    Vegas this week

    I am coming to Vegas for the week (arriving Sunday) but I am unsure if I want to bring my cues, since they have to check them in luggage. Anyone want to play some $30 a game one pocket to entice me to bring my cues?

    Frost/Orcollo

    I don't understand scotts' shot here. I know he made it on Efren late one morning at the DCC but, he wasn't 'under the ball'. Please tell me why you wouldn't play the bank combo since you need 2. Is leaving it on the spot worth that much? I'm confused.

    making last ball to spot

    Very noob question that has probably been answered but, short rack banks 4-4 and the ball in the jaws and cant be nudged. Surely I dont follow it in and spot 2, what do you shoot and where do you leave the cue ball? The ghost ball denotes the foot spot.

    My fouls dont count

    Lets say I am playing 8-8 but my fouls don't count. The count is 7-7 and he locks the last ball deep in his pocket. What do I do. If I scratch how many balls come or does he simply win the game.

    banking

    14.1 question

    This is about 14.1 and running 100 and out. I posted earlier "how does one run 100 and out", I was asking if someone breaks and runs 100 or if someone runs 100 after he gets a shot. I worded it funny so my responses earlier were there is an extra ball and you keep breaking the stack open. I...
