Can we put an end to "ID this cue..." threads UNLESS the person proves that they already have the cue in their possession with a time/date/username page hand-written next to the cue?

I find it annoying that everyone, both on here and the billiard subreddit are trying to flip every cue they find. Don't get me wrong, I love historical and vintage cues, but these posts are non-stop, just so John Smith can use the wealth of knowledge here for profit.

Otherwise, if I'm being ridiculous, just tell me 🙂

"2-ball and out..." Meaning?

Melvin was the cat i saw play in Hutchinson at one of the big Cowboy Casino events. That dude took more practice strokes than anyone i ever saw. We counted over 25 on a few shots. I don't know if that was his deal or just a shark move. He didn't last long in the event, can't remember who beat him but that place was full of champions.

Yep. That’s him. Lol. 25-27 practice strokes every time.

He usually washed out of those kind of tournaments then his backer would put him in action.

He was playing a guy in Texas one time and just using a ton of English. The guy he was playing was very patronizing to him. Kept saying stuff like “I like you! You’re ok”. And how much English he used.

After goofing around for a while Melvin buried him and busted him. To the tune of 20k.

Melvin doesn’t talk at all when he’s playing. The guy quits and Melvin says “How do you like me now?” Lol.

This was before that phrase was popular. Word of that spread back in Denver and every pool player was saying that every time they made a shot or played a safe. It was crazy. Melvin would walk in a place and people would just yell it at him.

Here's the final rule. I think it is not legally binding in some jurisdictions, but I'm not a lawyer. ;)
  • All league players will not take any legal action against America’s Billiard League for any reason after filling out the sign up sheet and or competing in the league.

Not worth the 'paper' it is written on, correct.

Sue as necessary.

And be sure you have a valid copy of the League's liability insurance certificate.🙄

The escrow agents follow the instructions/contract between the parties and the escrow agreement between the agent and the parties -- any conflicts are resolved prior to escrow beginning. Like all things in life, you pay for what you get. The problem area is the low cost cue. The reputation and integrity of the agent and the quality of the written agreements are the keys.

The more trips one makes around the block, the clearer the route becomes.
