    Straight Pool Scoring Apps

    I just purchased the Straight Pool Deluxe. I really like it. Very easy to learn how to use. One complaint: There is no way to correct spelling on a opponent name or to delete an opponent from the Opponent List.

    You can't help most people get better at pool.

    Straightpool_99.... Really a good post. I have seen players in my BCA Master League play the same as they played 20 years ago... No improvement at all in their game. Good players but that is all, just good. You state that trying to give them a hint... I found out no matter what I would say or...

    My first video share (100 balls w/12 misses)

    Why in the world would you alter the pockets on that beautiful table?.... Altering equipment, that is what it is.... In its history Brunswick they have never put out pockets like that on any of their tables. Tables are manufactured to play a certain way. A good 14.1 player learns how to play all...

    Reading that Mosconi thread on the main page made me think

    I know for a fact that Mosconi did not like 9 ball but would play it when Road Players came into his town. I was told this by Leroy Kinman who was a very close personal friend of Mosconi's. Leroy told me that Willie always left the Road Players enough money in their pockets to take a bus out of...

    200 points...

    200 point matches are a good thing when the tournament gets into the money rounds. Specially when it comes down to the quality of these skilled players. It gives both players time to shake off the butterflies. Both should have amble time at the table. The format of this tournament with the...

    Balls dont break apart well

    Danny is correct and his advice is right on. The temperature in the room is important. You might come to notice that if the temperature in the house is set at at certain degree, the table might play better. The temperature outside can affect it too. Keeping the table & balls super clean really...
