    What are the tricks/patterns to playing runout 8 ball?

    It's no secret. Fight for every angle, do not let up for one second.

    Nick Varner at Felt

    Great post, thanks. It was a great time. A little side note about that young man on the left in the picture above with his hands in his pockets. His name is Nick, he plays *very* well, and in his first match of the tournament I witnessed him do something truly inspiring. After the break in...

    Tad cue any idea of value?

    I have one of these, identical to yours except for the wrap. I have two shafts with ivory ferrules. I'm getting about the same estimates as you are, props to all here with the great info. I've had mine since '81. As far as authenticity goes, all one has to do is screw one of these old Tad...

    Q Masters altercation?

    Maybe it's the bland food they are used to ? Send 'em over the pond at get them all hopped-up on high-fructose corn syrup and mcDonalds and they get crazy ? :grin: Probably about 10 years ago Darren and I came close to blows at the BCA singles tourney in Vegas. Hill-hill rack dispute. I got...

    Questions Regarding Issues Raised In TAR 29 Podcast

    ^ That's a good point. Speaking of TV... It occurred to me last night after watching the last few episodes of the WSOP on ESPN why people watch poker. The drama. Everyone *here* sees the drama in a hill-hill tactical safety match, but the general public does not. To them it is boring. To...

    Us Open Updates....

    Thanks for the updates. Sheesh, if Alcano had gotten there vs. SVB it would be an all pinoy Semifinal A side. With arguably the best pinoy still lurking on the B side. Tough action, great tournament.

    Old school 57 incher, plain jane birdseye maple, stainless rings. Two shafts w/ivory ferrules. For sale or possible trade + cash. I'll be at Felt this afternoon (10/26) and Sunday (10/28) as well. Come and see it, I've owned it since '81.

    If you had a choice to play a world champion, who woulld it be?

    Already played Efren. My choice would have to be Francisco. He probably owes me a spanking anyway, after the countless poker spankings I've given him. :D

    USBTC Professional or not?

    Argh! I changed someone's mind about this early in the thread. Why are you attacking me now by exclusion ? P.S. just kidding.

    You say APA is for bangers?

    +1, had the pleasure of talking to him more than once at Reno, very cool guy.

    USBTC Professional or not?

    This is a complex issue, requiring thinking beyond typical knee-jerk reaction. Which I suppose is why some people here are not getting it. It it about the coins being put in the tables ? No Is it about a TD calling out a player publicly ? No But thanks for trying to obfuscate the issue in...

    USBTC Professional or not?

    Somehow they are to blame for someone screaming "F**k you!!!" at someone else over $5? Sorry man, I was standing there. You are so caught up in splitting hairs you are missing the real point. The behavior was inexcusable, he was flat out lucky he didn't get tossed.

    USBTC Professional or not?

    I disagree with you here Jayman. What would be insulting to me as a player would be if they didn't have to put coins in the table, while I have to in the same round, just because my name isn't recognized and I don't have any sponsors to placate. People seem to confuse what TAR does with real...
