So he missed a shot. Big deal...life goes on.

To paraphrase Doc Holliday, from the movie "Tombstone"..... There is no bad publicity. There is just publicity. Some people say that, being remembered for anything, is better than not being remembered at all. Or perhaps, CJ was just having fun with that post. :)

If I miss the intended pocket by 4 feet, in bank pool, I'm just going to sit down and let my opponent shoot. Regardless of what the rules say.

I remember that well, from back in the 1970s, when I was playing tennis. It not only showed good sportsmanship, but it also made a bold statement to the umpires that they were wrong.

No problem.....if you pay to have new cloth put on my table, I'll send you my old cloth for free.

I could try it with my Magic Rack, but........oh never mind.

I stayed in a hotel in Albany (or maybe it was Buffalo...can't remember) that had an attached bar with one crappy bar box. But there were only two cues, and neither one had a tip. :confused:

Don't waste a lot of money trying to find the perfect tip, or cue, that will make you shoot better. Not that I ever did that.

LOL....not knocking, just don't want to hang out with friends who stab me in the back.

You need to find some different friends.

Yep. It's an electronic trail that will follow you around forever. Try applying for a job somewhere, with this type of reputation out there on the internet.

Tell them to save their money, because you're so good there is no way they can possibly win. Next thing you know, there will a dozen guys standing in line, wanting to play.

It's possible he died from old age, by now.

Nothing complicated here.......just play until you can't.

Check the rubber on the rails. It's not uncommon for import tables to use a cheap rubber, that can turn hard as a rock over time. Then, it's like trying to bank a ball off of a 2 x 4. That "free" table can start to get expensive if it needs new cushions put on the rails. It happened to my...

I bought a Pechauer carbon fiber shaft a few years ago, because I have a Pechauer cue, and I figured it would fit properly. And it does. Don't know how it compares, because I haven't tried any others. I like it, and it's much better than the shaft that came with the cue. But, I'm not sure it...

I didn't say intelligence, I said knowledge. They are two different things. You don't need to be a genius to play pool, but you do need to have some knowledge of the game. You can gain that knowledge from a teacher, or from the school of hard knocks. It doesn't really matter. But If you...

Back in high school, I had a physics teacher who said you can be the greatest pool player in the world, if you understand physics. She was wrong. Knowledge is always good, but it takes a heck of a lot of practice, too.
