Is it possible to improve significantly (25 Fargo points or more) once you get a little older and have had the same game for a long time? I’m in my upper 50s and have been playing competitively for 35 plus years. Im about a 650 fargo which is very competitive but lately have been working hard...

Is it possible to make a ball consistantly on a 9 ft table playing 10 ball if your break speed is under 20 mph?

Has anyone done the Dr Dave billiard university exam 1 that is on YouTube? If so, how was your score? It takes a bit to set up but I think it helps point out weaknesses. I did it 3 times yesterday on a 9 ft Diamond and scored 63, 65 & 69. I found my controlled draw and stop shots need work...

player 1 is losing 7 -6. Player 1 pockets a ball in his correct pocket to make it 7 - 7, on that same shot he also makes the last ball in a side pocket. The ball that went in the side spots. Whose shot is it?

Joe Nielsen won our Icmoa, Illinois state tournament over the past weekend for the third time, two out of the last 3 years, with a 2nd place finish in the year he didn't win. congratulations Joe. It is a very short race tournament, race to 3 8-ball, double elimination. It always has between 150...

I am going to Nashville over the weekend and may have some free time. Does anyone know of good poolrooms with 1p or 9-ball action in that area? thanks

I was reading past accomplishments on billiard players. I saw where Raymond Cuelsons and Sang Lee were the best players for most of the last 30 years. My question is who is or has been the best US billiard players in the past 30 or so years?

I had my highest one pocket run today and was wondering how it matched up against the most you have seen/done. We were betting pretty good and I was giving 12-8. I ran 12 & out my first trip to the table, made a ball on break and ran 5 more for an 18 ball run. Its the highest I've done or seen...

Thanks to a couple of our local businessmen, (Joe Nielsen, owner of Nielsen Biliards & Rob Mathews, owner of AirMasters Heating and Cooling), myself and about 25 other invited guest were lucky enough to attend a private exhibition from Earl Strictland and John Schmidt last night. The event was...

Does anyone know who or where I can send my rails to have new rubber put on them? thanks

I also posted this on the snooker forum, but I figured I would post it here also since I'm sure one of you guys would know this. Also, this forum gets a lot more views and we are probably playing tonight. Recently a friend of mine bought a 5 by 10 snooker table. My question is; player 1 shoots...

I played snooker quite a few years ago. Recently a friend of mine bought a 5 by 10 table. My question is; player 1 shoots at a red ball (on ball) and misses the ball completely but does not scratch. The cue ball snookers player 2 from hitting a red ball. Player 1 gets at least a 4 point foul...

Beautiful Scruggs that I ordered new from Tim back in 2002. Sorry - no pics yet, but if you are in Olathe this weekend you can see it at Mike Durbins booth. He will also have plenty of nice Durbin Cues there.

We are looking for a reasonably priced 5 x 10 snooker table with tight pockets for a personal rec room. We are located in central IL.

I was playing a 9-ball session the other night & my opponent made Five straight 9's on the break. Granted we were playing on a bar box with a heavy cueball, but I still thought that it is very unusual to make that many in a row. Has anyone seen more than five 9's on break in a row?

I went into our local pool room for the first time in a couple months. A guy that I have never seen before ask me if I want to gamble some. Since I haven't been playing much I said I would only gamble at 1-pocket. We start playing for a fairly good amount after six or so games we are even. In...
