    8 or 9ft table for this game room?

    I’d try to remove or alter the bar (if possible).

    2023 AZ Billiards Straight Pool Challenge!

    Nice. Always good to see your runs. It was unexpected but funny how the video started with the performer entering from stage left.. 😄

    Who wants to test 14.1 Sequence?

    I watched the video with an open mind. It may be great for personal practice/improvement, but way too complicated for a two player game. Confusion, disagreements and misunderstandings about the scoring are inevitable. It will also take longer to draft an explanation of your turn than to make...

    Cloth replacement period for home tables with daily use

    At my 4 year anniversary with 860HR. With my current rate of play dwindling to around a few hours/week I’d say it will last a few more years no doubt. In the meantime the only issues are burn marks from breaking and all of the dimples around the foot spot from same. The dimpling is to the...

    Another rules question

    I’ve found this video a good reference for scoring 14.1 with beads.

    what's your 9 ball B@R % on your practice table?

    Curious why the balls are racked the same every time? Does it matter?

    Diamond tables add in top banner

    I would take (Diamond’s) photo usage as a compliment and call it a day. They aren’t making money hand over fist with it.

    Video from 1979 Greenway Billiards in Baton Rouge, LA

    Nostalgic with typical advice from that era: “Most important thing in any game is making the ball in the hole”.

    Film oddities or coincidences in The Hustler

    Sarah’s last name is Packard, but I always thought the car was an Oldsmobile. Been years since I’ve seen the movie and they barely show the car. I recall a ‘59 Chevy station wagon parked on the street in that opening scene.

    are old pool tables the same height as new ones?

    If tables haven’t grown in height over the past 150 years, someone should reconsider.

    Gold Crown 5 Review - Poor Quality, Poor Design, GC5

    Mine is a drop pocket, but I wonder the same thing about the ball return. But I agree it was probably designed and built that way. As far as dings from balls hitting the rails; could be a case of bad players, not bad tables. There’s always the type who needs to practice atomic breaks and/or...

    Gold Crown 5 Review - Poor Quality, Poor Design, GC5

    I’ve got to chime in being a 4 year owner of a V TE drop pocket. The bubbling and dings are disturbing but I’m guessing this table hasn’t been maintained well, nor does any one care about it. For all we know it was under a leaky ceiling. My pocket castings look like those pictured but the...

    Pool returns to ESPN….

    Went to all the trouble to search and record this on DVR. Not sure why I bothered considering the vast amount of free material on YouTube.
