Also what is Stratchan SG cloth and how is it different?
Cool 15 ball run to one pocket(+added another 15 ball run to first post..)
- Thread starter Poolmanis
- Start date
I think it is the Finnish variation of pyramid. Similar in a way to the UK's variation of American 8 ball. I remember him posting that they actually have tighter pockets than pyramid.
It is close to Stracthan N10 cloth. Which is used to all Snooker majors. Strachan 6811 tournament used to best next best thing after N10. Now they made superglide between those 2. It is really close to N10 from speed and playing ability but last a lot longer in good shape than N10.
N10 is really thin and wears fast. Even many pros nowadays prefer superglide over N10 in their practice table, so they dont have to get it re-felted every 2 months..

Fine. When I get there we can play that.I have some info on this my older nice Kaisa run of 81(subtitles english). Match is actually only to 60 points normally. I play Kaisa tourneys sometimes and won some Champs and ranking events too

Do you pick your pocket before you break?
Rough life ….oh the new 12’ box is on the way…..Thanks!
Room is on Oulu, Finland. Our private club. That 12 foot Russian Pyramid table is goner soon and will be replaced with another 12ft Snooker table with Stratchan Superglide cloth
Main room of club have 7 11ft kaisa tables and 2x 12 ft Pyramid tables.
I also hope we soon can replace 11ft Kaisa Billiard table on left with 10 feet Gabriels Carom table. Carom tables not available in Finland so we are stalking good deals from Europe.. Trying to get one-time-used-tournament table.
Best

PS: enjoy in good health, maybe someday I’ll drop by and say hello.
Keeping those big slates level must be a major headache.
Actually Kaisa is similar game with one pocket too. Both have own cueball and there is a lot of tactical moves in play. One try get good opening shots while trying to put opponent in trouble.
I saw people like one pocket runs.. so i decided to upload another 15 ball run. It is nice too but not as insane like first one.
Thanks.
Actually it is Dynamic 3 table. New Dynamic 3 tables are pretty good. Not as good as Diamond or GC but close enough for under 4k price new. I have shimmed both tables tighter than regular ones but this one still plays loose even pockets are 10.8cm. Another have tighter playing pockets but now it have cloth more worn out so im now playing looser one.
Yes. I am using same pocket always alone because as right handed i get less stretch shots shooting on that pocket..
Was there a reason for the bank or did you overcook the previous shot? Beautiful run - mostly.
I had wrong side cut on second last ball. If i try get position from one rail I probably have 2 inch target zone. So i tried to brush last ball to move it better and if i don´t hit it i will have always bank. That is reasonWas there a reason for the bank or did you overcook the previous shot? Beautiful run - mostly.

It looks like something you enjoy doing I like doing it too. How often would you say after the break you have no shot and can't make the first ball?
