terryansimon Posted January 27, 2004 Author Share Posted January 27, 2004 I prefer pool. especially 9 ball. faster game as compared to snooker. I guess its a matter of individual preference. as for mambo snooker/pool. lets just say that they have inflated prices. I wouldn't blame them due to the location *the one in town* but they quoted me a cue glove for $12 when I bought it at pool junction for $9.90. I believe I could have gotten it cheaper somewhere but what the heck. oh well. will get my scorpion cue soon. just see when. probably after I come back from Thailand.
