Last year I won $12,000 in a pool tournament in Vegas--and I didn't win the tournament--I got 2nd. It was a 580 and under, $1000 entry, single elimination, 32 player field. I tried again this year and just barely got my entry fee back as I finished tied for 5th. I didn't post here before...

After this phenomenal showing by Shane, who do you think would be willing to play him this same game for the same stakes? Must be a very short list.

Stein & Rubino - Billiard Encyclopedia, 2nd edition, mint copy. $50 + shipping - paypal

Please see photos for matches. The first $100 + shipping (paypal) gets everything. All were purchased directly from Accustats. Some great matches here! EDIT: make an offer this weekend or these will go in the trash…. EDIT2: I've just arranged to have these donated to a veterans recreation...

This is the entire set of VHS tapes (with exception of #10). Not sure where that one went, but this is hours and hours of the best pool ever filmed. I paid about $300 for it originally from Accustats. $75 + shipping (paypal) EDIT: make an offer this weekend or these will go in the trash….

At least 75 miscellaneous billiards magazines including Pool and Billiard, Inside Pool, Billiards Digest, and Inside English. You have to take them all (I won't search for particular issues). You pay the shipping + $25 (paypal). You tell me how you want them shipped and send that calculated...

For sale is a beautiful Steve Lomax ebony jump - Break cue with 2 shafts. I purchased it directly from Steve Lomax in 2009. It is used, but in excellent condition (but one shaft does not have a tip). Shafts have minor dings as can be expected but routine cleaning and maintenance will take...

Sorry, after all the facebook posts and threads, It's just astonishing that nobody knows how to spell what they hate!

I have a few cues that I use occasionally and they have their original tips. These are cues that aren't made anymore (Edwin Reyes). I'd like to update them to Kamui tips so that I could use them a little more rather than just have them as museum pieces. Will this hurt their value?

Looks like WPBA from many years ago, but it's on for hours all night long….

Does anyone know of a taped match of 9-ball or 10-ball in which Efren was 3-fouled? I wonder what kind of odds I (or anyone else) could get to do that to him. It would be fun to try! I'd definitely have my 15 minutes of fame if I pulled it off!

CNN has a nice picture and writeup about Ewa Mataya Laurance who turns 50 this year. She's a great ambassador for pool! Good to see some positive high-profile attention. http://www.cnn.com/2014/01/16/living/michelle-obama-turns-50-parents/index.html?hpt=hp_bn11

Just an idea....

I received last week a copy of Alfie Taylor’s book, “The Other Side of the Road…a Pool Hustler’s Tale”. He graciously sent it to me gratis since I was selected in one of his contests. I read the entire book in about three innings! I encourage you all to add this wonderful book to your...

Dear AZB: I would like to start a contest to design a cue for Bill Stroud so that he will have a wonderful new tool for his return to competition. Keep in mind that I have never built a cue and don't yet have any equipment for such a task, but I am highly motivated to do this for our forum...

EDITED-------- DC Area Pool Tournaments (updated): Sadly, VIP billiards in Catonsville is closed, so no more tournaments there. Following icucybe’s suggestion, here are the others in this first post, taken from this thread (I still encourage you to read the whole thread and check with the...

The fans want to know. The players want to know. The sponsors probably want to know. The host pool room may want to know. Mike and Jose, this is your chance, just hit REPLY and answer yes or no. Thanks! --Steve

I’m pleased to give my highest endorsement to John Burns (Scruffy1 on AzBilliards) of Classic Billiard Service for the re-leveling and re-clothing work he just performed on my Olhausen table. His work was recently recommended in this thread...

Poor Johnny. Hopefully Johnny held up well this time. Hatch should be cautious though as there aren't alternates should he take Archer or one of the other teammates out of commission. Disclosure: This post is in jest, although the threat is real (happened to a colleague of mine)
