There's always the 3-piece version. It would easily fit in any typical checked bag and it might even pass TSA in a carry-on. https://www.ozonebilliards.com/product/star-cues-go-cue-3-piece-travel-cue

Ok I'll address the elephant in the room. Players join a league and pay to play in a competitive environment. If you just want to play for enjoyment's sake then rent a table and go for it. I'm all for supporting disabled folks but most leagues and there are disabled individuals that can play...

I'm of the opinion that there are several popular makers of quality tables, Brunswick, Olhausen, Connelley, and Diamond come to mind. All of these mfgs have different lines of different quality levels. Brand is not the only consideration, model must alsom be factored in as well as budget ...

Fwiw the corner pocket at the Wave in Waltham that is on your link closed about a year and half ago

Yup. That'd be my guess. Someone bought a new set of super pros, put their old balls in the box and donated them to good will.

I've seen it a bunch of times. Personally I'm not a fan of Jonathan winters, but it's a good episode.

If two wongs don't make a wright what do two wrights make? ......an airplane

Pretty harsh IMHO. You are correct, but it could've been worded better. I'd like to send my thanks and condolences to the fallen and the families of the fallen. If you've ever attended a wake or funeral, it's often a celebration of the individual's life. Memorial Day is a remembrance of those...

I'll probably get corrected, but it looks just like the gold crown 3's I've played on

Northeast MA just north and west of Boston I've been playing in a local league at the Corner Pocket in Waltham, MA for a number of years. I just got word that the place has closed it's doors permanently today. It was an in-house league that had singles one night and partners 8-ball another...

Good looking table. Unless you know someone who is a table mechanic you'll need to commission one to break it down, move it and set it back up. Personally, I always go with a new felt when a table is moved. You'll want a quality cloth like a Simons 860. I'm in the Boston area and it's about...

What a great idea. I threw out a bunch, but the boys and girls club sounds like a great outlet

Thanks for all the input. My brother likes to play but isn't avid like most of us. He lives in a nice neighborhood and a lot of his friends and acquaintances have more money than I'll ever have. I was looking to get him some quality cues, beyond the typical 1-piece house cues, so the...

Thanks guys. When I said house cues I meant that they will stay in the house and do not necessarily need to break down, but two piece is definitely an option. Actually for "nice" a two piece is desirable because they are much more ornate and look nicer. I stopped by the local billiard supply...

I have another equipment question. I'm thinking of getting some "nice" cues for the house. Say in the $125-$150/each range. I'm not really knowlegeable about the different makers. These would be cues for anyone to use when we play. any recommendations/guidance in making a selection is...

thanks for all the replies. I bought myself the Super-Pros and I like the graphics, but you guys are convincing me that I should get him a new set of centennials.

My brother has a Brunswick Prestige table that came with centennials whenit was new in the late 70's early 80's. The balls are all yellowed. I want to get him a new set. Everything I read says that Aramith currently makes the centennials for Brunswick and they are the same balls as the Super...

if the guy was a regular tournament player and should have known better then you're less of a d-bag than if this was the guys first tournament and he may not have been aware that it was necessary for him to speak up. Rulz is rulz. If the guy was just learning the official tournament protocol...

It's been a while since I've bought anything from ebay, but isn't that how ebay works? You put in your max bid and it submits a high bid only large enough to lead/win the auction. If someone outbids your shown high bid it automatically increases you until your max bid is placed....then someone...

I bought some stuff from Nielsens's Billiards online through ebay. I had made an error in my purchase and called them directly. The service was fantastic. They fixed MY error and processed the transaction without any problems. Great product, great price. great service. I'd recommend them to...
