    Great video as always Mick. As for the stuffy waistcoat and long sleeved shirt, it's something I have never agreed with in pool sports. Sadly stuck in the dark ages, snooker and some 8 ball events are probably exclusive in that the dress code acts as a hindrance to best performance.

    The chap you played at 1000ft was Wang Peng's cousin. He was going to rub the table like Wang did against an English guy some years ago. He knew it wouldn't work on that table though. Great video of life in China for a pool player

    Cheers for the video Mick. With the tanle on the mountain top being as good as the Dog and Gun and it bringing your game down to a more human level, does that mean if I or any other player who play at a Dog and Gun or equivalent played on the Ultimate Pool tables it would bring our game up by as much. I know the answer is no 😂

    the best experiences are in china as always in joy events, thank you very much for this videovlog I enjoyed watching the video, could you explain to me how the 9ball competition works? I understood the scoring system more or less but I would like to know all the rules about how matches for money work. That is my question. I hope you can solve it for me and keep uploading content to TH-cam, I really like your videos!!
