This sounds like a great idea. Especially because it teaches people how to play pool. Then it becomes fun to do yourself! At the same time there is tense and a rich context with alot of history. (already looking forward to the bonus ball episode :P)

Indeed Corey Duel should give it a shot :) About 2: there may be other ways to setup the balls. I do think its possible to lose very little energy when potting the ball in the side pocket. The 1 and 2 ball could also be placed so that the cueball sort of cuts the 2 into the corner. But it...

These shots both require alot of draw. Can you shoot them? Best would be videoproof :) The first shot is a shot that I once made by accident. I was practising to pot the ball in the corner pocket and gave it alot of draw. It went two rails into the corner pocket. Second one is a shot I tried...

If Marijuana is legal in you state you can become the first Coffeeshop Poolhall :D That'll attract a crowd. And stoners like to play pool.

$175 (without a scoreboard, right?) O.O I bought a set of pookerballs for 80 euros. They're probably made in larger quantities and the balls are less decorated.. but still.. Well maybe they become collectors items :) About the only way to get this game played is to (allmost) donate the sets...

A match that I enjoyed alot was Keith McCready vs Strickland (1988) Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHQw9T5uvyk I never heard of Keith and saw his weird style of play. Looked him up and his wikipedia was a very entertaining read.

To bad this is failing, I really enjoyed the game Bonus Ball and watching those pros play in teams. Is there another variant that is playable (not requiring tons of material) and aired by a proven competent company? I would even enjoy watching strong amateurs play a new game.

Bonus ball is an awesome game, I hope the business behind it will become solid. Its sad how hard some people are cheering for this to fail. Only, ofcourse, after saying the obligatory "all I care about are the pro's being paid".

Enjoyed it alot!

This kid is just not funny anymore.. awesome billiardshots! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvGYrNRr9Zw (posted this on the forum before, sry if you see it twice)

Still awesome! Hope people take a look. Its worth the 4 minutes

Thats good news! Im not a businessman, but I hope that BB wil do whatever cuts that are nescessary to survive. Even if that means shrinking down players/ numbers of teams. I also hope they find cheap or free ways to market the game. Also I would seriously consider letting in teams of different...

Searched the forums if Jop de Jong's new video had been posted but didn;t find it. This time he made a billiards trickshotsvideo and it has incredibly nice shots. Url: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvGYrNRr9Zw His channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/jopssports

Opinions about BB vary:

Good feedback. Many people are willing to pay $5 if they can use a stream they know is safe, has good quality and is sure to work. If team China plays Im sure you'll sell a daypass or two.

Voted for 40%, but my guts say the percentage is lower. Which is lame because I saw some youtube matches and REALLY enjoyed it. To be honest when I watch 8 ball I kind of fall asleep. Because those pro's run so many tables. Mostly the difficult racks or nice run-outs are interesting to watch...

Thanks for the stream. Im rooting for Deuel! Think he is going to show some magic. Thats what I like about bonus ball. It sometimes forces to try crazy shots. Also the clock and the timer give the game an extra strategy. The football setup may be a bit forced or misplaced, but the teams do make...

Havent tried the free stream, but I did watch a video on youtube and I found it very nice to watch a new poolgame being played by these pro's!

That would be the case if it was in a vacuum. Air has a bit more density, water even more and the jello that was mentioned perhaps even more. On a normal table the ball is mostly slowed by the rollingfriction of the cloth. I think its best to make the "air" in the pool as dense as is needed to...
