Normally a bit more agressive break than the ordinary opening shot. Some shot on the third ball, some on the fourth. Various teories on the subject..

They break, no ball in hand, try to run as many balls in one pocket as possible. Maximum 15 - I believe they get 5 tries, so a possible 75..

I purchased the Accustats PPV from the Derby, watching Alex vs Efren right now playing banks. Two things: 1. I cant find any chat for this. If there really is no chat available, thats somewhat disappointing. Interacting in the chat and betting is more than half the fun. 2. The commentators...

Haha, that was funny. Thanks Justin. Scooters has a point with the neutral racker issue..

This is great Eric. You are obviously addicted :wink: and love pool. Keep it up!

Actually I believe there are multiple winners. One poster was spamming the main forum with new threads when the forum got close to the 1 million mark. The moderator deleted all the threads and probably banned the user(?) So 1 mill posts was probably reached multiple times that day:wink:

trustyrusty said it all. You should have been smart enough to offer the weight before he decided to leave

Top three in US Open were Mika, Ralph and Donny Mills. Donny posts here, and I am sure he could enlighten us if he wanted. The problem is that players, regardless if its US Open, Makabentas 10ball championships or the IPT, normally are afraid to go public with anything and step on the promoters...

Eeeh, because America is still a part of the world, as in World Pool Association? Or do you believe that USA should run their own show in pool, independent of what happens in the rest of the world? I believe americans were strongly involved in the making of the new 10-ball rules, and luckily...

The 10 ball only count if you called it. If you call the 10-ball, make the 5-ball and misses the 10-ball, your inning ends (Why? Failed to call the pocketed ball..) If you call both balls, make the 5-ball and misses the 10-ball, your inning ends. (Why? You called the 10-ball, failed to pocket...

I wouldnt duck here. IMO there are three realistic ways to run out here, depending on the size of the pockets and how well you know the table. 1. Tight pockets and not so familiar with the speed of the table: Make the 7, slow roll the cue ball a few inches forward, position for banking the...

1. Correct 2 and 3. Why on earth would you do that? Nobody is foolish enough to reduce their chances by calling two balls instead of one. You should only pick one.

Mike. If you are referring to the WPA rules, then your assumption in red is wrong. Its correct that if you call a safety and makes a ball, your opponent has a choice to put you back in, but if you miss and hook your opponent (and doesnt make another object ball), he still has to shoot.

Hmmm, Christine de la Garza just posted on facebook that they are setting up tables inside in the hotel / conference center and continue there. Lets hope they can finish the tournament. Shot clock / shorter races / whatever it takes.

I would suggest that you also produced short sleeve shirts with a collar. I know that the TAR guys are concerned about style and fashion, and IMO it just looks better with a collar.. More important: Many tournaments require shirts with a collar, that way we can promote TAR also when we play...

Yes, I played Satman in the AZ room. We were just practising, but after watching him bank, I didnt feel like gambling with him, even if he had asked..

I will take one, size L. Just give it to Roy Steffensen at DCC, he can transport it back to Norway.. Hopefully he will pay for the shirt also.

They have the same kind of racking device that they use in WC 10 ball in Manila. The material is the same as film - negatives. For those who remember the old days - before digital photos..:cool:

Haha, love the comments to that clip, read all..

I would say keep it. This chalk is good, sticks better to the tip, and leaves less mess on the cloth. Huge difference to the new Master, where the cloth, table, and hands get very dirty from all the "powder" falling of the chalk. Much more work for the guys cleaning the tables in the pool...
