I feel you. The window is closed anyway now, and it may not open back up. Just gonna focus on getting back in stroke. Maybe figure out this one hole game in my spare time. I know this state has some champions but then again so does every state. Youre talking about the exceptions and in my opinion they don't make up the norm. These guys can walk into almost any pool room in America and give up weight. I'm just talking about the general scene. They do take league and tourneys seriously so that might be the way to go. Eitherway I would never stand up and bark at everyone in the house because thats a no win situation. Even if you win you kill what little action was left cuz only the baddest guy is gonna stand up. I'll give the DM it's fair shake though cuz there are some really good people here. Anyways I have a woman that Ive been with a while, I was just pointing out something with that comment.
Now you get it. Shoot 20 at 200 cant stand that. Thats one of the big problems I have. I see people get stuck up and even I wanna puke. I did meet a guy from Ames last night with some gamble in him. He was playin a friend of mine, getting the worst of it, and betting 20/game. He did quit stuck 5 games but he said that before he started betting. Said he needed the last 20 for gas. Now that action isnt big however it was good action cuz he did what he said he was. Unlike the people that say you can win a lot of money and quit a 1 set loser yet if they win and someone quits them they start throwin out the Nit word. Hilarious if you ask me.
If you are heading into the QC area. Send me a PM on here. I will gladly shoot ya and see what ya got. I'm not rich by any means. But I will play some. I love shooting pool and love the challenges it presents. Just let me know man. later
Only stipulation is whoever takes down the cash pays for the steak dinner later that night...ill let ya know if I ever pass through.
Just fyi, that is what "airbarrell" is known for. From what i heard, he did it at an apa event a few weeks ago.
I don't know of anyone else that isn't a stand up person in the Des Moines area.
You could eat ice cream every day of your life and love it and one day someone told you they made the chocolate ice cream out of shit and you would never eat ice cream again, no matter what flavor.
I owe you a beer sir.

I've got some ocean front property in Montana for sale too buddy jk, check your PM. That's what's going down.
Mike I have been very nice in my posts in this thread . I don't understand why you felt the need to insult me ? What did I say that made you think I wanted to play $1 a head sets ? I feel that was very rude and uncalled for .

That definitely was not for you. Sorry if I quoted the wrong comment but you were definitely more than a gentleman in all this. Once again my fault brother wasn't for you at all. It was probably for your buddy who shot me some red rep, 1 red and 4 or 5 greens isnt too bad. I wonder how many other misquotes I did. Take care bro.
Find a BYOB strip joint, any of them have this in common. Bring 2 cases with you and roll totally solo. Believe me the Bi Chicks will find you, even if its only for your beer. You win
Ok bro. no prob. I think I have done that before :grin-square:
Hope to see ya around and good luck in Waterloo this weekend !
Thanks ... Larry
Appreciate it. I'm not even bringing cues with me. Just going to watch and learn. I'll be the quietest guy in the building.
Wouldn't know......but have seen a couple of good things come out of a jersey :wink:
I have never seen Whitey doing 3 card monty. But if you want to gamble, as you stated, he has more gamble in his left arm than you have in your entire body.
Sounds like his name should be Casino then. Good for Whitey though, hope he stays at it but like I said the window has closed already here. Only gamble with my east coast crew.
