That sounds like the kind of person the US needs representing us instead of the time bomb so many people love to see go off and embarrass the team. I don't think a player should be called great if they can't control their emotions. There are so many great players who let their game do their...

Trip report Thanks for your insight and the report on your DCC trip. I've got to go to the DCC one year. I keep saying I want to go, but something comes up every year and I haven't made it there yet.

We think the same way on this subject. I couldn't take a guys last dollar so I rarely gamble unless I know the guy can afford to lose what we are playing for. If he's trying to win my money I should try to win his!

I can't imagine a time I'd consider a roll out if I had ball in hand any where on the table. If the layout looked that bad try to play a killer safety and win on the three foul rule. Your opponent is already on one for scratching and if you can lock him or her up well enough they'd be on two...

Pool has been a big part of my life especially ever since I bought a table and was able to practice at home. I also got into cue collecting and i've bought and sold quite a few cues which has been a fun addition to my pool playing hobby. I guess I wouldn't trade my pool experiences for almost...

I've always been overly protective of my cues not wanting to get a nick on any of them and to hear someone broke a classic like this is unbelievable (if it wasn't an accident).

RIP Bill I have an Accu-stats match with Bill and Jimmy Mataya doing the commentary and he seemed like an easy going person who loved pool.

Thanks for the photos from all of us who aren't there. What a match up Shane vs Dennis!

Thanks for the report.....I've got to make it there next year!

Jay won't put up with Earl's tricks anymore and Earl got the message.

Nobcitypool I agree with you about Earl.

Other Players Paying Attention! I play in a weekly local 9 ball league and the room we play in is full of 7’ bar tables. The tables aren’t bad and they’ve just been recovered with Simonis cloth, but there isn’t a lot of extra room between the tables. For some reason when I’m playing my...

Can anyone give a reason why Diamond is pushing 10' tables other than they wan t to make money selling them. I tried playing on a 10' table and I didn't enjoy it. 9' tables are perfect for me and you wouldn't think an extra foot would make much difference, but it does.

I think they should use the standard colored balls since we have HD video. They switched to TV balls before the video improved to what we have today and I don't think we need all the confusion with the TV ball colors anymore. Go back to the original colored balls!

Well said if you use Super glue. If the tip is the same size as the ferrule it's almost impossible to get it perfectly centered before the glue sets.

I wish call shot was the standard and also you can't win if the 9 ball goes in one of the two corners behind the rack on the break. Take some of the luck out of the game.......

With the new video clarity I don't see the need for TV balls anymore either.

A loss is something in the past and can't be changed. The sooner you can put that out of your mind and move on the better player you will be. I've lost some matches that have haunted me for days thinking about what I could have done to change the outcome, but it didn't make any difference I...

Have you thought about a Samsara J/B tip? I've tried a lot of combinations for my break cue including a White Diamond tip and for me I'm sold on the Samsara tip.

Those are some killer matches......man would I love to be there live!
