They should have slowly returned cues once they had reasonable assurance they were going back to their owners. They probably could had done that with high confidence. If some scammer had enough info and details to scam one or two, just pay the owners for those cues. I've lost several family...

Who can figure out the probability that a 697 beats a 754 50 to 28?

I didn't watch the match or hear exactly what JA said afterward. But a future threat of a slap isn't much of a threat in my book. In the old days, if you threaten to slap another man you'd get laughed at.

Yup, me too. When I was a teenager, I couldn't wait until I got home from school to practice. I would practice hard for sometimes 8-10 hours. I would set up and practice the same shot hundreds of times. I still want to have that drive, but I just cannot make myself do it. Now I play 15-20...

What's the address?

She can't blame all those misses on the cue.

Please post your address; we'll come over to play.

I just learned some fast-food drive thru places outsourced the person taking and entering orders. Sometimes you're talking to someone in India!

You can't scrap a decent pool cue! Put a little money in her and save its life.

Here's mine.

I can't tell for sure, but it may have some veneer missing here. Maybe it's a reflection. This is not normal. I have the same cue (original) and mine are jet black. The bottom shaft doesn't match. In terms of a refinish, opinions very on this. Personally, I'd refinish as opposed to...

Does it have veneer damage down by the wrap or is it a reflection? As others have stated, value is heavily contingent on condition and straightness. From the poor condition I could see, I'd be shocked if the shafts are anywhere close to straight. It could be worth 2-3k if it's a good...

My opponents always play like that.

You know how many racks I've lost being up 7-0? I can't count that high. When you're in that position it feels like it's practically impossible to lose that rack. I'm still surprised and amazed when it happens.

Either that table is a short 3x6, or that guy is HUGE!

We played poker every Friday for years after that. Eventually, a few of our older players passed away and our game fell apart. I lost contact with him probably 15 years ago. Hopefully he's still kicking around somewhere. I didn't let his offer get in the way of our friendship. If anything...

Yeah, there was something special about the way the struck that cue. Such confidence. When I was young, I used to be able to copy / emulate someone's game and stroke. I think I did it unconsciously from people I was trying to learn from. I wish I could have emulated that stroke - I would...

The guy that invited him uninvited him and told him why. The cheater wasn't a friend outside of poker, so I never had any contact with him again. While I'm not a professional poker player by any means, I have played a real lot of poker. The one thing I can say about having a cheater in the...

Yup, about 30-35 years ago I was playing in a weekly Friday night poker game with friends. Low stakes ($1-2). One guy invited a friend of his who played with us for a couple years. The new guy was a fairly regular winner, and I was a somewhat suspicious, but I really didn't believe anyone...

Yup, 125 (I just checked). Let us know how yours comes out and how long it takes.
