Looking to sell my 5 year old perfect shape diamond 7 footer. do billiards stores do consignments?? Thanks for any info. Judo

Had my right knee totally replaced yesterday at 67. Barely any pain yesterday, was going to message my doctor and ask him if he even did the operation,😂 today, all hell broke loose. Major pain, took my first of 35 vicadin around 4 pm but now its wearing off, will have to take another soon...

Please don’t call me a cheapskate. Senior citizen on a small fixed pension. Would like to read the book. Lets make a deal😎

I just saw something somewhere on the internet that the rio is now the arm pit casino in Vegas? Showed video of stray cats running thru the casino, 5 dollar a night room? I’m almost afraid to go watch the event stepping into that place. have never watched or gone to a pro event in person, is it...

practiced some speed 9 ball yesterday pretty much for the first time. Just threw out 9 random balls, and started playing rotation. I could only do a quick glance at my route and position zone, and then shoot. Then on to the next ball. Had some luck just bending down and quickly finding my angle...

I go to a sports bar 10 minutes from my house once or twice a week for happy hour prices. It’s 6 bucks a hour, and I tip two dollars, so 8 dollars a hour. im the first person there when the bar opens, so I get the same 7 foot diamond table. The cloth is pretty worn out, but I don’t mind. I put...

replaced my playing cue with a kamui soft tip today, replacing my old tip that chipped. old Tip lasted about 6 months. and I retipped my break cue, which is about 3 years old, first time with a new break tip. total cost was 85 dollars. better for me that buying a new cue.

I have noticed that most pros will start their shot process with the cue tip very very low on the cue ball. almost Hitting the felt. are they doing this to find center cue ball, or are they starting out that low and moving up a tip or so at cue delivery???? I have been messing around with this...

We see it all the time watching the pro tournaments. Someone will slop a ball in a pocket, not meaning to, and they wave at their opponent like to say I’m sorry. Not me. Also on the break when the 9 ball goes in. I read a post on here a while ago, where a player said he had two speeds at the...

I know it seems a little silly to buy and have a second table. But at 66, shooting and practicing pool is a great enjoyment for me. I have a diamond 7 foot table inside, and now the valley. Wanted a valley as all the bars around me use them. Price was 1700, moved and delivered to my house. I had...

Went to my senior center to play for a while, normally empty when I’m there. Surprised to see two guys on the middle diamond table. We said hello, and i started doing my thing on the side table. I could hear them talking, but i really didnt watch them play, as i was doing my own thing. As i was...

Now i know why pro pool players are mostly slender, tall, and do do not weigh much. Shooting pool and lifting weights do not go together. I have been lifting weights for over 45 years, and still lift pretty heavy. My body is always in some kind of recovery. Always sore, and I’m alway tight. Not...

The worst movie on my all time list is WEEKEND AT BERNIES. A terrible stupid movie, terrible plot, overacting, just a waste of time. Last night watched pool hall junkies, and it goes right at the number 2 spot. Of course the pool scenes were ok, but the plot sucked, the acting sucked, never...

First vacation in about 6 years. Went to Lake Tahoe with the kids and grand kids. Of course old grandpa paid. Had fun, Lake Tahoe is so cold I could only go in the water up to my knees. Came back home, started to practice, could not make a ball. Took a few days to get halfway back to normal...

I have never seen or watched a pro pool player in person. Last month, the two main pool halls hosted efern. One pool hall was in Lakewood, and the other right by my house, aloha billiards. I thought about going, didnt know if it was free or not. But i didnt go, and later found out it was like 30...

Enjoyed watching the UK tournament on you tube this weekend. My question is this: the line up was the best of the best, the top 10 players in the world. Filler, ko brothers, Ruiz, Boeing, ect ect. Why do pros who are on a level below these killers attend this tournament? And I’m not naming...

I was practicing this shot last night, and out of 10 shots, 8 went into the side pocket for a scratch. I kept scratching my head, trying to figure out what i was doing wrong. Tried hitting the cue ball harder, no luck, tried hitting easier, no luck. ( it was late, and i think i was a little...

In the beginning, i would break and run a 9 ball rack once every month. This went on for quite a while, a couple of years or so. Now, after 5 plus years of practicing at age 66, the break and runs are know coming 4-5 a practice session. To say I’m I’m very happy is an under statement. I have...

I seem to lately just get down on my shot line on a long angle shot, and eyeball my aim point, and shoot, and im not missing?????? Is it possible that i have hit so many shots in practice that i can now find my shot line in my mind and zero in and shoot??? Im talking not using CTE, GHOST BALL...

Old judo is a senior citizen, on a small fixed pension, and social security. So when i saw the price of the diamond ball polisher, there was no way judo could buy that, way to expensive. Did a little research, and found DR BILLIARDS BALL POLISHER. Did a little research on it, and found it on...
