What is the maximum number of balls possible to pot in consecutive strokes in a match? I say there is a possibility of 72 in the following scenario: Alternate break off format. Player “a” breaks off. Player “b” shoots and does not pot a ball. Player “a” then makes a total clearance potting...

if u plan to use often, tape is too much trouble. a camera that records to a card might be good, you would have to take the card out to download to a hard drive via your computer, might involve climbing a stepstool every time. webacm permanently mounted might be best, just plug into a laptop...

what is your budget. leave camera mounted at pool table or use for other things too.? do you use pc or mac? any video editing software? some really great still cameras used by indie film people these days. thinking panasonic gh2 with an older lens that uses an adapter, no tape, sd card, look...

US perspective here. In general 12’ tables have to be tougher than the smaller ones. However many 10’ US made tables from before WWII had pockets much smaller than those made more recently in any nation afaik. I recently measured a 1929 vintage Brunswick and found the corner pockets were...

For years there has been discussion of when, not if, a snooker player would change over to pool and dominate there. On youtube we can see Steve Davis win a 14.1 match against Mizerak decades ago. Also O’sullivan prevailing over Strickland in a short 9-ball set, just a few years back...

5x10 means i will stay home thanks for the info. i was on the fence about attending as a spectator. finding out that the 14.1 will be on 5x10 made it an easy decision for me to just stay home.

Great playing!!! thanks for posting it. I see use of the term world record as appropriate here. after all guinness book is full of 1000s of unofficial records. Max is not claiming it is anything beyond the hi run caught on camera. until someone comes with a higher run, new or old, on video or...

no 14.1 league in nashville nashville is not the bright center of the universe for 14.1,,,,it is a 9ball, one pocket, 8ball town.... so no 14.1 league in nashville. there is a fun l tourney one night per week at HQ. usually 8-ball, sometimes 9ball $5 entry, free table time. all entry $ goes to...

side pocket break nice work i do not play well enough to critique. i do suggest better lighting though. i thought you were not getting to the 2nd rack until you came with the nice side pocket break. somewhere there is a video of Efren using that break in a tournament. I see you have a...

14th ball? let me make sure i understand. 14th ball means 2 balls left on table, right? isnt the 14 ball the keyball and not the breakball. shooter pockets one and scratches. ball is spotted normally on the foot spot normally. there are still 2 balls on the table and it is still not time to...

5x10 is a dealbreaker for me i appreciate all the effort and expense involved in this event. 5x10 is a dealbreaker for me. i would be going in hopes of seeing some of he top players run hundreds. i think on a 10' that is a real longshot. i will keep an eye on the posts to see what size tables...

Sigel below the rack From what i heard on some commentaries, Sigel likes below the rack breaks pretty well, uses them often, and of course runs on out often from that break.

anyone have info on 14.1 events at dcc for 2013 ?

just inherited a 20 yo steepleton 46x92 leather pocket table. i will be moving it myself. i have moved tables before. my question: will i need only socket wrench, screw drivers etc. or some special spanner wrench like the old brunswicks used? thanks, jr in gnashville

top line table i will be at oak valley lanes soon and i will take a close look at that table and make sure it is the same.. one interesting note, none of the top line tables in that pr had any nameplate on the rail. room proprietor who bought the tables new told me the brand. they all had...

leather pocket tables vs later tables 46x92 I will be buying a used 46x92 table soon. I have settled on that size since that is what I am used to. Looking for average or even loose pockets to match my ablility. Centennial and even anniversary would be tough in my price range unless I find a...

topline table i'm fairly sure this is a topline from about 1980, which was a brandname used by national out of ciincinnati...pocket corner irons look identical. earlier toplines looked very different....oak valley pr here in gnashville had 10 of em in the 1980s......ten foot snooker is still...

price of 10 foot tables some really nice old 10 foot tables come on the market fairly often. i expect that they bring less than half of what they would if they were 9 foot or even 8 foot. as always a motivated seller will give a better deal than a dealer. It looks like Snooker tables and 3...

14.1 in MO try Mark Wilson See if you can find Mark Wilson in St. Louis. He is a real gentleman, a great sportsman, a fine player and great pool instructor. Maybe he runs a pr there now . He taught me some about 14.1 back in the 80s when he was a house pro here in Nashville. I was not a...
