    What is YOUR shot?

    This is one of my favourites. Handy shot to have. http://CueTable.com/P/?@2AUie2BVgv2Cavg1HAnk2IaXe3PSUo3kSUo2kaXM2kaPO1kbNL2kNlk3uDCL@

    What is YOUR shot?

    Ok, so over the years I have been fortunate enough to have had, as I am sure most have, those nights of extreme boredom where a bunch of talented players are standing around a table full of balls not wanting to play when one player says, "try this shot". They then proceed to hit a shot you would...

    Does this J/b exist?

    J&J makes a nice one too for the money. Cheap, breaks hard, jumps well together or apart. It's no Varney or Gulyassy, but for under $100 I haven't found one better.

    Bar Tables Vs 9 Ft Tables

    See I don't agree here. I agree it is a different kind of pool. If the equipement is good then 8 ball on a barbox is a great game and challenges you in ways you probably won't see in 9 ball. A straight pool player that typically plays on a 9 foot would probably do incredible on a barbox but you...

    Bar Tables Vs 9 Ft Tables

    Agreed that in Vegas to suceed you need to be very comfortable on the 7 foot tables. The difference there is the tables have always been in excellent shape and I really enjoyed playing on them. Around here there is no place with tables that good to enjoy barbox pool. I enjoy the game on a...

    Bar Tables Vs 9 Ft Tables

    You can develop the barbox portion of your game just as well on a well maintained 8 foot. How do you feel about barboxes? Has anyone on this site ever played on a barbox that was so good you said "Wow, I would rather play on this than a Diamond or GC any day!"?

    Speed and Spin and the Cues That Make Them

    The only times I see a player doing what you describe has to do more with their aim and set up than the cue. I assume you are playing a non-LS/LD shaft. So you are changing your point of aim to make the shot? That will change the angle of entry of the CB to the first rail. I would recommend...

    Bar Tables Vs 9 Ft Tables

    9 foot all the way. On a bar box it is the great equalizer. How many times have you seen a player that has a terrible stroke run out on a BB? That same player is screwed on a 9 foot. I like that on the bigger table you need more fundamentals so the better player should succeed over the weak. I...

    Cloth Colour - does it bug you?

    I am glad to hear I am not alone in my opinion about red cloth. I was one of the players complaining to Snorks and now he sees that I am not just full of BS....all the time:p So now Snorks, still think I am being silly?

    What Happened to Pool Rooms

    CnC Thank you for your reply. Bang on. Let me ask you another question: Would you cover your tables in red cloth? What do you think will be your reaction from the players? Do you feel that the players have a right to be disappointed and voice their opinions? Would you throw the "it's my...
