You need a better music collection.

Thanks for the info. Shame I missed it, sounds like I was a lock to win it with all those lightweights banging balls around :D

I was planning on going and didn't make it down there, can anyone tell me who won the Joss Tour Hall of Fame tourney at Snooker's in RI? Any big names show up? Just want to know what I missed.....

I take it obverse is synonymous with reverse english. The term is not in common usage, and if the person you spoke to had strong opinions about the meaning he is most likely mistaken.

I feel like you and Florian Kohler are redefining artistic pool.

Mark Maryo from Cleveland Ohio put the beat down on many a top-name player in the 80s and early 90s. Was a great gambler and had heart to boot.

Love his stroke.......looks very simple and effective, and lets him play great.

You probably don't remember which worked best because there would not be a big difference between the two. The truth is you need your dominant eye to be able to focus on both the cueball and object ball to line up the shot. Your non-dominant eye supplies additional spatial information about...

Didn't realize it, definitely played him for dough not that long ago....

King Hester if you are in the northeast I'd be happy to wager with you playing marty.

I would also recommend World Class. West of the city in Waltham there is Waverly Oaks/Corner pocket, a nice room full of Gold Crowns, but it is a bit of a travel. In Cambridge near MIT there is Flat Top Johnny's.

Fundamentals are in place to help you achieve certain goals when executing a shot, such as staying still, stroking on the line of the shot, striking the cueball precisely, and hitting through the ball with an accelerating stroke. All of these things can be accomplished with any imaginable...

I couldn't find any info on the forums about Stalev's reappearance at this year's dcc. Can anyone give an update on how he did? He seems to have finished in the running with the big names. Is he still playing as sharp as we remember him? Was he in action this year? Any info would be...

I ran into Billy Lana a while ago, class act and great old-school style player. Glad to see him up there.

I regularly practice all games, and am left wondering, why doesn't 8-ball get the respect it deserves? It involves the planning of rotation games with the break shots of straight pool and the crafty safety play of one-pocket. After playing 10-ball extensively and switching to 8-ball, I was...

Concentrate on getting you're elbow, shooting hand, bridge hand, and head on the line of the shot before getting down, then keep them on that line as you get into your stance and get your body out of the way. If you use the line of the shot as reference you will know that all the elements are...

He left himself too little angle on the 7. Following two rails is not easier than drawing, since you must contend with a possible side pocket scratch, and the first rail is close enough to the pocket to cause concern (hitting the point and getting an inconsistent rebound). Some players use a...
