Keith McCready playing in Philly 1 Pocket Championship

Heard it before- believe it when i see it. kinda like that book.

Don't believe there is a book? I'm sure you know how pool rooms are / were and sometimes you don't go telling stories lightly. I'm sure the delay is out of respect.
 
Was Keith ever known as a world-class one-pocket player? I know he played everything well and gambled at everything, but most of the stories I've heard about him were in games other than one-pocket.

Keith can catch a gear in 1 Pocket same as in 9 Ball. John Schmidt was learning 1 Hole from Jack Cooney. They played most afternoons at Hard Times. One Monday John came in and told Jack that he had thought that he had learned most rules of the game from their playing but he had played Keith the previous Friday night for 2K and Keith had broken every rule that John had learned from Jack! Keith was not a fan of ducking. lol
 
I was thinking the same thing

I watched Darren play at the Expo. I love one pocket. IMHO, it's the best spectator game.

While I didn't see Darren shoot any super creative shots or unleash any amazing shot making, his cue ball was maybe the tightest I've ever seen. Really impressive to watch. He consistently parked that cue ball within a half inch of perfect. And when he did have an opportunity to run some balls, he always got any that were getable.

After watching him play for a few days, I think he's a threat to beat anyone at one-pocket.

I am hosting this event and all the guys you have mention are all personal friends of mine and out of respect for me they are all coming together to support me and make this an amazing event. You will be surprised how good these guys all still play.

Sounds awesome. Thanks for putting it together and promoting it. Will there be plenty of spectator seating?
 
Stream

The stream is nice and clear with no interruptions. I actually like the table angle as it suits one pocket nicely. If you can't get anyone to stream your tournament this will do just fine.

Commentary would be a great addition particularly if you could get some of the players to do it between their matches.

Agree... Camera angle is just fine. And nice shooting.

Oh snap! Did an unknown creep into the pro stream scene and make the top 3?
 
For those who watched tonight. That is what the stream will look like streaming with my camera. I will also still be open for anyone else wanting to stream my event in July. Thanks everyone I hope you enjoyed.
 
I was just talking about Keith a couple of weeks ago. I know that if he and JAM came out ANYWHERE where there were poolplayers, Keith would draw a big crowd no matter what! It's great that he is confirmed to play. Looks like a great event. I played some at Classic while I was at the SBE two weeks ago. Nice room! :thumbup:
