    Anyone on here from the Warner Robins GA area?

    I was in a place called B&W Recreation Center maybe a month ago, nothing fancy as far as the place goes, a big box building with large pocket tables, a few people and the guy working where there at the time, not very busy. We got to talking and they started to pull out about a dozen nice...

    Biggest lies in pool stories

    Is it "I paid my way through college hustling pool" or "I have not played in a while"? One is a player who clearly can't hold a cue properly, the other is running out 3 racks from the get-go LOL

    Fargo theoretical rating with two players

    @mikepage Something I thought of on a Reddit question about Fargo. If there are only 2 players in a bubble, we assign them a 350 rating to start with. After 200 games Player 1 shows to be winning games at a 2-1 ratio, a 100 point difference. Would Player 1 end up a 450 and Player 2 stays a...

    Cue ID, 2 pointer, interesting wrap

    Clearly it's a custom, but no idea of the maker. It arrived as a used cue into the pool hall, through different hands, so the history is totally lost. Likely some random local area maker not known nationally, but maybe someone ran across similar designs. Not the cleanest/sharpest work, but not...

    My first DCC trip this year

    It turns out I have a work trip in Louisville on the 19tth. Coincides very nicely with DCC, I am going to take some time off and take a day or two to see things there. Do they allow table rentals for after the matches are over or do most players head to Railyard or someplace to shoot with...

    In Louisville for the week, anyone around that wants to meet up?

    I am in Louisville for work till Friday afternoon, anyone interested in meeting up? I have been to Railyard last time while here but I see some local bars with 7 foot Diamonds also that may be fun to hang out in with a local. I went to one Sat night but no-one was really playing past several...

    In Louisville this week, any fun local places to play in?

    Railyard, yes. Place called Fox Den looks nice also. Any local hangouts with OK tables that maybe run a weekly tournament with nice folks playing? Good food is a bonus :) If anyone is from the area and wants to meet up, I am this second about to head to Railyard for lunch, some local brown...

    Interesting International Amateur skill restriction

    Semi-Pro: $10,000 added, $125 entry fee, $25 registration fee. Restricted to Maximum 650 Fargo Rating and APA 6. This makes no sense, a mid 500 Fargo can max out APA as a 7/9. Saying you can have a 650 Fargo but not be an APA 7 is bonkers. Any 600 Fargo will me maxed out in the APA. Someone...

    I will be in Atlanta June 5/6/7/8 and in Jacksonville from the 8th on to maybe end of the month. If anyone is around those areas and wants to meet up to shoot send me a PM. Not interested in gambling really unless it's like $20 sets, but like to meet fellow AZBers and have local guides for...

    Savannah GA pool halls?

    I may be in Savannah GA next Tuesday 23rd, can't seem to find any pool halls to pass the time, just some random bars with a table or two. Is this the case? Seems like an area that would have an actual pool hall not too far from it. Driving a couple of friends to a Mellencamp concert in town...

    How do you picture the forum members looking like, if you have not met them?

    There was a post Texas Carom Club did of holding his cue, it was not at all how I pictured him looking like, with a big-ass arm with a large tattoo LOL. Maybe because I see Carom players as skinnier guys in suits. Anyone have a built-in picture of what some of the regulars should look like...

    Will be staying by the JAX airport for a week, Sunday - Sunday, from a maps search looks like Park Ave Billiards is the best place to shoot, but I don't see any tournaments on their Facebook page, just bands and other parties. Anyone local to the area know where to find a place to mingle with...

    Cue ID from reddit

    Someone put this up on Reddit for an ID, looks to be from 60s/early 70s with some interesting features and a nice case. I am guessing more than some generic things from overseas. One of them seems to have ivory with a piloted ivory joint and a flared buttcap.
