I was out in Vegas in October and visited it. They just moved the location on the Strip south just past Mandalay Bay. I'll be out again in June for the BCA trade show and will visit it again. Doesn't cost to enter and most of the games are set at .25 to play. Definitely worth checking out if you...

Decent bowler when I was younger 200 avg or so. Not so much with darts. Play a mean game of Galaga tho!

Sounds like she is decelerating her cue. Have her work on the transition of the hit swing by slowing down the final pull back (think drawing an arrow in a bow) to a stop then accelerate to a natural finish. Use a hole reinforcement to mark where her follow through should end on a medium to hard...

Seen this movie before and it didn't end well. The biggest problem is that pool doesn't draw a paying crowd or big enough crowd that advertisers take notice. It's simple economics, always has been and always will be. If the PPPA overplays their hand then tournament opportunities will dry up...

I think Derby initially began with the Johnston City tournaments in mind. Bringing players together for the tournaments but the real heart and soul was the action that was created by the collection of players. Over the years, it has morphed into a more about professional pool raising the race to...

Heard the good news and saw the updates on Facebook. The Mo AM State 9 ball my favorite tournament of the year.

One thing I like about what Matchroom is doing is reaching out and working with other promoters of top events. In the past it's been my way or the highway approach but now there is a sense of working together. Eventually being a professional will be well defined and something that players will...

Same thing here in Missouri. There was a "very" small town next to one of the casino's that was a shortcut to the casino thru "town". They had 2 new police cars and a trailer for court. The "city" has maybe 20 residents but 2 full time police officers and judge. The state eventually stopped them...

Yeah I was being facetious.

There have been a few celebs that have been pretty solid with the cue. As others have stated, it takes a lot of time to become good at pool. Jerry Orbach (Actor) and Mark Kendall (Great White) were pretty close to 100 ball runners in straight pool. But, to be even semi pro, you need to put in a...

I was referring to Billy Thorpe in which Earl posted on social media that Billy received a 2 year ban from the WPA and that's the reason he wasn't considered for the Mosconi Cup.

The silver lining is that the monetary loss for 2 year ban of a professional pool player is what? 28k? Where 3 games of pro basketball player might be 500k. Seriously, 2 years is pretty harsh for a substance such as Mary Jane. Hate to admit it but I agree with Earl, ban him for the Mosconi cup...

I'm not sure if you are using top 100 Fargo or the WPA top 100? I've been lucky to beaten a few albeit it was on the bar box in tournaments. Cory Duel, Danny Olson, and Sharik Sayed on the current top WPA 100. As far as Fargo, there have been many most notable Justin Bergman but again this on...

Will, get well soon my friend!

My favorite tournament of the year. RIP MO AM State 9 ball.

I'll give the reason that I played in the 2010 US Open. It was a bucket list tournament that I had no realistic chance of winning. But like Jay said earlier, due to the deep payouts I might have a chance to cash. The tournament at that time was 500 entry but to go and watch was going to cost...

Cues sold........Thanks

Get off my lawn!

Don't know either of them but "Bonerack" is a cool moniker.

I would have talked to the league operator when he went from a 6 to a 7. There is no justification for that unless someone complained and the league operator manually moved him to a 7. Check to see if he has a fargo rating, I'm guessing not if he doesn't play but maybe he is a road player in...
