    Karl Boyes should he have been called for a foul!

    Just watched Quarter-Finals of Karl Boyes 8 – 7 Ralf Souquet. What a comeback from Karl Boyes!

    Where "exactly" do diamonds go on a table?

    Without getting into a long story, I have a 9 foot table with a custom made top, BUT it at this point doesn't have diamonds (in my case circles).
