This is my first post here but many of you know me from AzBilliards. I'm not much of a one pocket player but I do like the game. I just don't get to play it much around here, or any game for that matter, except on the bar tables. I'm sure if I took a 4 hour drive up to Phoenix I'd get to play it for as much as I wanted to lose. Anyway, just wanted to say hi and I'll be sure to visit more often. Peace to all.

Waddup, dog. I like this one for short rack.

Hit it right with a good rack and the back ball goes to your hole every time. Saw Cliff torturing some guy with it................

Peace

Hi John. Haven't seen you since Hard Times in Bellflower before I moved up north 10 or 11 years ago. Hope things are going well.

An alternate rack might be to take the back ball away from the 9 ball rack, and still play a race to 5 balls. If both players got to 4, then you could spot the odd ball up. Why not break the regular way? Perhaps it would sell out a bank too easily?

Hey Doc

Hey Doc

I found that, myself anyway, would scratch more often using a conventional break of just skimming the head ball. Had to get it a bit fuller to prevent the scratch.

Under two months till the Classic. On pins and needles :D

Later, Pel
