    Dumbest thing you ever done. (pool related)

    One time after I had finished a relatively long gambling session succesfully, I was goofing around at the table, and the people around seemed to be in a good mood just because lots of money had changed hands on side bets. This one girl wants to play me and for some reason a bunch of people...

    2006 UPA Championship on ESPN today

    I have the feeling that some of the posturing and belittling amongst the players was encouraged by espn to add drama.

    Methods of Applying English

    Fred, I may have misread your post; I thought you were saying that most world beaters use the parallel method as you have described. That I would have to disagree with. I've been to plenty of tournaments, and yes, top players do not keep their cues consistently level. However, when they use...

    Methods of Applying English

    If I understand you correctly Fred, I highly disagree. You are telling me that most worldbeaters basically control how much the ball curves, and are basically slightly masse'ing on every shot? Then why are pros, and worldbeaters I might add, reluctant to shoot english with elevation unless...

    Methods of Applying English

    I cue straight through the ball and you could say I use the parallel method. However, the actual line of the cue when applying english is not parallel to the line that would be used for center ball (otherwise you are not compensating). Compensating for english is not something that needs to...

    What Shot Do You Practice the Most?

    Generally I practice extreme english shots: power draws, power follows, long cuts with lots of inside or outside. The reason is it forces me to get my stroke together fast and gives me a feel for the range of shots I'll be using, and adds confidence.
