I'm a little conflicted on the dress codes for pool. While I understand the intent, the highway to hell is often paved with good intentions. All the reasons in the world doesn't change the fact that it promotes class warfare (which is why so many refer to people out of dress code as "bums...

Not only do I appreciate betway and matchroom sport for the event, but if it weren't for the folks on AZB, I probably wouldn't even know about it, let alone know where I could watch it. Huge thanks to everyone keeping us all in the loop.

Those are the breaks.

You know you're addicted to pool when...you can no longer relate to anyone that doesn't play.

There is a difference between good friends, and good action. They're often not the same. I'm not sure the person you're gambling with is either. In this case you may have to decide which is more important to you. I have friends that I wouldn't lend money to. My good friends that I'd lend...

Glad to hear about getting all those good rolls! Keep shootin!

LOL! Great post! Pool is an infinite game. It's not meant to be won, only played.

I've had the same issues and as others have said, you just have to keep your mind on the task at hand. If you feel yourself getting too emotional, stop for a second and try to control your breathing, take a deep breath. Stress causes short breathing which then impacts the brain and then...

I also use the swipe method and will usually glance at the tip when I've got the butt end rested on the floor. If it's my first shot of the inning or I've got a shot that requires spin, I'll make sure I've got a good "base coat". But I sometimes hold the cue like many do so I can walk and...

Jayson Shaw is becoming a favorite of mine to watch, that's for sure.

That's a great story and some very forward thinking by the pool room owner. It's absolutely a great long term plan of seed planting to have a much bigger field of "crops" later down the road. Back in the day, it was common to work hard upfront for payment afterwards. These days, it's about...

I think either would look good on the front. For a t-shirt, I think the large logo looks better. But for me personally, I'm not a fan of printing on the back of shirts in general.

I have the original little red book: Willie Mosconi on Pocket Billiards. I've also watched the 1 or 2 videos on YouTube where he gives instruction along with anything else of him that's available online. There's good advice (and bad) all over the internet and I have effectively used much of...

Man...those are fan-fukn-tastic! I'm amazed sometimes how much smoking has been a part of our culture and how much it was integrated in with almost every piece of furniture imaginable at one time.

Impressive indeed. Well done, Josh Roberts.

Probably around the same time that points became "mute".

Not sure it gets any better than that, looks perfect!

I appreciate the comment, Danny. Thanks! JohnnyP, hope you're still enjoying the journey! I'm going to try to post a video of myself soon. If you watch, I'm sure you'll feel better about your runs. :o

Maybe we've identified the major issues about leagues for folks on both sides of the fence. Seems like handicaps and sandbagging is a big issue. This to me comes from people that have progressed beyond "little league" but for whatever reason don't want to move on to "babe ruth", etc. Imagine...

If the 1 is tight like it sounds, I like playing the 10 in the corner and then 5 in the side for position on the 2. If the shape is right, I'd probably go ahead and play the 1 in the lower right corner (other end of table) on the diagram. Otherwise I'd play the 4 in the corner, then 7 in the...
