Hi People! I may be relocating to Winston-Salem later this year. Could not find much online about good pool halls and good leagues in the area. Anyone in that neck of the woods have some insight to share, please? Thank you.

Hi People! So, I always try to make my threads positive sounding but this may be an exception. I have been watching a lot of pool being streamed of late and the standard of commentary (announcing as it is more commonly known in the USA) is to put it mildly, largely atrocious. Of note: 1...

I am one year into my pool playing journey. APA Level 4 and now can play 8 ball, 9 ball, 14.1 and am now captain of my own APA 9 ball team on a Monday night. I have met some great friends in pool in the last year - one or two jerks as well. But that has to be expected. I have very much enjoyed...

Either Pool or Snooker come to that. Moving to a home of my own after the first if the year and want to consider options. Many thanks, Craig.

Hi People! So I am in Pleasanton working at the moment (talking while animals run around in a circle and people bet on it) who is interested in playing in either Fremont or San Ramon on Friday, Saturday or Sunday night? APA Level 4. Can play 8 Ball, 9 Ball, Saratoga and Straight Pool. APA...

In the middle of June I go to Pleasanton, CA to call the summer horse races there. Always one of my favorite places to visit, are there any players on here from there or the surrounding cities who would like to get together for some games...8 ball, 9 ball, Saratoga, 14.1 and have a good time...

Hi People! Because of my physical disability I often need to use a mechanical bridge. I have a very cheap and light telescopic one which just about does the job but does anyone know of any manufacturer or retail store that sells wooden ones that don't feel flimsy? I know pool halls have them...

I have a two piece playing cue, a 2 piece break cue and am soon to get a 2 piece mechanical bridge? So no one makes 3x3 cases? Does anyone have an idea where I can get one?if you have one for sale you do not want, I would be interested in buying it from you. I don't care if it's old and has a...

As I continue my pool journey, I often compare it to other sports I have played or been around at a professional level. I was fortunate enough to know some top level professional golfers whose prime years were in the 1960's but were still obviously skilled players into their fifties and sixties...

Hi Everyone! Inspired by people on here I played 15 games on Saratoga today although I narrowly lost to an APA6 (I am a new player APA4) - I really enjoyed the game and seems a game that played to my strengths as a positional player and one who likes to play for snookers and enjoys putting my...

Hi Everyone! I am going to be playing from 430 or so somewhere today in Phoenix. Usually go to Main Street Billiards in Mesa but happy to travel. If you wanna play let us know. Cheers.

In my other thread someone asked why I took up Pool four months ago. Just to recap I have an incapacitating degenerative bone disease. In December it was really bad and I had to do something to get me out and competitive. I visited a local pool hall. Found what I was after! Now I play to an APA...

Hi Everyone! New player here. Played four months, APA Level 4. I love my Imperial Drifter Sneaky Pete cue, so ordered another one from them that arrived today, this time it weighs 20 ounces. I want to put a hard tip on there. Can you please recommend some tips I should consider before I take...
