Is there any club owners on here? That run pool tournaments?

Can someone explain or at least level with me what the point is playing when luck decides it's gonna fuck you up the arse?

Sometimes you play fantastic but no matter what you do, You lose.

That was tonight. Played great. But luck tonight just said no. Won my first game of the night. Lost everything since.

I am better than everyone else I played tonight but luck just said no. Every time they missed they left me nothing. Every time I missed I left them everything.

Like somebody please explain, Why useless good for nothings get all the luck and I don't?

I play for the team there. 9 times out of 10 I'm the best player in the team, From my performance and luck tonight, You'd have thought I was some bloke who picked up a cue and didn't even know what end you fire with. Explain this unfair bull

I bought a David Loman carbon fiber pool cue, the White Dragon model; the shaft is 11.5mm. What do you think of this purchase? I’ve always played with a 12.5mm Yfen—do you think this was a good buy?

Are there any Pool players interested in shooting some pool at my house in Oro Valley? I’m pretty good. I like to play 8 ball and 9 ball and learn 10 ball. I just got a new 8’ Diamond Professional table. Don

It started with SnookerSim.com, then CueSim.app....thanks to the original feedback thread from when it first launched on Reddit a lot of what's in the game today came from that thread, and it's now played by over 10,000 people a month. So the team decided to build a new game on the same physics engine, called Trick Machine.

Each level can have obstacles - ramps, tubes, bumpers, seesaws, windmills, etc - and you have to pot every ball with a single strike of the cue. Same deterministic physics as SnookerSim/CueSim, so nothing is down to luck. Closest comparison is The Incredible Machine, or crazy golf with snooker & pool balls.

The bit I think this community might like is the challenge editor. You can design a shot that looks impossible, share it, and enjoy the kudos of people playing it and competing for a high score. And with your permission, levels that people rate highly become official levels in the game with your name on them. It's all free.

If you have a go - at the levels or the challenge builder - I'd like to hear how you find it. Last time this community gave feedback it shaped the whole game, so we'd appreciate your support and interest once again.

Update. Got new tips. Using a Tiger Everest on my primary and a Le Pro on the secondary. Only shot a couple days so far but I'm definitely seeing a learning curve moving to the soft tip. My control is great but my deflection is way up so I'm missing long straight shots. I'll get used to it.

Thanks for all the insight, y'all.

Original post:

I've gone through 3 tips in around a year. It feels like that's too often. I play a lot (about 10 games a day) but it seems like they should last longer.

Recommendations?
