    DCC Rules - a visual quandary

    Watching the Ed vs. Oscar match neither player observed the no dual negative scores. The players were not slow but it was 2 hours and the second game wasn't finished. The players were advised about the Grady rule but didn't change play. If they had I believe 4 balls may have needed to be...

    Simple wwyd(or is it?)

    Last ball is in top corner pocket on your side. Only ball on the table- you both need 1. If you leave the okey dokey for your opponent it is probably a 75% make to his corner on this table. If he doesn't make it it will be close.

    4 balls on the spot but..

    I needed all 4 with the cueball in front of my pocket. I know from the kitchen a 2 rail kick into those balls can be strong. So I recognized a 3 rail kick would accomplish the same thing. Worked great. Later playing another game I had the balls lined up about the same with almost the full stack...

    The www and forums

    20 years ago my son was going to write a paper about Grizzly bears. We searched Grizzly bear on the web and the first dozen entries were all about gay men. Now that wasn't the subject matter he was planning to write about. That night I was at the pool hall and telling a player about that...

    Jump shots in 3cushion

    Are jump shots taboo in 3 cushion ? I have seen shots where the cueball "jumps" clear of the object balls but never a jump like to clear a blocking ball.

    From the scene in Rounders which 1pkt player most resembles Matt Damon's character ? For me it is Efren with his "innocuous" little moves.

    Out moving ?

    When someone like Chip plays someone like Fedor it is way more difficult for Chip to out move them because guys like Fedor have such great ball striking abilities. Remember our Billy playing SVB years ago ? Billy said he just strikes the ball so well.... I think Chip is going to have the same...
