    Could a B player run 100 balls on the world record table?

    Perma-rack. Doesn't affect roll-off in the breaking area any worse than the divots on a well trained table. I can't believe it's not more popular, works great.

    JAYSON SHAW BREAKS 626!

    Naw. His run was 714 balls pocketed legally. His SCORE in a game with that run would be 713.

    714 seems like.

    Eagle Eye Takes Aim at 14.1 High Runs

    lol, I woke up and found the stream about 4 racks before he hit it. Good timing by me.

    Ideal right hand (if R handed) position on cue?

    Yup, what these guys said. To put it another way, when your tip contacts the cueball, your hand should be at the bottom of the arc of your stroke. Use whatever grip accomplishes this for each shot. There is no "one" grip position. It changes based on the stance, reach, and bridge requirements of...

    Eagle Eye Takes Aim at 14.1 High Runs

    According to who? You're the pocket police? If the table is in spec, it's in spec. What more do you want? Maybe they can hire you as arbiter before the next event to decide which tables play up to your imaginary criteria.

    Eagle Eye Takes Aim at 14.1 High Runs

    In the sponsors, this logo keeps coming up. It's bugging me that I can't decipher what it's supposed to be. OMVRT? DMUAT? Pretty terrible design, anyway.

    Eagle Eye Takes Aim at 14.1 High Runs

    Watching now, had followed the thread a bit earlier. With all your negative comments I didn't expect what I'm seeing. For the most part he's playing really good patterns. I play a lot of straight pool, and I'm trying to pick the patterns as he goes. Whenever he picks a different path from me...

    YOUR greatest shot ever.....

    This shot came up in 8-ball league for ero. Overran my shape on the 8 and had to get a bit creative. After league I set it up at home just to see if I could do it again, the cueball and 8 were a little closer together when I made it in the match.

    American Straight Pool Championship - Oct 19th to 23rd *free* live streaming

    "Supposed to" is arbitrary. If the rules of the tournament state that the competitor can continue his run after locking up the game in order to make an attempt at the event's high run prize, then that's the new "supposed to". At my house, we play almost exclusively cash game straight pool to...

    I'll take Earl to win it all. Edit: He's playing now, looking good so far:

    Do cue tips go bad over time?

    I just put a 25+ year old lepro on my buddy's cue. It seemed fine.

    Nothing. I defy anyone to name a more fun table than a Valley 8'.

    Accu-Rack dissapointment

    It has essentially no impact, they cause no more roll-off than the divots of a properly trained table. I agree that you can't pack it to the bar, but there's no downside for a home table. I'm just a huge fan. After my table, I think it's my best pool related purchase ever. Edit: For context, I...

    Accu-Rack dissapointment

    Perma-rack: https://forums.azbilliards.com/threads/perma-rack.518422/ It's hands-down the best racking system I've ever used. I don't know why people are so hesitant to try it, but I shill for it wherever I can.

    People bitching about 7’ tables

    I used to be an anti-barbox snob. I got better. You should extend your rant to include all the tight pocket nazis too. Yeah, let's make the tables so hard that any new players lose interest. Bold strategy, Cotton.

    I bought a KONLLEN Amazon CF cue to try

    My buddy just got a JFlowers cue (I'm 90% sure they are the same co. as Konllen) and aside from the cheesy "inlay work", I'm super impressed with it for the price. Good build quality, and the shaft is lower deflection than my Jacoby Black. I like the CF ribs in the butt end, I think that's a...
