Thanks Victorl, I was going to ask if I can at least change the weights via the predator weight bolts so thanks for that.

Hi, thanks for the reply, really appreciate it. I wasn't sure of the model number but I bought it around 2005 and I think it might have been the 4K (mostly plane black) so I'm guessing it's old style so new cue it is then! :)

This might be a stupid question but been out the game a while so please excuse me! I have attached a photo of my current cue joints and wondered if they are compatible with the predator weights kit and also the following predator cue extension...

Nice to see you're still around to JAM, go easy on me now! :) Got a few months off coming up so thought why not, might even get to have a bash at a few balls along the way :)

Another interesting story that is kind of relevant... I first saw Neil Robertson play when I played in a Snooker and Pool event in Australia about 10 years ago, I had heard a lot about him but when I first saw him I was appalled at his lack of cue ball control; his long potting of course was...

Interestingly a female player has become the first female to ever qualify for the final of a men's qualifying event, about time too as I'd love to see mixed gender events: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-22726656

Thanks for your reply JB, I think top 100 is a whole different world to reaching the later stages of tournements (eg the last 32 TV stage). I could accept top 100 as a more plausible argument if you look at the players around that rank, although still extremely unlikely, top 32 I'm afraid there...

This thread seems to be morphing into a definition of talent now. In addition the COrey argument seemed to be two fold: 1) COuld he have made it if he started playing snooker when he was young, I think most people agree that of course he could. 2) Could he make it if he went over now at the...

134 in competition is certainly not to be sniffed at, Alex is much better at Snooker than even I thought, thanks for sharing. Alex obviously enjoys the game and I'm sure he would be in the UK right now making a shed full of cash if he thought he could.

No worries JB, I guess this is one of those hypothetical questions so it's hard to understand why it won't happen without a thorough knowledge of the game. It would probably be like me saying that a 35 year old female netball player could become an NBA all star if she knuckled down and...

Only saw it recently and have to agree with some of the comments Positives: - Pool players getting together and agreeing to try something new - Backers / organizers investing time and money to help the game Negatives - Needing new equipment is an appalling idea, pool has a big enough...

Good afternoon AZers, interesting post just as I popped in for a rare peak! :) Another way at looking at it is this maybe, how many "failed" Snooker players have done well at Pool, I only say failed because they wouldn't have made the switch if they were succeeding as the money is much better...

Hi guys, good to see many of you still playing 14.1! Anyone know if the 14.1 worlds (or whatever it's name is now) is going to happen this year and if so approx dates?

Hi Creedo, Nothing changes much then, nice to see some old faces still posting, I don't think JAM will ever change bless her :) Cheers Craig

I think Karl won the world 8 ball last year, Melling has a very impressive cue action but of course Daz has set the bar.

You too Fred, amazing how many old faces are still on here I bet!

You guys don't rate Boyes or Melling?

Awesome! Thanks Joe will check out the link. Darren who? Ha yes of course know Darren, great player! Did warn you guys that the Brits were coming, how have you been mate? I just went back to IT career and been living in London and sorting out property etc. back to the real world as some would...

Hi guys, long time no speak! Does anyone know if this is happening this year and if so what month / date? Big respect if anyone also has any contact details for the TD? Cheers

That sounded pretty awesome Chris, I'm sure their are endless threads! :) Website is in development ha, planning a new trip next year so maybe get to play a few tournaments and visit few new countries - sure be good to have another loooooong break! I speak to Colin now and again on FB, he...
