I Play. I'm pretty good, but not good enough to beat a real shark-type who plays 7 days a week. I'm good for a guy who hardly plays, i can make shots, i have to work on my positioning.

pool is similar to golf. the more you play, the better you are. ball speed is what kills most of us bar shooters compared to the pros.

Re: anyone play pool?

I was ranked 9th in Michigan in the late 90's. I'm now just a dry(don't drink) hustler.

Jeff, next eog bash, you and I for 20 a ball in 9 ball.

If it's too much back and forth, maybe we can work out a race to 50 for something a little more meaningful. we'll keep it fun though. i don't want to take all the money you make on bases!~ 91023i2ndw;l

Born and raised on a snooker table, so 8 and 9 ball is very simple. English and playing the hook will make any good pool player look like a rookie in a hurry. In Ontario I won the south Ontario regional in snooker in 95, and 98'. Pool is just a natural sport.

Re: anyone play pool?

do you realize how many champions are from michigan?

i agree snooker will make you a straight shooter but you also need a killer break to play with the big boys in 9 ball

bad thing about pool is no money in at all


is this a joke?

seriously, if you hit the right pool room or bar on the right night, there is plenty of money in pool.

you wouldnt believe the number of idiots out drinking on friday nights with their paycheck in their pockets.

the international pool tour looked promising for getting big money tourneys going, but the offshore gambling legislation made their big sponsors like partypoker pull out. ipt is still going, but not as big now. maybe they will get big in the future.

no, i've never been to louisville. don't they make baseball bats there or something? :LMAO

yeah the IPT gave lots of players false hope

derby city classic is the biggest pool event in the united states for a gambler i would figure a seasoned player like yourself would go and get all the action you could handle? from constant $20-$100 ring games and winner keep table to bet what you can afford to lose gaming up with someone 10ball,9ball,8ball,one hole,banks what ever your heart desires

im sure apple and nedrow have won a ton of cash at the derby LOL!

worst thing that happend in pool IMO is pool leagues

APA

BCA

you get a 1000 pool players to play in these leagues but 999 of them are scared of their own shadow and wouldnt bet you $20 if it got dark

i stay in the md, va, pa areas for pool.

as far as the leagues and gambling go, not sure about other areas but in the areas i shoot, i disagree with you on the lack of gambling. i would say a high percentage of the higher skill level players are more than willing to play for a few bucks. especially if they beat you in your match that night. :LMAO
