    Rule #5 indicates player A is the loser of the game. The note could be a problem if player A is a dick. Sent from my iPhone using AzBilliards Forums

    9' table... Real world room size needed

    Well it looks like I've settled at 14'8" x 26'. The only obstruction at 14'8" is a 3.5" pole. I may cheat the table off center in the width of the space to gain 2" along the wall. I know I don't want the pole inline with the center pocket. What do you all think?

    Professional pool played on 7 footers... I don't get it

    First off I've had a long layoff from pool and have always thought real pool was played on 9' tables. Since I've returned to the game it seems that 7 footers are more common place. I can appreciate the table quality of a 7' Diamond and would buy one if it was my only option. Now to the point of...

    Fun Help thread

    I'd go with the blue/green. I just prefer it over the tournament blue and I think the blue/green is more appropriate for the table. i'll be ordering a Diamond and will be going with more traditional colors myself.

    Jay Helfert says 'Every other day to keep your speed up'...

    I'm looking at it differently. I want to pick my speed up. I'm getting a table. My plan is to work my way through Capelle's Practicing Pool front to back. I'll work on it most everyday.

    9' table... Real world room size needed

    Thanks for the replies they've been extremely helpful. I posed this question because I found the table manufacturer's charts very optimistic. I had figured 15' x 19' would be real nice. I now have a much better understanding of what will be needed. I really want a 9' Diamond and don't want to...

    9' table... Real world room size needed

    I am currently shopping for a new home and one of the requirements is being able to have a 9' table unobstructed. I've seen room size recommendations and question if they're really enough. What size room have you found to be the minimum. The width so far seems like the biggest obstacle.

    Why is every cue for sale now days a " monster "

    Monster doesn't bother me as much as "EPIC".

    First BNR

    Congrats! Just one of many to come. I don't remember my first but I do remember it being a great feeling. I took about a decade off before joining a VNEA league last fall. I've yet to do it during a match only before and after league play. Extremely frustrating! This week is the last week this...

    What is your tip diameter?

    I'm shooting with a 13mm right now and just ordered a cue at 12.95. I guess I'm not the norm.

    Lighting, what are my options?

    Those will work. I'd really like to retrofit a Diamond fixture but it's 20" x 60". Anyway to fill it with LED panels?

    Lighting, what are my options?

    My wife wants to do some renovating and gave the okay for a 9' Diamond. The problem at hand is a duct that will run above the table not allowing room for the matching light fixture in the proper size. I could get the small one centered above the table without interfering with the duct. Could I...

    1x2 Fellini style...tips up or tips down?

    I've always been a tips down guy but have been contemplating tips up. Others chiming in with their thoughts would be great

    Cue specs- 9 ball, 8 ball, straight pool, One Pocket, snooker, billirds

    Having really just returned to the game in last falls league session, I'm still trying to figure out my player let alone a certain cue for a certain game. In the past I typically played 8 and 9 ball and used one cue including breaking. I now no longer break with my playing cue which right now is...

    Two shafts...obsessive?

    Not at all. My sneaky's came with one shaft. I order a second immediately. Unfortunately one cue maker doesn't feel it's necessary to make me another one. I wish he understood how important it is for me to have two shafts.

    What sparked your passion to become a pool player?

    i'm not quite sure but I was interested in pool from an early age. I do know my Grandfather played in his younger days. May have been a contributing factor. I first started playing at home but not consistently and with nobody with any knowledge to learn anything from. I then started playing a...

    When will the Southwest cue market come crashing down?

    I ordered a wood combination I did not want and sold it. This in part because I was not playing any longer which I've since started up again. In retrospect I would have ordered it with cocobolo points. I also would have never stopped playing.

    When will the Southwest cue market come crashing down?

    That's where she lost me. I ordered a cue and asked for ebony points into Birdseye with 3 veneers and Birdseye handle the day I ordered the cue. Eleven years later I was told no. I ordered before the big push for ebony Southwest cues. I didn't just jump on the band wagon. I had even had a...
