    Solutions for small-scale local one pocket tournaments

    Not saying they don't exist. I'm just saying that particular problem should be addressed by the TD, not by rule changes. And, I see that a lot less than simply styles that lead to long matches. That can be addressed with rules as long as they don't turn it into a different game.

    Solutions for small-scale local one pocket tournaments

    Clock doesn't work because slow play isn't what usually leads to long matches. If that's the issue the TD can light a fire under them. Most of the time it is tight matches involving at least one player who is a really good mover, 2 players who are better movers than they are shooters, or 2...

    Pool Rooms in Atlanta and/or Birmingham, Montgomery Alabama

    I should have specified that I'm looking for 9 foot tables. Diamonds preferred. I'm flexible on the part of the city.

    Pool Rooms in Atlanta and/or Birmingham, Montgomery Alabama

    I'll be in Atlanta and a couple spots in Alabama for work. Recommendations on pool rooms, tournaments? I'm looking for 9 foot tables, diamonds preferred but not mandatory. A spot that has some cheap one pocket action would be a nice bonus. Thanks.

    Video camera, light combo?

    Perimeter Billiard Lights. The light is awesome. Easy to assemble and install. It comes with a remote and is dimmable so you can adjust to your own comfort level. The owner is very easy to work with too. Highly recommend. For the camera, I like the Canon Vixia HF G20 camera and have a couple. I...

    Looks like you are getting your pool movie....

    She was great as Wednesday Addams. I'm willing to stay positive to see a pool movie made with these two. It doesn't help pool to trash it before it comes out. Hope it turns out well and helps spur interest in pool.

    Diamond Bill's One-Pocket Secret

    Shot into the nub and jumped over to hit the ball away from the pocket? Another possibility is shooting into the long rail as close to the object ball as possible, given the corner hook, with a ton of reverse english and 2-3 rail over to the object ball. I assume you saying there no reasonable...

    Fedor vs SVB score

    What deadens the rails? I have 5-7 year old Diamond. Just had mine recovered when the table was moved and they seem slower. Any idea what would cause that?

    Alex dogged it….at the airport

    They aren't "expected" to pay half. In a calcutta auction, the player typically has the right to buy half of their action from the winning bidder. The player may even have their own backer to buy that half if they were purchased by some other bidder in the auction.

    Emily interview: new US events coming?

    I'm admittedly unfamiliar with how qualifiers work in these other situations and there could be management issues. However, it seems that having a good number of qualifiers would also tend to increase subsequent viewership of the main events quite a bit. It would create more buy-in and interest...

    Gorst returns to international play

    I believe I read that is with the intention of subsequently applying for U.S. citizenship. That's what my comment was based upon.

    Gorst returns to international play

    Did any of them apply to become citizens? I may be misinterpreting this but my understanding is that is what Fedor is doing. If so, I would assume that once he became a citizen he'd be eligible to play for Team USA.
