    Is Anyone Else Frustrated by the Lack of Live Scores & Updates in Cuesports?

    wouldn't it be cool to see major events scoring on apps like scoreandodds or the score or hell even like CBS sports or even ESPN. That would be super cool. The promoters of events could even add buttons to buy content in the apps and the companies can get advertising for pennies. Doubt it ever...

    Mosconi cup SOLUTION

    someone else said Edward Norton, like that suggestion but I'd like to see someone younger play younger Earl... Younger Earl: Miles Teller. He can do anything. 40s-50s Earl: Noah Wylie or Joaquin Phoenix Older Earl: Ralph Fiennes(could you imagine lol)

    DCC 1p rule change.....................!!

    may seem impossible but last year I played 2 matches in less time than these 2 guys played one match of banks. Guy I was talking to on the rail said it was approaching 4:15 when I walked away and it was 2-1 and 3-3 balls at that time. NO CLUE how it all went down but they seemed to be constantly...

    Rules Question - Why

    I've seen this a handful of times but never on video! Have had it happen to me personally twice oddly enough it actually benefitted me as I would've hooked myself both times but instead it became a safety my opponent had to deal with, Lucky lucky.

    When are MISCUE and SCOOP Shots Fouls?

    The vast majority of miscues are not so obvious to anyone but the shooter. And some are only very slight. Almost all miscues result in a horrible/losing/negative value shot anyway so does it really need to be a foul also? "Miscue" is just so vague but what isn't vague is that the result of the...

    French Lick Resort

    Have only had the pleasure of staying there once but really enjoyed the grounds. Will definitely go back someday. Can't imagine there being a "pool scene" on property though they definitely have the space for an event with tables brought in for it. Big problem being it's kinda hard to get to if...

    3 things you would change about pool

    always accompanied by "he is going to pot the whatever into the whatever" or "he missed the pot on the whatever" or "his ball potting isn't great" replace the word pot with a word that actually makes sense, pocket(ing, ed, etc). There are no pots anywhere on or around POCKET BILLIARD tables...

    3 things you would change about pool

    1. Never hear the word "pot" again 2. Standardized ball colors no matter what they are, make them all the same. 3. Rack for each other unless there's arguments/disagreements then neutral racker.

    Soft hitting custom cue maker cues?

    I'd reach out to Todd Carpenter. Guy is an absolute wizard at delivering the hit you want. His cues are typically very stiff but he knows all the tricks to dial it in how you want. You might get stuck on the phone for 30 minutes though!

    If the lag is a skill shot, there's a better way

    People are resistant to change in all walks of life. Just how it is. The change you are proposing is not in any way definitively better. Even if it were a little better(I don’t think it is) it’s not enough to sway people so that’s why your idea is getting such resistance. Keep thinking. Keep...

    If the lag is a skill shot, there's a better way

    Yeah I’ve tried to explain this to the league operator but so far it seems he doesn’t get it. Not gonna go all el chappo about it though :-)

    Calcutta

    A tale as old as time. It's a shame that more folks of unimpeachable integrity don't direct tournaments but I guess they have better things to do.

    If the lag is a skill shot, there's a better way

    Lagging is a skill. It is variable just like any other skill in the game. Nobody strikes it exactly the same every time for any shot including the lag. Then you have early match jitters etc etc. Everyone comes to the table for the lag in a slightly different headspace so there will always be...

    Sports Palace?

    Not the same of course but Bob Ogburn opened the Sports Palace in Columbia SC in the 90s and it was an incredible action spot for many years. Named after the OG of course. Where I grew up!
