    3-3 after that unlucky scratch.

    US Open (9 ball) 2024, August 19-24, Atlantic City

    No argument here but even without the points Oscar should be there. We have seen Oscar play against the world's best over the last 12 months and he's done well with wins over Filler and FSR, who will likely be on the other team. He is THE 4th best we have at the moment and can give Donny the 8...

    I had one of my GCs covered by a guy who attended a training with RKC. He and I did the bed cloth together. It was perfection. I don't remember any stretch marks near the side pockets. The cloth and tension was very uniform. Whoever did that table at the Open was sloppy.

    IMAGINED EVOLUTION of BILLIARD BALLS (1 of 3)

    No elephant beautiful balls? Man they were ugly. Of course if Aramith payed MR enough they would use them fro every event.

    Wut? He made it to the last 64 undefeated. Karl has had to be in the booth for extra shifts and they have been a man short on a few occasions.

    Have you watched the streams from those guys? People are seated close, and all around the table. They're waving their arms around while they are talking, moving, and walking in and out while the guys are shooting. Bugs are flying around the lights, the balls, and the players. There is no way any...

    US Open (9 ball) 2024, August 19-24, Atlantic City

    I watched a short vid from off the rail last night. Emily was saying how she encouraged JJ to play in the Open after he mentioned being interested in giving it a go. He said he had commentary work so he probably shouldn't. Emily told him to go for it I guess but said in the vid that she figured...

    Oscar should be in. Next Shane or Chris, whoever is playing better at the time. Just how I see it.

    Right? I've wished losses on that nit since he pulled the shirt foul BS on Frost. I'm not pulling for that kid ever.

    I was joking, pretty sure we already have Netflix. Not sure why since I get all their shows on my box. Wife must like it.

    Let me guess. Free for the entire world, except America. Viewers in the US will be required to sign up for DAZN to watch. It will also not show up on "trending now" unless you give MR your email address.

    Diamond table poll!

    The Pro-Am looks good and plays great. Many tables look nicer imo, but none play better.

    The smaller pockets are helping the weak players, its very deep and people don't see it.

    It cuts both ways. If I'm playing a lesser skilled opponent, I can run more balls than they can and am therefore favored to win the match. If the pockets are real tight, I am more prone to fail finishing the rack and may leave a few 1-2-3 ball outs. With tight pockets, they still may not get...

    My new favorite diamond color combo

    Saw that color a couple years ago when I was shopping for a new Diamond. The grey is the only color I did not like. It may look at home in a ultra-modern themed home with stainless steel trimmed furniture or an industrial look. Our house is stone with lots of wood inside and that table would be...

    Mike Dechaine giving pool one more shot

    The more the merrier. I wish him the best. Hopefully he'll get his game back and motivate the others.

    SVB withdraws from future WPA events

    I'm happy the players are standing together but I hope the WPA simply changes its stance rather than disappears completely. I do not want MR to control all of professional pool. Having every pro tournament PPV in the US is a sure way to kill the future of the sport here.

    Kamui athlete tip for carbon fiber Shafts anyone using this tip and why?

    I had to ask my milk dud maker to make a special batch of slightly softer tips when I switched to carbon fiber. Admittedly they are not CF specific, but they play a tad softer than his normal recipe. Can't see what would make a tip CF specific.
