Congrats Jimmy on both fronts! And good luck this weekend! Hope to be reading about you again!

Congratulations! Congratulations Dave!

The only problem I see with calling #2 a foul, is that if this is truly the case then almost any miscue is a foul. Unless it is done intentionally, and of course that is a subjective call, it should not be called a foul. But again, like others of have said, it depends on what the players have...

Actually witnessed this myself. We were playing a 10 ball tourney and i witnessed a very good player make the 10 ball in the left corner behind the rack 6 times in a race to 9. I think it does have a lot to do with how the balls are racked or how the table is "tracked" from play, but to hit it...

Yes, congratulations Sarah!! Very nice win. Your time is coming now!!

i would take the rail to the 6 ball. It looks more natural to me.

If its off the rail, I definitely prefer the long straight in shot. If your basics are good, the straight should be a little easier to his as you have more of the pocket to hit than you do with a tougher cut. JMO. Oh, and I agree with Eydie. There is no reason to be taking pot shots at...

IMHO This is attributed to focus, or a lack there of. You have to focus on every shot and every game. Lord knows Im as guilty as the next guy, but I have been shooting much better the past couple months and I attribute it all to learning to focus on the shot, dont let anything distract you...

That is a sweet looking cue. I love my Jacoby. Thanks for posting the pics! Chuck

I would be interested in this as well...I recently formatted also, luckily I saved my data on another drive..so I have about 12 gigs worth of pool vid...and am anxious to get back in and share away.

I agree. The ones who complain are the ones that dont spend any money at the establishment anyway and after all, tournaments are supposed to give the players a chance to compete, but ultimately to make some money at the establishment as well. Isnt it funny how the ones that complain about...

In my experience of running tournaments....I have found that the most successful tournaments are ones that have a broad spectrum of ability in the players that enter. You have to have about half of players that would be considered beginning to intermediate players and some intermediate players...

Those are some pretty sharp brackets...all it needs is the scores of the matches and it would be great

Rick W Your thread was already on the board before Mike deleted the users accounts...I was reading it and reported the "last thread" to Mike...you did not post it after the fact. Just fyi

now THAT is the funniest thing Ive seen in a LONG TIME. Thanks, I needed the laugh!!!

I agree. This should never happen - especially when you consider Busty and Efren in the same group....thats crazy...In any seeded event they should be on opposite sides of the bracket completely...but thats just MHO.

This is just to let everyone involved know. I deleted several messages in this thread because they AGAIN had to take away from the subject and start the same old argument all over again. If anyone has a questions....let me know... Chuck Parrill

NewMember12345 - I have these saved also..so if you cannot get them...pm me and I can try to send them as well.

Reno, where in central Illinois are you at?

I have found that a loose grip works about the best....I wrap my hand around the butt and then let it basically rest on the middle and ring finger. I close the grip with my thumb, but my hand does not touch the handle other than this. My stroke has improved a lot by doing this. The only...
