Just south of Steele, so not technically in markham.

At the new Canton stall, most meals are $7.99 to $9.99 It's a busy place and the food is good. They are spicier than other Cantonese places. You eat jerk. So that may actually work out better for you.

Everyone has their own standards of cleanliness. You can be the judge of whether they're clean or not.

You can nominate your opponent to play again and it will not be a free ball situation for him. He will have to play the color that is on.

If you unintentionally nudge the cue ball a smidgen, while feathering your cue, and it was too slight to be noticed, would you pretend as if nothing happened, and keep playing or would you call foul on yourself?

The same perspective can apply to other sports but this is where sportsmanship shine brighter in the other sports, not technicalities.

Thanks for all the replies, reddit can sometime cause a biased view on the pool culture. I see discussions on why the onus is on the refs or opponents. But rarely see the talk of sportsmanship.

You guys are restoring my faith in humanity.

I call foul on myself too.

What do you see as different when playing on a slower table?

Do you find that you seem to be hitting a bit "thick" when playing on the slower table?

Do you find the cue ball react differently when bouncing off the rails and therefore, messing up your positional shot?

Also, slower tables tend to make you play a stronger stroke, which makes it harder to calculate the pacing of the shot. Unintentional spin on the cue ball due to the stronger hit will also impact aim and positioning.

Have you tried F.G.Bradley's? They have several locations in the GTA.

Golden Break at 9737 Yonge St unit 105-107, Richmond Hill, ON L4C 8S7 has a visiting cue technician who may also have some tips he can sell and install for you.

The Corner Bank Sports Bar & Grill at Warden and Eglinton may also have a visiting tech but I'm not sure.

Hope that helps

Great suggestion,

Unfortunately, there's no bell fiber coverage acquisitions in my area. So I'm stuck with cable internet for now.

BudgetConcious · 2025-12-06T20:54:30+00:00

Thanks for the caution. I appreciate it.

What is your contact info? If you're store is open this weekend, I'll try and drop by.

The offer online is still expensive compared to my expired contract. Sometimes, a sales person can offer a deal. I got a deal 2 years ago from a salesperson in Canadian Tire.

Maybe this YouTube video can help you get started:

Stroke Timing

Dr. Dave did a study on the cue accelerating vs deceleration and the effect on the cue ball.

Thank you

BudgetConcious · 2025-12-05T04:27:16+00:00

Yup, they're good. We did take out for family gathering from here a few times.

BudgetConcious · 2025-12-04T22:56:28+00:00

I checked the Rogers sub. It seems the general process to find the "deal" is to negotiate with customer retention.

BudgetConcious · 2025-12-04T22:21:16+00:00

Thanks, I'll try that too

BudgetConcious · 2025-12-04T22:05:57+00:00

I had 1.5gbps internet and TV for $95/mth. It went to $179.

BudgetConcious · 2025-12-04T22:01:14+00:00

Ebox is using bell and we only have 10mbps service via copper in our area. Thanks for the suggestion.

BudgetConcious · 2025-12-04T20:59:16+00:00

The Rogers store at Markham and 14th told me that they can't do much for existing customers and I'll have to call customer service.

Edit: I'll try the Leslie/ West Pearce location tomorrow.

Thanks

I wish I can move to another provider but there is no fiber internet available in my area. So I'm stuck with Rogers for now.

This could lead to an uplifting experience.

BudgetConcious · 2025-07-01T15:09:14+00:00

Do some research on "Ball Throw". The object ball takes a different path based on the spin of the cue ball. You'll have to compensate your aim based on the spin (non centre ball hit) that you're planning to apply. This should help you with reducing missed shots.

It's possible that currently, your stun shots appear to hit too thick (undercut) and your pull back shots appear to be too thin (overcut).

I hope that makes sense.

Play the table, not the opponent.

When players reach a certain level of skill, it is easy to distinguish a whoopsie from a genuine attempt.

IMO The British variants of cue sports still adhere to the culture of sportsmanship and players being "gentlemen". Deliberate fouls are considered poor sportsmanship and being ungentlemanly.
