Buddy Hall was the best pool player of all time. There was one year when He won like 15 major tournaments in a row. And when it came to gambling He beat everyone that tried him 10
Ahead for 20K including Efren Reyes . I’ve seen them all play but when I saw him in person in his prime. It was just a different experience. He was a runout machine. RIP Rifleman

Thank you for being a member for almost a year and bringing that earth shattering email from a 2 year old thread. No one on this forum has heard of this Buddy Hill.

all three played about the same. so who was on that day or on his own table would tend to win.

the person who played shoot out the best was eddie taylor by far. but he was older than those guys and not quite as good at pocketing as them.

Now all Pro Pool Player need do is start looking out for selves, Streamer are making Money off their Effort.

Pro Player need to say No Streaming unless I get paid. As Streamer are not contributing to Prize Money say act DCC.

Has Accustoms ever paid money to Pool Player they sell matches of playing.

this old school mentality.
Hand shakes hand
No one can afford paying player for streaming
But they do get coverage, the do get recognition and they can use it as leverage for self branding.
If no one knows who is Fedor Gorst, then no one will buy Fedor's chalk / case / cloths, shafts etc. Same for Alex Pagulayan for example and others.
Players like Yapp are really missing a lot of money just laying on the floor by not branding them selves properly.
A lot of players setup their own streams and start their own YouTube channels and it's all for free as there is a bigger picture.
We used to pay good money for Pool lessons videos, now everything is for free, as yet again, there isa bigger picture.

How 'bout none of the dumb gimicky high run nonsense and just stage an actual world class straight pool event. No International this year so there is another hole there.

Well yeah but my interest lies in the evolution of quality. There will always be competition but left to it's own vices, it will always remain __ only good enough to win.

Thanks for all the kind words! Lou had some great ideas that got this design moving in the right direction. It was an honor to be a part of this celebration!

This case challenged us in a couple different ways and we were very satisfied with the results. In particular, we love the way this alligator inside the lid compliments the stone work design.

Pool is in the best place it’s ever been, for eyeballs, imo, because the young generation watch everything today on YouTube. Major network and broadcast tv is irrelevant.
