    High Tech Version of Pool

    To me it sounds like one of those things where they're trying to make it like a video game because the people like the video games and stuff. But ultimately a video game is better at doing video games than pool is, so either it's a novelty and they're not interested in the real thing or they'd...

    High Tech Version of Pool

    Let me guess, it's Blacklight Pool??

    3c shot

    Huh, didn't know that. That's weird.

    Right. I mean, what?

    3c shot

    Are they using those Czech four ball rules for scoring?

    3c shot

    Turns out it's a two way shot. And pretty impressive either way.

    3c shot

    You know why 3 cushion isn't more popular in the US? Because we don't have cheerleaders at tournaments like in Korea.

    3c shot

    What's interesting is a Korean player had the exact same layout and made basically the same exact shot except he picked up one more rail before the first ball and came in at a sharper angle.

    What carom table is this?

    Ah, this is the place. It is just a bar with that one little cute table. I guess it's just amateur drunks playing a yearly tourney. https://www.velkytynec.cz/hospoda-vlastislav-jan

    What carom table is this?

    From reading the comments, on top of the 2 balls = 1 point, 3 balls = 10 rules, apparently if you shoot rail first you double the points. This is Caudron on what must be a 6' table. Looks like what they're playing on.

    Standard Pocket Sizes

    Forget about pockets. Table size isn't even standardized. Even if some master Pool Agency issued a decree on pocket size tomorrow, I doubt hall owners are going to throw out their tables and replace them, or have them re-engineered.

    What carom table is this?

    They just had another "tournament" a few hours ago. Krbecek won with 600 points in 2 hours. Some truly baffling shot choices. It's weird how they never tap the balls lightly when they have them together and score a series. They do one or two points and then hammer the balls around the table.

    Super billiards expo 2025

    I bet that guy with the brand new game that's all things to all people and solves the problem with pool is there, right? It would be silly to roll out a new game and not take advantage of a big expo?

    3c shot

    Just like with billiards, pool is more than 8 and 9 ball. Straight pool is exactly like 3C, it all comes down to points alone, there is no sell out. Also, I know you're not Czech, but you're a little more Czech adjacent than we are in the States. Do you have any knowledge of this particular...

    What carom table is this?

    Like right here - couldn't you hit a little high left on the white, drive it to the corner and just graze the blue ball and then you'll be downtable of all three balls in the corner?

    What carom table is this?

    From the freaking cacophony in the background I think it's just in some bar. It's always the one table. I think it's a "tournament" like you have a yearly thing with the guys in the bar. This guy seemed to have the idea, he brings the balls back to the corner, he was so close, and then just...
