I think it's the 4? Could be wrong on that. I just like the bronze colored accents.Aren't gciii's the ones with the slate sagging issues?
That’s strange - Did they change the design of the cross beams under the slate?The gc4s are that saggers.
The 4s sagged because the frame design no longer directly supported dte head/foot rails at the ends.That’s strange - Did they change the design of the cross beams under the slate?
Yes, thanks. Strange they would change it from previous designs? I guess maybe to try to save a few $$?The 4s sagged because the frame design no longer directly supported dte head/foot rails at the ends.
Not sure if that directly answered ya!
Don't sleep the silver ones!I think it's the 4? Could be wrong on that. I just like the bronze colored accents.
No idea on that .Yes, thanks. Strange they would change it from previous designs? I guess maybe to try to save a few $$?
How many balls does the side and corner pockets hold with the sponge?Diamond strongly discouraged me from ordering a Pro-Am with drop pockets. And by strongly discouraged, I mean refused to sell me one.
So, I converted mine
Every once in a while, if I'm practicing something like straight pool or one pocket, I'll remove the sponges and let the balls use the return.

6 and 8How many balls does the side and corner pockets hold with the sponge?
Yeah most of mine are either on diamonds or older older Brunswicks. Interesting about the 2 tables shooting different. I just need something 9ft. A 9ft feels like a football field compared to my 8ft. Thanks for the feedback. Any experience with rasson or predatorIt really depends on where you are going with this. If you plan on doing leagues and/or tournaments, it might be best to get what they are playing on. I would have preferred to have a gold crown, but 99% of the pool played outside of my home is on Diamonds, that is just the way it is...
That being said, it doesn't make sense to me to own a Diamond Professional vs a Pro-Am. They are both ugly, but the Pro-Am is so ugly it is beautiful, lol. And you don't really have to worry about dings and such. The Professional does not shoot the same as a Pro-Am, at least in my opinion.
100% Tons'o'Hype with Diamond tables. They do play very differently.If you haven't played on a diamond, they play way differently than real pool tables. Don't spend 10k on one without playing on a diamond for a few hours.
Also agree on them being ugly. However I think their version of "flush pockets" the worst of the main players in the table market.They are also ugly. The only thing diamond got right is the flush pockets.
...or a new table of any other manufacturer. There's a unwarranted premium with buying a diamond that I'll never understand.If you are willing to spend diamond money, I expect you will be happier with a gold crown that had been restored. They will be what you were used to playing on in the nineties.

Having owned 4 tables, the diamond is far and away the best.100% Tons'o'Hype with Diamond tables. They do play very differently.

I'd even give the nod to the new version of the Valley BB over the diamond effort.They are the only flush pockets I've ever played on, I'd likely agree if I had other experience.
Well that may be more persuasive if we knew what models the other 3 wereHaving owned 4 tables, the diamond is far and away the best.
So solid and consistent, compared to any other I've played on.
Drop Pocket.Which diamond? I'm trying to understand if diamond has a pockets only table and not just a return ball table. Not sure what the right terminlogy is for that.
Nobody is bringing Diamond 1 piece slate down stairs...like 900#Ok thank ya. So they play the same??
also Cloth preference, pocket size? It looks like if you have decent stairs I'll need a 3 pc slate.
3s are cheap all the way around...import table.Aren't gciii's the ones with the slate sagging issues?
Have you seen the price of a new GC? It's more than a Diamond. A new Rasson is right around the same as a Diamond a Predator is more.100% Tons'o'Hype with Diamond tables. They do play very differently.
