    Accu-Stats "Classic" matches on DVD!

    Mizerak vs. Strickland from the 1994 U.S. Open is a good match. It is a player review match with the Miz and Billy in the booth. It's funny 'cause Billy starts to criticize some of Steve's shot selections and it doesn't mix well with Steve's ego. There are some uncomfortable moments of silence...

    Price Check **J&J 20oz J/B Cue Signed by Kim White

    I have that exact same cue that was sent to me free when I ordered my Schon. Keep it and break with it. For being a cheap cue ($50-65) they both break and jump great. I can honestly say that my free J&J breaks better than the $300 Predator BK1 I had. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a Predator...

    should pocket size be standardized?

    This is a good thread. I agree that pocket size should be standardized. It's not like NBA players play with larger/smaller buckets from game to game. 4.5 sounds reasonable to me.:)

    Rails get faster when it rains?

    This could be part of the problem as well, as our owner regularly has dirty balls.:o

    Rails get faster when it rains?

    I know this sounds weird, but the rails on our 7ft. Diamonds actually SPEED UP when it rains. I always thought that when the humidity rose, the table would play slower. The cloth is still playing the same, it's just whenever the ball comes off the rail it's springy as hell. It's like a guessing...

    Making a dream pool room

    Low level music, good ventilation if it allows smoking, alot of space between tables, padded carpeting around table areas, at least 2 weekly tournaments (maybe 8ball one night and 9 ball another), and NO KARAOKE! Nothing is more aggravating to a serious poolplayer than some drunk screaming and...

    Moving to Arkansas

    I'm afraid you might be right about Fayettville. I went up there a couple times to visit and action was almost non-existent. Where I play now in TN has several players with respectable strength, when I move I can already see my game dropping a ball or two 'cause of lack of competition. :(

    Tennessee action

    Have Pickel or Hennessee or any of the Tennessee heavyweights stopped by yet?

    Moving to Arkansas

    I'm moving to Fayetteville, AR in a couple weeks. There's a couple poolrooms in Fayetteville called Billiards Palace and The Green Room. That's primarily where I will be playing. I might also frequent Beezer's Billiards in Russellville, AR. Are these home rooms to any AZer's out there?

    Short Bus Russ barking at me

    Why hasn't Russ responded yet? I know if I played a "helluvalot" better than shortstop speed I'd be setting myself up some future action. Unless I just barked a "helluvalot" louder than I can actually bite.

    Why are there so few good pool players today?

    I was at the DCC a couple years ago watching Corey Deuel and Marco Marquez gambling some one-pocket and Grady happened to be sitting beside me. I overheard him telling someone "with today's players, all they need is one shot and then they're out." P.S. If you read this Grady, I hope I didn't...

    Weirdest Stroke?

    I gotta agree with you on this one. And when he takes his practice strokes, it's 100 mph. It looks like he's trying to start a weedeater or something. He plays very good though, just looks a little funny.

    Video of a couple cool shots

    The only thing I edited out were the missed attempts. The reason it's catchy in some places is because I don't even have a digital camcorder. I'm recording using a Fujifilm 4.1 megapixel CAMERA. The last shot is difficult, but nowhere near 1 in 500. If I remember right I think I made it on like...
