Absolutely. I figured this could be used as a consolidated space for anything related to pool, especially home table pics and any cues you might have.
If you have a table in your home, it's special and I'm jealous lol. Do you know the make of that table?
I'm not 100% positive, but I do know it's a Chinese manufactured table. I didn't want to drop the extra grand at the time for an Olhausen or Brunswick table. It's crazy. I paid a little over 2K for that table four years ago, and in looking to try to answer your inquiry, the cheapest option, American or Chinese made, runs 3K now
No doubt tables are quite expensive, but should last a lifetime if maintained well. If I ever get a home with the space I'd love to get a Diamond or Rasson.I'm not 100% positive, but I do know it's a Chinese manufactured table.

Maybe someday we'll get to play, you can spot me the 7Great thread. From about 96-06 I owned an 8ft Olhausen with leather drop pockets and an inch of slate topped with beautiful midnight blue simonis cloth.
Had a nice set of Brunswick Centennial’s and a couple of Meucci cues, I think I still have one of them.
Just like fast cars, jet skis and beautiful houses on lakes, all those things go bye bye at a discount when you get a divorce.
I’ll still race to 5 for $100 a game with anybody.
Back in my prime (playing 30 hours a week in NYC) I would take you up on this. Now, I definitely need a spot. LolI’ll still race to 5 for $100 a game with anybody.
Nice Diamond!
Said every pool player I ever met haha. Nice hustle. Pay attention kids, if you're greeted with this line in any establishment, you're in a bad game
When I bought my first home in 96, I literally purchased my table within the first two weeks after closing. I thought having a mortgage payment and all the other expenses associated with a house would put the clamps on my regular pool hall visits at the time.i used to always say when i bought a house, i would buy a pool table before i bought a bed. then i didn't.
Wow, ok, that really is a buzz kill. Depends how you look at it but I think there is some truth to what that man said to you. I've often thought the very same thing actually, like if I had to do it all over again would I spend 30-60hrs a week in a pool hall? For me the answer is probably yes. I really regret taking the past 10 years off of pool, actually. Having a steady girl now and other life things doesn't give me the amount of time I would want or need to really improve my game, gamble more, play more tournaments, travel. Still, I'm getting out when I can now and it feels great.
There’s always another train coming and never try to be anything your not.
I had a perfect marriage for about 10 years, till I didn’t.
Dude, you're doing it wrong. The mattress goes on top of the pool table, then you get a step stool to get in your new bed. Life hack.i used to always say when i bought a house, i would buy a pool table before i bought a bed. then i didn't.
Hope it provides a good laugh. A little pool in grandmas front yard.
Ok, had to do a little digging but I knew these old photos existed somewhere. I want to say this is about 1979 and the beginnings of my degeneracy.

https://www.predatorcues.com/usa/predator-ikon4-5-pool-cue.htmlMy vote is to buy a new cue
What are you looking at?
I would get the Revo shaft as well.
Nice looking cue. I have a Z2 shaft I might sell as well, bought it many years ago now and never could get used to using LD shafts.
