    Cloth

    Tournament Blue. There is no competition. I don't like any other color for a cloth, and this comes from me, a person who dress and owns exclusively black items with white accents. All my clothes are black and white, my bed sheets are black, my bath towels are black, my playing cue and my break...

    For Olympic Pool to exist...

    I know that you can't say you've seen a Marathon if you watch only 2 minutes, I was exaggerating. I was speaking like a viewer who can't watch 10 ball for exaple because "it's not as fast paced for TV and you need a wow factor" and stuff like other users have said in this thread. If the average...

    For Olympic Pool to exist...

    Maybe I'm old fashioned (i'm 22 btw) but I grew up with a whole other idea about Olympics... First of all: Why would you want pool to be an Olympic sport? For recognition of the players? Last time I checked, there are world caliber tournaments, there is a "Hall of Fame", and we all know the...

    2016 World 9-Ball Championship

    For the average pool player this might be true, but I don't think SVB has a money problem.. I don't know the facts to be honest, but I'm guessing he could afford it for a year.

    Blak3 impressions

    Well, as you said everyone has their own opinion, and beauty is something extremely personal and many times it doesn't have any reason behind it. I've seen many cues here on the forums, few of them I've said that this is a beautiful cue. But Blak3-3 for me is in another level. I can't deny that...

    Ever win or lose by a "Lucky Shot"

    Well, today I lost to an inferior player because of multiple lucky shots. I was playing in a 9-ball tournament and my opponent was lucky af. It's not a high category tournament, it's a tournament where players are expected to make some (to a lot of) mistakes. I sure made my fair amount of them...

    Can anyone explain this?

    I personally don't have a problem with this rule. In my area we usually play with this 3 balls must reach the head string rule (or be pocketed) when we use a magic rack, if we are using a wooden triangle we don't have this rule. In my opinion this rule doesn't exclude soft breaks. It is very...

    Russian MAGIC CHALK

    Do you ship them in Europe? If yes, what's the shipping costs? (I don't mind if the "money back if don't like" doesn't apply)

    What do pool players write in their notebooks?

    I'm not 100% sure but I think I've heard Neils Feijen talking in an interview about a notebook that he writes down shots he missed so he can practice later. It's not necessary that he writes them during the actual match, he can wait until the match is over.

    Trouble with consistency

    First of all, thanks a lot for all the responses! There were a lot of useful tips. Some things to clear up: 1) As much as I'm sure it would help, I'm not planning on getting an instructor. Even if I was, I'm not in the US so I'm guessing all those suggested are a little too far for me (just an...

    Trouble with consistency

    I do practice my fundamentals. For example, I spent hours after hours shooting straight in shots. I set up the OB on the center of the table and the CB in the diagonal of the table and shoot 10 times with stun, 10 times with follow (white in the same corner pocket with the OB) and 10 with screw...

    Trouble with consistency

    Hello all.. As the title suggest, I have a big trouble with my consistency. For reasons I don't understand, I can play fairly good for only about a week and a half, and then for the next two weeks my level colapses, to the point I can miss unmissable shots.... And after that, I can play great...

    Chalk Wars Photography - Photos of Battle Damage. Post Up!

    My chalk. I've sanded it down so i could use it (I don't like if the "walls" are too high, it messes up my ferule.). It may not seem like it judging from the photo, but that crack in the center is in the bottom of the chalk, only the sticker is left under there.

    First tournament winnings

    Congratulations!! The experience is for sure more valuable than the 40$ :) 2 weeks ago I won my first tournament (handicaped single elimination 9-ball). I used all the winnings (90 euros) in entrance fees for the next tournaments :)
