    my conversation with a team mate regarding playing league for money

    The entire draw of "going to vegas" seems so fabricated to me. Can't anybody just haul off and go to Vegas anytime. It's not like they pay your way there, is it?

    Earl strickland stroke analysis

    More interesting to me, and I'd be happy to be corrected, is earls ability to maintain his stroke at a top level as he's aged. Has. It held up well?

    What's the deal about people saying pool is dying?

    If somebody throws 2k into a pot you get guys showing up from like halfway across the country, lol. What else needs to be said? I know it goes without saying but it really would be great if there was money in pool. I'm speaking more from a different perspective, in that if there were 1000...

    Dead beat gamblers no money

    You're pretty much describing every pool player alive.

    Snooker players stance

    Well, you're right to some extent, and I didn't mean to offend the gay community. God forbid, I would never want a gay person to feel they look as lame as a snooker player does in his stance. I'm sorry to have offended any gays, but I'm not sorry that snooker players don't look cool when they shoot.

    Snooker players stance

    Call him a troll all you want, but it's true. Pool players look cool when they are at the table, and snooker players look like they just came out of a gay night club.

    Experiments in looking at the cueball while delivering the stroke.

    I could see this helping bad players. I can't see this helping top players as much because they're in dead strike all the time. Their concentration would be much better spent in the ob. Even top pros though I could see this helping on the break, maybe on jacked up shots too.

    PayPal issues!

    Glad it worked out. If you could contact the guy I wonder if you could work out just sending a check next time. For each 1000 PayPal will take 30 bucks.

    Has the quality difference between "custom" and "production" become negligible?

    I believe passionate cue makers will always make the highest quality cues. But anyone can believe whatever the hell they want.

    Dennis vs Tony rematch! Oct 5-8 Who yards like???

    Serious question. How do we know these matches aren't rigged? There is of course quite a bit of money on the side I'm sure.

    I wonder how the Pros can afford to travel all over the US and fly around the world.

    To a large extent, players don't go overseas. Of course there are exceptions. Put some decent purses up for grabs, and they would go. Filipinos can go because if they win it's like ten years of income in their country.

    Who do you think is the most naturally talented pro?

    I think the best player is the most talented. As far as I'm concerned that's Dennis or maybe Alex.

    SVB and Skyler Forfeit out of the 10 Ball Challenge Match

    Same reason any pro athlete who is making peanuts to play in a tournament would.

    Why is snooker profitable?

    It's simple if you break it down to what it's actually all about. Money. Businessmen in the snooker realm have found there are ways to market products and make money using snooker players. So those companies in turn add money to the snooker pots (which is the only way for pro athletes to make...

    Justin Bergman looking to gamble

    It's amazing that meucci and others won't pony up even those numbers you are mentioning, but in cash. To give their own shitty products as payment, way underpayment at that, takes serious gall.

    strange article on pool

    Such horseshit. U walk out of a non player's room with five dollars more than you walked in with nowadays, and it's like a huge score. Actually, that same figure applies to a players room lol. The first thing you learn when you stop playing pool is with hardly any skill at all you can make...

    New rules for 10/9 ball

    I actually do think we could use a new game. Ten ball isn't bad at all, but I personally am more intrigued when I see the entire rack in a rotation game. How about three points per game, nine ball Texas express rules, the five ten and 15 are all worth a point.

    Pool almost dead?

    I think a good, fairly objective barometer is espn. If it's on espn, people care, because if people care, espn is good about listening to their viewers and giving them what they want. With that much understood, pool is nowhere to be found on espn for the most part. The sport is essentially...

    Streaming is the best thing to happen to pool

    It would be really great if it got popular enough and Daniel could hire commentators like one pocket rich and bobby Leblanc, and pay them well.

    Tony Vs Dennis Chit Chat Thread

    The thing is Dennis is even laboring over offensive shots that are quite obvious. But, at this point I think he's going to win so more power to him, I just don't know how he does it is all his rythem is just garbage.
