    Turning Stone - Archer Forfeit vs SVB?

    As far as the golf rule goes - it's a bit different, but I get your point. In golf the ball is not "in play" until it has been intentionally swung at. (kinda like the break shot in pool - each hole starts anew with putting the ball "in play") So, in golf, if you were to swing and whiff on your...

    Turning Stone - Archer Forfeit vs SVB?

    WOW....Pulpul, biggest a**hole in history. Calling it is bad enough, but to act that way, man, what a douchebag!

    APA screwed our very own sleinen out of a national championship

    After all of this, I'm surprised that ShortBusRuss hasn't edited the original Thread title. And....glad I don't play in any handicapped leagues! (I do play in 2 leagues, neither uses handicaps and both are for serious players)

    Playing Cue

    The only thing this story means is that Scotty was WAY better than the guy he was playing. He didn't make that bet with any pros, did he? He didn't play as good with the tree limb as he did with his pool cue did he? The logic that "insert monster pro player" can beat the avg. Joe with any cue...

    Gareth Potts 8 pack of 9-ball on a Chinese 8-ball table

    Have to disagree there, Bob. I'm sure it started out as a standard snooker stance, but is no longer. I've watched a ton of snooker and studied Ronnie O quite a bit, and none of those guys have the angle difference between where their feet/legs are set and where their shoulders are set. It's...

    Gareth Potts 8 pack of 9-ball on a Chinese 8-ball table

    Watched a couple of the games - real impressive, although having a ball wired on the break makes it substantially easier to play shape for the one every time. Also, his stance looks very uncomfortable - his torso is very contorted in relation to his feet - but obviously it gets him into proper...

    World 10 Ball Championship 22-26July2019/ Winner $30K

    Yeah, I bet he had something to say about Ralf's last 2 breaks - made 3 then the next one made 4 on the break. I think the only one he ever lost graciously to was Efren. It's a shame because he was such an amazing player at one time

    World 10 Ball Championship 22-26July2019/ Winner $30K

    Yes, it's him, and if he had any clue how to play 10 ball he could have won the match and could win the tournament. Shoots way too many low % shots, though, and is not used to safety game required' I couldn't believe Jim Wyche didn't know who he was

    Great Sports Quotes That Could Apply To Pool

    The golf quote is from Gary Player. Nicklaus didn't practice all that much, as compared to most top golfers. LOVE the quote from your dad, BTW.

    10 commandments of one pocket.

    So, bearing in mind that I am a dishonest opponent, when can we play? :D (I want a game where I get all my balls and my opponent gives me all of his balls too.... so I won't steal them)

    Rasson tables...

    Have watched quite a few of the World Cup matches, and have never seen so many cue balls hop off the table on jump shots (by pros anyway). The bed of that table seemed like a trampoline. Has anyone played on those things enough to know is this an anomaly or is that a characteristic of those tables?
