    Cloth

    I have a Simonis Tourney Blue table, used to have a Spruce Green. For actually playing pool the lighter colors for me are better, like Tournament Blue. I always thought that gold would be the best for playing on, but keep getting talked out of it by the Pool table guys, so I never have tried it.

    I can't figure out how to browse for pool cues on facebook.

    I am a open billiards market member on FB. There are lots of cues listed there. I recently wanted to buy a titlesist conversion, and searched all of FB for just that "titleist conversion cue" I found one, in a different FB group, which I subsequently purchased. I have not joined this other...

    New Hope for Pool? Hmm … Perhaps.

    We definitely have moved into a new world, where if you want to stream you local High School football game to the world, its not that hard to do. I too have gone over to streaming for Pool viewing, there are far more hours available than ever were on ESPN. How this all shakes out is an open...

    The trend of conceding a match

    This is a well known sharking move in Golf, where conceding putts in certain types of games is common. The shark goes like this: At the beginning of the round you concede a bunch of relatively long final putts. Then at critical moments, when your opponent expects you to concede the putt you...

    Tight Pockets

    When setting up my own GCIV, I had this discussion with the table mechanic. We settled on 4 5/8", with the ability to go down easily to 4 1/2" if I desired by going to thinner facings. We came to this conclusion as the pocket is still big enough to cheat the pocket for position, and not to...

    "Stream" of thoughts on Chinese 8ball

    Just had time this morning to watch a few minutes, but the match I watched struck me as much more "strategic" (for lack of a better word) than US pro 8 ball. There was safety play, breaking out clusters, and even some potting misses, rather than break and runs.

    Bergman vs DeChaine

    Looks like the ban hammer has dropped, so there will be a bit less arguing on here for a while. I like the streamed challenge match idea! Perhaps banned members can earn there way back on if the stage a challenge match...

    Poll: Have you improved in the past year?

    I had a lot of the ingredients, but was not quite putting it together a year ago. Took some lessons, and spent time practicing, so took a jump up in skill. I suspect that I will plateau for a while before my next jump up.

    World Pool Masters: Fargo Ratings

    Interesting! So the detailed computations have the two favorites (top two Fargo ratings) most likely to meet in the finals. I just looked, the draw has been out for a while, (since June) had not paid attention to that & suprized they drew so early. Maybe they always do that, and I never...
