POOL anyone?

[Bahco]

Anyone fancy a game of pool on these long cold nights.

Highly addictive.

It's just like playing it in the pub!
I'll need about ten pints before I'll be any good at it.

5,3??

I only got 850....

 

[PrenticeBoyofDerry]

I got 0 on my first go, didn't quite get the cue action and decided to read how play then
Then 400 and 950, so I decided I needed to be hydrated the scores steadily improved until I got to the dizzy heights of being ranked 25031 in the world, then the juice ran out and that coincided with my form, me dribbling and falling asleep. Sunday evenings are they not the best

Yahoo Pool is canny. You play against peeps from all over the world. Some are too good but you can set up a practice table. You need to register, it's free though and you get another HotMail account. I use mine to sign up for competitions, register with Forums (like this one), etc. That way all the Junk Mail goes to the Hot Mail account and not my main account.

Tried it again. Now I'm getting better.

You get more time if your pot rate is high enough.

I got onto my second rack and scored 2,500.

You mean you were getting beat a lot!

 

[tim west]

they were using that software that gives you the onscreen guideline so basically you watched while they pocketed all the balls from scratch with some at impossible angles and multiple bounces off cushions.
I thought something was fishy and eventually discovered the software.

3rd Go - 94 balls - Score 18825. Addictive as anything!
