That looks like a great place, but they need to work on the English used in their introduction page, yikes. :frown:

Hey I've got a flooring related problem also: I put carpet and padding in my basement, and now I cannot get my basement bar box to roll right. I get it levelled and the next day it has 'sunk' or something into the carpet and the roll is off again. It isn't particularly deep carpet or padding...

Depends entirely on your league operator.

I don't have any information from you, but wow...that is a super nice looking table! I like how the legs are angled and the fluting, looks sweet. More pics, especially full side view, or from when it was all together?

hahah those are great, especially this one. I have played position for the wrong ball with ball in hand soooo many times. Normally a sign you have had too many beers while playing...well at least for me. ;)

Damn, wish I would have known about this sooner, I woulda gone up and donated my entry fee to this, ha ha :)

DCT events are freakin awesome to watch, tons of good competition and matches! If anyone out there wants to watch some pool, this is a super event to check out, and its a free stream to boot!

I think people are comparing apples to oranges. Sure, people who play pool generally know Mosconi and (today) Lee, but the average person on the street who knows nothing about pool would probably have no idea who either of them are/were. But I would bet money just about everyone, even if...

Fats, no question. Even people who know absolutely nothing about pool know the name "Minnesota Fats" and assume he must have been the Babe Ruth of pool.

I remember that match, its off an old accustats tape. They were hill/hill, danny d breaking, 9 almost goes in. Danny is yelling at the crowd, but the 9 does not drop. However another ball does drop. Danny goes for a combo, and while it is rolling starts his routine again. He misses the combo...

So you played a bank and it went in and it was just 'luck'? Tell that to the bank pool players at the DCC every year. :rolleyes: Tell your buddy to bring handkerchiefs next time you play if he is gonna cry like a ***** all night over a shot. ;)

That payout schedule is pretty great. I played in an in-house league not too long ago that was $40 per team per week (not counting greens fees and dues to nationals of course). 12 teams. 16 week season. Payouts for 1st 2nd 3rd. 1st place was around $550, 2nd was $400 and 3rd was $150. Where...

Agreed, that is one fantastic table, congrats!!

Chuck I would hate to be a police officer asking you for a witness statement or suspect description, good god. :D

Who is this commentator? He's pretty good.

:lol: That's exactly where the name came from. I had hobbled my foot once and was serving beers and Jude started calling me that and it stuck, haha

Oh I am not dissing the skill level of anybody, just saying I do not like the scoring format. :) I think if a guy makes the 9, he should win the game of 9 ball, period. I understand the annoyance Justadub mentions, but people poking at the 9 constantly trying to sh*t it in don't bother me a...

That's all that matters, so no, would not call him on it. All the "well its in the rules...." is so chickensh*t. What happened to not being a dick? Who actually feels like they 'won' after doing something like that? I think little things like this speak volumes about someone's character, or...

They call it 9 ball, not "1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-ball." Points are for straight pool. :)

Nothing against APA or any league, but I can't stand the scoring system APA uses for 9 ball. The point-per-ball stuff isn't 9 ball and sucks. If you want to count balls sunk to determine a winner, then go play straight pool! And if a guy keeps getting "robbed" because he makes most of the...
