I love the tournament atmosphere I like being at tournaments with all the games to sweat. I am not good enough to play in them but that does not matter. I love to watch the pros, but you don't have to watch pros to see good matches. That's what I love about pool.

criticism toward the charitable...... as stated in my second post on this thread, the owner wished to ask for offers which should have ended the criticism of how I posted these. it was not my choice. I am trying to help someone. she was offered $250/set but the man who offered left her high and...

price $500 for both mint unused sets.

Efren Reyes' stroke and WHY.... When at Shooters/ Olathe Kansas, a killer action room in the middle of the country, the only table available was next to the table where Reyes was practicing so I grabbed it. I didn't even practice or play, just paid table time to study his stroke. He was...
