Looking around the room, there is a range of choice of clothing in which to compete for approximately £3000. I would consider this quite a fair amount of money, of which, if I was playing to win, I would seriously consider what I’m wearing and how it will affect my state of play.
For example, I am currently watching two fairly young players, whom will remain nameless, one of whom is dressed plainly in blue jeans, black polo shirt and comfortable white trainers. The other has obviously taken more interest in …

The 21st and 22nd of November are the dates to mark in your diary as the 2009 8-Ball Pool Super Tour reaches it’s finale…

The 2009 8-Ball Super Tour returns to Keynsham Snooker Centre this weekend for event number three in the series…

In a sport surprisingly eager to pick holes in itself, it is a genuine pleasure sometimes to be able to simply say, “Well done…”

Cuesport TV through a new partnership with leading TV Distribution company, Boulder Creek International, have secured a contract between Sky Sports…

“There is no pleasing pool players” goes the oft quoted mantra, and judging by the regular and sometimes gruesome evisceration (metaphorical, sometimes….) of almost everything and everyone associated with the game, far from there being a grain of truth in the statement, there is a boulder sized lump of both perceptiveness and clarity in it.

Craig Marsh put on a near faultless performance at the second 8 Ball Super Tour event of 2009 to lift his first World Rules title…

Carl Morris will be looking to capitalise on his great form at the last Super Tour event in Keynsham when the series returns this weekend in Leicester.
Morris defeated another in-form player in Ronan McCarthy in one of the longest finals in the history of the tour. The match that finished 8-6 in favour of Morris took well over 2 hours and a tournament that was scheduled to finish at around 8pm was not over until 10:30pm.
There will be very fierce competition this time out from a myriad of former Super …

Carl Morris put in an almost flawless performance to lift the first event in this years £48,000 8-Ball Super Tour.
The former WEPF World 8-Ball Champion came up against Irishman Ronan McCarthy in the final and led the match throughout, he eventually lifted the title with an 8-6 win.
The match was marred slightly by an altercation between Carl Morris and referee Melvyn Harley, this heated debate came about through the way Mel was signalling the 30 second time call. Normally this is signalled verbally, but as Carl is deaf a hand …

I’m gonna have a bit of a rant now.
I come from one of the most bitchiest professions in the world – the performing arts. I have been a dancer practically all my life and the competition is high – and so are the comments. To be a dancer you have to be dedicated, know your “equipment”, have the proper training, get a variety of styles under your belt to be an all rounder. I can equate this to pool.
As I sit back and watch those who are best at this …
