apocalypse Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 I still have a very big carrom board at my place in India. Mostly frndz use to come and we used to play for long hours Few of frnds here in US thought of buying a carrom board from an Indian store but it was not so good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 You kidding me? Carrom is BIGGGGG in East India and it is almost as popular as football in Bengal, and trust me that is saying something! I loved carrom. Right from the school days used to play atleast a game or two everyday. Then in college carrom and table tennis were the two indoor games we almost always indulged in, also cards. I am one of those who dont bother for Queen much unless you need it to win the game. Good times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veer Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 ohh yeahh i had a small carrom board when i was young.. pretty roughed and all... but then we bought the largest size .. soo damn smooth.. you know when ''cookdi'' just ''glides'' from one end to another and then does that ''tooduk'' sound after getting in the hole.. i lived in mumbai chawls.. so that was the best time-pass game.. hahah.. goood days..

yoda Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 I'll kick anyone's hand (non-tharika word substituted) in carrom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffee_rules Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 I've won some local community, college level carrom tournaments. Now, I have developed a serous case of 'yips', I can't release the striker...without moving back and forth. :haha: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
