Island Drive said:Hey, John, what was the guys name at the LA room that HB played out of? He always wore a hat, had a large stomach, nice guy, he was either a backer or stake horse or a bouncer? Not sure if he owned the room or managed it, also what was that pool rooms name?

We always referred it to the place at sixth and Western. Lou has lately been seen at Baker's Billiards in Fontana. Quite a nice guy.jay helfert said:That was the House Of Billiards on 6th St. We always used to just call it 6th St.
The man you are referring to is Lou! He was the manager and bouncer as well if that was required.

Ron Conley said:I played a 24 hour session in the mid 70's someplace in Orange County with that cue. I was getting 8-7 playing one handed one pocket from Tommy Martin aka Fat Tommy. Won a thousand, met Brian the next day at 6th and Western think I gave him a $100. One of the very few times I got the best of Tommy. Hope that doesn't hurt the value of the cue. By the way Lou is the nuts.

jrhendy said:Tommy used to play one handed pretty sporty, so you could play. I used to play some one handed one pocket with Scrawny Ronnie and others in Bellflower at the Billiard Palace in the 70's. I never played Tommy, can't remember why, just never came up.
My neighbors brother knows Tommy well and told me last spring that Tommy was doing well and to say hello. You are right about Lou. He always treated me right. John Henderson
