However you want to do the matches, you can do it, in a pool hall, at your house, wherever. Probably not good for just randomly asking people to play using the app, it's more geared towards those who already know how to play and know about Fargo. You would want to play with players already in...

The person who's question you replied to has not been on AZB since 2018 LOL I was wondering why there was a notification on a 7 yr old post.

You can use the Salatto app to play Fargo reported matches against your friends. Or just talk to people about other tournaments know about if your goal is to get a solid Fargo rating.

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...

For me, unless it was changed from stock, no, the joint would not matter to me. In fact, some rare joint in a cue I would appreciate owning more than if it was a more common one. For example, the Scheuler joint design. Even if you can't find aftermarket shafts for the cues, that is not the...

Same reason I root for two APA 3s when I know them and would sit through their match even if it's bad play LOL It's fun and a bit exiting to see a match by someone you "know". I bet if the Mosconi cup was played by APA players, they would get as much cheering and backing their side as the pro...

This is a fairly normal mental and focus thing that happens, we tend to rise up or down to the level of our competition. Sometimes it is a small nag in the back of your head that does not want to embarrass or crush the other player if they are clearly worse, the killer instinct takes a back...

I find my play is higher level on better tables, not based on size. I play better on a good Diamond 9 footer than a badly setup 7 footer. Especially if the facings are badly done and shots can rattle out even if the pockets are 4.75 or 5 inch pockets due to poorly angled or old petrified...

A local player who is a Master level instructor, and has coached and helped several top national level junior players, is a mid-B level player who I don't think has a 2 pack to his name that I have seen in the 10 years I have known him. But his students have achieved high level play, including...

That would be fun to see/do. In at least one event they had a match with the referees, with the pool players commentating LOL

You can put put a matte coat on any cue, just strip the clearcoat, although with some designs the wood won't pop as much, and it's probably best to do that with a cue without inlays. I held a few of those Roadlines and they seemed more oil than lacquer, it felt woodsy.

I have seen a couple of pool halls now in New York that are using the Rhino carbon fiber house cues. They're pretty good, but definitely require a decent investment since they're about double the cost or more of the wood ones.

I don't think I've ran into that scenario before, the way that usapl did scoring, unless the game is hill hill, if one of the players reached the point totals the match is over. If it's hill-hill, then the winner of that game wins. Meaning if you need one ball and I need one ball, even if you...

That is how USAPL did it. I have broken and ran a table, and the opponent got points because I made both suites of balls on the break. I break, run out, opponent sits and gets 2 points LOL

That would depend on the scoring rules. WPA doesn't sanction leagues as far as I know, but leagues are free to use the rules.

It's a loss, so score is 1 game. WPA does not deal with league scoring differences if that is what you are asking about.

Making "bar rules" "straight 8" play a legally punishable offence. Misdemeanor is fine, no need to go into heavier criminal charges.

It's a pool room in the Philippines and a table brand.

How come not a single person linked the best pool instructional video on gambling of all time? It clearly explains everything.

I was in the military, so yes shot riles and handguns, and a few more boomy things hehe. The difference between aiming and using a gun and a cue is like a difference between a car and a bicycle. You need to point them in the right direction, but the steps to hit the target, and the mechanics...
