I believe...... Grady's rules, were used in the mini 9 ball tournies at the Derby. It was pushout any time, but the shot you push has to be pocketed if given back to you. If your opponent shoots the shot, he must pocket it, or it's ball in hand. Having to push out a makeable shot, that your...

2 shot foul Instead of a single shot foul rule, getting BIH, they used to play push out, on any shot. So, a guy misses a shot and hooks you, you can push out, just like after the break. He gets the option to shoot, or pass it back. There is no easy BIH safety in this game. Guys who are the...

This my friend....... Might be the answer. Who needs bonus ball, when JC has the game to end all games. LOL.....

Nice post Steve Lets change the one pocket break too. At least 5 balls must hit a rail, and the cue ball, or 2 object balls must pass the side pockets,,,, might as well use a break box in the middle of the table too.

I remember a few of them Making balls on the break, and scratching. All balls spot. If the 1 was in the kitchen, it spotted too. BIH inside the kitchen. 1 shot BIH fouls after the break, but any balls pocketed on a foul or off the table, always spotted. They started changing rules to make for...

When 3 or more go in on the break It's called a thunderstorm

Personally I don't wanna see 2 guys "wrestle" for the first shot, when playing 9 ball or 10 ball. If I wanna watch strategy for first shot, I'll watch one pocket. If I wanna watch banks, I'll watch a bank match. First off, for the rack mechanics, take the rack back out of their hands. Use a...

Nah I like Warren Buffet over Bill Gates. Warren made his money, working and buying business's. Bill just did the software, and lets someone else invest all his dough. As for Oprah, she ain't close to 3rd. There are at least 5, maybe 10 more ahead of her.

It was a joke Not trolls, or anyone being serious,,, just a sarcastic post, meant to be funny.

I always try to explain to my kids, when you tell someone something They tell it, and it is just a little different,,,, and the next time it gets worse and worse, until the whole story is gone. And then, we have people who don't understand a sarcastic post, and wanna call the authorities. It...

My picks At the start, I picked Dennis and Shane, but that sounds like a great final match. Congrats to Dennis. I heard from a few people at DCC, that he is the "best 10 player in the world". Not too many wanting to play him, thats for sure

He has a 1st and 2nd And is still in the 9 ball. Don't see how anyone could beat him.

greens fees 2 years ago, I played the singles at VNEA, and my 2 friends who flew out with me, were playing the team event only. Tables are open all the time, so they practiced for free. Green fees are attached for each entry. It cost our team $175, or $35 each when you split it up 5 ways. Yea...

Too high,,,, no, trust me I thought that was a bit high when VNEA did this a few years back, but no, it ain't. Take into consideration the money you spend to warm up each day. Unlimited practice time when the tables are open. Then, what you spend on your matches, and hitting a rack or 2 before...

I like pickin the so-called under dogs So, Troy Jones.... He got 2nd last year.... But you gotta figure it all comes down to who gets the best starter shots when they come to the table. Ring games can be tricky, and the best overall player, can be the first out. I don't know how Justin plays...

I guess I just don't get it....... I ain't been on here much lately, and I guess I am missing something. Has the handicapping at amateur tournaments, and leagues, started to leak into the PRO level. Are we trying to handicap the top players, who worked so hard to be the best, and able to run...

I saw one for almost $10,000 I watched a friend of mine in Ft.Wayne, In. run out for a little over $1200 a ball. Balls on the break don't count, but you had to make one to shoot. I believe the 3 ball to the 4 ball, was risky shape, and he had to decide whether to cinch the shot for $1200 or...

Nice post Lou You're right, most people have no idea how tough this game is. Then, to be representing your Country, with all the lights and camera's, knowing that if you make any mistake at all, it's heading to youtube, so everyone and his brother can criticize you....... As for the young...

Just to throw in 2 cents on the pot conversation..... I have a customer who is a cop. He was telling me a couple of days ago, that the pot laws are about to change nationwide. I am assuming he was talking the Federal laws on transporting pot. He said for it to be a felony, you had to be...

He is mad as Hell,,,,, Probably because someone spray painted him, trying to make him look like Pepe Lepew.... Man, I'd be mad too
