Both Sigel and Varner won over $100k USD in a single year for tournament winnings in the late 80’s. The 100th ranked golfer at the time also had won over $100K USD in those years as well.

I’ve won over 100 tournaments myself, but 75 of them had to be one game double elimination eight ball tournaments on week nights. I don’t think counting those really means much. I got a note that said, Nick Varner believes Kim Davenport has won more nine ball tournaments than anyone else in...

Easy there. Both Rodney and I are from that area, and historically the APA players from there that have gone to Las Vegas have been accused of being underrated. Plus Roy is a Master Instructor in the area, so there has been an increase in average skill level for North Worcester County. Any...

James is listed as a 658 with 2000 robustness.

This is in Fitchburg, MA at my old stomping grounds. James Chirco is a good local player, but not going to be hitting the pro tour any time soon. I never actually saw him in any tournament that I played, and we lived in the same area. It's nice to see some people I know having fun playing...

I have two (2) spectator tickets for the final day, in case anyone was looking for a couple.

Can’t make it, so my loss is your gain. $100 each. Preference to posters buying both tickets.

I'm actually more suprised longtime player hadn't come into the situation sooner. I grew up in Massachusetts. Played in a Student Union at UMass Amherst (same as poolbum and VIProfessor), and it didn't have windows and certainly no air conditioning. When it got humid in there or any bar, I...

It is absolutely true in the pool industry, unfortunately, from fits and tolerances (or lack thereof) to safety measures around standalone, automated processes.

You know it’s Lucite? (Okay, that’s a loaded question, meant to trap)

Yes and yes.

Yes and yes.

Not a Sneaky Pete by any definition.

I’ve never had success with gloves that the finger tips weren’t cutoff.

There are cuemakers that absolutely are the experts to go to. The challenge is that there are a thousand people callilng themselves cuemaking experts that frankly aren't experts. We've had many on these boards that still get the occassional joke slung about. And then there are people on these...

For @lfigueroa and for those that aren't on Facebook: An interesting collection of gloves. No, these arent all of them, but they represent a good history. The first one from the top left is a Blakeman glove, which was just stretchy Spandex-like mateial. Good but not great. But I liked it...

I’ve been wearing a glove since the late 80’s, starting with the Blakeman glove. I only wore it during the summer in New England when they didnt have air conditioning in the bars or pool halls. I own so many glove brands (including the unglove) as you can imagine, and just about every case has...

Not only did I break a few on the break, i broke one on a regular cut shot!

It is not part of the playing surface because the playing surface is clearly defined already. No need to guess or redefine. The playing surface does not include the rails. Nose to nose is the definition. The 9 x 4 1/2” are only nominal dimensions like a 2 x 4. The closest 9’ measurement...
