    Frost vs Orcollo - $200,000 One Pocket Match Video

    I'm near the end.Been watching for 4 or 5 nights. This is a somewhat foolish thing to say, but I don't think 1 pkt. can be played any better than what these 2 guys have done. The old Ronnie Allen v Diliberto match used to be my fave...no longer I'm afraid. My god...Orcollo is a monster...

    Cornhole gets great niche "sport" ratings on ESPN and now strives for entry into the Olympics games :(

    I could sit thru 30 min. of championship frisbee, but not even one min of Cornhole.

    Rich cue

    Whenever I'd go to Palace billiards in SF, the showcase of cues for sale always had several Rich models, and I'd stand there and drool.

    Cochrans in San Franciso, some of their Best Players!

    Anybody remember this older guy who played at the palace in the 70's....he was obviously a weigh-lifter, because at the balance point of his cue there was a circular steel weight that must have weighed 3-5 lbs. and twice the diameter of the butt. He seemed to play okay.

    Anybody want to play Alex….

    I'm better at long, straight-ins shooting one handed on the rail. Can't understand it... maddening.

    Is there such a thing as natural talent? Some say yes, I do not think there is?

    I'd be surprised if Efren ever had to devote anywhere near the amount of time on stroke fundamentals as anyone else, in other words naturally talented.

    JS Pro Golfer?

    Gotta be a reason you see pretty much the same guys on the tour year after year while many, many are trying to join the most desirable club in the world... untold riches for doing what comes easy for these pros.

    Longer cues

    I had a Palmer with 7 shafts of different lengths, from 57.5 to 61". Kept forcing the issue with the longer lengths, because the length felt so natural, but eventually I'd always come back to the 57.5".

    What cues did the HOF'ers use?

    I was wondering if anyone knows anything about the cue Efren used for a while when he first arrived in the U. S.

    One Pocket is so slow....

    Tournaments use a time clock to penalize "fast" play.

    Many players who don't miss.

    No disrespect, but if I had to play any pro for my life, naturally with a spot, I'd want to play Hopkins.

    Many players who don't miss.

    Is it me or have the last 2 years seen rise to a large number of young "monsters" with long strokes who seem to shoot straighter than the average pro.
