What's new

Happy Birthday John. Something tells me you'll have a good one.

Playing daily at the Santa Clara Senior Center and doing my best to keep the tables clean.

Working hard to get the folks to start playing a little One Pocket rather than 15-1 Last Pocket 8-Ball.

New member, first post, actually question. I understand the different or optional rules regarding making a ball in YOUR pocket on your break rerack or continue your inning but what is the rule for the breaker pocketing a ball on the break in the opponents pocket?

Bob Bills was the owner when I worked there and showed up most days. The food was fresh and delicious. Players from Family billiards like Delbert Wong, Charles Tam and Lawerence Lee were not only good players but consummate gentlemen. Every game from 3 cushion to straight pool to nine and six ball to eight ball and one pocket were played daily.

In the late 80’s player like Efren, Jose Parica, Delbert Wong and Hawaiian Brian played Filipino Gene in marathon matches. The quality of competition was astounding. Players from LA, NY, Chicago, Seattle,Houston, Las Vegas and parts of Canada would descend upon the Palace Billiards looking for action.
