it depends on how u play and how your opponent plays. with 2 players at an intermediate level the wild 8 can be a huge spot, but if u are playing against a monstor then the first thing u want is the break and then try to get as many numbered balls as u can, but that still doesn't mean it's a...

i guess "my eureka moment' was learning less is more. players often disregard "the kiss method" keep it simple stupid!, but in my game it allowed for fewer mistakes which translates into more runouts, better consistency, and provided the basis for "higher gears" in my overall game. during the...

pool room separate from bar area is a problem because in my opinion if you can't have eyes on the tables you are asking for trouble. pool tables aren't like video games or darts. you also didn't mention security and with the separate pool room then you will need someone birdogging the gameroom...

good equipment that is well maintained, and plenty of action with very few nits. I also enjoy a room with plenty of rail birds. the rest of the stuff is just window dressing.

i always like her style and when she hits that high girl she could play at a very high level. she is pretty and classy. nice pic.

your style of play can remain offensive but if u ever want to move up the food chain then u must learn to play safeties but also how to "flip the game" by turning a safety played against u into a mistake by your opponent. I would view that type of safety play as being offensive. a good way to...

Pool is a way of life. I would compare it on the same level as surfers and motorcycle gangs or if those are too strong of an analogies, then golf. In my life of 52 yrs, pool has been a connection to a past that isn't around anymore, old school poolrooms; pool in my younger life was a way to earn...

happy birthday! rackem up!

seen plenty of wolfing in pool rooms but the only fights i have witnessed in a pool room were not pool related but were usually about relationships with men and women and a couple had gun play involved. i saw a pool room owner throw a cue ball at a customer but he didn't hit him so that doesn't...

it happens more than one would like to think. exact same thing happened to me but i didn't buy much equipment but when i would matchup with someone i would spend an easy $50 just on my share of table time, plus when i play the booze and tips would be another fifty. owner and son would ***** and...

congrats, but don't go counting your chicks until u make a habit of beating this guy on a regular basis. good luck.

sad day. he was a good man and he ran a good room.

my simple reply is "... i've sent a bunch of players home busted who think e making that shot is luck... or something like that.

... is never forgotten. that's why u might not remember your wins, but u always remember bad beats. as a result if u are good at gambling then the memory of the losses keeps u sharp until it's time to hang your pole up.

find a straight house cue or cheap sneaky without a wrap. get one with the proper weight and diameter u like and just play and have fun. practice your pre-shot routine, keep it simple like three strokes and shoot. get as low to to the cue ball as possible and/or comfortable. don't worry about...

i always try to make the one in the side on all breaks (8,9, and 10 ball) when i'm feeling "it." but when i'm not, which is most of the time, i go for a real smooth hard break and try to place the cue ball in the center of the table. the placement of the cue ball on the break is far more...

does anybody believe that there is anything OTHER than these three responsible for setting the cue ball in motion? What are they? What is YOUR opinion? let's see ... a player with a cue or broom or whatever strikes the cue ball. i believe that would set "the cueball in motion."

orange crush?

nobody wants to take the decision i offer, but here goes ... if the current holder of the cue bought the cue in good faith and this appears to be the case, then offer to split the $1300 and return the cue to it's rightful owner who i'm pretty sure he would have paid $650 to get his cue back no...

sounds like u need to quit and go play with the bigger boyzs. otherwise embrace the "mike Tyson image" and just rip everyone. sooner or later someone will beat u and u will still be like "Mike Tyson now": just another banger trying to just get by. as for the prostitute equivalent; i haven't a...
