    Anyone watch any of Raymond Linares' matches at Derby City?

    Among his victims...Filler, Lucas Verner, Shane Wolford, others. Against Filler he only missed 2 balls. And people say his game is improving.

    9 ball & 10 ball too easy for tourneys?

    If so what games should replace them... rotation..8 ball..6 ball..15 ball (same as 9 ball rules).

    One foot on the floor rule.

    I could swear that at one time referees could award a foul to a player who in the process of assuming a difficult stance he momentarily had both feet off the floor, even just for a second. Not during his stroke, just trying to get a comfortable shooting position. This scenario happens often...no...

    Cue Price/Quality threshold... Aesthetics?

    I've heard about his "$10" cue, but if that refers to the one seen in many of Efren's earliest videos, that is no $10 cue.

    Nice but fake

    A lot of those shots I've never seen before and are pretty damn cool.

    Best and worst commentator??

    Daniel can't keep his mind on the match, talks a little to much...boringly, gets the score wrong often.

    Is Shaw considered the supreme 'middle o' pocket' potter?

    My pick would be Efren. 4 1/8" pockets are more prevalent now, but has anyone seen competition on tighter? I'd love to see Shaw, SVB, Filler, Gorst, and Efren play on 3" pkts.

    Best and worst commentator??

    Nick Varner. Worst. His co-comm. will say something mildly amusing and Varner will let out this loud laugh that could be heard in the next county. Nevertheless his expertise is welcome. Faves...J.J, Freezer, Richie Granier, diLiberto, except for his many mistakes about balls going in. Sky...

    Just a passing comment about cue making vids on Youtube.

    Entertaining and relaxing to those of us who appreciate craftsmanship. Check out Studiotronics especially.

    An Efren forum?

    I gotcha, but a book, lol. My mother had to write my themes and term papers in high school (which she loved to do], and me researching all over the place for Efren stuff? Man, me lazy bro.

    An Efren forum?

    Little things like....does he ever get bored after millions (?) of shots, what exactly is his visual acuity, what do doctors say about the pain that seems to somewhat plague him in the shoulder some time, exactly how good is his chess game, etc.

    Efren going to DCC 2024?

    Sure hope so. Who wouldn't want to see a 95 yr. old man giving one pocket lessons to all comers?

    Anyone have a hard time listening to Scott Frost in the MC?

    I have not a single complaint about Frost.

    why do pros aim so low on the cue ball at cue ball address???

    In my opinion, if you want to hit center ball on the cb, and you aim center cb, your tip can wander slightly off center,and you might not notice it, but if you aim center bottom you will easily notice if the tip wanders off.

    Bridge length, has something changed?

    Check out vids of Buddy Hall. I doubt you'll find anyone with a shorter bridge.

    No safeties in nine ball

    True, but I have stopped watching 9 ball, because it's too slow...every other shot is a safe, even hittable ones. Give me 1 shot shootout(I think that's the name)...call safety or you get bih on a miss.
