Never counted out
There is a table I have been practicing on a couple times a week that has been kicking my butt! An 8 foot Olhausen with this cheap Mali cloth on it. Mali is what the local retailer puts on it when you buy one, I know because I have a similar table bought from the same place.
Anyway, I have been playing extremely well on Gold Crowns with Simonis, so I have been trying to figure out what it is with this one. I hate it when people make excuses, but it has to be the cloth on this table. I already know the cloth rolls like crap and is very slow and inconsistent. It seems to grab the ball and on some shots actually change the angle, but more often then not the rails seem to grab and put more spin on the object ball allowing it to jar in the pocket. My speed is very inconsistent on this cloth, its dark purple which makes it hard to see the edges of the darker colored balls as well. Its killing me, am I crazy or can cloth make that much of a difference on how the balls roll?
