in all my years of playing pool I don't think I have ever seen a ball bounce back off a tiny crumb, good match played in a good spirit by two good teams

Patriots 6-4 Cuemasters

No complaints about the result and we nicked the last two or it could have been even worse, but that has to be one of the most tedious matches I can remember. Two and a half hours of scrappy dross.

I refuse to believe that from a Valley regular !!!

As for the pool, I echo Tony's comments (No, not the terrible jokes) in that I've never seen anything like what happened at "Crumbgate" last night.

Words cannot do the bizzareness of it justice.

That crumb could easily have messed up my shot. Lucky I saw it and was able to use it :sprint:

Ok, so am I the only one who is intrigued to find out what crumbgate is all about?

The black ball is about an inch from the bottom rail. Fran has to be fair done a great clearance and hits his last positonal short too hard. There is no doubt that the white would have frozen to the rail and it would have been impossible to cut back. He would have to produce a miracle quadruple or something.

Any how about a 1/2 inch from the cushion the white hits a biscuit crumb and actually screwed back off itleaving a virtually straight black.

It was just a bizarre thing to see.

Would never happen in one of our games. Not with Darren Porter around.

Sounds like it was more like a whole biscuit than a crumb. Would have loved to see that! lol
