    Idiotic Frozen Ball Rule

    yea I have played on some tables like that. Places where you could pinch the cloth like a fat baby's cheek. Pick it up about 3 inches off the table. You should never have a foul called on you due to faulty equipment. Just my opinion. I was playing some with a friend last week, and the cue...

    The Posters Who Do The Most Harm To This Forum.

    Joey It's just like you, always taking the high road. And at the beginning, I thought you were gonna go after some people. LOL..... Moderators wouldn't allow it anyway. Happy New Year to all who post, and all who just sneak around here in the dark reading the posts.

    Idiotic Frozen Ball Rule

    This rule We have run into something similar in Vegas. My tema mate was shooting away from an opponents ball an the ball rocked when the cue ball moved away, like it rolled into a divit. No contact was made with the ball, and my buddy made a good hit on his ball. Ref called a foul. It's...

    DCC ALL AROUND CHALLENGE - SCHMIDT vs BARTRAM

    Been a long time I had forgotten all about that stuff. Great drink. And the orange Crush too. My kids just made me buy Grape Crush at the store. It's still good too.

    DCC Predictions

    I didn't realize it. Is there an AZ room this year? Guess I missed the deadline if there is. Holidays are busy for me, being a single parent. I don't get on here as much as I did when I was married.

    Vernon Elliott

    Vernon I was told by a reliable source, that George Breedlove was playing Veron some 9-ball when George was younger and out playing on he road. The bet was at $4000, and Vernon looks over at George and makes a comment, "C'mon kid, let's bet somethin, so I can get out of my stall gear".

    Hilly Billy

    Yea He's still a great player, and has a lot of knowledge about the game. I believe he will be a great source of information. I will pass this one bit of info on about Charlie. I was at the Derby a few years ago. I had a poster for me, and a poster for my stakehorse who owns a small bar. I...

    A buddy hall story

    Doesn't matter Depending on the table, it's possible for the cueball to do that. Just my opinion tho. And the part about the cut on the 9-ball, just a great way to descibe a very thin, paper cut on the ball. Thanks for posting.

    Alleged padding of B&R's in the UPL tourney?? WTF?

    round robins When you start using a round robin format, you open up the chance for a little buddy work. Everyone knows poolplayers are notorious for working a system to get an advantage at the fast buck. That was obvious when the $500 bonus was offered for anyone who banked in an 8-ball, in...

    The funniest excuse you ever heard from poolplayer when they lost

    I won't mention names But my Nephew was playing a young player {who a short time later was a really well known pro player} at a tourney in Ohio. The guy was up 5 to 4 in a race to 7, and went after a hard combo on the 9. Missed it badly and my Nephew won the game, broke and made the 9, and...

    Rule About Cueball being Frozen to Object Ball

    Yes That video is very informative. But if you're playing in a league, or a tourney, you still need to clarify which rule they are playing. I liked the animated part of that video. It will give the player a little more of a clear picture on what is happening.

    Rule About Cueball being Frozen to Object Ball

    depends on what rules you're playing. BCA league rules, say you can shoot a frozen ball with any legal stroke, as long as you don't push or double hit the ball.{ Although, 2 years ago in Vegas, I had a foul called on me for jacking up on a frozen ball shot. I was actually shooting away from...

    Biloxi Mike Murdered!!!!

    Sad Sad news. I remember seeing him at DCC. Didn't watch much of his match, but saw enough to know he could play. I gotta agree with Jam from earlier in this thread. Public torture is too good for scum like this. But if the death penalty is all we can get, so be it. RIP Mike

    Shane vs. Donnie question

    I've been wading thru these posts This is just my opinion about this whole match. There seems to be an awful lot of talk, from the people who don't like Donny making stipulations about what game and the racking. I have to wonder, have any of you ever been to a pool tournament where there is...

    Shane vs. Donnie question

    Exactly Did he get to rack his own at the Open? I don't think so. Seems to me he did pretty well. If the worst match I ever lost, was getting beat by SVB, I wouldn't be too ashamed of it. Face it, there are very few who even want to get in the box with Shane. Then take away all those guys who...
