Are you aware that Phil passed?

Wonder no more about me. These are from last month at a big tournament in Florida:

That was a great tournament. Dom and his guys did a great job.

I was on the rail most of the time. I probably saw you play at some point.

I didn't have anywhere near the balls for that one…!





Me, also in a tournament last month. One that cost me about $900 less than yours to get into though!

And using a Keilwood shaft I see.

One of Richard Hsu's.

I got it from a member here about this time last year.

I have to admit, I really like it.

Never tried one. Seems intriguing.

I hadn't either.

I had tried low deflection shafts and they simply didn't work for me. I've been hitting standard deflection shafts for just too damn long and really struggled to adjust. And I especially hate the look/feel of carbon fiber, so…

I decided to try the Kielwood just for the hell of it. Maybe just a little less deflection than my normal maple shaft, maybe not. But I like the look and the feel and seem to play pretty well with it.

One of these days I need to take it over to Chris Nitti and have him match the rings on my cue...

The guy shooting pool in my avatar was my grandfather and the other guy you can see was my father. The picture was taken about 70 years ago. Someone who is interested should be able to use AI with those images to figure out what I look lIke.

Very cool!

One of these is me.

All I see is Heine.

 

[Coos Cues]

Not really what you're asking, but there is a regular poster that sounds very wise and experienced. I reckoned he was really good. Then I came across a video of him playing and was surprised by the very mediocre play. Not going to name and shame.

There is no reason to do so unless of course they are a steadfast of the aiming forum.

In this case it's not only ok to name them but practically obligatory.

This is disappointing. I always thought you and Cookieman Dave Stem were the same person with different ID's

Maybe a brother from another mother?

 

[Willowbrook Wolfy]

I don’t know, but I probably look better than I play. Which ain’t saying much. I picture a few fat guys with beards and a few guys that haven’t been laid in a while mostly though

I got a free ride to that one. I won a "qualifier" that paid my $1300 entry ($1K + 2 side pots) and $700 cash for travel.
Won my first match, and the the kid who got second (Carlos Jinez) got me second round. Won my third and they stuck me on the tv table for my 4th and I dogged it. It was a great experience though, and I had a great time. That venue was amazing.

 

[j2pac]

Why are you attacking me?

 

[DeadStick]

and a few guys that haven’t been laid in a while

Whaddya got against us married guys?

Very cool.

My home room, I live about a mile from there. You're right, a great place. Good food, good equipment, and good people. You really can't ask for anything more than that.

You could easily pass for William Shatner's younger brother.
