    Passover Banks? Maybe they only go if it's kosher.

    Bar tables...a plus for pool

    Out of curiosity which rails do you have? I put Ridgeback Pros on my Valley at the cottage, and while I like the table and the way the rails play, it does not feel tighter to me than a Diamond BB. Balls that would hang on a Diamond drop because of the super shallow shelf (which I don't...

    Our top US players

    This is an excellent post. And as bad as it is in the U.S., it is worse for the pros in Ontario. Your comments on the difference between a player of your caliber and the top US pros are interesting. They mesh with my own observations of seeing players of about your Fargo Rating go up...

    Bar table championship done for?

    So Tin Man (Demetrius) is playing Jesse Engel on the live stream at 1:00 pacific time and then Wilkie will play the winner of Ernesto Dominguez and forum member OneShotWiss (Mark Wissman). So at least one AZ member on stream for sure - hopefully two! Sadly I can't watch because I'm at work.

    Bar table championship done for?

    I didn't know your real name or I would have included you. Great shooting. Beating Manny 9-3 is pretty sporty. Good luck and have fun!

    Bar table championship done for?

    In AZ news, our own Tin Man took down Oscar Dominguez hill-hill on the B-Side and is still in it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Cloth Speed: New Table vs Refelted Table

    Doesn't require a ramp, but does require the ability to lag! I should get it right after 30 or 40 attempts.

    HUGE Action match Day 3 Gabe Owen vs Danny Smith

    What is "rubberize" in this context? Always looking to expand my vocabulary.

    Shaking My Head...

    I'm pretty sure its a joke. But if a room owner wants to encourage bad racks, all he or she has to do is pick up the absolutely cheapest plastic racks available, that are guaranteed to bend when you try to freeze the balls.

    James Aranas Zoren

    I see he lost to Mr Smooth in the event on now. Anyone know the score?

    Probably already posted, but, that was worth watching..

    I did consider that issue before posting, but almost all of the women on this list have chosen to market their beauty as part of their public image. I don't think it wrong to compare the beauty of those who have chosen to market it. (I don't think Alison or Jasmine have really done this, but...

    Probably already posted, but, that was worth watching..

    I suppose opinions are like a$$holes, but that would not be anywhere near the order I would put those women in. Shanelle #1?? Emily ahead of Borana and the Black Widow? My own list would have Jeanette, Borana and Jasmine in the top 3 (any order is acceptable to me). The Russian is also a...

    Groot runs a 150

    Am I wrong to be suspicious of the editing (there is often an edit between shots)? Not saying he did this, but he could have replaced the balls and shot again to keep his run going.

    Nice. Good price. Hope some members here take advantage.

    Poll: Match between (Rodney, Corey, Sky, Oscar, Billy) and Karen: your guess

    Well, I certainly can see her losing with 4 or 5 games against say Rodney in winner breaks. He might run a five pack and a 6 pack and smoke her. He might do that to anyone. I said 2 earlier, but if is best of 5 sets and the best of the players listed, I think 3 may be better. Sent from my...

    What do you think...

    I agree with pocket. The coin op Brunswick is interesting from a novelty point of view, but I would never take it over the GC (I'm assuming you have room for the 9'). The furniture table is pretty, and if you have an issue (say with your wife) over having an "ugly" commercial table I would...

    8 Ball Rules issue

    Thanks. I agree that the BCA pool league rule is clear and that was what the rule say. It is interesting to me that a room full of pool players could not agree on what the rule is (until I looked it up and showed people). Also interesting to me that there was considerable debate (even after...

    Drama - WPA & China

    Has the WPA even confirmed that the Jinan event is proceeding? Last week they were telling people not to book flights!

    8 Ball Rules issue

    So last night at the pool hall a scotch doubles action match is under way. One player makes his ball and as he stands up bumps the 8b, which drops straight in the pocket. Opinions between players and on the rail differ, with opinions being: 1. Loss of game. 2. Foul and loss of turn, but not...
