Getting ready to maybe break tradition ...

Tournament blue is my favorite then green, worst I have ever played on was black. Once I played on a combination of black bed and red rails, school colors ( Northern IL).
When shooting a long shot on a Green cloth, you say, "Lots of Green."
When shooting a long shot on a Wine cloth, you say, "Lots of Wine."
It can help distract a drunk who's about to beat you on your own table.

I'm the same way. For some reason, green cloth seems to be easier on my eyes, than the blue.
Go figure....
Wow ... thanks for all the responses. I am leaning toward Tournament Blue.
The blue shows wear faster than the green and the blue plays a heck of a lot faster than does the green.
The first Diamond Pro I owned had Blue, sold it to MattB shortly after a recover. I now own a new Diamond Pro (blue label) and nothing but Green will be on that baby.

If I were you I would go with the Tournament Burgundy!!!! I found some pink chalk in a Valley practice table I just bought, I can send it to you if you would like.:smile:
A couple years ago I went with the traditional green on my Gold Crown, I am getting ready to have it recovered soon, I may go Tournament Blue. To me it just seems like Blue belongs on Diamonds and green belongs on Gold Crowns.

Colour choice depends on what factors you have to consider.
If you only concearn is the best possible conditions, tournament blue is unbeatable.
But for most peope, the pool table is a big piece of furniture and thats why Simmonis have so many colours to choose from.
Grey, slate and tan, are all colours wich will blend in to most interiors.

I end up playing on both. Green at home and on the 7' tables in league. At another place I play tournaments they switched to light blue. I think my eyes like the green better; but the blue is ok too. When I get recovered at home I'll stay with the green. Saw a table once with black cloth that had a big Harley logo in the center. Looked nice but would have been tough to play on.
God invented cloth and made it green. He made chalk, and made it blue.
I initially opted for 860 Blue/Green. In a year, I was so sick of it, I swapped it out for Simonis Green.
I personally think it's a fad; eye fatigue or not as a flimsy excuse. At best, only marginally documented.
GC maybe. Anything older has to be absolutely, positively green.
Yes, I also think that cars are supposed to be black, while houses should be white! :wave2:

OK ... I think I'm ready to move to Simonis 860 Tournament Blue from I don't even know green, lol. I've cleaned my table many ways over the years but was never really too concerned about the cloth. Any recommendations now that I'm getting the good stuff?
SIMONIS-X1
Is this device really worth the money or is it just BS hype? Kinda pricey so looking for some input.

I can't remember where i saw it.. maybe the table maint section. There's a post about the proper way to clean simonis. X-1 is ok, but a regular vacuuming will do a good job.
hey now,...
I like them all. I do think Tournament Blue on s Black Crown looks nice; as well as Green on a Diamond.
I'll always come home to green though.
