Over at Billiards Digest - a good read. I've always liked Raj's game - reminds me of Earl's. Apparently it reminds Earl of Earl's too! http://www.billiardsdigest.com/new_current_issue/jan_09/indexraj.php

i followed a few related video links on the PAT drills video thread and came across this video of russian pyramid. it's actual television coverage and although it's in russian (or some other slavic language) it's visually informative - it shows the difference between pool and snooker balls and...

According to an email i just recieved from Shane Sinnott of Platinum Billiards, predator are now banning the sale of any of it's products, Poison included, to all of these countries: Austria Netherlands Portugal Belgium Italy Singapore Caribbean (Southern) Korea Spain China (Mainland) Kuwait...

http://www.pro9.co.uk/html/ Top right there's a small video - just click play. Controversial stuff - but i agree with what he says 100%.

i went to practice to today for a couple of hours and decided to give some straight pool a go. now i know the game pretty well from watching loads and loads of videos, but i've barely ever played it - at least not for a long while and back then i was still learning to hold the cue when i gave it...

:D Lol that's one way to put it anyway! Looking forward to this match! www.internationalpooltour.com

could be a good one! Nobody's in the booth yet though - Jay get your ass back up there! :D And bring Tony too!

i play with an OB-1 atm and i really love the feel of the thing, however, even after a long time i'm still not sure if I like the low deflection aspect of it. So what i was thinking about is if there's any other cues out there which have a real soft hit like the OB-1, but without the low...

i went away from the pc for a few mins, and i came back to hear KT i think mention an upcoming tournament. Or was i dreaming.

http://www2.myp2p.eu/broadcast.php?matchid=10791&part=sports tried a couple of the links and it's exactly the same feed as what's on the tv here - choice of tables too. as i speak i'm watching hendry in the lead over ding 4-1, with willie thorne and neil foulds commentating. i know accessing...

He's starting to feel it again - 8-1 up in a race to 10 means he has more or less booked his place in the next round, and he's playing extremely well. Reading a couple of interviews of his of late he seems to have found his drive again, and nobody has to like it. he still knocks in long slow...

just stumbled on a fabulous youtube video - or set of videos. Irving Crane runs 150 and out back in the day. it's a great watch - i love the urgency and smartness in the players mannerisms then, the way they walk around the table. and the commentary is great, really takes you back in time and...

How common are they? What are they like? Do any of the big manufacturers like diamond, olhausen, or brunswick make them any more? Is there an argument to be had that maybe ten footers should be the future for high level professional play? rather like it's now starting to be accepted that...

Cue up his chalk, instead of chalking up his cue? :D Any other players chalk their cue in this strange manner lol?

Not sure why they felt the need for this, but nevertheless it sounds cool. Like schmidt says - it could be interesting to see straight pool on a slow nap cloth like the gorina.

Jasmin Ouschan seems to have inexplicably disappeared off the voting list now. :( http://www.internationalpooltour.com/EventVoting/votingresults.aspx real shame as I was hoping to see her play this - maybe a schedule conflict? As it stands it's vilmos foldes and gerda the top two. personally...

Just recieved this in an email. Pretty self explanatory. Personally I think we should all band together and vote in Jasmin and Earl now at this juncture. That match up would have it all for me. Arguably the two greatest strokes in the game. Plus the battle of the sexes element makes it...

On my shaft? not down there! Hypothetically if i were to buy a 30inch shaft would that be better for me as i could then maybe have a slightly longer bridge without moving my grip hand further back on the butt. Or are they really only for people who are taller.

I need a butt with a 3/8 x 10 pin joint. the worse condition the better :D it can be old and ugly and dented. it just needs to be solid and straight. does anyone have anything lying around? thanks.

i think this video will stir up the debate a bit: http://youtube.com/watch?v=l_OmnP527Dw :D
