You make a good point. I will weigh each style and update the info. Only the non-machined racks have been reported to be heavier than expected. I suppose that could be due to some having used the light extruded aluminum racks like the Delta in the past. The plain racks with no machining weigh...

They are tighter than the Diamond rack but I can rack like normal. I'll try to get a pic with my greedy fingers in there when I get home. For Gar- There is room for fingers in the gaps behind the balls but not between the balls and the rack. I typically only place 4 fingers in the back as I...

There is a .020" chamfer machined along the outside edge. It gets a bit more rounded with the roughly .003-.005" thick powder coat. A local room has been using them on their tables since July and has not mentioned any issues. I imagine if a corner is slammed onto the table it will push down...

The racks are designed and machined in our shop in TN. They are made from 6061 aluminum and given a powder coat protective finish. We have not yet advertised the racks, so most of our sales have been local. Our racks have been a favorite of the straight pool players due to their slim design...

Well done. I made this shot in a barbox tourney 25 years ago but the balls were wired cross-side. My opponent was dumbfounded so I figured he had never watched the movie. IIRC Forrest Whitaker's character made a pretty cool shot in this flick too. I'll have to re-watch it because I think I...

Bad things. Google can tell you. Ritchie was not near the best in the area but he was the only good player I knew who played that game.

8 ball last pocket. I was going to tell you to call Ritchie Idrovo but I discovered he is no longer with us. He was the guy to call for last pocket 8 ball in that area for many years.

Yeah Bob was a sick 14.1 player. I still recognize 25% or so of those names. Dunklin and Donny Branson tried getting my buddy and I into a money game many years ago. My bud could easily hang with Mike but neither of us were a match for Donny. Hard pass on that game. They probably hoped we didn't...

If that was a list for straight pool only, #59 would be in the top ten in his day. Guy ran over 100 every day he came to the pool hall 15 years ago.

I moved away 12 years ago. Try searching Fargo for top IL players. They all gamble.

Quite possibly,but I remember them selling off small parts of their dominion for bug bucks and they had a while lot of them.

The APA LOs we had in IL made mad money. Probably 15-20 years ago now but I'm sure they are still trying to spend the cash they made. They had a huge area of northern Illinois where bar box pool was very popular.

Oh, yeah I do remember her being forced down the throats of everyone on the internet. Similar to the Brittney and Lindsey treatment. I was probably the last to know who she was though because specific forums are largely the extent of my internet presence.

You can try but Anna and Maria were big names in their day. I can't name any attractive gymnasts even though there are many.

Post title should have read: "Kristina is single now?" That is, if we were gossiping hens here. jmho GL in NC!

I just removed PP as an accepted form of payment on my site. Had to give up every bit of personal info for the opportunity to wait another 21 days before I can get paid. Can't wait to cancel that sh!tshow and find out my identity is compromised months or years after canceling.

I've listed a couple custom auto parts on Ebay this year and pulled them due to lack of views. Sort of a niche market but still should get more than 1 or 2 view in a few days. I think they want everyone to pay extra to "boost" their circulation.

It's the Chicago area. More money players there than crooked politicians.

He still plays but not at the level he once did. I was around the same but don't play much anymore so I bounce between 610-620. If I played more than once every month or two I could raise that a bit but have no motivation to do so. Why did you ask "How good was he?" You make it sound like he...

Was? Is he gone? I saw him 3-4 months ago. I'm sure others know his level better than I do but I'd say (from what i remember), at his best he was about a 665 if there was a Fargo back then. I've only faced him on the bar box but a friend once told me he was even better on the big track.
