Is removing your glove a shark move?

I had a moment yesterday and thought WTF is this goof doing. First off I waited 10-15 min after our match was called for him to show up then the 1st game he misses a shot and scratches. I get the CB and looking at the pattern for a second and he's pulling balls out of the pocket on the next table to practice. I sat on the stool by our table and he looked at me like WTF am I doing. I said I'm waiting for you to stop being disrespectful and get back here. My blood was boiling and I was so pissed off I let the goof get to me and it cost me the match after doing all the work and missing two 9"s for the win

He also has a US Open, Hanoi Open, and World Blackball champion. I personally think he’s kind of a borderline pick but those titles plus the Mosconi Cup showmanship/performances and the straight pool record some people value will end up getting him in.

If he doesn't deserve it, nobody does. Who has entertained us more over the last 10 years than him, Filler, Fedor and Shane?

I don't give a shit about FSR or Yapp, boring to watch.

He will be a hall of famer in my opinion forever

Is removing your glove a shark move?

When I didn't want to take my good playing cue to the bar , I'd take my sneaky Pete cue which was 6" over length and I used some 2" PVC pipe with a cap on one end and a clean out adapter on the other .
I always caught crap for it until they seen just how well I played with that cue .

So in some cases it can be a strange cue case too

Great Pool Room Stories

Rusty in Montana
I understand that . At the Empire was where Lance Saunders , Jerry and Paul Schmito hung out and played quite often .
There could have been another fella named Norm also ? Another fella named George who had a foo man chew that reached down to his belt .

Then there was Lance's big brother Billy who was always either writing a book on pool playing or making a video on the same .
He talked me into shooting some shots so he could film them as he thought I had a reasonable stroke .

Darn right I was trying to interject a it of humor , as misguided as it may of been .
Cabin fever was kicking in I guess as it's still snowing out.

That's cool. I think a fair point to be made is that anything or any device can be used to shark somebody else. It's the statement a player makes when he performs a particular action that has intentions of distracting his opponent. Yes it could be an oxygen machine, it could be a glove, it could be disassembling your stick, and anything else that will distract your opponent.

Some rich AZ billiards fan can sure spare a million to set up a training fund for a bunch of talents? Grow them now.

I find it peculiar that pool is so ingrained in USA culture but no angel investor to be found? Joe Rogan?

That little thinking speaks volumes about what pool is.
