    FS - Position Play for High Runs - Johnny Holiday - Rare pocket billiards/pool book

    Hi Folks, I was once a fanatic in this forum, as some of you may know. I had planned to list some things within the last year, but now I'm finally getting around to listing some of the pool items that I will never be using due to my back injury. I feel somewhat obligated to give you a folks...

    Hi folks, it's been over 5 years since I've been here!

    Hi Folks, Some of you may remember me, as I made a lot of friends on this board, and was a "regular". Anyway, I'm glad to see that the board is still alive and well, and I was surprised to see that there were 198 people viewing the main forum alone! I injured my back a few years ago, and...

    Elite Billiards, in Worcester Mass., is closing :(

    Hi Folks, This is (was) a real pool room, and I'm sorry to say I was told that it is closing down at the end of the month. They had about 27 Gandy Big Gs, and two billiard tables. No Booze, one working soda machine and a snack machine. Coffee was 50 cents, and I think they still served hot...

    Pool Cues that Tell a Story

    Does anyone know of any pool cues that tell a story, of an era, other than the "City of Lights" / "Road Agent" / "Road Warrior" / MS-3 / HOF-6 (Hall of Fame #6) by Robert Meucci? I am not aware of any, other than maybe the slight impression that some of his other cues, like the David Howard...

    great cue transaction with FAST_N_LOOSE

    I recently bought a cue from him, and FAST_N_LOOSE is a fantastic person to deal with. He was extremely professional, and even stayed around a while after closing, for me to show up, and complete the transaction! :) Even gave me some directions on-route. A class act.

    I may be interested in 4 piece cue down the road...

    A while back, I forget how long, I remember the topic of a 4-piece cue mentioned. It was mentioned by a cue maker who was wondering if there would be a market. A couple years ago, I was looking for a cue that I could store in my briefcase, along with my "work stuff". I'm not talking about...
