There was a 'Gypsy' Mike that came to Chicago every Summer to go to Cub games, sit in the bleachers and Bet on every pitch/inning!
He hung out at Bensingers before and after the games!
For 3 years, no matter what game I gave him in 3C, he couldn't win, including shoot with any CB on every shot!
Mike would only play 10 points or less!
We used to play on table #7, in front of the Bar, he liked all the sweaters pulling for him to finally win!
After a day of beatings, he finally said, "I'm not playing you again no matter what the game is"!
I told him, "When you come back tomorrow I'll have a game for you you can;t refuse"!
That night after the pool room closed, I practiced playing the Break '5' cushions, and many different positions 5 rails or more for 4 hrs!
When Mike came and heard the game I had for him, he couldn't wait to get to his Fav table!
I had to make All my shots '5 rails or more' to his 3,4 5 or more rail shots!
We played 3 point games, $200 a pop!
We always played 'Winner Breaks', I'd let him win a game here & there, but eventually the usual result!
