This was my player for a few years and I believe it to be East Indian Rosewood and not cocobolo. I could be wrong - I bought it from the original owner and that’s what I was told.

Monster player at any rate

I left every time some SLOW surveyor was playing.

If I want to watch someone walking around and looking at tables all day, I will go to Golden Corral and watch the buffet crowd.

Well maybe if you need to win so you could eat you would take the game a little more serious. I love playing guys like you.. makes me play even slower and watch you lose your mind.

I was the pool demo guy at a corporate event. I shared the room with a tarot card reader. About half of the rubber on one end rail was detached.

I have more questions.

Finding a tarot card reader seems straight forward. How does a corporate event planner find a pool demo guy? I am curious about the experience. Were you there to encourage games or what sort of role did they have in mind? How did the tarot card reader get sequestered to the pool table?

views is just total views, reach is number of individuals who saw it at least once and interactions is comments/saves/shares etc. Basically its a stream's scorecard. The 'hours' is how much, timewise, was watched. A lot of people just looked in an left. Still very good for pool, there's SO much sports on that getting this many eyes is good.

I like how he says he likes craftsmanship. Didn’t he come around on watches? I don’t watch a ton of his stuff but didn’t he used to be skeptical of luxury watches then came around to them?

Yeah that’s whats great about joe though. He doesn’t have a problem changing his mind when he gets information and realized he was wrong.
I like how serious he takes the game. You can tell he loves the game.

"I think it's a cocobolo..." imagine owning something that costs thousands, that you supposedly use as your main player, and knowing jack about it...

imagine being this small minded that you can’t imagine somone who works an insane amount of hours can’t remember the exact detail of every one of the 1000 cues he owns lol it must suck to be you to be so angry and negative about things all the time. Now I remember why I have you on ignore.

Any body know Rodney Curry

I heard some owners say they bought a job. Is it a business with employees running it? Do the owner(s) have to be there all of the time? Can good money be made? Buying a building or renting? One day the rent goes out of proportion and then what. Definitely think about it.

The pool hall I used to hang out at had the owner (then his son) there all the time, practically.
These days almost no one sells their commercial real estate properties, at least not where I live. It’s lease, lease, lease.
Finding the best lease agreement one can is a very important key.
