    Pool ball colors clarification

    The 4 ball was pink and the 5 ball was orange in the 2015 Mosconi Cup. There were no issues seeing the balls or distinguishing which ball was which. Any change after that is to sell more ball sets. If Aramith came out with the "ghost set", with every ball colored white with only the...

    Pool ball colors clarification

    Other streams use traditional colors. With modern televisions, there are no issues distinguishing the balls. I'd guess ball manufacturers pay to get their products that kind of exposure. Matchroom is responsible for the sale of thousands of those abortions from Aramith. JMHO I find it difficult...

    Mosconi cup times

    I was told Sky was like ESPN channels on US cable -included in cable bundles. Perhaps that is not the case. Sad the American consumer has access to "Britbox" and BBC, but not Skysports. I cannot remember a year in which some of our members here did not post problems with the DAZN stream...

    Improvement

    This is where I've been stuck for months now. I think I had it figured out a couple weeks ago but I cannot physically play due to a medical issue currently. I try to hit for a short while each day to keep the feeling but it's uncomfortable and I have to quit. I hope to be back in competition...

    Improvement

    Find a way to bottle or teach this and you will never need to work a day in your life. What are those differences? Being consciously aware of what they are would be truly enlightening and raise any player a level or more.

    Another big $1,000 entry 600 and under tournament...

    There is another played on 8 footers coming up in Jacksonville iirc. Considered going to that one but I can't get out of town at that time. Maybe 625 or 650 and under though, not 600.

    Mosconi cup times

    Is it televised on SkySports? I have Sky but not DAZN. Curse MR for extorting money from the fans in one country while making it free for all others.

    Another big $1,000 entry 600 and under tournament...

    I see one of our locals in the bracket. Now I have a horse to pull for in this thing. On what size tables is this played?

    Busty calls out The Pearl!!

    True. Physically, Earl has the edge over most any opponent near his age. Mentally, they can give him the 7.

    Busty calls out The Pearl!!

    All I know for sure is I'd like to watch it. I think playing a guy from his generation may motivate Earl to focus on the game and not the atmosphere. Should be good. Hope it goes off.

    Looks like the IRS are having second thoughts on the PayPal issue

    Kalifornians gets to deduct their high state income taxes from the federal, spreading the waste/cost across the country. IIRC, the last guy gpt rid of that BS but the new guy put it back in place from what I read. Maybe he didn't, but that's what I remember reading.

    Another chicken shit “foul”

    Yes. Player who called the foul is a cuck.

    Looks like the IRS are having second thoughts on the PayPal issue

    Theft is theft. Like the entire country subsidizing Kalifornia residents' insane state income taxes. Taxing the wages of the individual was not the original intent but here we are. Anyone who still uses PP after the sh!t they considered doing to their customers regarding DE! deserve what they...

    Best breaker in the MR format?

    You have to give it to FSR and Gorst the past 18 months. That's based on their consistency. Any of the top players can have the best break for a match, a day, even a tournament. Kaci had a tourney earlier this year that was crazy good. Last year when Kazakis beat SVB in the finals of a world...

    When Are You Playing Your Best Pool?

    In a bar after work. At a casino after the state tourney. In Vegas at nationals. At home on my 9 footer alone. There is nothing in common but my mindset.

    Men vs Women

    If you look past whatever advantages or disadvantages one sex has over the other, we still come down to one fact. Men are stealing opportunities that belong to women. You cannot draw a line and claim it's ok for men to compete against women HERE, but not HERE. If a top male HS track athlete...

    Southwest Cue order wait is over

    I hope you love your new cue and use the he77 out of it. I had a custom cue accidentally damaged by a pool hall customer so I leave all of my customs at home -forever. I now play with a Cuetec so I will never again feel that gut punch. Because people suck, I'm afraid any new custom cue I may...

    what's your 9 ball B@R % on your practice table?

    You can play safeties all day, just don't call it "playing the ghost", and don't post results in the "AZB ghost challenge" thread.

    Good for the real HER…..

    Cool, so no examples. That's what I thought. More baseless accusations as well. Typical. Stop quoting me. If you MUST talk to me, send it in a message. Don't use this board as your diary.

    Good for the real HER…..

    Please post up some quotes from me, supporting my anti-gay stance. If you can find one, I'll apologize for it, if warranted. I have also never "gone after" a trans person either -another lie by you. We have a trans-woman at our local pool room. They are always nice to me and are not looking...
