    Boston pool rooms.

    Regular? I am a regular! Just not there. I was so regular I even bought one of the tables and took it home! Kind of ironic that an establishment that calls itself World Class doesn't take care of their tables and passes that expense on to the...

    Jump Cue Pet Peeve

    Jumpin! I understand the whole waiting thing most everyone has mentioned. But other than pros and really great players, most folks who jump fail in their effort. I get a little surge of energy knowing things are probably in my favor. And if I do it right ain't nobody jumping nothing! Gotta...

    Special/Reserved Tables?

    Reserved Snooker tables are sometimes reserved for the regular golf players who will be coming in for their daily game. That table will make good money for the house when those 4 or 5 person games are played for hours. They are also usually some of the most regular customers. It is also proper...

    It's going to be a long day!

    The big day. Do what Doc says! The first 24 hours is important as the eye is the fastest healing organ you have. Remember the worse your vision was the more impressed you will be with your results. About two weeks before attempting pool. Good...

    Question for those that did Lasic?

    Rubbing eyes. Might try just wearing some of those clear or yellow shooting glasses during the day. Ask your doc how long the ban on rubbing your eyes will last. Supposedly eyes are the fastest healing organs you have.

    Question for those that did Lasic?

    Lasix Depends how bad your eyes are starting out. The worse the vision the more zapping you get. My eyes were bad so I got a lot. I had big halos around lights at night for at least a year. I waited a week before playing and that was too quick. Two weeks was seeing and hitting em good. Also...

    12 ft. snooker table!!

    760. Don't know what is normal cloth for snooker tables, but everybody likes it. A bigger issue seems to be snooker or pool balls for the golf game. Pool balls go in easier, but to me they would make the pocket smaller. Confusing to me. Cornerman, are you saying snooker game needs a slower...

    Quitting winner.

    Leaving. Thanks Lock. I know what's right and feel like I do others right. People guilt you cause you win and that's not right. In the old days everybody played heads up and no one asked for weight. Don't know when the weight thing became the norm. I only speak of bar room pool with regular...

    Quitting winner.

    Horseracing Lot of truth Joey. Almost any gambling endeavors that are done constantly will result in losses. I have played pool since the mid sixties and have never ever had a year in the red. And most of that was just barroom pool for small stakes, but it adds up over time. Horse racing is...

    Quitting winner.

    Loudmouth bass! Yes, he was a hoot! Just short of five lbs. Caught on ultralight ugly stick with six pound test. Open water thank goodness and he still kicked ass! Caught so many cat fish one time we had to put cat litter in the bottom of the boat! Really!

    Quitting winner.

    The big move! That would work for me but I've known this guy in local leagues for years and don't want to upset his apple cart. I already know I can out gamble him and skill wise we match up pretty good. I would rather take $500 to the racetrack any day. Or buy a gun or put it to the cue Mr...

    Quitting winner.

    Certainly everyone should be given a chance to win back what they lost. To a certain point. To me the point of gambling is someone wins and someone loses. Not a big gambler, never have been. Playing this guy cheap golf. $3 and .25 hickeys. That's about as cheap as it gets! LOL! Win three and...

    You know you're obsessed with pool when...

    Funeral fantasies! I always have these funeral thoughts especially at others funerals! Open caskets not in vogue anymore, but I need my ball in hand in mine. My playing cues leaning on casket and videos (quite popular nowadays) with outrageous trick shots and running racks. I think my buddies...

    Looking for Advice - Beginner in One Pocket

    One hole Play with accomplished players. Take your lumps and learn. Try leaving opp close or frozen to rail. It's easier than it sounds. Practice slow rolling your ball and leaving it deep in the hole. Just like golf it's better to leave one hanging than to make it. They can't get it out cause...
