The years that I have watched the draw the pool balls have been used to place players into the bracket. They just put all the balls into the ball return in the table and pulled one out at a time. This was done in front of everyone.

Change the format to race to 3 games instead of 5. 15 points needed to win the cup. This would favor the underdog.

Thanks for the interview. I played a few times at his pool room Airport Billiards

Fedor has streamed all his matches live on youtube for free. He is live now vs Billy T.

Perhaps lesson is a better word.

Man I sure miss Washington Billiards..... I was lucky enough to go there around the time he won his world championship. Two dollars an hour to play on those antique tables. One of them usually had a golf game going on to sweat.

The most compelling story about dealing with anxiety during competition to me is the Rick Ankiel story. Addiction and substance abuse had more to do with the story than most people know, the cause of the issue and a crutch used to help fight the battle. I may be bias because I live in St...

Those club pros you speak of are called Golf Professionals. Professional golfers are the ones who compete on the Tour fyi. The difference between the two is huge....

I live in the same general area as Kyle. I have played him on occasion. I would have guessed that he was around a 600 Fargo before I read this thread and looked him up. Kyle doesn't deserve to have a hate thread about him, it should be taken down. To say that he is stealing as a 628 fargo is...

I use a half dollar made the year I was born to flip for the break prior to playing. I win more than my share of flips.

Washington Billiards. Located in Washington Missouri. The Billiard Bullpen. Located in Collinsville Illinois. Chesterfield Billiards. Located in Chesterfield Missouri.

Yes, keep practicing on the 10 foot table. You gain the most when you get on the wrong side of the ball. I believe if you develop the stroke to use low inside english and go three rails for shape on a 10 ft table, when it comes up on a nine ft table it is so much easier. There are other...

I met David Hodges years ago at the DCC. He is the man behind Quick Clean, a product for cleaning pool table felt. I remember him saying that multiple cleanings with his product after the new felt was installed would almost eliminate the sliding factor. The Quick Clean website currently, says...

I figured they would use the tournament set. I was mostly wanting to find out which cue ball. I am guessing either the black logo or the black measles ball?

Bump for an answer to the OP's question....
