    Favorite quote from Pool Movies

    OK, not classically a "Pool" movie, but from The Cinncinati Kid "Women are a universal problem".

    So, are the old Gandy Big G tables really all that bad?

    Eli, you make a good point (aIthough I don't know you, so I can neither agree or disagree with your self report that you suck). Playing on a table is one thing. From the tone of the article, I think people we're also speaking in reference to owning a table...in which case, the quality of a...

    So, are the old Gandy Big G tables really all that bad?

    Like everything else, the answers are all subjective. In my experience the Gandy Big G tables weren't horrible, they were a solid C- to C table...but the Gold Crowns are in the solid B+ to A- range...with the Diamond tables being A++ and in a class all by themselves. Prior to Diamond, there...

    How much more accurate are the REVO shafts?

    That's cool, fair enough. I've no doubt these shaft are awesome. I'm just calling a little BS on the poorly defined, % claim. -Z-

    Calling Tim Scruggs Fans to eBay Listing.

    Calling All Tim Scruggs Fans to eBay Listing. Saw these on eBay and had to share here. I'm sure the price will go up a little bit, but dang. These are beautiful. Hope someone from the community here gets them. And no, I have no financial interest in the auction. -Z-...

    How much more accurate are the REVO shafts?

    How many of those Pros are part of Team Predator either straight up on contract or via the payola type perks of Influence Marketing? Then there's the goal of marketing. I'm not saying this is a case of the Emporer's New Clothes, but who isn't looking for an edge? Predator has the budget & the...

    How much more accurate are the REVO shafts?

    I'm sure Predator does have data...the question is how did they arrive at that data, or as it's known to those familiar with scientific research, what is their methodology behind the data at which they arrived. Did they have Mike Sigel play with a Revo and then Stevie Wonder with a regular a...

    Your (or a friends) introduction to gambling at pool

    My cousins had a pool table. Even before I was old enough to play we'd "play-bet" on this or that. As unfashionable as it is to say, my 1st explosure to Pool included an awareness of the game's close association of gambling. My 1st real experience with gambling at pool was when I was in 8th...

    Pool is dead or is slowing dying. Why is this?

    I can stream tournament play from around the globe on demand, 24/7/365, any time I want. https://tv.chalkysticks.com/ Yeah, it's not competing with the NFL, but neither is soccer. The governing bodies & associations for Pro PLayers need to pull their heads out of their @$$3$. From what I've...

    Pool is dead or is slowing dying. Why is this?

    I don't think Pool is dying so I reject all of the Poll's choices and didn't vote. Pool may seem that it's dying when comparing it to the post "Color Of Money" resurgence. I think we've hit a slow growth cycle or simply plateaued. The growth of Pool Rooms opening in the early 90's, like any...

    OB or should I say SP

    Look at what a mess George Steinbrener's kids have made of the NY Yankees. GS may have been hard nosed, but he never took himself too seriously and was a class act. His kids are slowly destroying the dynasty. The way they treated Jeter at contract time was a disgrace, I mean, they basically...

    OB or should I say SP

    What I'm going to share is totally speculative, so let me say that up front. It is not uncommon when a partner in a business dies, that the role of the person who inherits those shares is not clearly defined in a "line of succession" plan. The interpretation of what may be written is also up...

    I'm sure it plays/shoots like a dream, but damn, it's equally museum worthy artwork too. Beautiful cue, such understated elegance. -Z-

    Favorite quote from Pool Movies

    Not my favorite line, but certainly worthy of an honorable mention, from PoolHall Junkies: "Did you guys know that the average penis size is X inches... and that the average vaginal canal is X inches? Therefore, in this country alone...there's over X miles of unused virgin pu$$y out...

    Do you retip your cue or have it done by someone?

    My father was awesome with all things that involved working with his hands. I received none of that talent. As such my shafts always go to someone with a lathe for tip replacement. While they're at it, they always clean up the shaft too and restore that smooth as glass feel to it. For me...

    Pool Table Distance Between Tables

    Most Pool room owners I've spoken with preach 5 feet, but admit that in some instances they've used as little as 4 1/2 feet. The rationale is if they can fit an extra table or 2 in, that adds nicely to the bottom line, be it the end of the night, week, month or year. It sounds like that's not...
