St. Louis Louie vs. Archer 1990

they kept different hours. to do a 10 am round most gamblers would have to stay up all night.
The tournament's back then were worth so little. Look up the prize money at Johnston City you think those guys were there for the prize money? In fact the US Open straight pool tournament in the seventies had first prize of like $4,000. Meantime in Miami guys like Mike Corella are playing $300. $500. 9 ball.

St. Louis Louie vs. Archer 1990

There were some very strong players who would have done quite well in tournament play but for whatever reasons they chose not to. And back then there was a subtle dislike by gamblers and road dawgs for tourney players and vice versa.
Perhaps subtle is the wrong word.😂
I knew so many of those players back then that gambled and travel hustling pool on the road and many had real talent but could care less. They reached the level that suited their needs and they weren't putting in 8 hours a day on the table to try and be the world's best or break any records.
