    Thank you Tom,I just ask it after I saw your picture in your profile.First I didin't read your bio but now I've read it. Tom Archer wrote: Do you mean billiards as in 3C or are you asking generically (as in pocket billiards)? Generally,Because I don't know anything about billiard and don't know what 3C is. Well good luck in your favorite game and also in WRITING BOOKS. :) Mazy "The more I search, the more my need For you, The more I bless, the more I bleed For you."The Outlaw Torn-Metallica

There are many variations of billiards, the most common being three cushion (3C). It's played with only three balls. You must with the cue ball strike another ball, bank off three rails (cushions) and then hit the other object ball. It's a game for people that are extremely good at angles, speed control, banking and english (spin). By the way, when you hear someone refer to "pocket billiards" they are talking about what most people now call pool and some game played on a table with pockets (such as 14.1, 8-ball, 9-ball, etc.) Mazdak wrote: Well good luck in your favorite game and also in WRITING BOOKS Thanks mate!

      While I think Argentina will win, I forgot to mention that I'd REALLY like the US or Turkey to win as I'm a citizen of both countries. However, that's not going to happen since neither is strong enough. Therefore, I'll pull for the next best thing with an African team (simply because they're all underdogs but at least have decent teams and a small chance.)

                    Because you can drastically alter the ball's path off the rail with english. (Note that I'm also lumping english with draw and follow although technically the latter two are not considered to be english.)

                      I was born in Izmir, Turkey to a Turkish mom and my dad is an American soldier. Therefore, I have dual-citizenship. Cheers, Tom Archer Author - Inside C#, Visual C++.NET Bible Please remember to keep this for tax purposes.
