Yet another thing we have in common Steve. I grew up on a pool table. Shot several hours a day for probably 15-20 yrs. Funded many bad habits in college shooting pool. Marriage and children slowed the program then interest slowly drifted away . haven't shot in years now.
The best player I ever went up against was back in my heli skiing days in British Columbia. I thought I was good. Guy cleaned my clock. Humbling.

If you ever had it all on the line, and you could either just swing away, or play a jam up safe, and trap the guy, what would you do?
Playing for funsies, isn't the same as playing for cash.
Anyone in the Longview area wants to match up, you have $100 a game, 1 pocket action all night, or we can play some $300 or $400 sets of whatever. All 9ft action, no boxes.

Originally posted by bullhead44 View PostPlayed almost every day growing up. My older brother used play for big money and he wanted me to play so he could practice. It helped me make a good chunk of money while in college. Lots of drunk cowboys in stephenville who could ride better than shoot pool! Dont like to play much any more since I can see the shots in my head, but the ball never seems to what it is supposed to.

Im not into the one pocket or 9ft action but if you wanna drive to Lufkin and play on some perfect Diamond pro/am bar tables, Im your huckleberry. Spot me three on a race to ten? after all, Im a beginner again..
