    Was I out of line??

    Next time tell them you can hear them talking. Its ok for them to make those types of comments to his player but it shouldn't be so loud that it distracts you from your game. I would also suggest trying to use a period in your posts. Trying to read one huge sentence makes my brain hurt.

    Craigslist Scam, Tad Cue

    CL is great! Just use a little common sense and you will not get ripped off. In comparison I see people get ripped on ebay all the time because you normally do not actually get to hold the merchandise before you buy it.

    Hostile Conditions

    Wear headphones. This will help you focus when you are playing. Sharking probably will not be a problem anymore.

    Not letting a guy rematch?

    No he doesn't have "every right to be pissed". His opponent failed in communicating his expectations and the agreed race was completed. If you sit down at a poker table and take down a big pot do you have to keep playing so everybody has a chance to win back the money? F-no! You won fair and...

    Not letting a guy rematch?

    You are wrong.

    Not letting a guy rematch?

    You are not obligated to play again unless a agreement was in place before you started. As a general rule of thumb you should protect yourself from this situation and set the expectation of only playing one race before you start.

    Cue ID

    That looks like a 70's adams cue that no longer has the sticker with the logo on it

    okay I am worried now ... shipping issues

    I didn't measure the pocket size on the table I played on but I did take a picture. These pockets are a lot tighter than the normal I see here in the US

    okay I am worried now ... shipping issues

    Sounds like you should get it. If it were me I would be happy that it is a question of when rather than a question of if. I just spent some time in Hanoi and was able to make it to a pool hall. Ever been to CARMEN Club? Those pockets were brutal!

    APA Rules Expert Needed

    I know the shot you are talking about and that is addressed in BCA rules I believe. The shot I am talking about is when the cue ball is on the long rail and you cannot reach it without using the bridge. You line up the shot like you are shooting in the opposite direction of the cue ball and...

    Predator breaking cue vs modified cuetec

    Download breakshot pro on your smartphone and clock the speed of your break with the cuetec vs the predator break cue. I will add that a lot of pros use a breaking cue because it generates more power with less effort. In my mind if the professional players are using a break cue there is...

    APA scenario

    I know the answer to your question. Call goes to the shooting unless a third party is asked to watch the shot. So if you are watching a match and witness a foul you can say whatever you want but unless you were called over to watch the call goes to the shooter. I am sure it is covered in the rules.

    APA scenario

    I don't know but this seems clear as day to me: http://www.poolplayers.com/documents/2012-Team-Manual-FINAL_LR.PDF When playing the 8-ball, you scratch. You lose whether or not you pocket the 8-ball. BTW- you can easily download the PDF to a smartphone. I reference it on occasion

    APA Rules Expert Needed

    I actually know of a shot where you use the butt of the cue stick. As long as some guy isn't being a dick and hitting in the winning ball with the butt of his cue to rub it in I honestly do not see any problem with it.

    APA scenario

    Obviously the ref was not qualified to make the call on that shot. I dont see this as being a problem with APA because the rules state that if you scratch on the 8ball you lose.

    APA scenario

    Who cares how many shots were taken after the scratch on the 8ball? The game had already ended. I do not understand how anybody could making that ruling
