I just didn't bet on the rail. I knew guys who would win or lose depending on which way made the players the most money so they would decide who won on the fly depending on which way the money went down.

Dumping like this has been around forever. Ronnie vs. Bucktooth was done successfully several times, for big money. They put on a good show.

In my day it can get you hurt..... Bad! An apology won't suffice. All it takes is one guy who decides to get even. That's the risk dumpers take.

Dumping is playing a person or people for fools. I know of people being killed for little more than pocket change. Not the money but the insult. Someone needs to carefully weigh the risks before any form of cheating gambling. It doesn't matter how important the cheater thinks the bet is, the question is how important the person you are cheating considers the cheat. Since it involves money and honor, the cash value can be almost nothing.

My experience, probably five times the people thought they were dumped than were really dumped. One reason I never played with a backer. I wasn't going to dump anyone, that didn't mean they wouldn't think they were dumped.

There's actually a mathematical formula for determining the correct number of cues for you,..

n+1=x

Where n is your current number of cues and x is your ideal number.

Thanks for the pics

Well depends on your view of cues. I know many who own one cue - they view it like someone might view owning an iron for clothes- you only need one to do the job.
Some players, like some golfers, own multiples bc they seek out something perceived to do the job better than what they are currently using.
Some people fall into a “ collector” category - either as a true hobby or as a sort of addiction- those people always own multiple cues and many have had a 100 or more pass through their hands- I fall into that category regarding cues- sometimes recognizing that my hobby can sometimes morph into addiction/ but always enjoyable nonetheless.

Any more than 200 is pushing it.
