    The One Ball Into the Side Pocket? Really?

They adjusted the rules to keep him fom doing it again

    Diamond Pro-Am Cushion Height?

    Glen, I'm not disagreeing with you I like tight tables but historically the reason tables were designed harder for pros than amateurs was so that people who couldn't play a lick could make balls and think they could play, plus for the coin op tables the easier the table the more games and...

    Cue Case Collection: Fellini, Ann Gore, Engler, Centennial, RT

    The 'Ann Gore' is not an Ann Gore, it was made using Ann's tube but was made on a custom order by a maker of custom executive boxes. He was a master of forming the leather this way. He was found at the furniture show in High Point North Carolina. There were three of these made of similar design.
