    ACS tournament craziness in Iowa

    The fact is that if they had been flexible with the TD, as irrational as the TD might have been, they wouldn't have lost thousands of dollars 🤷‍♂️

    ACS tournament craziness in Iowa

    Why would both teams refuse to play on a third table? Dumbasses.

    So, are the old Gandy Big G tables really all that bad?

    "Brushing the rail coming into the pocket" should not be a death sentence. Pool is not snooker.

    So, are the old Gandy Big G tables really all that bad?

    How do you define a “well struck ball”?

    So, are the old Gandy Big G tables really all that bad?

    Why is it an “Olhausen rattle” on an olhausen but “you’re not good enough” when a Diamond rattles even worse? Diamond sure has great PR.

    pretty funny how the Olhausen rattle is infamous but no one seems to care about the Diamond rattle.

    WPBA to organize Women's World 8-Ball Championships

    As always, thanks for providing needed reality checks. It’s unfortunate that some people interpret posts like this as negativity or even anti-Americanism.

    Opinions regarding a former top pro playing in and dominating a Poolroom‘s weekly handicapped tournament?

    Imagine some golf pro trying this BS. Bobby Clampett or Scott Simpson or Gary Koch rolling up to the weekly skins game. He would get laughed off the course for trying to steal from a bunch of 10 handicaps.

    Opinions regarding a former top pro playing in and dominating a Poolroom‘s weekly handicapped tournament?

    If it's a 700 playing a 400, then that's going to be tough to handicap unless you are willing to accept a race to 1 for the lower rated player. If you insist on the lower-rated player needing 2 wins, the 8-to-1 ratio would suggest a fair match is 16-2. So no wonder the 700 cleans up if 10-2 is...

    Pool in Europe vs USA: 7-foot vs 9-foot tables

    It's wild how many people think "it could be me" or "it could be someone like me" hanging with the best in the world. No it couldn't. The closest you'll get is some hyper-talented person who has shown elite promise since childhood, neglects their job and their family in adulthood, and is...

    End of DAZN finally?

    Based on how little pool content they provide, DAZN probably doesn't care much about losing this audience.

    Predator (PBS) ventures into one pocket, bank pool, wheelchair in 2025

    The vitrol of the personal attacks against Filler from the peanut gallery for spurning Matchroom is ridiculous. For all we know it was forced on him by sponsors and wasn't even his decision at all.
