    this is not ok..

    Very nice shooting. I have seen videos of you playing for years. I don’t need to know you to know a little about your game. Now don’t get all upset if I tell you to go do the same with someone sitting in the chair at hill / hill just itching to get at the table. Maybe you shouldn’t make...

    Max Eberle on people who play on barboxes "Pool players need to grow some balls"

    This past weekend I saw a 745 Fargo play a 558. The race was 7-5 according to the TD. You think they should have played straight up? Not all tournaments are run that way. Everyone has to play according to how the tournament director runs his / her tournaments. Players are usually put into...

    Max Eberle on people who play on barboxes "Pool players need to grow some balls"

    I heard what he said, not what I wanted to hear or what was implied. I play mostly in the top two divisions that are available in my area. Most of these tournaments are straight up. There are some sprinkled in there that give a game to a player that is need of one based on Fargo, CSR or...

    Max Eberle on people who play on barboxes "Pool players need to grow some balls"

    Watch and listen to the video again and again. His grow some balls comment is aimed towards people playing in handicapped tournaments. Those that don't play against better players in an effort to get better etc. He also said quit playing on the bar boxes altogether for periods at a time...

    This one should be easy for you to snap off. After all it's just a bunch of bangers playing 8 ball. :)

    Does anyone know Wayne Yates from Mechanicville, VA

    Let's say I take pictures of the cue itself, the bubble wrap and / or sleeve the cue is shipped in & the thick cardboard tube that is it's home. Then the triangular box that everything goes into after that for shipping is in perfect condition. I drop it off at the UPS Store, FedEx, USPs just...

    Here's something you don't see every day, what's the ruling on it?

    Most rule sets have a section that covers jawed balls. They all pretty much say something like this. If two or more balls are locked in the jaws of a pocket, the referee (or players) must project each ball directly downward. A ball is considered pocketed if it would fall into the pocket, and...

    Put the burden of proof on the buyer. Let them show that the item was damaged during shipping. Then the seller, who hopefully insured the package can go after the shipping agent. I know that can be another can of worms, but unfortunately is the way it is at the present time. Forget the...

    90 deg cut shot

    Do you have a ratings chart to back that up? A conversion from Fargo to ABCDE? A conversion from CSR to ABCDE? A conversion from APA to ABCDE? A 500 is a 500 according to Fargo Rate. There is no need to go any further by adding a letter to that. Especially when all across the country that...

    90 deg cut shot

    Everyone & I mean everyone needs to stop using the ABCDE ratings system. With FargoRate & the Compusport Rating in place the old ranking system is obsolete. If you must use ABCDE at least get it somewhat right. A 500 should not be a C by anyone's measure.

    CSI / BCAPL 8 ball rules. You must legally pocket a ball or cause at least four object balls to contact one or more cushions or it is an illegal break. If your break is illegal, with or without a foul, your inning ends. Your opponent may re-rack the balls and break or require you to re-rack...

    Measle balls in practice

    I pick a very small target for my cue ball on a shot to shot basis & the appropriate speed & tip position to achieve hitting that target. What the cue ball looks like isn't very important to me. It's not a bad thing, but imo it isn't necessary either. The type of game & table that game is...
