    Does anyone think Frost is favourite over Alex in the upcoming 1p $50000 match?

    Yeah, you may be right about Efren, but we also pull for the greats to find that lightning in a bottle on more time, ala Jack Nicklaus at the 1986 Masters'. Still probably the greatest excitement I ever got watching a sporting event. (Tom at the British would have been epic too). And Efren is...

    Does anyone think Frost is favourite over Alex in the upcoming 1p $50000 match?

    If Frost brings his best mental game and plays a little more controlled game, I think he is still the slight favorite. That being said, if I had to bet, my money would be on Alex, because I'm not sure Scott is strong enough mentally to overcome the last coupla losses to Alex. Will the table make...

    How good is/was Scotty Townsend?

    Yeah, this is the story I was going to post. In Olathe,KS, I thought originally Scotty was going to get the seven from Kiamco. But whatever happened, Scotty said screw the spot, let's play even. And like you said he got the cash. This is 'old school' personified. Scotty is one of a kind. Ralph...

    Chris Mellings thoughts on SVB

    Well, Melling was talking about nine ball wasn't he. I didn't watch the quote. SVB would post so fast Melling would barely get the words out of his mouth. There is no doubt in my mind, Melling wants NO part of SVB playing ten ball, or nine ball. Not betting his own money.NO Freaking way, he...

    Chris Mellings thoughts on SVB

    I think what Chris needs to do is tell Shane, let's play some 10 ball, neutral racker and we will both put up our own $50,000, race to 50, or 20 ahead. Now that's what he needs to do if he really thinks he is the better player. And if he has some supporters, he can probably get another $100,000...

    Sorry, to hear this, kudos to Jamie the owner for giving you the $200.

    This Place Has Turned Into A Ghost Town

    Yeah, it's always good to look for value. Pletcher seems to target this race kind of like Woody Stevens did(5 in a row). So his horses are usually live.

    It is absolutely true that absolute truth does not exist.

    Slow night, or are you negotiating with hookers again? :thumbup:

    This Place Has Turned Into A Ghost Town

    I don't know. It's inevitable that things are more interesting when you first get here. Then you see the same subjects rehashed. It is what it is. There will usually be something of interest to me, just not as much as in the past. In the Belmont,I'm keying AP and Materiality with Keen Ice and...

    Shooting Stars

    Janis is from Port Arthur, Texas. Lots of little dive bars back then and they all had a couple of barboxes. She moved to Austin where she was 'discovered' by Kenneth Threadgill (he turned a service station into one of Austin's first bars). Threadgill's is still there today (two locations), both...

    Chance encounter with a pool player

    Great idea, and good for you! I'm sure the man would enjoy that. I, too, have had experience with that awful disease (my father). God bless both of you! Edit: And please do post about it if it does happen.....thanks.

    AzB's Dumbing Down

    LOL, SJD is so damn jealous for anyone to have the spotlight. or get any kind of credit, it is just blatantly obvious. Talk about track record, it started with Freddy B., it was so bad he was able to get a very lenient guy like Steve B. to boot him from OP.org even though he's in the HOF. I've...

    AzB's Dumbing Down

    I do make positive posts, but it's hard to be positive when the subject is you and your 'nothing good to say' posts, criticizing someone who is just trying to share knowledge of the game. No one's arm is being twisted to buy anything.

    CJ probably wouldn't even know who you are if you hadn't followed him around dogging him every chance you get. You are right that it is much easier to learn something being with the instructor at a pool table. However raising these subjects make people aware of them and they may seek out 'live'...

    LOl, CJ is a former NUMBER ONE Player in the world. Sure he has stuff to sell but also offers a lot of free advice. You on the other hand are a jealous man who can't stand to see ANYONE get ANY credit for knowing ANYTHING about the game of pool. And you have been told this a thousand times, yet...
