    What is a Shortstop?

    Jay - you probably were in Denver after Danny’s best years. In his prime it took a really good pro to beat him. This was 80s and 90s. By 2000 or so his game had declined a bit so shortstop was probably an apt description. At that time I think some short stops around Denver (90s)were more...

    Help identifying a possible hustler

    I think that’s either California or Texas. Nobody’s ever seen a picture of either of them before.

    It’s time to shame chalk grinders

    And they came back and did it? Lol. I would laugh in your face. Not that I use baby powder - because I know how to use soap.

    Diamond bar boxes are trash

    There was a beautiful refurbished one for sale here in Chicago last year. I bet it played perfectly. I don’t remember the price but it seemed reasonable to me. $2k maybe?

    Diamond bar boxes are trash

    This is my experience too. I normally play in a room with excellent Diamond bar tables set up perfectly. Then I go play a tournament at a different place that also has diamond bar tables. Some rails are dead so banks are inconsistent. Some of the rails aren't aligned properly so some of the...

    Trip to Chris's Billiards

    I believe the Morton Grove location is the original location and run by the same people. I've been trying to get there for a late lunch (less crowded) but have just been too busy. Maybe this week as I'm coincidentally in Evanston right now.

    Who spends the money? Just the money math facts.

    Bummer. I remember the old days in Tulsa at Magoo’s and the palace. Good times.

    Who spends the money? Just the money math facts.

    Yeah. But they all ride around in the same car…:) That’s just the reputation when I lived in Kansas. I always thought that was a funny line.

    Who spends the money? Just the money math facts.

    There are no pool amateurs in Oklahoma. Only pros. :) If you were to stop a random car in Tulsa with 4 dudes in it. Three would have Fargos over 700.

    Did Mark Wilson finally kill "aiming systems" ?

    Doesn’t that seem like an aiming problem as well?

    Did Mark Wilson finally kill "aiming systems" ?

    I agree that straight in shots are usually stroke/stance related. But I see more people miss shots that are difficult to aim. I think in those cases they could benefit from either an aiming system or hard work training themselves to see the proper aim/contact line.

    Did Mark Wilson finally kill "aiming systems" ?

    Then why are people more likely to miss back cuts into the pocket?

    Poll for American Pool Fans. Are you watching Matchroom's WNT World Pool Championship live? If so, how?

    I wonder how many pool fans sign up and cancel and how much revenue that is to DAZN. It doesn't seem like it would be enough for them to insist on keeping it in the US. Pool doesn't even seem like an afterthought to them - no mention of it in their corporate report. Hard to find on the...

    Small pockets ruining the game

    My point was valid and well illustrated by my example.
