I bought a Predator Roadline with a Revo shaft and unilock joint about five years ago. Over the last year it started to make a rattling noise occasionally after off-center hits. Now it does that very frequently, and recently it got to the point that it does it regardless of where the cue ball is...

I noticed that years ago Shane’s stroke used to look a bit different than it does today. He’s always had that habit of turning his wrist a bit on the final stroke, I think as compensation because he would let his right elbow move slightly sideways away from his body, but it seems like the bent...

It was a great book. I believe the writer embellished a bit and made a few things up. A long time ago I brought up the book to Ernesto Dominguez mentioning that he was in it, and he smiled and said “that guy never beat me”. I later heard that a few other notable players in the book claimed what...

Not new here, used to post here often ~20 years ago. Back to playing a lot now so I am back here!

Wow I had no idea. Interesting, thanks. Edit: I just realized, this is not a slip stroke. This is a stroke slip. I remember someone making this differentiation.

I think he mentioned on a podcast that he would get really sweaty hands.

Yea I did notice that. They didn’t get down low over the shot either. Some stood nearly straight up in their stance.

Was the slip stroke used as a necessity for some because of that? I wasn’t entirely sure what it was for. I’ve tried it and found it easy enough to do but couldn’t understand what advantage it offered.

Seems like it wasn’t uncommon during the era of Mosconi and a bit beyond that. I don’t know of any greats from later generations using it. My knowledge is of course limited to what I’ve been able to gather from videos I’ve seen. In modern generations I can’t think of a single player using it...

I hope Fedor does a repeat. I always root for the guy.

Is that where you can find a lot of top pool players talking about current things in pool these days? I joined X a couple years back expecting to find top players like Shane and others speaking their minds but it seems like many pro pool players aren't active there. Either that or I couldn’t...

What platform is this convo from? Facebook?

Will that fit all predator cues or do some have different butt dimensions for that bumper adaptor? I have a Predator Roadline cue. Thanks

Looking to buy one and I was surprised that to get the adaptor bumper and the extension is in the $110-120 range. Why the hell is it so costly? Does anyone know where I can get something much cheaper?

I don’t remember how many times they played and who was the overall winner. I saw them play in Vegas during a BCA event and it was the most insane match I’ve ever seen. I think Alex made a comeback and won. Also, where can those matches be found? I had a DVD of one, I think it was the one I saw...

I like both of these guys but I gotta go with Fedor.

I’m noticing that some top players will put on a cue extension for a shot that they don’t need it for. For example Orcullo screws one on to his cue when he shots the 9ball halfway through this video:

I thought Ko had that one in the bag when I checked the scores earlier. Wow must have been heartbreaking for him.

Shane is the package delivery man.

Where can I find updated brackets for this event?
