This kind of explains the slump Fedor was going through. He's had a lot on his mind. Wishing them both the best moving forward.

Ha Ha, I don't think that way. Just glad to have all the good memories and friends I made there.

I bought a Diamond Pro after it had been used in a tournament in Vegas. It was a new table, and used only that one week. I had to wait for Glen to come out to the West Coast to bring it to my home and install. He let me know it would be a few months before he headed out that way, since he had...

In my poolroom in Bakersfield, we got so busy on the weekends that people would play pool on one of my three snooker tables rather than wait for a pool table. The waiting list was usually ten or twelve names long. And we had 22 pool tables. Yes, business was good !

I'm not afraid of them, just prefer to avoid them if possible. Why put yourself in a bad spot if you don't have to?

Truman was never afraid to speak his mind, to ANYBODY!

Sad to hear this news. I've known Truman forever. He was long considered one of the best Bank Pool players in the country. All you had to say was Truman and they knew who you were talking about. I loved watching him play, just got down and made those banks with no fanfare or celebrating. He let...

It ain't sexy when bullets are flying. Been there, seen that, everyone's ducking for cover.

It ain't the guns stopping me. It's the enemy at their doorstep, always looking for ways to kill jews. Too much hatred over there. We've got enough right here now. One more thing, the fallacy in your above statement. If there is no chance of that happening, why are they all strapped up? Is it...

I don't know about you, but if I go into a place where I see people carrying weapons like this I'm heading for the exit. Why do I want to hang around anywhere where there may be a shootout. Stray bullets kill! I understand the threat the people of Israel face every day, but I won't be visiting...

Jonas Magpantay wins the "It's A Small World" Ten Ball Cup! Only 100K for the winner. More than all but one of the other "World Championships!"

She wasn't there on vacation!

Jonas is just one more in a long, long line of Filipino pool playing clones, who all seem to have the same style, same game and keep on getting the same results. Win, win, win, like they've been doing for the last thirty years, dominating pool wherever they go. They are not flashy players and...

100% agree with you. This guy has all the ingredients of a champion. I like the way he studied Shane when he was shooting, trying to see what it was that made Shane so great. Moritz was paying close attention. IMO Moritz will be a world champion one day and it may even be this week. He has that...

Niels is old school! Nice to see him back in stroke. A harder competitor you won't find. He won't go down easy from here.
