Gambling was still solid in the 90's. It was a fun time for me. I did pretty well and had a blast. Pool is a small community, especially locally and the higher you get. I knew some players that wouldn't get their picture taken if they won something in Vegas. They didn't want to be on the radar...

Kamala word salad above.

I have to ask how long ago this was. Pre 90's, there wasn't that much information available on the players. "Roadplayers" have become a thing of the past for the most part. I remember my friend checking the license plates in the parking lots. Out of state license could mean a road player in the...

The problem doesn't lie with Fargo, the problem lies with the tournament director and their rules of admission. Unfortunately, handicapping of any type is the real problem, but that is a double edge sword. In a perfect world, there are no handicaps and people play by the rules that were...

Is there no limits to what Earl will try?

I have to agree with STU, I think the level has risen tremendously and they are all monsters. As I said in another post, the equipment and knowledge are better than it has ever been. Players shoot the lights out today, there are just more of them. I like to use this as an example: Evel Knievel...

I was going to say something similar. Damn humans are inferior, why do we need them? Destroy. Destroy. Destroy. P.S. I am not a robot.

Just came across this little gem from MD:

Yeah, that was quite a performance. I agree we won't see those types of years very often.

That's how I spell my name when I'm drunk...Wojciech Szewczykphhhffffttt.

There is a natural ability that some have. No matter how hard I try, I will never be as tall as Wilt Chamberlain! There is talent, natural ability, genetic anomalies...call it what you will, some have it and some don't. It's not what you don't have in life, it's all about what you do with what...

A couple months ago, I played pool with ex-Cubs pitcher, Ryan Dempster. As you would expect from a professional athlete, solid hand-eye coordination. What surprised me a little was the power of his stroke. It probably shouldn't have in hindsight. Dempster's acceleration thru the ball is just...

That is true Bob, we might even be able to go deeper. The level at the top is close to perfection and a lot of times it comes down to the rolls. Insanely good players.

Honestly, I think it would be a little bit of a curse. I love pool, but I don't want to be on tour. I think Mike Dechaine experienced a little bit of it and that is why he doesn't play anymore. Anyway...yeah I wish I did too!. Speaking of Mike, he is still the 3rd highest US Fargo.

I used them one time and literally didn't even finish the game. I hated them that much.

I said, probably a year ago, I thought Fedor is the best in the world now. Glad some others are coming on board with me. That is crazy to think when we have the likes of Filler, Shaw and FSR...potentially at the tops of their games. Crazy good competition at the top, that is for sure. One for...
