    Dress code in tournaments

    My $0.02: I turned on the feed and SVB was at the table. My initial unedited gut reaction was “I thought this was the tournament” and I checked to ensure I had chosen the correct video. When I realized I was indeed watching the right feed, I was surprised and TBH, disappointed. Watching so...

    How long does it take you to feel comfortable at the table?

    Warming up: how long does it take you to feel comfortable at a table, where you feel your stroke is relatively "on"? How long before you are "in stroke"? (I realize these may be two different things but let's just assume "comfortable" roughly equates to "in stroke".) I'm leaving room for "it...

    US Open 08/18-23

    Recent posts attempted to compare pool to other sports. Perhaps a valid comparison to another major spectator sport is golf. I googled it. The percentage of birdies on PGA tour events runs around 15-25% of holes. Also googled World Nineball Tour BnR percentages and recently (Mosconi, World...

    Slow play by pros

    Would the following be feasible? Let the players police it. A player is playing slow, so his/her opponent requests a ref to monitor a few innings. If the ref subjectively (or objectively via hand-timing) determines the player is playing too slowly, he gets a warning and is notified that the...

    What would You do?

    Hmmmm…. I am torn. If it’s someone shooting a purple 5 with a pink-ish 4 that looks a lot like orange (like the f-ing 4-ball looked in person at the Florida Open), yeah, probably would say something. Nah, I would point it out regardless. I will never understand the steadfastness of...

    Break Stats -- 2025 Florida Open (9-Ball), August 2025

    Absolutely. I am amazed at how many successful 1-ball in the side breaks there were. It seems all the players were using the same cut break for the break box/9-on-the-spot racking. 85%! Thanks for the stats, @AtLarge!
