Dave, the way it was explained to me, "Pocket Billiards", as played in Europe, is played on a HUGE "snooker" table, like 14'!  I'm not all that familiar, so I assume it's what is called "snooker" here? Accuracy and form is king in that game. That's why Karen Corr & Allison Fisher do so well here in the states...their accuracy is simply amazing to watch live...they both play the pocket like I've never seen. Once they learned the strategy of 9 ball, the USA women were in for a very hard time. Thanks for the info on the Moori tip. I'm thinking "layered" when my Jacoby needs to be retipped.
