracy Joe I was just a kid growing up in Upland CA when I saw Tracy Joe playing at Shooters. He and Frank Almanza were probably the best players in the joint. Joe Salazar had perhaps the prettiest stroke I have ever seen. Had these chubby fingers, small stature yet he was always smooth -...
