I know he comes from an English/Blackball pool background, but does this guy do anything besides Chinese 8 ball? I remember him being the golden boy for that discipline for years, years back. I also remember other UK players being involved with the game, but it seems he's the only one who stuck...

Good morning all, was just having a discussion with someone at the hall about this and he feels that Josh Filler is without a doubt the best euro player ever. I myself still think Darren Appleton, during that time where he was winning everything, is probably the best all time with Jayson Shaw...

Why is it that a lot of players back then had a smaller window of space between their bridges and the cue ball? I noticed guys like Rempe, Mizerak and Buddy Hall didn't leave much space in between whereas Sigel, Earl and Efren had much larger spaces.

Almost every stream I watch (to be fair, it's non-tournament streams) they almost always play nothing but express ten ball. I rarely ever see any two players playing 9 ball. Is there a reason for that?

I only ask because I see a lot of people saying pool is making something of a resurgence with the way Matchroom has gone about doing their business worldwide. So, with this new curiosity for the game, why is there no entity looking to build a tour like we had with the PBT in the 90s? Or is it...

I was talking to an older coworker who followed pro pool on TV in the 80s and 90s and it is really fun always talking to him. He followed the game pretty hardcore and even went out to some non TV tournaments like the big ones out in California. Anyways, he mentioned Jose Parica. He told me that...

I have not played anything pool in about a year or so. I want to enter a 9 ball tournament on the big tables happening in my area in a few weeks and would like to get any tips on which drills would be best to work on before the tournament starts. I used to just rack up the balls and play...

From 2013 to 2023, the crop of players has certainly changed. Who do you have as your top ten players within that span?

Running under the radar this week. Stream provided by Griff's own youtube channel -->

Streamed provided by Griff's own YouTube channel.

If anyone cares, they are streaming the Open Division on the official APA Youtube channel --> Jeremy Jones is doing commentary and I have to say, very nice production so far. They've come a long way since I remember seeing this being held at the hall in Florida all those years. For a second, I...

Like wrestling, the show is so much better when the crowd is into it. And the players have shown their appreciation for it as many of them on social media have had nothing but positive things to say of how much the Vietnam pool community showed up to support this event by Matchroom. The best...

Women's Final features Lori Jon-Jones vs. Robin Bell while the Men's featured Steve Mizerak vs Oliver Ortmann. Interesting to see the TV side having to use side camera shots while integrating the AccuStats camera shot as the hard cam. Also, our own @jay helfert was doing intros and I believe...

I only ask this because someone in the chat for the turning stone stream asked a good question. they asked if the ten ball break has been figured out and is more predictable than the 9 ball break? Made me wonder if this could be true since the only ten ball events I know of are the two big table...

Accustats has given us a 14.1 match from this all around tournament featuring Grady vs Lou. Fun little match with commentary from Bill Incardona and the guy who promoted the event, Frank Zummo. Very interesting comments about nine ball in the post match interview.

Accustats has blessed us with another great video from their vault featuring Jim Rempe and Allen Hopkins. Grady Matthews and Jack Colavita are on commentary.

But I've always wondered, did anyone many decades ago ever keep records of who had ran the most centuries in competitive 14.1? I remember reading a while back here or on the Facebook group, that the average run in pro competitive 14.1 is something like 65.

Did not see a topic about this. It has been on all week with free live streaming on Youtube --> https://www.youtube.com/live/sIG83CQ0AjE?feature=share The vietnamese player Luong Duc Thien is facing Little Ko in the semi finals right now. Also, the vietnam billiards promotion channel has the...

Only asking because I know that the Eurotour has pro players playing on them but I do not know what kind of speed the other lesser known players are and the sizes of the fields. Is it purely an open non-handicapped tour or is it a Pro-Am tour? Would something like the Joss Tour be the...

I've ran two, one day events and feel the itch to get another tournament going. With 14 players, we lasted until almost 2am. Don't really want to experience that again. I'm looking to run a single elimination bracket but would like some insights from everyone here. I'm thinking first to 100...
