Yeah, I forgot about the PoolSleuth persona. Oh yeah, Koop, Hemicudas, Fred Agnir, Rackemsucker, Timberly, are the ones I saw off the top of my head. Many, many others as well.

I just went back in time and it looks like all the drama has been cleaned up. I don't remember much.

Heck, I hate the usual innings in baseball. :)

I remember a friend backed a guy when we were first playing pool. The guy obviously dumped him. It was really ugly. It was for $20. My friend just told him, "Hey, that was a bargain, I got to see your character for only $20. A lot of people value their integrity more than that."

Exactly what I was going to post.

Once I beat a manager of a bar a game of 8b. There were two signs. One said “no last pocket 8-ball.” The other said “no gambling.” So we gamble at 8b. Not too much this was in the 80s. I make the las of my set and go to shoot the 8 ball and he says “last pocket.” Luckily it was bankable...

I don’t even think players should be prohibited to bet on their own matches or against or for their teammates. When I played leagues it was always fun to bet a $20 on your match to make it interesting.

I vote for blessing.

When I was 18 my sister (16) and I did a landscaping job inside Cabrini Green. Just the two of us and a truck. It was scary and people gathered around to watch us work but nobody tried anything. We were lucky. This was 1986.

Now he's lil brisket.
