My first Gold Crown refurbish

Nice find! Reminds me of my journey.
Thanks...I have been inspired in part by yours! By the way, I noticed that you refurbished yours white... My wife said that although it looks great, she doesn't think it would match the vision for our room. I am thinking about semi-gloss black wood with matte black rails and nickel plated castings (or silver paint for the feet).

it's good to be the run-out King

Last night was the 8-ball league payout, my team came in first again this session to a good natured (I think) round of boos.
I was crowned the King of break and runs with 10.
Today I played one pocket with my normal opponent and beat him 6 straight games while occasionally mentioning how good it was to be the king.
He got rather upset and quit, it was a lot of fun for me, him not so much.

As Mel said, it's good to be king!

Cell phone use while playing pool

Diminished interest in completing the set with 2 people I play with. One is constantly checking his phone or watching a game. I start taking flyers or simply say I'm tired and stop playing. Other is a relative. I take out my phone wait until tells me it's my turn... No reason for a phone to be out...
other than that, it is also plainly disrespectful to your opponent, synonymous to saying I don't give a rat's ass about you or you are not worth my time or focusing on unless it's only my turn and only time to shoot. on the otherhand, I like it better compared to someone standing infront of you on every shot.
