    The Final of the WPC - Gomez vs. Peach

    What time is the final US Eastern. I think Gomez has a extreme coolness about him, but as we all know it can come down to the breaks.

    Bigger Tip Diameter = More Consitency?

    Years ago we all used 13mm+ tips for games like stright pool, eight ball and other games where we thought we needed more control. The larger the shaft size ment a stiffer shaft and the smaller shaft had more whip and any time you used english with a smaller whipper shaft the less control you...

    One of the best unmentioned hustlers...

    I saw Brian play Bucktooth in Sacramento in the mid 70's at the Jointed Que. They were playing for 2-3 hundred dollars a game. Brian was spotting Tooth the six ball. Brian jumped out to around 3000.00 ahead but the weight and the deep pockets of Tooth was a little to much for Brian to bare.

    I cant make up my mind on which rail rubber to use?
