The best thing to do is to contact the authorities first, make sure you have proof like the other guy said, and then take action. This is the safest and sure way to handle something like this. If I were you, I would get your money back instead of a cue, because the guy might do a half-assed job...

What's the deal with Corey? I heard he doesn't practice as often anymore, and he is taking up golf. Does anyone know what his status is? It would be a shame to see such an amazing player kick something he dominated at and play such a boring game as golf (although you can make much more money in...

I don't really think professional poolplayers have an obligation to be nice to everyone. Perhaps she was in a bad mood and she got rubbed the wrong way? You never know, and I don't understand what the big deal is.

Although it sounds very rude what Fran did (if it is true), I would never judge a person by one bad gesture. I've read some of her posts on other boards, and she doesn't really sound like a rude person to me. I have to admit, I do think alot of female pro players are not very good, but when...

Male players seem to be alot better at kicking balls and playing safe, I think that might be the major difference.

There is no man in the world who can touch Efren's cue-ball control. If he had Bustamante's break, he would be the best 9-ball player. Efren is in the top 5 for 9-ball, but for everything else on a 9", he is king. For 9-ball it's Earl the Pearl.

I must admit that all the arguing was annoying, but it did provide some entertainment for me. (waiting in anticipation of Slow Lenny, a guy who makes 1-5 word posts once every 2 months)

United States Pool Players Association It's a handicapped pool league. Probably better than the rest of the handicapped leagues, but it still sucks nonetheless, since it's handicapped.

Now as for Efren offering Allison the 5 ball, I would definately put my money on Efren, he might lose a few sets but he would come out on top. I see Efren miss all the time on TV, but you gotta understand, even Efren told me this, with those lights blaring, and the crowd watching, it get's hot...

Hmm I'm gonna have to agree with Instroke (John) on this one....if I knew you had meant that all the time I wouldn't have argued with you :) I do believe that on any given day, Allison might beat Efren in a tournament. What I actually meant was in the long run. Say Efren and Allison played 5...

Re: Re: Should professional pool become unisex? Either you're mad because I told the truth about how the women play, or you're a radical feminist, or both.

Of course Allison doesn't want to play against the men, she'd get embarassed. Jimmy Mendoza could probably give her the 7-ball......

No, but I'm sure if they realized that this might be a reason why 98% of them can't run more than a two-pack, they would go ahead with it.

Think about it. The top women players play about half as good as the top men players. I think that if professional pool had been integrated from the start, there might be some female "Efrens" today. In my opinion, the reason why most female professionals can't play a lick compared to the men, is...

Has anyone tried this, and if so, is it worth the money? Just curious, thanks.

Not to throw gas on a fire, but last conversation I had with Efren a few months ago he also calls it the grip.....it's just a term, not worth making a big deal about, and I don't think it's worth calling me wrong over it....

I think Efren or Bustamante or Strickland today. and a few years ago Archer

A grip, a hold, its the same thing to me. I didn't make a mistake Plato, what are you getting at? Everyone grips or "holds" the cue in a different way, and the reason I made this thread is because I am interested in how well each of these different grips serves the player.

In my book Pete Rose should go into the hall of fame. In all sports, the role models are the ones who do advertisements to sell products. If they were not role models, the advertisement companies would not want them endorsing anything. The hall of fame has nothing to do with role modeling, it...

You sir, are the exact opposite of a nit. If what you say is true to your life, I wish there were more players like you.
