    Are Top Level Pool Players Better Today?

    This is a very good post! The true greats have the ability to overcome whatever conditions that are there. Pocket billiards does not require the gift of speed to run the 100m or other physical gifts. The equipment is important. All of the greats throughout time have common abilities, the...

    Are Top Level Pool Players Better Today?

    I believe this is mostly correct. I do not believe that, a Mosconi for example, would dominate today. Two main reasons here, there are many times over the number a great players today than back then, who really dominates today, remember what this word means...Filler, Fedor, SVB, Albin, Ko's...

    The Ten Greatest Players Of All Time

    Doc, at the time this was written I'd say pretty good list. Looking at it today, I believe it will change top to bottom, a complete work over before the end of this decade, to the point that Efren will no longer be number 1 and someone just may tie or pass Stricklands WC9 ball wins. Our eyes...

    Jayson Shaw on a roll.

    I think SJM's comments here needs to save somewhere for all to hit a button to repost next time a thread comes up wanting to compare era's. This is well put and provides both sides there well earned due. Cheers!

    WNT $ 2024

    Some may argue, the only reason people knew of Fats was because of the movie, it's not like they were watching him on TV multiple times a month like the golfers and going out trying to emulate him as the golf fans did and still do.... but you can say of todays creme in pool, there are several...

    Jayson Shaw another huge high run of 560

    Twinklestump... hmm this is not telling at all. most on here don't buy anything that's not "sanctioned" or whatever garbage as counting which is all that I'm pointing out. A WC in a different game... I mean Ronnie O is the best snooker player, many times WC, but, in pool, probably not top 50 so...

    U.S. Open Events Won by Shane Van Boening

    So the other day I caught an episode of Rogan and he was discussing, lots of laughing really, the move Idiocracy... Guess I need to check that out. :unsure:🤪

    U.S. Open Events Won by Shane Van Boening

    well, I wasn't going to post this vid as I'm sure most of you seen it already, but since this thread continues.... This is already over 3-4 years old and now he has at least 2 WC's... again, some comments here just baffle the mind...

    U.S. Open Events Won by Shane Van Boening

    well put... some just can't let of the past, fight to keep relevance where there is none. Some of the comments on this one are laughable!

    Mike Sigel

    Agreed, SVB's net worth is way more than that without doubt!

    Mike Sigel

    yeah I'd say this article has it's fair share of embellishment. Don't get me wrong, Sigel is one of the greats, we all have heard of his record in final matches, but some of the US Open's and WC's wins don't hold water. I'm also a little skeptical on the net worth, but, if he's still living in...

    Jeez...Shane just ran 2 consecutive racks in banks. 10 balls.

    Yes. Search GriffsTV channel. US Open banks. The matches aren't split out yet, so you'll see 5 or 6 hour vids under the LIVE tab. Just about all the matches are there, just need to scroll... One pocket is on now.

    Jeez...Shane just ran 2 consecutive racks in banks. 10 balls.

    Yeah, I watched several of his matches on his way to this win. I have never seen bank pool at this level before, not ever. I'm sure some oldies are going to bring up some ancient 5" pocket runs, not even close. Tight pockets, banking with shape and world class competition. At one point he was at...
