    Looking For A Copy of Play Your Best Straight Pool

    Bebob Publishing When I started looking for the book, I too found it used for hundreds of dollars. I found it new for $24.95 at http://www.bebobpublishing.com. I have done business with Bob Henning at Bebob in the past and never had a problem.

    How has 14.1 improved your overall pool game?

    I agree with all the previous comments as well. Especially the comment about bridging over balls, etc. It comes up so often, that it helps develop that skill. I believe improvement in one's (ball-making) consistency is inevitable after playing 14.1 for some time. To know that if you miss and...

    70 Ball Run

    Great run Nice run Mike. I'm glad you only put 42 on me last month. You really got yourself out of a lot of tough situations. Besides butchering some easy shots, that's where I tend to have the most difficulty. You tackled that cluster on the side rail really well. Keep posting video. I...

    run stoppers

    Backward cut on the break ball I too am not a fan of long shots which sometimes kill my run, but it's really the backward cut shots on the break shot that do me in. I find myself either preserving or manufacturing a good break ball almost every rack, but if I'm just a little less than parallel...

    Rack'ems Handicap 9-Ball 2-13-10*Lewisville,Tx*$500 Added Guaranteed*1/4 Field Paid

    Great Tournament Thanks for a great tournament, Zach! You kept it running smoothly considering the 52 player field on only 6 tables. I was 3 and out, but all 3 matches went hill-hill and I had a good time.

    Now I'm certain The Hustler is a fiction

    Long races and long sessions When a friend comes by to shot, we'll usually start off with a race-100 in 14.1 and I'll spot him 25. It's a pretty close match. It usually takes about an hour and a half. Then we'll switch to 9-ball; usually races-5. We might play anywhere from 5 or 6 races on...

    Unfortunately, no The link to the page you list has no mention of WPA. It mentions World-Standardized Rules.

    This is what happened in my match tonight

    Don't see links They do appear to be the WPA rules. However, the link to the page you refer to above has links to pdfs for each section and not to any part of the wpa-pool.com site. I actually interested in finding an archived news posting say, "BCA is now adopting WPA rules effective...

    This is what happened in my match tonight

    My last post too Sorry for hurting your feelings. I wasn't rambling, just pointing out some interesting rule differences. They might not be the latest and greatest rules or the WPA rules, but I followed the rules as dictated by our league manager. I would suspect the forum would agree that I...

    This is what happened in my match tonight

    Still learning . . . It's never come up before in one of my matches. I've never seen it when watching pro matches. And when I originally read the 3-foul rule, and didn't have to apply it for almost a year, I mistakenly remembered it to mean ball in hand in the kitchen shooting at a full rack...

    This is what happened in my match tonight

    Looking forward to our next match I accept your apology. Though it sounds like you're still a bit sour . . . My foul last season was a three foul situation. I can send you the score sheet if you'd like. The way I remembered it was that I didn't know for sure if I had to drive two plus the...

    This is what happened in my match tonight

    You sure surprised me . . . I’ve always said and still believe that not only are you a great pool player, but you are also a great ambassador for the sport. Your genuine love of the game and willingness to share your knowledge is what I respect about you most, because that’s how I feel too...
