This is good news! All the major events from Matchroom will now be sanctioned, which means there will be no ban for players who are WNT pros, or players who join qualifiers

Hi, I am sure there are dozens of topics about this already, so sorry for that. Today I am playing with an old Predator Breakcue, but I am now looking for something new. There are so many on the market, so I thought I would try to get some of your inputs here, before heading out to poolhalls...

I am going to New York and Washington from 8th - 18th of October. Any tournaments in these two cities those dates? It is a job-related trip so don’t know how much time I have available but hopefully I can go to play atleast one weeknight in each city, and I know for sure that I have all the...

My daughter (aged 9) just got her first cue, and is eager to practice with me every now and then. What are the best drills, set-ups, advice for letting her enjoy the game and make progress? I have been practicing some easy one rail kick shots with her, just so she learns to play center of the...

Sometimes in life you have to just do those crazy things that pops up in your mind. I decided to travel all over the pond from Norway, just to experience Buffalo. Since I met JoeyA at Derby City Classic in 2009/2010 we have many times talked about a «reunion», but it has never fit in our...

Who will be there? I’m going to New Orleans to say hi to JoeyA and what a coincidence, there is a chance to watch a big one-pocket event at the same time! I signed up for the 9-ball bartable. Hopefully I will get the chance to meet and say hi to some of you there...

I might have to pick up mye cue again! Cue Bar & Billiard opened a couple of months ago, and it is a fantastic poolhall. Never seen anything like it. 36 pooltables. Also carom, and soon finish making a large vip-room with 4 tables. The poolclub Oslo Biljardklubb have their own room, but...

Out of nothing I got a message from the other side of the Atlantic, from JoeyA today. «Are you still playing pool?» No, I don’t. Haven’t been playing many hours the last 10 years. But when I got the text I had some hours to kill, and thought why not head to the poolhall. Had 2,5 hours of...

I was on Ebay looking around, and noticed that the book «Winning One Pocket» is for sale for $ 850. Luckily I bought the book from the author himself 8 years ago, and the «Shots, Moves & Strategies». I thought it was pricey back then, but I have to admit I got it cheap compared to prices...

Hi folks. I am trying to find threads from my trips to Philippines, but I have only found a few of them. I can't find them, not even while seaching, and I am wondering if they somehow have been deleted? If anyone can help me find the threads I wrote in Janyary/February 2007 about my first...

Pat & Mat playing pool. It's an old children show from the former Czechoslovakia. Remember that this was sent on tv for children in the 80s back home in Norway. Here's an episode with Pat & Mat involving pool http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pwC_3X3g4rs&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DpwC_3X3g4rs

Don't know where this thread belong, but I'll try here. I am not playing pool anymore, just once a month or so, but I've for a long time wanted to order a custommade cuecase. I don't know exactly what I'm looking for, but I do think I want it white. I have a breakcue, jumpcue and regular...

Efren Reyes was invited to Norway this weekend by the owners of a poolhall in the city of Bergen, to play in the Bergen Open 9-ball. 110 players entered this handicap-event, with $ 100 entryfee and about $ 2000 added. Players got games on the wire based on their skillevel, and could get as...

He is in Manila again. On my last trips here I have seen him in more action than anyone, only local hero Lolong is in more action. (Lolong, the guy with more wifes than teeth) Lolong is now giving a whale 5-6-7-8-9-10 race to 17 for lots of pesos. He is up 45 000 so far, winning 17-2 and 17-8...

At my first DCC I played Brumback in one-pocket, and ran 8-and-out to make it 2-2 and my break. I collected the balls, realized I owed a ball, and we called the TD and he said I lost the game, and lost the match 3-1 instead. Now Darren did the SAME on the TV-table. They replace the balls, and...

Here is the top 10 earners from each of the last 5 years. Please note that many tournaments are not included. Many European and Asian tournaments are missing, but these numbers are from the AZ Money List which is probably the best updated list in the world right now. There have been a different...

You know, I don't care much about this event anymore, cause it's way too easy for us europeans to win, so I'm just wondering if we have won yet?

Anyone got results from day 1?

I'm in Philippines again, and like so many times before I got another chance to play Efren. Last Monday he drove hours from his hometown Angeles to Manila just to play me some cheap one-pocket, and then drove back home. That's how much he loves to play. Amazing. Can you imagine Tiger Woods...

From Nick van den Berg's facebook: What an experience. Played my first race to 1000 in straight pool against Stephan Cohen (former world 14.1 champion). I started of very strong but in the end i was struggling with concentration due to fatique ;). Stephan came back on me but fell just a little...
