Geez Spetty. Sorry for your loss. I never seen a dead one before. :p

That ain't Joe Rogan. That's Earl Strickland. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4G0Gx8suAQs

I once played in a place in Mississippi where there was a guy who walked the floor with an ax handle. They told me he was the bouncer. Don't remember where it was. That was High Pockets in Memphis where Louie used to play. Before that he was in the Golden Cue.

I used to have one of those. I signed up and paid the fee right before the whole thing disappeared. Some tournaments like the Memphis Open had Pro and Amateur events. The entry fees for the Pro event was $500 while the Amateur side was only $20. You wouldn't expect to see Thorsten Holman...

Then why was it called the Seminole Pro Tour?

I can't believe no one has posted this. I think it is the same for golf and other sports. Not sure. If you enter a pro event and you place in the money, ie. you get paid, you are designated a pro and are no longer eligible to enter any amateur event. This is permanent. You cannot go back to...

Banking with the Beard and Banks that don't go but do, books and DVD, by Freddy Bentivegna in my opinion are the definitive works on the subject. Enough information in there to keep you busy for years. They are a must have as a starting point if you want to understand how banks work.

I agree. I listed mine in the for sale section here back then for $3500 because that is what I saw others going for at the time.

The correct eye is the one you naturally use regardless of which one is stronger. Take you alignment from the position of the ghost ball not the actual object ball position. Even if you don't use the ghost ball to aim, always use the ghost ball the align the shot because no matter what aiming...

Not a problem. Many players do this. I had a lesson from Rodney Morris on this same subject. It is just simple adjustment in your stance. My right handed stance for example, if I shoot using my right eye in the dominant position, the line of my stick is over the bottom of the shoelaces...

I do. Back in 2011, I got laid off and had to move out of my apartment. I made an appointment with Wes, a month in advance with him to move my Diamond ProAm into storage. I had to give 30 days notice to terminate my lease. Moving day came and I was all moved out except for the table and...

That actually used to be in the rule book. Back in the 70s or maybe early 80s. I remember it. I bought one every year back then. If you had an unobstructed shot at the 8 ball and you missed making contact it was a scratch and loss of game. That was before the ball in hand days.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS BAR RULES. There are the rules and there is some bullshit some half drunk non-playing loser nit made up to try and get another shot or avoid outright losing. It is also this same bunch of knuckle dragging mouth breathers that coined the term "slop" as in "oh you play...

I always played base of the ball, which is the same as the center. It is the most accurate and sensible way in my opinion. Using the logic of the line is on the table and the base of the ball is the only part that can touch it. So measure from there whether the ball is in front of or behind...

I have tried many different kinds. These old dust devils are the best I found. They're cheap too. They have a rotating bar but you can take it out by removing a single screw.

As long as I have been playing there are only two styles of play and they are agreed upon at the start of a match. Touch fouls on the cue ball only or touch fouls on any ball. There is a story about UJ Puckett Grady Matthews used to tell. UJ was in a match, touch fouls on the cue ball only...

That's what I'm playing with. 30 inch ex-pro. Just put the 2 inch extension on the butt.

Couple of ways to do it. If you are below the rack the corners go crosside. High english is required. Touch of inside also but varies. If you are above rack the corners go straight back. Tougher shot in my opinion. I would rather be below shooting the crosside if I had a choice. I'm...

It used to be in the rules that your opponent has to call a foul or it is not a foul. I use the golf definition of a ball moving. If a ball is at rest in place and after the shot the ball is resting in a different place then it has moved. If it is still in the original place it did not move...

I wasn't sure so I did a quick search and found this. It is this year. He played the Wyoming open. So he is still traveling to tournaments. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5EREw5UdrRs
