I'm so thrilled to be hosting this edition! I can't believe we're only a couple months away from our two year anniversary. I hope everyone out there has been enjoying your summer.

I love the variety of submissions we got this month!

This is the second edition of PoolSynergy. a monthly collection of the best writing in pool. In this edition, we are treated by nine very different articles based on this month's theme: Billiard Tales, a memorable pool story that made you a 'better' player
