And hey, you Snooker guys? Wow. Just... wow. Seriously. I'm a snooker guy lol. But not one that thinks the earth curves in 12ft!! I'll take money off pool players hussling in bars, and I'm a decent snooker player on my day. If you moan about the table in a pro environment you can't be that good at pool, the pockets are like buckets!! Funny stuff tho, I've been there in clubs. ------------------------------------- Truth is like the sun.

| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 77762657 United States07/11/2019 05:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Don’t know. I’ve read the forum out for the day. They’ll continue back and forth over it though that’s for sure. One thing that’s kind of cool is that they’ll let one another ‘have it’ and a couple days later they’re cutting up again like nothing happened. I mostly lurk as a lot of those guys and dolls are pros. They are extremely helpful when anyone has a question. |

Or they could just use that thing with the little bubble in it The Starrett levels are an extremely controversial topic, believe it or not. They’ll jump your tail in an instant over a brief mention. They’ll argue about the true level of engineering levels (like Starretts) literally to the ten-thousandths, post after post, pro and con. I feel like I don’t really have OCD when I read there - lol |

Obsessives need something to obsess about. Think of it as the anorexia of billiards. And keep in mind a poor workman blames his tools; the satellite level guy won't be any better and he'll move on to the weight distribution, and concentricity of his cues next.
