https://pad.chalkysticks.com/c908e20.png I use the Outsville template for breaking racks of 9B. And as you all know I have been breaking those racks on my new Diamond Professional. The issue is that I usually end up with about four balls all close together as shown in the diagram. In this...

I've also noticed three more things with regards to the new Diamond Professional. 1) The side pockets play tough. I've hit some shots into the side pockets facings and they have bounced out. Shots that I though would go in. Is this typical of Diamond tables? 2) The table plays faster than my...

I keep talking about having a runnable rack. Tonight I went back over to the garage apartment to see if the new light bulbs would make things better and brighter. Was a small improvement. Anyway, I broke about a dozen racks and never had a chance. Then finally I got this spread and ran out...

Anybody have special shoes you wear when you play? My Diamond Professional is in my upstairs garage apartment and it's got that vinyl plank flooring. If I have to lean a little bit to reach a shot my feet will, at times, slip a little. Just wondering if anyone uses special shoes for various...

I've had the new table one month now. And so far I have noticed three things about this new Diamond Professional. First, sad to say, the break still doesn't seem to be working for me. Similar results to the Gold Crown IV. Not sure what to do about this dilemma. Second, those that said I...

Anybody seen or heard anything from Travis lately? He played a good game of 9-Ball once by only missing two shots. r/DCP

Seems like somebody was wanting pictures of the pockets, can't remember who. Anyway, I finally remembered to take my phone over to the table today and took these pics. If it's not what was wanted just let me know. r/DCP

Anybody here ever have Jack Zimmerman work on their tables? I've heard nothing but good things about him. Outstanding things really. He lives over around the east edge of Indiana. not too far from the Ohio border. Before the cold weather hits I might try and coax him into coming down and...

If you do contact Diamond. They will be glad to sell you one. They make a great playing table. Ha! Fooled everybody. Sorry, couldn't resist..:cool::cool::cool: r/DCP

A buddy of mine that's a pretty good player came over today. We played some 9-Ball and then he sort of introduced me to One Pocket. Seems like an interesting game, alot of strategy involved. Once we got down to the last 3-4 balls it took a while to finish off that rack. Oh, and before anyone...

After having this Diamond Professional for several days now there is one thing that I think would improve the table. Instead of the nylon pockets if it had those rubber type pockets that the Gold Crown IV has that would be awesome. The sound of the balls falling into those rubber pockets just...

Ok, so, now that I have my new Diamond Professional I've come to the conclusion that the light above it pretty much isn't going to get the job done. There are a couple of pics attached. As I've said before, it's a cheap 5-bulb light from Lowes. I don't want to spend a ton of $$$ on a light so...

Had a nice 15 minute phone chat with RKC earlier tonight. Anybody else ever have the pleasure of talking with him? r/DCP

Delivery and installation is complete. I've only shot around about a minute because I am hungry and then need to run to Walmart and get some stuff so I don't have to go tomorrow. Might get to play on it later tonight. The install took about 4.5 hours. Alot of good stories shared. Including...

Just got the word from Diamond. My new Diamond Professional table will be delivered this Saturday, 28 February. A new Diamond table delivered on my birthday, doesn't get any better than that..:) I'll try and post some pics once the install is complete. But I must warn you - don't expect to...

What does all of this label stuff mean? And will my new Diamond Professional be a red label? blue label? some other kind of label? What's the difference here? r/DCP

Just wanted to keep everybody posted and up to date. It's been four months since I ordered the Diamond Professional table now. I am expecting breaking news almost any day now. Perhaps there's been a slight delay due to all the snow and the Derby City tournament. I'll let you's know if I hear...

Just wondering how many - if any - of you folks still watch the DVDs of matches from the Sands Regency Tournament out in Reno back in the 1990s? I still watch them on a fairly regular basis and perhaps might even buy some more DVDs from the Sands in the near future. r/DCP

Just wanted to keep everybody updated. Somebody asked about the update in the other thread so here you go. It's my understanding ETA is about three weeks away. I just wonder if the Derby City and all of this snow and ice and bitter cold weather could delay things. Plus I hope my lane is free...

Ok, so, one of my hobbies is that I like to watch old TV shows from my youth. One of the old TV shows that I like to watch late at night is Barnaby Jones. Remember Buddy Ebsen played the older, milk drinking private investigator in Los Angeles. I was watching an episode last night and Barnaby...
