    Mosconi Cup: Did the Referee make and error ?

    Rodney's case was different, as the rule is that a player must not lay his cue stick on the table and leave his hand out of it, as a means to calculate angles etc. The referee must see if there is a chance of this calculation, while for example if you have to tie your shoe laces and you put...

    most 10 ball packages?

    Che Wei Fu run a set against Jeffrey De Luna in 10-ball WC 2008, but it was from Jeffrey's break. That makes it 1+7. The funny thing is, that he fluked a ball in, with a call-shot rule. He rattled a ball which came back from the other side cushion and went in. Jefffrey was steaming. Sent from...

    World Pool Team Championship Links

    Saw the last balls of hill-hill at least thanks to this. I guess Oscar was leading quite a bit, was it even 6-3 (R-to-7)?

    I mean the drop comes but I cannot find how to change the quality. This is a screenshot to the drop, and the settings and global settings didn't give me any help :(

    2014 World 9-Ball Championship

    Long race 10-ball, played in Diamond tables and especially in USA, Shane is the safest bet, but several filipinos can challenge him and occasionally beat him in that. I don't know if Alcano or Orcollo catches their highest gear, who will win, but Shane's break overall is by far better. Then...

    2014 World 9-Ball Championship

    Don't fool yourself either, CJ. Taiwan is an awesome country with enormous pool-culture. It is full of world class players. The thing is that they don't speak english and are bit isolated due to that and cultural differences. They are not that fond of traveling due to the expenses alone, where...

    Yes, it was a rhetoric question ;)

    Small turnaround at US open? where are all pool pros?

    I wonder if Efren is happy he chose pool instead the other options ;) With Orcullo I could wonder the same. But yes, even Efren says it's hard and recommends going to school, but the point is you have to love it. No one is waiting Tiger Woods lifestyle and only fools think that equals...

    How much does different woods change the hit/feel in the forearm?

    Thanks again. I'll ask about this core material from the manufacturer and I guess I'll be fine ;)

    How much does different woods change the hit/feel in the forearm?

    Hi again, Thanks for all the answers. :) If you could still enlighten me a bit what do you mean by "core"? Is it the wood from which the points are made of and which "melts" into the upper part of the forearm which has the joint screw in the end, or is it something else? (sorry, english is not...

    How much does different woods change the hit/feel in the forearm?

    Hi there, I'm thinking of changing my cue and have been wondering how much does it matter for the playability which of the (common) wood species you use on the butt, especially of course in the forearm. I remember some years ago I tried same cuemaker's two different butts in a same shaft, and...

    Is Mike Sigel the best ever?

    That's true, even used the phrase "imo best ever", but then again it was the IPT crew which was interviewing him, so maybe he was told to say so :p Edit: Even though he has said so, it doesn't mean Mike was better than Efren himself, which I believe he wasn't.

    Observations of Mika & SVB's "Gamesmanship"

    The funny (or not so funny) thing is that many of the Pinoys do it. Dennis Orcollo must be the messiest player on earth, and I've been thinking he must do it intentionally, as he(/they) must know westerners are much more particular, play in more clean conditions and get bothered of these things...

    Observations of Mika & SVB's "Gamesmanship"

    I didn't see the first day but it seems Mika has been "in a bad mood". I'm surprised nobody takes into consideration that he lost the previous day a World Championships final, and that was a second year in row in that particular tournament, that particular Title. And FYI, it happened against...

    smart words from Billy Incardona, any opinions?

    Two sides of the story I'm not disagreeing here, but I want to bring into consideration also the "momentum factor". If you're thinking it rationally, what Billy said is completely true. That's the same school as the idea: "You're playing alone there, against the balls and the table and the...
