If you want to learn the game that would be a good way to do it. Just hanging around and watching the all the matches while you wait or after you're out would be worth the time.

I use a Tiger Corona leather bridge. Classic style but won't scratch your cue. Fits on any cue and stores flat and takes up almost no room in your case.

Pro pool players don't make as much as you apparently think they do, especially considering the expenses involved. Just how many millions do you think Shane has made?

Call Ernie. :thumbup:

All the various break rules seem to come with their own limitations. I noticed the last Mosconi Cup simply did away with them altogether.

Yep, as long as several balls won't be disturbed, just remove the ball in question and re-place it. Heck, you're allowed to mark and replace your ball on the putting green in a PGA tour event and they're playing for a considerable amount of coinage. I've never had a problem offering to get the...

As far as the rack interfering goes I have had no problem to offer my opponent help in getting it off the table. Of course, the offer would only be done at an appropriate time when it wouldn't interfere with his process, like say when he's putting down his break cue and picking up his player...

Wow, a nose bleed section at a cue sports event! :D

Except that every table at the tournament would have to have a big ass scoreboard readable from everywhere. Not sure how long the average game takes but there may also be the problem of time, which in the case of American Rotation could only be offset by shorter races, maybe much shorter.

Hey, what can I say, even a stopped clock is right twice a day. That was a perfect example of an amateur playing out of his mind, coupled with the better player performing down to the level of his competition. ;) :smile:

Amateur level? Probably never. A top amateur playing at his best or over his head, maybe.

Honestly, I think the demise of the Louie Roberts Award is more of a bummer to the character of the Derby than this change in the 9 Ball race length.

Call Ken Hash at Classic Billiards. http://www.classicbilliards.net/html/gold_crown_medalist_parts.cfm Scroll down a bit and you should find what you are looking for.

I hardly think the Derby has lost it soul over this.

The Centennials are made for Brunswick by Saluc. I can only venture a guess that the reason they sell for more is because Brunswick sets a higher wholesale price for them than Saluc does for the Super Aramith Pros. This is from the Saluc website: Yeah, the first sentence is incomplete but...

There's really two choices there since aside from the graphics the Super Aramith Pros and the Centennials are the same balls. I've not played the Cyclops but I've read quite mixed reviews. Not very many players don't like the other two sets. I'd sort of agree with this. The reason I prefer...

Aside from my league beater I've been playing Gina for 50 years. Still have each of them, including that first one. :thumbup: There are a lot of good cues at just about all price points. Gina is just my choice. ;)

It's been happening to me again as well in Firefox, but only on AZB. All other forums and websites are fine. So it seems as though it must somehow be related to AZB. This was one of the few threads I've been able to get into. I'm also pretty sure when I hit "submit reply" now it will give me a...

When it gets to the point you can recognize a particular cue ball because of its unique shape it's probably time to change it out. :grin-square:

The old Gina probably passed through Kevin's hands at one time or another, lol! :grin-square: Still miss him. :wink:
