i have to agree with daryl on this one... i myself was in brandenburg last year but this year the pockets are even bigger.... id like to see the pockets 4inch cause when u can nearly fit 3 balls into a pocket i dont agree with that.... i wish these governing bodies would sort these tables out as all you get is sorry the pockets where cut wrong.... its not good enough in my eyes for än european championship..... i always thought it took skill to pot a ball but on these tables if you can hit the ball in the direction of the pocket it will go.... i think i may go back to playing snooker

WOW!!.....and i got told that the EPBF were gonna start getting the pockets "shimmed" from the Czech Eurotour last month.....then when the pockets were the biggest ever in the history of the game they gave the same reason that they had been cut wrong and that they would be sorted for the next event! Hmmmm.....hope they are tighter for Italy! -----------------

Yeah......come to think of it, why do i go along with all the players that want the pockets tightening?....sometimes the way i play i wish it was just one big gulley all the way around the table with no cushions! hahahaha.....then again that would be a hard game.....trying not to scratch! -----------------

Drago just won 8-7, Nick just picked up the 5 I think it was then through it back on the table from his chair, I am guessing he missed a 5 to win the match?!

Hello,
That means Tony is bound to get a medal now doesn't it. Let's hope it's a gold one.
Chris.

Yes, I agree. Tony's been playing great 8 ball recently and i'd love to see him win. His performance in the Grand Masters was awesome.
