At least seemingly ;) Got me thinking that current WPC (2025) is a good chance to start such a list, just for the reference sake. As we know, nowadays many wooden shafts are not pure wood but could keep all sorts of carbon inside (rods, tubes, etc.) But based on appearance it is easy to tell...

I did not watch every single match featured by WPBA yt channel, so was pretty much astonished about the outcome of Kelly Fisher vs Bean Hung game. Alrighty then, DigitalPool... As if there were not enough minor and major drawbacks from ya already :poop: :mad: And this is a World Championship...

What's your call on this shot?

There is a chance to watch some 9-ball performed by former and current members of Russian national team competing at an invitational. The requirement was to feature those who won a title at national level or higher (European or World championship; well, there is one who won the 9-ball Worlds...

'Champion's pool' got to be the name of this invitational event for 8 players. Ruslan Chinakhov and Konstantin Stepanov must be more familiar to international audience. But other six are a good match to them. Links to watch, whichever works for you: https://www.youtube.com/@WorldOfPool...

Here's a thread for new chalk introduced by Alex The Lion. Made in Finland by TAOM, most probably. Let's go! (added an image provided by RickLafayette in other thread)

This is a rare example, available to general audience, of some major milestones in EPBF ref team approach. How area refereeing works, shotclock, unsportsmanlike conduct and colored cards. Miscues.

Obviously, as them Matchroom say, the list of participants was revealed during the last day of 9-ball Worlds in Kielce (February 2023). However, as them Matchroom say, two spots are left for wildcards. Note that Mohammad Soufi, the sensational runner-up of the Worlds, won some heart(s) to...

one of our local pool halls might have installed wrong type of cushions recently. As far as I remember they bought K55. The banks play short, balls often jump when hit the cushion on a solid table-length bank, and at the same time 2- or 3-rail position kills all the cue ball action. What is...

SVB is going to attend Kremlin Cup 10-Ball event for the first time, so that's golden opportunity to arrange a challenge match featuring this monster player. ABNbilliards is proud to present this challenge and free live streaming from the venue. In order to keep things interesting for foreign...

Details to follow. So far, what do you think of the importance of certain "pool muscles" training? Of course there are muscles responsible for stroking motion. But what's about intensive training of those? Could it be important for better play, or is it totally irrelevant?

I wonder what you fellow instructors think of an idea of pumping the muscles that operate one's stroking arm? Kind of what golfers do. Of course they focus on driving more than putting in regard with muscle training, but there are ways to train upper body for better putt as well. Recently I've...

I first was going to add a post to a previous thread on this subject (Video evidence that Cyclop is ...) but as soon as I noticed it has been driven way off to other direction I decided to open a new topic. Cyclop balls were used at recent Amway Cup. And though more often than not there were...

during a recent ranking snooker tournament in Cardiff a local commentator said that Michaela will not act as a referee any more. Neither in snooker, nor in pool! His exact words were "her career has been ended" - as if to underline it was not her own will. Also he mentioned something about Barry...

Evgeny Stalev 2014 World tournament record run - and "How would you play this" his run was recently shared with the audience. Evgeny provided some commentary, it's in Russian of course, but at the table he has spoken a universal global language of 14.1 ;) so it's easy to comprehend. Well...

I'm not certain about Mike Long and Dakota Cues are one and the same person, but I would appreciate any contact info, emails or such. Dakota Cues was last posting back in 2013, so sending him a PM is not an option I guess.

Recently I discovered the butt of my cue got slightly warped. I never really bothered about checking so far, and even now I don't think it does influence the cue delivery line. Yet subconsciously, you know, it might get on me, especially if I it happens I miss a ball - and I sure will miss...
