I find it funny to hear anyone ever second guess the abilities of Alex, and Corey in ANY cue sport. Don't forget those 2 spent a ton of time on the road and I don't think Alex would let Corey waste his time unwarranted. Alex can flat out play snooker, and Corey has found a new way to win at...

put the CB even with the corner ball you intend to hit....then play a half ball hit on the corner ball with no spin and the only thought is enough speed to get the CB back to the end rail. I have been using this method for years! I learned it years ago from a VERY good player up here in 14.1...

I'll play Devils advocate, but to pony up $500 and be expected to pay green fees, and only have a shot at cashing in the top 3? that is a tough weekend IMO. For me.....the odds are better to pocket the $500 and take a shot at one of the first guys to get knocked out of the event. I'm not trying...

Why not do a poll for the top 10 players who actually had a career or business and made a living outside pool, and were still able to play the game at a top level!! I'll start the poll with Jack Calovito! and follow it up with Danny Barouti! G.

nothing like having a great experience with a new purchase huh dude! :) My go to player is a J&J with an OB1 shaft. I got them on special at the J&J america site. One thing I have learned over the years is price sometimes has no bearing on the hit, playability, and finish of a great playing...

ok my guess is you are a structural engineer? :) or an aspiring one? don't forget the table weight is dispersed on just the 4 legs, so the calculation has to take in consideration if you set the legs over a floor joist, or between the joist. But in any event....a gold crown is about the same as...

yea man, just stay at the Casino there, it's more fun not having to commute. You know, you can always pack some easy to make grub in a cooler and eat in your hotel room. Hell for that matter bring a microwave and cook your own. G.

Hell yea I'd love to listen in on the two guys conspiring on how to run out, or how to trap the single player. I think one pocket is perfect for listening in as we all play it differently, and I like to hear another guys perspective on table situations vs what I would do in any given situation. G.

Nice to see Tony Ellin again, and Jay Swanson! I also have a set of the cards down in my pool room. I had 5 sets we purchased years ago when they came out and I was convinced they would be $$$ some day.....but I kept the best set and gave the others away! G>

NICE write up! I have a question.....in long sets like this when there is a turn around....I always try to figure out if the "better" player "woke up", or learned something? or did the other guy tire out and fade?.....what happened here? thanks, G.

there goes the whole thread right there!....I wanted to argue and stuff, and see people get booted.......you wrecked it by quoting John! :) G.

tough from the pic but the bumper screems McDermott G.

is that a few 100 sets? or a few sets for 100? G.

I hear you guys, and why would anyone NEED to post "nice cue "great price there" etc that has no bearing on the sale except to help bump a friends thread. It happens and I have gotten thank you PM's for doing it.......so i stopped! On a state gun board I am a member of you CAN IN NO WAY bump...

Yura is a good dude!I had the pleasure of meeting him and being schooled in 3c last week! Gerry

yes absolutely! alt break sucks.....the "x" balls past headstring SUCKS more! no player should EVER relinquish the table after breaking in a ball.....never G.

I feel slow play has been one major chink in the armor of pool AND especially 14.1 for years! How many times have we all watched accu-stats with a time clock and the players play better?! Abafrigginjillion maybe? 14.1 is NOT a slow game IMO.....yes you must think and consider options, but to...

I was a very long time naysayer when it came to systems. Until I hit a plateau I could not overcome.....I turned to learning systems and found Hal pretty quickly. What I did was study snooker, billiards, pool, and found that tho the games differ, the system I use works with them all because you...

WOW, After seeing Pedro play at the nationals...if he is ranked 24th? I would REALLY like to watch #1 thru #23 play sometime. :) G.

My addition.... Allen Hopkins. Maybe a little past his prime, but, a few years ago at the DCC 1P challenge Allen took his turn and MANY of the Pros showed up to watch the master. Not to mention he is in the one pocket hall of fame. I don't know too many players lining up to test him at one hole...
