    28th Worldchampionship Artistic Billiards

    I did not watch the tournament becouse of some bussiness but I am sorry to hear your dissapointment and you sound right about it.The quality of the coverage was also low on the last World Cup tournament in Turkey.The channel belongs to the state not a private channel so I am not sure what is...

    many 3 cushion match videos

    I agree with your points Mr.Raiford.I would like to add that apart from shot making abilities of professional players,it is highly interesting to watch them before the shot.How they prepare for the shot and approach the table.Their pre-shot behaviours show how much methodical they are and how...

    european championship final live on internet at 8:00 am edt

    many thanks for the information.I could only watch the final and partially Both Caudron and Sanchez are excellent shotmakers and both of them showed their skills in the match. Caudron's win an statistics over Jaspers is also impressive in the quarter finals ,I think.Caudron had a tough time...

    Power Draw

    Robert Bryne talks about Massey's draw in one of his books.He says Massey hits at the exact point on the cue ball with 'conviction' in power draws so he can obtain such lively action from the cue ball As you know ,draw on a cue ball is much more a stroke thing than just hitting 6 o'clock for...

    Sweetest Strokes

    Sanchez has a very strong stroke.He is a small gentleman but can strike a ball very hard if he wishes. some observations: Saygıner has a small sidearm in long shots and he is phenomenal when his cue ball is very near to the first object ball. Zanetti has a very powerful stroke.He can kick...

    Sweetest Strokes

    the most silky:Saygıner the most explosive:Blomdahl The straightest and most authoritative:Jaspers the best touch :Sang lee I am not sure about the application 'sweet' to a stroke but if it is the most eye pleasing,then I choose the Saygıner's stroke,but the stroke which causes an awe for me is...

    World Cup -- Antalya, Turkey

    Yes,I meant 'tired of playing' ...'fed up' The commentators made this comment during the Tasdemir-Blomdahl semi-final match.Blomdahl was not playing his A game but he scored a couple of points immediately at the critical points in the match.His level is so high ,even with his B form,he reaches...

    World Cup -- Antalya, Turkey

    You are welcome. To have a tournament in a 4 or 5 star hotel in a place line Antalya must be very attractive for both players and guests.We,Turks ,do well in organisations. I do not think we will see Saygıner again in world cups at least as long as this federation remains. I have not seen the...

    World Cup -- Antalya, Turkey

    Horn deserved it.He beat Sanchez,Blomdahl and Jaspers . Blomdahl was shockingly bad in the semi-final against Horn.To watch him in that form was very painful. UMB president's comment about the billiard's participation into London Olympics was also interesting.The president of World Snooker...

    why are pool balls smaller than billiard balls?

    May one of the reasons ,why billiard balls are bigger,be to make the game simpler? I tried pool balls on carom table to see what happens.I am not a good player, but with pool balls, even the positions in which the second object in the corner is difficult let alone other positions in which the...
