you know them when you meet them.... They may have just started playing or they may have been playing for 50 years... But you recognize they are on the same journey you are on... Mastering this game can take a lifetime for many of us... Life gets in the way and we drop the game to pursue family and fortune but those of us on the journey never quite forget the sound of a great break or the solace afforded by a quiet room with nothing but us, our cue and the balls...We always find the way back... I have known players who could not run 4 balls but pool was in their blood and likely was going to be until the day ST Pete checked them onto table 12 in the sky.....
