    How would you rule this? Why?

    If I were the first captain playing it like that, I wouldn't have said "I know" after calling the timeout. Put on your best dummy face and say something about "forgetting" that you were out of timeouts, but never give the opponent more reason to think that you're up to something. Thieves who...

    Steroids in pool.

    Not a steroid, but I have at times experimented with the use of a "dietary supplement" called Lucidrol, whose ingredients include the following herbs/compounds: Bacopa Monnieri 500 mg DMAE 250 mg Rhodiola Rosea 200 mg BetaPEA 196 mg Picamilon 100 mg Hordenine 40 mg Piperine 3 mg I've noticed...

    What happens when someone PM's me about his cue...

    My knee-jerk reaction would be to post in the for sale thread. I wouldn't damn the man, but I would let the people reading know that you were informed that it was warped not too long ago, and then give the OP a chance to prove that either it isn't because of some repair or natural movement of...

    What Is Your Pool-Related Superstition ?

    That's the way to call it! If you win, it's "Tails never fails!" and if you lose it's "Tails ever fails..." :p

    Pool Hall Junkies

    Here's the most honest-to-goodness answer I can come up with... The protagonist and the antagonist of the movie have to look, at face value, different from one another. The easiest way to do this is to give one of them a bunch of gimmicks (the instrument case for the cues, the graphite, etc.)...

    Hillbilly "Smack em Hard"

    I watched one of Charlie's explanations of timing on the break on YouTube some years back, and I feel like that one piece of information has greatly improved this aspect of my game. I'm not a big guy (5'9" with the right shoes on and 150lbs wet), but for me to consistently put down a 20mph...

    Riley "Jet" Johnson passed away

    I just let out a very audible "Whoa..." at my work desk. Jet is one of the people I remember most during my time at Red Shoes. He will be missed, by myself and many others I'm sure.

    How do you mean the ring work doesn't match? Do you mean it doesn't line up?

    What is "knocking" someones action??

    I consider knocking to be when a third party not involved in the negotiation of a game comes in and makes a statement or association that negatively affects the game-making process. This could be any kind of declaration of one of the player's speed or past accomplishments, or even just...
