    Why do I still commence with shots while I know there is a distraction?

    This observation may help you to come up with some creative ideas to simulate what I'm about to describe with regard to the distractions/sharking: Over the years watched a cash/ring game at our local pool room involving up to eight Filipino players with half of them having girl friends there as...

    Biado 6 to 7 shot.

    I'm lost how to hit this. Inside just makes the cb go back'n forth across the table (for me). Outside is out of the question. A (how-to) video clip with explanation would be greatly appreciated. Don't care if he was loose at the time, what a great shot!

    APA Nationals Question

    Not where we come from. Our LO calls it weekly dues when you play with four and pay for eight. But if only four go to LV, it's called travel assistance. Meaning, the prize money for the four who don't go, goes back into his pocket, oops, I mean prize fund to be mysterically returned to all...

    All my Facebook friends thought it sucked...

    that I had to forfeit either my Seniors or Super Seniors match to get to the final eight in both. Had a great time at the SBE specially because I was playing so well this year. Seniors started Friday at 11am and a second round at 1pm. Saturday I played at 9am and Super Seniors started at...

    Outsville Tip Drawing

    Feedback offered I install tips and have tried many using the same shaft so that I can experience differences in a somewhat controlled situation and then make tip recommendations to meet potential customers needs. Currently playing with an American Eagle (S) which plays better for me than a...

    Live ESPN Womens Matches

    Please, not "really, really, really." For a guy who has been in the booth for tens or hundreds of matches, nothing ever insightful. His wife, on the other hand, is really, really, really good.

    New APA Scoring system

    Because the Equalizer System doesn't work as touted If the ES worked, there would be one national champion, not five. Yes, five. Now 6s will have their own champ and everyone nationwide will be paying for it through a 20% increase in annual dues and a 33% increase in every singles board...

    "A cool dark place, like being underwater"

    Got a timely heads up yesterday about a rerun of a Twilight Zone classic, "A Game of Pool." Just finished watching it. Aside from the typical flaws in table layout editing, there were some great lines like the title of this thread referring to a pool room. All of the classic lines are from...

    who is the best players in philly?

    Response to best Philly players When I was a kid growing up in AC I bore witness to a ton of great hustlers who would float down to the shore to hustle at a little four-table room run by Frank Morrati. Located on Mississippi Avenue across from the still standing St. Michaels Church, this place...

    What Would You Do 10-Ball Series - Shot #1

    Shot #1 Over cut one w/left spin leaving one ball on short rail behind two while sending cb to rest near upper right corner hiding cb from one ball view behind four ball. I plan on doing this to K. Corr in a couple of weeks (just a premonition that I'll be playing her at TS). Oh yeh, then...

    Le Pro?

    LePro tips Recently reshaping a LePro I installed for a friend which had mushroomed as bad as I've ever seen. While working on it (on a dedicated lathe), it essentially disintegrated. Replaced it with an Emerald which he loved. I see lots of posts about very low percentage of good LePros in...

    OB Break Cue Giveaway

    I can understand rewarding OB customers. But, wouldn't you think a marketing concept by a cue maker would want to reach out to new customers. I've looked at OBs at various shows, but never played with one. As a newbie to an OB break cue I just won, and then giving a glowing review if I...

    Soft/safe Break...ok with TAP

    SBE written rules stated no "safe" break. With no written TAP language specifically addressing this, my opponent executed a one pocket break...yes one pocket (while playing 8 ball). I asked the ref for a ruling and he said if five balls hit a rail it is legal. Well not anticipating this kind...
