Questions for Mike Dechaine

UGETTHE6 all is good. Thanks

I have to be honest didnt care for how Mike answered my question.
Even though his answer was JoeT and Joe's information on racking is great, wasnt what I was looking for .

Hope things work out for you and Mike.

What is "chalking funny" ?

I have heard this phrase used before. I think that blue ring on the ferule looks bad. What makes the difference how you chalk? Why would anyone care? Not trying to change the subject, but this kind of stuff bothers me. I think its just one more thing that's wrong with pool and drives people away that have have dollars to spend and spend them in pool rooms buying food and drinks and cues and cases, not like the water drinking "A" players. I go to a lot of pro tournaments, and I am "always" one of the "few" true spectators there, the rest of the people watching are other players in the tournament. Just something to think about if you really want to grow the sport.
 
It seems like many people in this forum were getting a benefit out of this thread. Your actions are likely to negatively affect this benefit for the AZB community.

Why so selfish? It ain\'t all about you.

Mike Andrews is the most dysfuctional banger in pool. This is just what he does. Obviously never breast fed, wasvtouched by a priest as a child and nobody ever played with him.

Mike, how can you call out pros in 1-pocket with gaff spots and be afraid to play me with the 7 out??

Dechaine, F this guy. Don\'t ever pay him, he\'s a clown.
 
Response to post made by "8-Pack":


Ha. So you need help to cheat someoen when a rack is perfect? Boy your a genius too. Well, you found the right guy to give you advice! Idiot.

But...

You think a TS ref, some of the old guys know how to read a rack? No. Don't try and fool people with that excuse... That is just not bieng honest, for once I want to see you just admit that your a cheater and you manipulate the rack to cheat and give yourself an advantage. After all I have heard you say that if players are dumb enough not to look at the rack or learn how to rack then it isn't your fault. Just admit your a cheat.



So, maybe 8-Pack just wants this knowledge to protect himself from rack manipulation by others in the future. Anything wrong with that?

You seem to have this knowledge yourself, otherwise, how could you be sure MD is cheating? And we obviously can't rely on refs and "old guys" (like me) to spot a bad rack when it's right in front of us, right? Why did you acquire these racking secrets if not to learn to be a cheater yourself?

I think I just might get Joe Tucker's book myself... in the interest of self preservation.
 
Three methods. A equal pieces, I use my tip and a simple ghost ball method.

Mike,
I would appreciate it if you could clarify your answers about the aiming systems you use.

1. Equal Pieces (would this be a DD overlap?)
2. His tip (what tip method do you use?)
3. Simple Ghost Ball (is this your primary aiming system?)

Thanks.
 
Mike, that guys coming like the actual dbag the way he is handling himself in this thread. However if you owe him a buck or whatever just get his paypal or his adress and pay him the debt regardless, don't wait. No need for anyone to hold anything over your head and no need for you to owe anyone anything imo.
 
...............................................good luck Mike

Well there goes an interesting thread. Good luck mike and hope to see ya in the Mosconi making the Europeans cry.
 
So is that why more pro players don't post on here? They know someone will call them out on their bs?
 
I have it and I know how to address the rack if certain situations arise.
What I was wondering how do you address the rack in 9 ball if its a perfect rack.

I cant remember does Joe address a good rack?


If its a perfect rack he makes his opponent get out of his chair and re-rack:smile:

In 9 ball, a perfect rack makes the wing ball dead. Sardo taught us that and it has been reconfirmed many times -- Magic Rack, tapping the balls, etc. If the wing ball doesn't go, your opponent has given you a loose rack. That's been known pretty well for at least 10 years.
 
Bob...If that's true, then how come the pros still come up breaking dry sometimes? Can't all be bad racks...just sayin'.

You have seen Dechaune 1000 times the last 3 years. He has won 40,000 over the last 2 years in tournaments. Why not go up to him and ask him for the money? Or demand it! With interest! With the same tenacity as your posts.

So if you owe me money, you won't pay until I ask for it? Lol wut? Months down the road (after giving you ample time to settle)....I come up and ask where the money is that you owe, and you go "here it is." I ask why it took so long and you say "all you had to do is ask and I would have given the money I owed to you months ago" facepalm.jpg lol?
