    Russian pool questions

    No I've pretty much established that this on an 8ft table would be miles away from playing the real thing. I found a set of Aramith PR balls in 2 1/4", thanks to Vahmurka. I think they would be fun to play other games with on a pool table. Totally unique from the standard sets. Great fun when...
