100%. I had a Samsara last and the thing delaminated almost immediately. I rarely break hard and it still fell apart. Switched to the SAI and it's been awesome. It's shown no wear, i haven't had to shape/scuff it, and the grip and energy transfer are amazing. I play 10b with a template mostly...

This shot was ridiculous. You need to absolutely PURE the cue ball.

I've had Kamui Softs last a few years. Break tips usually fail on me before they wear out. I've settled into the Kamui Clear Black hard and love it. They're not really gonna wear out, but I just had one fail. Left the clear pad and 1 layer of leather behind... Overall with layered playing tips...

It was threaded for the original bumper, but it's not the same thread. Close enough to tap though.

I like Alex, but if there's no clock he's unbearable to watch. He had a match on the TV-adjacent table earlier this year where the TV table played almost 2 rack while his table was still on the same BALL... Unreal. Commentators were even joking about it.

When Chezka is on she's one of the scariest players out there. You blink and all the balls are gone...

I've never seen a 10b tournament around here (MSP). 10b with no early 10s is definitely not a game for beginners for your reason. I've been a perfect example of that logic lately: run 6-7 balls and leave my buds with the last 2-3 when i dog the 7-9... BUT i'm a glutton for punishment and we...

Ugh... Why is everyone trying to turn 10b into 9b? We have both and that's great, don't make them converge... Want fast action and high risk/reward? 9-ball. Want a more deliberate, tactical game? 10-ball. Simple as that.

I think the biggest issue for Shane and Fedor is they don't get enough table time. They're marathoners. Get them settled in and they'll start doing damage. But that's not the way the Cups work. I'm blown away by these rosters... I would have expected Manas to be on the team in a few years, but...

"Since when did you play 8-ball?" "He's giving me 4 balls off the break." "4 balls off the break is the biggest hustle in the world. You're just getting your balls out the way so he can shoot em..." (Couldn't resist :ROFLMAO:)

Was thinking they kinda look like Shane's noggin... :ROFLMAO:

Yup!

Sounds like the prefect case for some soft rubber sheets.

That is absolutely a Professional. Couldn't be anything else. Diamond logo, rack hanger, drop pockets, foot location.

I reached out to them and never heard anything back. I'll have to stop by sometime, but I'm on the other side of MSP.

I hear that so much. Even my old man says he paid for his books playing (which is more believable). I played a few hours a day in college, made no money and....my grades certainly showed it...😬

I've been trying to get a quote and lead time for a 9' Diamond Professional for install next summer in the MSP area and have not gotten responses or been ghosted by the couple I found. Anyone know a good dealer in the MN/WI area that does good installs and is easy to work with? Also out of...

That is EXACTLY the table i want...

Not that price range, but I leave my SVB in the truck full time. Breaks better than any playing cue I've touched. Prefer my Predators, but it works when I don't have my case with me.
