    When you dream about pool...

    It's the same for me. The funny thing is that I'm very frustrated in those dreams, like I know that it's all messed up but I'm still trying to play well and win. Once I was playing snooker on a huge table that ended up being in the middle of the street, at ground level and there was traffic...

    Since you asked

    They invite the past Masters champions to play until they elect not to themselves. That's a major golf tournament. I remember (I think) way back when Bjorn Borg wanted to come back and play one of the majors he was told he would have to qualify and he declined. I personally believe there...

    Best action in Denver area???

    Well too bad Colorado Cue Club closed not too long ago. I think you have to go way further north to get to Match Ups in Ft. Collins. You're only 30 minutes from Rackem or Table Steaks South. I would try Table Steaks first if you're looking to play someone. I think they are having the 9 bal...

    Rackem and Table Steaks South. What kind are you looking for, 9ball, 1pocket? How high?

    What have people been flat out wrong about?

    I had a local guy here (a very strong player, I can't beat him) tell me very matter of factly: "If you could see in slow motion, almost every bank is actually double kissed". I couldn't even respond. I came to find out later that he had all kinds of misconceptions in his head but somehow he...

    Pool table app for iphone

    Can someone please create a pooltable app for the iphone? You know, something that would allow us to diagram shots on the iphone much like the wie table on here but where you can move the balls around by touch. It would be cool if it could link up to the wie table online, etc. etc. Maybe it...

    My VNEA 2009 tournament experience (late and very long)

    You mean that qualifier? I didn't play in that. I played there Friday night though. It was a zoo with all the poker players there.

    My VNEA 2009 tournament experience (late and very long)

    Not on the team that won. Maybe on the team that took third but I don't know for sure.

    My VNEA 2009 tournament experience (late and very long)

    Just saw this, the team consisted of "Bristol" Bob Begey, Chris Onesky, Shawn Halleck, Peter Mercaldi and myself.

    My VNEA 2009 tournament experience (late and very long)

    First, let me start off by saying that I've only played in the VNEA tournament once before and that was only because I was invited to play on a strong masters team as a last minute addition (We did great and took fouth and I played my best pool ever). I usually play in the BCA tournament. This...

    Cues in cars

    I've posted this a bunch of times but I leave my Southwest in my car pretty much 100% of the time. It's never warped in 8 years. I used to leave a Josey sneaky pete in the car for a long time too, and a Mcdermot before that. They never warped. I have had a Madison Bob cue warp that I was...

    One pocket shot what do you do?

    Dave (12squared) did a nice job of trying to smooth this thing over but I have to say, after going back and reading all of the posts, I'm a bit confused as to why Eddie reacted to Niel the way he did. I think Niel was not out of line by posting what he felt about cutting the 13. That shot can be...

    Agree 100%

    One pocket shot what do you do?

    Good point about the pockets. A lot comes down to how you're feeling at the moment too. Loved your books by the way.

    One pocket shot what do you do?

    I hear ya, but I'm shooting the 4 two rails all day. With just a little bit of cue ball control you put him in a very defensive position. If you make the fairly easy bank (as far as 2 railers go), you probably win the game. That's why I love this game, there are lots of ways to get it done.

    alternate shaft wood, something harder than maple?

    Yeah that's what I was afraid of. I guess I'll go get a cuetec shaft to put on my Southwest. lol.

    alternate shaft wood, something harder than maple?

    Does anyone know if there are shafts out there that are made out of wood but resistant to dings? Maybe something like what the Diamond tables are made out of?

    Heard a rumor

    No, the Colorado Cue Club was open for just under 5 years. Now I think the only true "pool halls" left in and around Denver are Table Steaks South and Rackem'.
