    Buffalos Pro Classic 2026

    Not sure if I have COPD or not but for the last 15 or so years anytime I'm around smoking I pay for it for several days. It's one of the reasons I backed away from the game. Where I live we only have one legitimate pool room and they smoke in there. Absolutely sucks. One night of the week for...

    Rethinking the Derby City Classic ...

    If they insist on keeping the Bigfoot move it out to the casino floor with a rope around it standing room only. Absolute chaos is the only way it could ever be interesting to me. Have the players do a slot pull to decide if they have a shot after the break or if they have to play safe. Anything...

    Does anyone know the dirt about DCC streamers?

    People can say whatever they want about the Post Up guys and most of it may be true but it's pretty wild to me how much better their equipment is than so many others that have been at it forever. Their cameras are fantastic. And while I think the screen is often "too busy" at least they put...

    Fedor/Demarco

    I thought the same thing watching it live BUT upon further review I think it was Fedor's ball but then again I didn't go all the way back.

    Derby Table Assignments

    Some go to certain streamers tables, some go to the main tv table. The rest are as random as they can be from what I can tell. I think 38 is one of the streamer's tables but I could be wrong.

    Derby city so few Pros

    I wasn’t meaning this year specifically. I mean before any match is played.

    Derby city so few Pros

    And the staff that works the event all live driving distance away. The venue at that time of year almost certainly gives them an incredible deal considering it would be a ghost town without the pool players.

    Derby city so few Pros

    The payouts are trash because $0 and I mean absolutely $0 of the buy backs goes to the tournament prize pool. That money goes to master of the table payouts(the rest Diamond keeps) which only maybe 12 guys can possibly get a piece of and truly only 3-5 guys can win the top prize generally...

    Derby City Banks Observation

    Yeah as true as all this is, it's hard for certain demographics to adopt new technology when they've done something "the old way" for so long. But as some of the 40-50 somethings age out of these events it'll get better.

    Derby City Banks Observation

    Yeah unfortunately for the viewers at home all the players aren't as diligent at updating their score on the iPad. Especially ball by ball. It's something we all have to get used to. 5 years from now I think players will be a lot better about it.

    Derby City Banks Observation

    Yeah what you can't see is there's a wire rack with a divider in the middle just below the ball return and each player will pick a side and keep their balls in that rack until the game is over or they have to spot one due to fouling.

    Derby City Banks- last 13

    Derby city so few Pros

    People always say the payouts are horrible which is why so few TOP professionals don't come. And that's likely the largest factor. But how bout for the guy that has no chance to win the event but could win a handful of matches, that guys BEST CASE scenario is to win like maybe $200 in any...

    Scoreboard App

    Just downloaded your app and played with it a little. Like the style of it. Adjusting a score is a little tricky but figured it out after some trial and error as it isn't obvious you have to slide your curser or finger across. Not sure how to adjust it if a score needs to be removed... Anyway...

    Dominguez vs Guama race to 50 for 80+ per side

    They wouldn't play one short race for that much. A best of 7 best of 5 etc. But anyway.

    I bet it's a monster. Dm me a couple pics if you have time would love to see it.

    Dominguez vs Guama race to 50 for 80+ per side

    Add me to the list of "the race is too long" There's just no CRUCIAL racks that are obviously crucial at the time like in shorter races. Drama doesn't exist unless it gets close with 5-10 racks to go. Players and backers by all means play the game you want to play but for entertainment sake best...

    Hard to Find the Center of the Cue Ball

    center axis, maybe 30% or even more but what people mean when they say centerball its more like 2% it's just not exactly a useful skill to hone. Go ahead and INTEND your spin rather than be surprised by it.

    Last year Todd Carpenter was there but not sure if he's coming again or not. Guy makes phenomenal cues, give him a look if he's there.
