DCC 14.1 challenge ideas Bob, I have a few ideas. 1. no match tournament for the final 8, just the daily awards. 2. no score keepers required, each player must score their own runs. (like golf honor system) 3. only need someone to manage the table assignments. 4. players must volunteer an...

why will 4 more tables be available ? Is the straight pool challenge not going to happen ? If so,, what can we do to make it happen ? yoda

Moscow's 526 If I could run 526.....I would get to 525 , and miss on purpose to honor the great Mosconi and what he did for the game !!! No one else should hold this record.

vanover Can you please post some details about a funeral service, or contact information . Many of us are not facebook poeple.

No such animal ! There is no such thing as a 'back' cut. ! There are left cuts and right cuts. This is why you fail !

A little more info…. At the Texas open, I tried to talk to the tournament director about this issue, but it was received harshly. I was in favor of the magic rack, but not the slow break that everyone was using. He stated that he didn't care what the players liked or didn't like…. He "...

9 ball is becoming too much about the break. Example: This year's texas open : 1 or 2 players mastered the slow break, and they were almost impossible to beat. Their matches were very lopsided, even against top players. The game needs to be modified so that the break becomes a smaller...

I agree with learning as many as possible…. …then you will find that most are pure bunk.! Find something concrete and objective, and stay away from the subjective systems. Or…, do what most pros do, …. don't aim at all !

Will be there I will be playing in the "Texas Sauna" again this year. If nothing else, just to see if I can survive the heat ! It's a great tourney.

And only 2. They are : 1. Subjective ways 2. Objective ways. To play at a high level, you need to be trying to get to number 2.

Smoke free They keep this room pretty well ventilated. I will be playing again this year, and I hate smoke. So it will be tolerable for most players. However, at this room, HEAT is the problem. It will probably be 95 to 100 degrees in there during a day time match!

After 40 years of playing pool at a high level, I am convinced that pool must become like golf - to even survive at all. How , you might ask ? Pool must become player versus the table, and/or player versus a par number. We have proven that player vs player doesn't work, and we have no tour...

I love the game. I love the study of it, the appreciation of it, the beauty of the struggle. I love that no one really masters it, only some seem to come close, but they are the wise ones that would admit that they too, are still the students. I love that the world fades away as one is on a...

Yes, this is exactly right, but remember, just playing around here, This is the right idea, but remember, just bored and playing around with things, not extolling a new or revolutionary aiming system. Or any aiming system at all. Just being interested in how the human spirit can make a...

Get on the 10 footer and show me YOUR patterns !!! All your patterns go out the window, because you can't reach anything !!! Get on there yourself dumshit and show me your skills !!! NO,,, i don't see you at the table, do i ?

This is not my method, just playing around with it it's fun to try different things, just experiment.

Wish i could list my 40 years of running 10 and 15 and 25 then missing ! If i could list my 40 years of runs that ended during the 1st rack, then maybe an occasional high run wouldn't raise such eye brows !!! Dear moderator, please remove my high run stats, and remove me completely from this...

And one last parting thought..... Where is the video of you running balls on this table ?

My notes from this year to myself.... Here are my notes to myself from this year...... (may 30,2012 last post) 14.1 stats jan 2 104 jan 8 122 jan 15 47 apr 6 112 may 28 85 playing very strong with 2 steps.... line up cue, stroke parallel jan 23,2013 CTE used in local...

Just for fun, and something different.... Step 1. Line up every shot, (that is not straight in), as a half ball hit. Step 2. Use your tip or some other adjustment to 'fix' the angle, since most wont be exactly half ball hits.... Step 3. Fire when ready.. The human body, or mind, will...
