You have a ping-pong table and a poker table at work? I'm officially jealous.

Regarding the standard maple v LD shaft issue? Now I know it's the indian, not the arrow....in fact I have 2 LD shafts that don't often get out of my case. I was just curious what shaft the instuctors choose for themselves. Can you share?

Gene it's surprising to me that someone of your ability/experience level can realize such a dramatic improvement from your new toy. I tried them for several years but don't currently use them. I hope they continue to work well for you.

Haha, I couldn't have done any worse if I had played left-handed. :sad:

Nice way to start the week winning the banks ring game!

Anyone know what the final outcome was?

Haha, After I typed this I went downstairs to hit some balls. After about 45 minutes I wasn't happy with my play, so I switched to my LD shaft....and like magic I quit rattling balls and was able to get better CB position too. What can I say Gulyassy makes a great LD shaft that is easy for me...

I agree with these thoughts. I also seem to have better CB contol with my standard shafts. Although, I still use my LD shafts sometimes. I find that when I'm not playing regularly I play at a higher level with LD shafts. But, when I'm playing regularly I play better with standard shafts. I...

My wife and sons got me Confessions of a Pool Hustler and my boss gave me a gift certificate for Muellers. I plan to dive into the book later today, and I can't wait!

Thanks Matt. I figured some would cash, just hoping someone can post details of names & places they finished. Inquiring minds want to know. :) I'm really bummed that I couldn't make it out to support the tourney, but it simply wasn't in the cards this time. So, I'm left with living...

Did any of the locals cash in either event?

Nice shooting. I enjoy watching these kinds of videos, but they always remind me how pathetic I really play.

Did anyone play in the new Sat night 10-ball at Styx this week? Just wondering how many players they got and how smoothly it went. I'm hoping to play in either the Friday night tourney at BD's or this new one at Styx this week. I think the wife owes me a tourney night after a weekend of her...

Does anyone know if the exhibition will be open for all ages, or is it on the 21+ side?

Great article Samm! You asked the right questions, and Chris gave some great straight-forward answers. Very good read. Thanks for posting the link Joey.

Ugh. I was hoping to play this coming Sunday night (since I can sleep in Monday), but sticky/sweaty pool isn't that fun for me. How bad is it in there?

I think they make a great team. They are informative & entertaining. It's interesting how different the 2 of them can see the table/correct shot sometimes. I think Billy almost pissed himself when Scott said he was going to chase down Earl for a post-match interview. :eek:

So does this mean your "concealed weapon" post was a farse?
