    Is THIS What It's Come To ?

    It sounds like this didn't work? Am I correct in that this place is now called Strokers II and it is back to a pool hall (read thread on Strokers II)?

    Is this a foul?

    Definately a foul due to the lack of forward motion. I think Byrne showed this in Gamebreakers and said it was good for cheating your little sister at home, but not much more (or something to that effect).

    WTB: Schuler Joints

    I'd like to buy Schuler joints (butt joint and or shaft joint). Also, if anyone has an old butt or shaft that the joint can be taken out of and reused (I don't know if this is possible).

    Snapping cues

    Don't Know I took it as "here is a pro doing it, it can't be bad", but I could be wrong.

    Snapping cues

    Control I agree that breaking the cue is a classless act, but not as bad as breaking someone else's stuff or punching somebody. The problem I have is that other people learn from it. A kid sees this or Earl breaking his stick picks up on these things. I agree Johnny was not trying to break...

    Blue Diamond Chalk Is Ready!

    Chalk mechanics From what I've read on chalk, this chalk would be finer and not as clumpy, which allows it to get into the tip better. I doubt the difference is in the abrasiveness, but how it interacts with your tip. I don't know what you mean by the effect on your cloth or shaft, the only...

    Blue Diamond Chalk Is Ready!

    Highly Recommend The fact that I highly recommend this chalk should mean nothing to any body, and that does not bother me in the least. Me recommending something versus a pro recommending it is a big difference. I will tell you that this chalk outperforms green and blue master chalk. I have...

    Should this have been legal?

    Our 8-ball league rules state: Player cannot raise cue above elbow when attempting a masse shot. Doing so is a foul. Jump shots and scoop shots are also illegal." Another rule specifically disallows double hits, saying they are a foul. In a league tournament, my opponent's c.b. was within...

    Pool balls affect play?

    Balls were really clean The balls were clean and polished so I discounted the dirty-ball effect. This happened in North Dakota and the tables came from a vendor in the state. The state-wide vendor association that puts on these league tournaments seems to have a history of trying to slow down...

    Pool balls affect play?

    I just played in a bar-table 8-ball league tournament that had 96 league teams. Good players that are used to breaking the racks well noted that the balls broke apart extremely poorly even though the rules allowed the breaker to rack his own rack. Some say that the league is using balls that...

    Which Moori's are real?

    It does say moori Both sets of tips say moori right on the tip as expected. The bottom ones have what may be the new logo, but it does say moori.

    Which Moori's are real?

    clarification The first photo shows the back of the packages, the second shows the front in the same order. Looking on the web, it seems they have adopted the logo where moori is outlined rather than written, which would make sense that the bottom ones are the newer packaging. EDIT: THE...

    Which Moori's are real?

    I ordered some moori's off the web and they are significantly different than the others I've ordered. I took pictures of the front and back of the packaging. The pair on the bottom is the new pair, the pair on the top I've had for a few months. Is one set fake or did they change their...

    Center Ball Banking

    Bugs video I would be interested if there was a way to do it correctly. I couldn't send a private messages due to the mailbox quota.

    I have a weak side on cut shots

    Get good advise I know there are a lot of smart pool players on this site, but some of the advise people get would have me beating my head against the wall. You can tell someone to practice 40 hours a week, but if they are not practicing the right things and learning from the practice, it can...

    WTB: Schuler Items

    I am interested in several Schuler items. I want a masse cue, plain pre-2002 cues, shafts, and the schuler joint tool. I'd even consider a predator or tiger shaft with a schuler joint.
