I just picked up a Schmelke sneaky yesterday for $30 and I can honestly say I love the way it hits. I actually like it better than my McD with a GCore.

I think they base it all off of total innings. I dont think win/loss plays into the rankings as much as we think, which seems really dumb.

We won both 8 and 9 in our first round of playoffs. I stunk it up against a 4 in 9 ball but squeaked out a 13-7 win. We got down 6-2 in 8 ball and our very good 4 beat a good 6 in a hill-hill game to leave us with only one possibility of winning, sweep their last player. I beat her 4-0 to...

I most definitely see the benefit in doing drills. My conundrum was based strictly on the position run out drills vs just breaking, finding a pattern and attempting to run-out. I hold all of y'alls opinions in very high regard and it seems that most people are saying to continue doing the...

I'm pretty sure that the 10k hours is meant as a rule of thumb and not an absolute. Of course it will take some far less and some far more but the number is meant to be an average amount of time it would take the average person to master a task or at the very least be extremely proficient. A...

You all are making pretty good points for continuing with the drills. This game is so crazy. Sometimes it feels like Im not improving because its such a marathon of learning and the improvement seems to come in small increments.

So Ive been trying to concentrate on doing a lot of the Zero-X position drills and I cant help but wonder to myself, "why not just play?". Explain to me how setting up the same position drill over and over is more beneficial than trying to figure out the pattern post break and running it out...

AMEN Brother!

Im pretty certain it has veneers. I asked if it was a sneaky and he said no. As soon as I see it I will take pictures and upload them so you guys can get a better idea of the true value. I know its hard to say with my limited info.

So I don't know much about custom cues at all so I am leaning on all of y'alls expertise here. A guy at the pool hall I play at says he has a mint condition 4 point TS Hoppe with 3 shafts that he wants to sell me for $1200. Now I havent seen said cue yet (He is bringing it to the hall...

OK, so I know this is a response to a very old post, but I FINALLY pulled the trigger and played in my first 9 ball tournament last night. Most of the guys there (about 30) were warming up for a bigger tournament today so there were quite a few decent shooters. I have been putting off...

Hatch has played great but the matches Ive watched with Oscar it doesnt seem like he has played as well as I know he can. I really like Hatch's fire. You have to love how much he seems to want to win this. I hope he skunks Filler today.

I play guys I cant stand all the time but I still shake their hand after a match. Hatch doesn't look good here.

Buying a home table is one of the best decisions I've ever made. My game has gotten better exponentially over the last year. You won't regret it. It's a beautiful table my friend.

The fact is 9' tables are for players. Almost everyone that I know is not a "player" and would prefer to knock balls around on 7' bar boxes. If a banger gets the bug they will eventually graduate to, if not buy, a 9' table. From a business point of view, having more 7 footers in your room...

This is my second session as a captain and there are few things Ive learned. 1) You will not be competitive as a team until all of your guys are ranked correctly, unless they are all better than 4's. It usually takes about 5 weeks. 2) A full roster of 8 is much more competitive than only...

There's a guy in San Antonio APA with over 800 matches and an 83% win percentage. Hes the best player Ive ever played in my life. Not saying hes the best ever but hes the best Ive ever played. Great guy too.

Really? Why would you even post this? Negative people just really suck the life out of everything. This is a beautiful table that the man is very proud of. Why say anything at all? Good grief.

Is there a live stream for the APA Masters Final today? I would be extremely surprised if the team from San Antonio isnt in the finals.
