    DCC Vendor Presence

    Yes, to all questions. Good luck with the COM cue. IMO, internet will provide as good of an opportunity. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What do you do ..when putting in the work doesnt work?

    I’ve said this many times on AZB; work on that which you want to be better. When putting in the work, doesn’t work, work on the part that didn’t work! What result made you decide the work wasn’t working? Change your “work” to “work” on that skill. Let’s say your math test results are below...

    Chohan-Bergman Match

    As far as renegotiating the bet late, hard to do when you know $ been bet on the side. Of course, that doesn’t mean the original bet goes away but it is a different mind set, to close. Edit: response to fjk Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Can’t imagine they won’t go again. Both come from that ilk. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What set of balls do you recommend to get?

    I have 11 sets of balls. Cents are my favorite but my Aramith Premier set gets the most play. They more closely replicate the balls I see outside my own home, whether it be hall, bar or tournament play. IMO, Aramith Premier are the most popular ball set in the US. Sent from my iPhone using...

    Must wash hands…signage…

    Last time I was in a public restroom, with a sign like that, I waited and waited but no employee showed up to wash my hands. I finally just washed them myself. [emoji41] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Pool jersey's, love 'em or hate 'em..??

    Most of them are far too gaudy. Gorst has been wearing some stylish, low key ones, as of late. But for the most part hate ‘em. They are uglier than bowling shirts. [emoji16] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Thoughts on Pattern Racking/Rack Manipulation?

    I agree. It’s a slippery slope between absolute random racking and pattern racking. I am way more likely to pay attention to ball placement when gambling, than I am in a tournament. At 6-6, in a race to 7, I can get pretty focused. It can be as simple as low balls and high balls but it becomes...

    Thoughts on Pattern Racking/Rack Manipulation?

    I have never been good enough to manipulate gaps in the rack, without it being obvious. I have pattern racked. I have also watched players pattern rack against me. I also have ways to decoy the pattern. I would be surprised to find out that other, competitive/gambling, players haven’t done it...

    House/Bar cues

    I just received an email from PoolDawg. They have their wallabushkas on sale. Quick peek looked like 4 for $140. Didn’t look to see what brand. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    WPA Bans 245 Players

    I agree with this thought. If the WPA didn’t “umbrella” the federations, would they individually be making this same decision? I doubt it. They need promoters, schools and regional leagues. Remove the WPA and it falls together more easily. I know it’s not that simple but I believe it to be true...

    How much weight do you give to a numbering system for Kick shots?

    [emoji1787] That I need to practice more. [emoji41] And no one uses numbering systems over feel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    How much weight do you give to a numbering system for Kick shots?

    I am a very deductive person, by nature. It makes the study of pool easy but it makes the application of pool more difficult. With that being said, after much study of numbering systems, I give them little weight. I do use the +2 and corner 5 occasionally, to support my judgment. All numbering...

    Which Variable Is the Cause of Most Missed Shots

    With the given premise of correct aim and straight stroke, along with your 3 options, I think it is 3 on half ball or less cuts, 1 on less than half ball cuts and 2 on longer cuts. And, of those three situations, I would guess 1 on less than half ball cuts occurs more often. But as usual, I...
