The Maharaja Does it Again!
Imran Majid has continued his fantastic form on the GB9ball Tour by winning his 3rd title in four tournaments.
At the first outing in Solihull he won both the Pro Division and the main tournament to take home £2200.
On this occasion at the GB9 Southern Masters he lifted the Main Tour event again. It could have been a double-double though had he not arrived late for
The Saga (and not the Masters sponsor!) continues.
Ronnie O’Sullivan’s comments at the China Open in a post press conference have been dubbed as ‘unacceptable’ by World Snooker chief Sir Rodney Walker. He has personally apologised to the promoter of the Honghe Industrial World Snooker China Open and also sent his apologies to anyone in China that may have been offended by O’Sullivans comments.
That’s right the most eagerly anticipated tournament in the snooker calendar is upon us with the 888.com World Snooker Championships starting today (19th April).
John Higgins will start the defence of the title he won last year against a former world finalist in Matthew Stevens, they are playing as I type, the match started at 10am in the Crucible and on the other table is Neil Robertson against
Mark Selby has been eliminated in the first round of this years 888.com World Snooker Championships.
In a tough match against Mark King he lost by the scoreline of 10-8.
This is a great result for King who has not been in the best of form this season, but will be a massive blow to Selby who has had the best season of his career winning both the Masters and the Welsh Open.

Welcome to the billiards forum pool players directory. We’re working hard to expand the pool players directory which will showcase both current and past greats of the game of billiards. There will be sections showcasing Hall of Fame inductees as well as sections showcasing the current champions of the sport.
The very first entry into the pool players directory was Jennifer Baretta. As you all know the billiards forum loves Jennifer Baretta. Since 2006 we’ve done numerous articles on Jennifer which have been showcased on various other websites such as coedmagazine.com. The next player in the pool players database with Steve Mizerak. The untimely passing of Mr. Mizerak was largely disappointing to the billiard world. We were ready to include the next pool player in the database after Jennifer and it occurred to us that no other player was more fitting for inclusion into our database then Steve.
Of course we couldn’t forget today’s great Mr. Efren Reyes. What then a few articles on Efren and they been well received by the readers. Unsure of how to proceed next we try to think of which player was deserving of the next entry into the database. Needless to say he came up with multiple ideas and were left with the decision of ranking them in order for inclusion. That’s when Gary, the billiards forum owner and executive editor decided that we would attempt to build, all at one time, a comprehensive pool players database that our users can update as time progresses. That way all deserving players would have their on the website, and the users would have a way to add or update information as they saw fit.
Thank you everyone for reading this article and we hope that you’ll stop back soon to visit our website and you are newly updated pool players database.
If you are a member of the billiards forum, you can now update your profile with details such as your favorite pool cue and pool table.
Of the 500 or so pool forum poster’s profiles we have, only about 100 have filled out the details in the profile
If you are a member, please go to your pool player profile and complete your details.
Greetings everyone,
You’ve probably noticed that we’ve cleaned up the blog quite a bit since your last visit. I wanted to take this opportunity to advise readers of a new feature we’ve added to the Billiards Forum site.
Our Pool Rules section now has almost 40 rule sets, that are now categorized into six main categories.
Please feel free to browse through and tell us what you think. More rules will be posted shortly. Our editors are preparing the articles for about 60 more billiard games.
This is a question we get asked a lot at the billiards forums. We thought we’d ask you.
Head over to the pool players forum and let us know.
Thanks for the input and continued support,
Gary
Yeah. So check this out. Its a VW bus converted in to a billiard table. Thats as unlikely a combination as I’d ever expect! It was spotted at a classic and unique car show in the USA. Feel free to check out the article and more images over at the billiards forum.
I know that this is just like the craziest thing, but hey, you have to admit, it is pretty freaking cool. If someone offered to sell me that for the right price I just might have to accept their offer!
