    US OPEN Championships $45,000 Added Las Vegas April 3-14, 2022

    Watching Tony/Roberto in the banks tourney, and I think Tony wants a word with the person who cut those pockets on the table. ;) But man, these pockets seem tough compared to what we'd see at the TV table at the Derby.

    Banks ring games in your poolroom?

    +1 to Dennis's rules when we used to have these back in college...a long time ago. We did have some form of a push out and we definitely didn't lose a ball for scratches or fouls. I think we allowed kicks, but can't recall 100%.

    Nice job at Red Shoes "Ironman" Banks tourney Ike

    Late to this one, but congrats again, Ike. I remember 9-ball tourneys at Ride the Nine in Bloomington, going there to get whooped by the likes of Hawk, you, Jesse, Sarah, etc. We used to bring a little group of us from Urbana (big Boyd, bad Boyd, etc.), but still never made much of a dent. Was...

    A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words

    I know this has been discussed somewhere in the forums before, but in the "spirit" of Ghost (see what I did there), I'm bumping up some ole photos that should easily bring a smile to all: black and white photos from ~1970 in Bensinger's: http://www.helainegarren.com/index.php/project/ I have...

    So I actually got to play Efren three games of One Pocket yesterday!

    Wow, that's awesome, Steve, what an experience! Next time he shows up in the Boston area, let me know as I'd be happy to donate to the cause also. :D Makes me wonder if pros could actually make a decent wage if they did more of these, assuming they had someone putting them up each night so they...

    In case you were planning to go to California Billiards today for their monthly one-pocket tournament today, don't. It's cancelled due to a 2-day 9-ball tournament they have there this weekend. :/
