It would be awesome if he'd run 100. Since alot of people around here don't even know what 14.1 is.
Update on the Des Moines pool scene
- Thread starter mikeyfrost
- Start date
Earl puts on a good show. He strokes that ball like few others. I met John last night....very nice guy. He has quite a few tricks up his sleeve as to how he runs so many balls. Very interesting guy.
If the Mother-in-law is OK, I'll be there.

Are they still playing the 10-ball tournament tonight? maybe I can kill 3 birds with one stone.
Wes says yes.
Sounds good. Someone bake me a cake with a file in it.
I'm in the same boat (or cell), so if you find a good baker let me know. :wink:
Jason and John are going to be playing at 1:30 - 2:00 again.
Today John said something to the effect of.
So Jason, you own a oil company ? Jason says yes. John says, So you have lots of money i can win huh ?
Lol, this cat is pretty funny. See some of you there.

They are acting like "men" that are "married w/ children" that would like to STAY "married w/ children"!
And go easy on Matt, we finally pushed him over the edge to get on the sauce! Who knows what he will do now!
I'm still loaded at 8 am... with disgust. Played good until got to Wes.
Earl and John were cool. I think Mikey might have some sort of man crush on those guys. He was giddy as a school girl....
Wasnt a big crowd but an intimate setting was nice and I played a scotch match with John for my partner. Not so bad. LOL He fouled once, but we got a reprieve and I made a tough cut on the 9 from awkward position.
Had to leave after tournament -- so missed any good action that happened late, if any.
It was nice of big dogs to have those guys stop in ($) and I think that it's good for these things to keep happening. As usual, IMO they are their own worst enemy, as Richardson did more advertising than I saw elsewhere. Did hear one radio commercial the day of.... ah well. Que Sera Sera.
Sorry i didnt' get to the poker game -- limited time and resources. Although, typically, I coulda showed up there, and still made the tournament and exhibition. LOL Poker is not my game.

Thanks for the compliments John. Great to hear good things from good people such as yourself.
As for mikey being a good dude, well that is still under review!!
oke:A ton of gamble they do have though!
So, did you end up owning any stock in the Oil company before you left? :wink2:
Heading to Dog's today for the 9ball year end tournament. Also to play some APA. Hope the 9ball starts at noon.
Any recaps on the EOY 9 ball tournament? Any good pairings? I always like to see the best going head to head.
Thanks
It's 2010, these things are called bromances. You just wouldn't understand.
Good luck on the rest of the trip JS, tell the Pearl we all "feel" him. Have fun in the Midwest.
