    Champions’ pool (8 members for team Russia) live, May 26 - June 20

    It looks weird and funny and at times stupid. But as long as it is a special TV event promoted by a bookmaker company, they order the looks to their taste. Walls, players jerseys, etc. A triangle is a mere advertising tool here, nothing else.

    Lowest Deflection Wood Shafts

    As for wood, I heard one or two pros betting their damned lives that would be Cuetec R360. That noted, none of them both plays with that shaft now. Both switched for carbon, and primapily for sponsorship reasons. So just another sign that low deflection is not everything for a player. Had it...

    Amazon Ball Cleaner - Any Good?

    Dunno is Amazon offers those cleaning machines at the same price as AliBaba/AliExpress, but they are pretty much the same. Check them out, there is a chance the price asked plus shipping from China is still lower than locally ;)

    Buddy Hall - RIP

    I'm wondering if Alfie Taylor is still around. Wrote a fascinating book reflecting his pool travels around the country!

    Chinakhov, Stepanov, Dudanets and other top locals, live daily (May 26 - June 20)

    One of the matches involved a shoot-out in order to break the tie! Turned out Ruslan is struggling with some serious health issues, namely pinched nerve in the spine. Apparently it influences his overall stamina and condition, as at times he even can be seen limping pretty severely. Still...

    Not gonna post every single match here, as long as all of them are available via the links posted above. But there is some notable, like: Most quality gamewise of first 4 matches, round one: Just for the sake of the players you might remember, Stepanov and Dudanets (as a youngster he used to...

    What did I do wrong? DigiBall video.

    If your rails grip good enough, there is an option to bring the cb towards the centre of the table with inside English. Follow plus right-hand English in this particular position. Another easier one is just playing shape for the long bank to the corner. Provided you were doing your homework in...

    There is a chance to watch some 9-ball performed by former and current members of Russian national team competing at an invitational. The requirement was to feature those who won a title at national level or higher (European or World championship; well, there is one who won the 9-ball Worlds...

    Champions’ pool (8 members for team Russia) live, May 26 - June 20

    'Champion's pool' got to be the name of this invitational event for 8 players. Ruslan Chinakhov and Konstantin Stepanov must be more familiar to international audience. But other six are a good match to them. Links to watch, whichever works for you: https://www.youtube.com/@WorldOfPool...

    Buddy Hall - RIP

    Rest in Peace, one of the greatest cue artists! Buddy's video on Clock System once was an eye-opener for me, really helped to improve on that cb paths understanding. True legend. Thanks for everything, for all great emotions and things to remember.

    Are Corey and Melling the 2 best at dissecting an 8 ball rack ever?

    Defining who are best at dissecting the rack is pretty easy really, once one addresses the matter properly :) Those are players I'd call "natural thinkers", i.e. their playing style is as such, and rarely changes. Omit great shotmakers, life-saving shots, etc. - just recall which players behave...

    WNT and WPA. Frazer says…

    why should it be different? The steps are known well beforehand: a) serve 6 months off b) pay $500 to local national federation c) welcome back, start from scratch.
