    Thank you CSI/Predator for the live stream!

    Thanks again to Jim, George and Jeremy... In all those shots where I was in between choices of how to play it really helps to hear how to weight them from another viewpoint. If I was on the warpath of youth, I would have jumped a ball or two just from the great commentary! tap tap tap... td

    Thank you CSI/Predator for the live stream!

    George is what most would consider a short stop player here in Az, and I’m sure He is intelligent enough to always try and make his fellow commentator look good. Really wasn’t intending this as a bashing thread, but hey whatever trips your Trigger. Td

    Worst case od slow-playing

    I'm Not a slow player.... I'm not a slow player, but probably not the fastest. Being older and having tremors.. I just have to take a little more time, unless I have a few beers (which I try to limit to a couple). A while back, playing in a tourney, I run into a young man. After a few shots...

    Can Practicing Exclusively on Tight Pocket Tables be a Detriment to Your Game?

    Dean, I'm sure you have connections with MG and RKC... Have one of them trade your rails for some looser ones of the right kind from another like table. Plenty of people here want to tighten up their table, and if you can find one of them that works .. just exchange rails (just rubber, I...

    Can Practicing Exclusively on Tight Pocket Tables be a Detriment to Your Game?

    I always felt that unless you were playing in dead punch, and had the world on a string..that tight tables just made you play differently. When you get used to just a little less juice, and a little more sacrifice of the spot.. then you aren't used to using all your horsepower, and when you...

    Home table guys, how much do you practice a week?

    I love that table and choice of stain. Nice!! Care to weigh in on pros and cons of it... offline if you want. Probably one of my top contenders if/when I ever move. As to time on the table...I get my daily dose of just working the puzzles on the felt, until I tire of it...however long that...

    Camel or Gold

    I have whatever color is on the table in post 10... As a decorator touch, it looks really nice in my room...but the above concern is to be noted, as well as if you have less than great lighting the edges of the balls can blend in and be more difficult to see (I'm on the older side, so this...
