    Gambling 9 ball Debate...need your thoughts

    My bad Frank, rereading my post, it's kinda ambiguous and confusing to what event in OP's story I'm referring to, and people are getting the exact opposite idea of what I was trying to say. I didn't say the player who pocketed the 9 in the wrong pocket fouled. I said the other player fouled by...

    Gambling 9 ball Debate...need your thoughts

    The 9-ball spots again, and player A has ball in hand for player B illegally moving the cue ball (picking it up thinking it was ball in hand). The game wasn't over at that point. Since they are friends, they could have agreed to play the last game over again from the start in the name of good...

    Did Yang Ching Shun retire from pool?

    When he was playing a lot in the mid 00's I thought he was the best player on the planet, especially after he gave Dennis Orcullo a thrashing in those two long-race format money games. I also heard that he beat Busta pretty soundly in an after-hours match back at one of the WPC's years ago. Does...

    To all the Mike Dechaine Nay-Sayers.

    The gap in ability is wider than you think IMO. When Mike starts traveling around the world constantly and playing all of those tough international tournaments, then seeking out and gambling with the best players in the world in Taiwan and the Philippines, and has a bunch of major titles under...

    Questions about action in Vegas in July between the Filipino and Taiwanese pros

    When I arrived, I just caught the end of Orcullo arguing with the Taiwanese players after losing a money game to one of them. I think the bet was supposed to be a few thousand, and after Dennis lost, he kept insisting that he did not bet that much. I think it was a simple communication breakdown...

    Young player gets a lesson in sharking.

    At 6:40 Bobby clearly doesn't hit a rail when he attempts to play safe, and Mike walks to the table immediately after and doesn't say anything, and it looks like nobody else noticed it either. Not calling a foul on yourself on something so obvious as that speaks volumes about this guy's...

    Kamui Black tips softness/hardness question

    Hi all, I took a break from pool for a while dealing with some health issues. I still play occasionally, and I did play in this year's BCAPL tournament at the Rio. I put in about three solid weeks of practice before so I could at least get in semi-stroke before leaving for Vegas. I had a three...

    Kvinbrwr R.I.P.

    I've been away from this forum (and pool for the most part) for a while, I had no idea Kevin passed away. He was a great guy, one of my favorite poolroom personalities. Great sense of humor and well-liked in the poolroom I worked at. Very sad to hear this. If his family is reading this, I offer...

    Celebrities who play pool

    Manny Pacquaio plays pretty sport from what I hear. And I remember hearing that Keifer Sutherland plays real strong, and that he used to stake players like Parica for big money.

    Ever been jarred before?

    I'm not entirely sure that this actually happened to me, but it was pretty strange nonetheless. I was playing someone some cheap 1-pocket, and had been downing bottled water the whole match because it was kind of warm in there. After I got back from a trip to the restroom, I guzzled the rest of...

    SVB getting upset

    Sounds like Victor is the creep and not Santos. Most of the pinoys went around hustling when they first came to the USA, including Efren. Ever heard of Cesar Morales? And in your post you said Santos was giving up a huge spot to somebody and Santos lost. That sounds like he was showing some...

    You don't see anything at all hypocritical about this post? Made me burst out laughing actually. Oh, the irony.

    Can You Beat Yu Ram Cha???????????

    Hell no, she would destroy me. I would then ask her on a date, and feel even more beaten when she turns me down.
