    Friendly Pool Halls in Paris?

    I travel all over the world and have zero troubles. I’m in the UK right now, was in China 2 weeks ago. Middle East next week. Pool brings people together, after 3 days in any pool room your a regular. Jay Helfert said that once here years ago. He’s absolutely correct.

    What so great about Westinghouse Micarta?

    It was the best micarta way back in the day compared to others. It got expensive when they stopped making it. Like anything (cortland linen comes to mind)

    Johnny Archer vs. Savannah Easton

    Big Phil was good action. He’d make a game. Canadian Wayne was just too strong for me to mess with. I offered to play 1P Rich 9B banks my scratches don’t count for $10/rack on the front table many times. His table. I was a dog in that game for sure. He’d never play me. Danny Shades was the...

    Johnny Archer vs. Savannah Easton

    Scattered every time. It wasn’t a scam. Their coin, their flip, I offered to pay after every flip. No strings. No takers How on earth can you get a good game in that joint?

    Johnny Archer vs. Savannah Easton

    It was truly amazing. I offered that action several times there over the course of a few months/ I’ll bet $25 to your $20. Wasn’t high rolling anyone Hell that’s 5/4 even worse for me! Zero takers. “Stop when you like” that was my enhanced offer. That way they have complete control to who ever...

    Johnny Archer vs. Savannah Easton

    Terrible action there. That room had the highest % of nut hunters of any pool room ever. Sure play 1P Rich even and get robbed. It’s so bad there I ran a social experiment. I offered 6/5 on coin flips. Let a guy flip the coin AND call it. Guaranteed losing $ for me. I couldn’t ever get anyone...

    Any McDermott Cue Players?

    The cue above Mike Massey gave me as a gift about 12-13 years ago. It’s 60” long, longer if you add the bumper and tip. The emeralds are real I think, oddly they don’t bother me when I’ve played with it. It plays great, goes through the ball very good.

    Rosewood Barry Szamboti Cue For Sale

    Super nice Barry. I have one that’s the same colors, probably built around the same time. Looks much better in real life than the pics. I’m certain this cue does as well. Fatboy Approved

    Johnny Archer vs. Savannah Easton

    He’s in a good spot right now(his mind), the last few years he went through it bad, life was brutal for him. Somethings were beyond his control, some weren’t. Life isn’t easy. Like all great players time steals talent, and that’s a difficult thing to cope with. He’s mentally strong and finding...

    Johnny Archer vs. Savannah Easton

    She lost because she was out played. Too bad I wanted to see her win, in a year maybe 2 she will be able to beat who ever she lost to in the finals. On the topic of age. Most of the guys who are at the top all started playing by 16. And lots of us who didn’t make it also were in 100% by age...

    Pool hustler rules poster.

    John Coito (spelled wrong of course) drew those up. He was a great guy, he did lots of pool art. I wish I could see it all again
