    Built a simple Straight Pool scorekeeper — looking for feedback from 14.1 players

    BUG: I get a warning that I am on 2 consecutive fouls when I have 2 innings that end in a foul consecutively and not necessarily when I have 2 consecutive shots that were a foul. Example I foul the first time, run 1 million balls and scratch and get a second consecutive foul "inning" and...

    Built a simple Straight Pool scorekeeper — looking for feedback from 14.1 players

    App Feedback 1) Sometimes I forget to switch players and enter score for wrong opponent, I use the UNDO button but have to be careful to not UNDO too much otherwise scores are lost forever. So maybe to help with human error have a REDO button and/or WRONG PERSON button. 2) The one time you...

    Break Stats -- 2024 Mosconi Cup, Nov./Dec. 2024

    Should track where the cue ball came to rest after the break shot. Below the break head spot, above the kitchen line or in the middle of those two areas.

    How would you play this?

    Tap the 14 on the right half side to bank and hover it near the corner pocket. Send whitey to hide between 13 and 15 line with no direct jump or jump+bank to 7ball. Hope for ball in hand and use it to attack 15 and 10 ball.

    Essential skills to work on for 8 ball

    **The winner of the game is very largely determined on the outcome of the break. The balls will bank very differently on bar box vs 9 foot. It is overwhelmingly better to play any guaranteed position to be able to see the object ball and on the right side albeit further away then try to get...

    BCA Open team from TAIWAN disqualified?

    I can see them now as they must have got bumped up into Advanced. I still see there old OPEN spot under team name "DQ". Not nearly that exciting as I hoped.

    BCA Open team from TAIWAN disqualified?

    I noticed this morning that the 1st and 2nd place winners of BCA Men's Open singles were from the same Taiwan Team "Taiwan Typhoon". I just checked to see if they are destroying the competition and now can't find the team name as they have been deleted/renamed "DQ". Even if the single...

    Master Teams

    Perhaps the new Advanced division absorbed the intended Master entries. Might not have been a loss of entries but just a shift. For the previous years what were the number of OPEN team and Master team entries? And for this year what were the number of OPEN team and combined Advanced/Master...

    To safety break or not safety break, that is the question.

    Playing VNEA so using points. 3 games left we only need 1 point to win. 3rd last game opponents running out could be 10 - zip. Second last game our only break left, I think we should safety break but my breaking teammate thinks not. What do you think? I think between racking our break as...

    99 Critical Shots In Pool tops for 30 years

    Interference shot Can someone explain to me the one shot called INTERFERENCE Shot before it goes into other Carom shots. It shows the cueball blocked from seeing the object ball that rests in the jaws of the corner pocket. The cueball and blocking ball are lined from second diamond to...
