    Diamond Billiards Cape Coral

    I haven't been to Diamonds in Cape Coral since we lived there for 3 months in 2012. It was a great place for playing pool then, particularly to retired guys like me who want to play in the afternoon. We're going back to Cape Coral next week for 10-14 days. I'm bringing the fishing poles and...

    Looking again for afternoon pool in Raleigh, Durham, Cary NC

    I agree - it's a nice place. But there still aren't many players there in the afternoons. I don't know about evenings.

    Looking again for afternoon pool in Raleigh, Durham, Cary NC

    We've been here for two years now, and I've been able to find some afternoon players at Buck's Billiards in Cary, but as it's sometimes totally empty, I'd like to find some other options. Live in Brier Creek, but willing to travel for a good game with good players and tables. I'm retired, and...

    Afternoon pool players in Cary / Raleigh / Durham, NC

    We're here - relocated to the Brier Creek, Raleigh area and looking to find afternoon pool players. Nine ball, eight ball or scotch doubles are my preferences, but open to anything. PM or email me so that I can get back to my regular schedule of 5 afternoons a week of pool playing - the wife...

    Wilmington, NC area-Where to go to find afternoon poolplayers

    One snooker table remains at Breaktime. In the afternoons, pool was $1 per hour on the nine foot tables. Nice place.

    Wilmington, NC area-Where to go to find afternoon poolplayers

    Breaktime was definitely a good suggestion. Good, friendly pkayers, nice staff, clean tables. Thanks for the suggestion. Rack'm is nearby, and a little rough around the edges. More of a bar than a pool hal. Might find a good game there. Junction does not open until 3pm, and seems to be...

    Afternoon pool players in Cary / Raleigh / Durham, NC

    We've checked out the Wilmington, NC area for retirement, and are now off to visit Raleigh / Cary. I'm retired, a good player who plays 5 afternoons a week, 4-6 hours a day (nice wife!). What pool halls or bars with pool tables should I visit during our quick stop in Cary.? I drive 45...

    Wilmington, NC area-Where to go to find afternoon poolplayers

    I live in Phoenix and right now visiting the Wilmington and South Port areas for relocation. I am retired, play at least five days a week (nice wife). I prefer to play in a nice place, with clean tables and good competitors. I'd appreciate any suggestions about where to go look for a game...

    Mobile, Fairhope, Gulf Shores, AL Pool Scene?

    Thanks, cycopath. So, if we're living in Spanish Fort, Daphne or Fairhope, I'm within 30-40 minutes of decent pool halls in Mobile. If we're living in Gulf Shores or Orange Beach, I'm withing 30-40 minutes of decent pool halls in Pensacola. Correct?

    Retirement and Pool....not all it's cut out to be!!!

    This is EXACTLY why my wife is insisting that we not relocate anywhere that isn't within 30 miles of good place for me to play pool in the afternoons! Smart lady. (The retirement communities in Florida were her first choice, but she is unable to get health insurance in that state, and 11 years...

    Mobile, Fairhope, Gulf Shores, AL Pool Scene?

    Wife and I became really interested in fishing and boating when we spent 3 months in Cape Coral, FL earlier this year. She's always loved being by the water, any water, and fishing. The fishing in the Phoenix area sucks. REALLY sucks. We've both been in Phoenix for over 20 years. The 115...

    Mobile, Fairhope, Gulf Shores, AL Pool Scene?

    120 miles round trip 4-5 afternoons a week to play pool? As much as I love the game, I wouldn't drive that far if they paid me.

    Mobile, Fairhope, Gulf Shores, AL Pool Scene?

    I'm retired, play pool 4-5 afternoons a week, and considering relocating from the Phoenix area to the Mobile, AL / Fairhope, AL. May also have a look at Gulf Shores. I don't care if it's a fancy billiard hall with 20 9-foot Diamond tables, or a simple bar with 2-3 7-foot tables in good...

    Pool Hall Wanted!!!!! TN!!!

    That sounds less than ideal for a guy who plays 4-5 afternoons a week, for 3-6 hours a day. Thanks for the heads up!

    Pool Hall Wanted!!!!! TN!!!

    Timing is everything. After considering FL for our retirement, wife thought we should look at TN. She's smart, and knows to check that there's a pool hall nearby for me (along with fishing for both of us). And she sends me this thread. So - if nobody buys this place, does that mean I'm not...

    Pool Halls/Pool Bars in SW Florida

    Actually, we are not planning on coming back this winter - want to stay in my own home in AZ for awhile (we've been, and still are, in Ajijic, Mexico until October). We looked at The Landings when we were there earlier this year. Not really what we are looking for. In fact, Cape Coral in...
