My parents have never watched me play pool. They were against me playing from the onset and did whatever they could to stop me from playing. I doubt their disgust with the game had any influence on me playing more but I do know that their years of negativity towards it affects me sometimes. They...

I have one and I like it. More than a few champions borrow it quite a bit and love it. I just don't play 9 or 10 ball that much so I don't get to use it enough or I would love it too. I really like the dart jump butt as a bonus. Pretty expensive J/B but it does what it is supposed to do.

That is sad. He was a nice guy. Condolences to his family.

The room at 13 and Mound is called Hall of Fame Billiards. The House of Champions closed down a year or two ago and that was the one in Oak Park. Yeah, John McHenry, Doc Watson, Windsor Louie and other guys from the original Rack are there all the time.

By far the most meaningful win was during the summer of 2009. I had just started playing again the previous winter and had a solid run of tournaments in Montana and North Dakota. Pool was pretty popular on the Reservation I lived on and being a relatively new teacher there, pool was a way for me...

You need a population.... where in Montana are you thinking? With only 6 tables [3 and 3] you might have a rough go of it. It would be tough for tournaments with only 3 big or small tables and you would be limited in table time revenue if people are coming in mainly in a tight time slots...

Just to be different.....Depending on who I am playing I might not shoot the 10 I feel they can draw off it and get me on down in my corner. I might even consider taking a foul and kicking 3 rails between the 8 and 3 and putting him on the 13 or 14. If I execute it I would feel pretty good about...

I hate paying quarters.

Montana IS pool friendly but....... I wouldn't expect any action. Nothing like driving to a tournament when it is -40 and not getting a money game the entire weekend. Atlanta sounds really nice for pool.

If my family was even a little supportive of my "pool habit" when I was young I would have been happy. To this day I don't think my mom or my dad ever saw me play. If pool is looked at so positively in Asia there should be champion players everywhere. If you truly love pool and were encouraged...

Anyone interested in a used Poison break cue? I have a two toned blue model that is definitely used but has life in it. I had a few alterations done like a black break ferrule and a leather tip. Open to trades especially towards Winning One Pocket or Shots, Moves & Strategies. Looking for $100...

Good to hear.

it is made in Russia and is blue. I haven't noticed any significant difference between Magic Chalk and Blue Diamond. I can really feel the difference now between them and Master. Some of the billiard players where I am at use it regularly. It's just a little finer and smoother than Master.

I have 20 left. A buddy in Windsor, Ontario has a bunch right now so I can get a lot more if anyone needs it.

I shoot with a Scott Gracio and break with a Samsara and house them in a John Barton case. I am pretty happy with everything right now. Just added a leather wrap to the Gracio and made a few other modifications and had Jim Baxter make me some cool joint protectors.
