We clean all our 22 racks of pool balls every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. This ball polisher is only 4 months old and we're already replacing the polishing inserts. I guess that's a good thing.

We do apologize, but the kitchen will be closed tonight as our scheduled cook has an emergency he has to deal with, and our other cook has his kids tonight. Join us in sending prayers to our cook.

Currently refining the prototype for the score‑keeping screens and live camera holders that will be mounted over every table. Once I get it cleaned up and looking less like a late‑night caffeine project, I’ll move on to 3D printing — and that’s when things get interesting. Then it’s just a matter of ordering the other 18 dual‑screen units.
Can't wait for these to go and allow players stream to YouTube.

Alright Capone’s family, story time.

We get a ton of requests to check camera footage. And by ton, we mean everything from:

- “I can’t find my cue.”
- “Someone grabbed my stuff by accident.”
- “Someone grabbed my stuff not by accident.”
- And the classic: “Can you pull the video of my legendary 8‑ball shot on… ?”

Look, we adore you. Truly. But trying to hunt down footage with zero details is like someone giving directions by saying “turn left by the tree.” Cool. Which tree. The one that looks like a tree.

When we ask for specifics like time, table number, what you were wearing, or where you last saw your gear, we’re not being dramatic. We’re just trying not to spend three hours watching footage of identical bags and identical sticks that all look like they were cloned in a lab.

Yes, someone really asked us to search from 9 p.m. to midnight for a missing stick. That is three hours of us staring at video of objects we have never seen before, hoping they magically introduce themselves.

And about the “Can you download my amazing shot” requests. Listen, we believe you. But if you want highlight‑reel footage of your Efren Reyes shots, we strongly recommend setting your phone up to record your matches until we get our live recording cameras installed.. That way you can relive your greatness anytime without us becoming full‑time video editors.

We appreciate your understanding, and we are always happy to help you find missing equipment. Just help us help you by giving us the details that actually matter.

9ft table side progress. Finishing up the LEDs on the trusses along the whole front, finalizing the display cases at the front door..... Then we start the bathrooms

I'm sorry but we won't be able to do breakfast tomorrow so you can bring your outside food in the morning as well as coffee. We did today's as a trial run and it was fantastic but unfortunately our cook cannot make it tomorrow to do breakfast as he is working until 2:00 in the morning and kind of enjoys having some sleep. Thanks for understanding but for the next tournaments we will have it on both days.
