Don't feel bad brother Jay - I out-move everybody I play/played...:eek:...:thumbup: Nah Steve, I couldn't confuse older, hair-challenged Sy, with long dreadlocked Pittsburg Steve. - Ghost

Sy Brown was not tall, on the contrary, he was short - about 5'7"...we gambled playing One Pocket about 10 yrs. ago at the DCC - he played good...at that time, and for many years, he lived in Detroit...I believe he passed away several years ago - Steve Lomako would know. - Ghost

Yes, he did....in Grady's Legends tournament, which I played in, that was held in Columbia, South Carolina in, I think 2002, we used the 'Grady rule'. - Ghost

I agree with you 100% - I cringed when I watched it happening. - Ghost

You pm me, and then we schedule a day to meet up :thumbup2:

Saw this thread, and thought I would post up... Well, as far as I know, I believe that along with Bill "Mr. 3cushion" Smith, I am, sadly, the only other pool player left around who was a regular at Bensinger's Billiard Academy, and after that, Freddy, Bobby (R.J.'S dad), and Phil's North Shore...

Cute as hell. - Ghost

17 yrs. ago, to escape the northern winter, I spent Nov.- March traveling/playing pool all through Florida, top to bottom - Miami to Tallahassee...had a great time... Stayed in Ocala at one point for a coupla weeks and ran into Johnny Furber there at the poolroom on the town square, up on the...

No, that's not my old pal Willie Munson...that's Vikram - he's a regular at my poolroom - Chris's Billiards in Chicago..and he's not that old, in his 50's - the walker is due to a current medical condition...he plays pretty good, and he's always in action. - Ghost

Yes - and have been playing pool here since playing at the famous Bensinger's Billiard Academy in the late 60's. - where my good old friends, may they RIP, Freddy the Beard, George Fels, and Bugs Rucker would also be playing. Very surprising that anyone would ask me about Howard Wilcox...yes, I...

Some of you may be interested in knowing that my good friend and respectful :eek: One Pocket student, the notorious, curmudgeonly, and frequently banned from azbilliards :p Patrick Johnson, was heavily involved in the development and creation of Surge Billiards. - Ghost

xian, you were close = they are GC2 bases with GC5 tops. Yeah, I played at Marie's way back in the day also... Yo Scott - not quite right re. Chris's...very few people know that the poolroom Chris's Billiards was originally Bob's Billiards, owned by Bob Ries - Bob originally put together the...

Chris's Billiard's One Pocket tournament 12/10/17 I think this might answer your question >>> http://www.onepocket.org/forum/showpost.php?p=226516&postcount=5

iutbr, no it's not normally shot cuz the three downsides to the shot (object ball catching the opponents pocket points and selling out - object ball leaving your opponent a cross-corner bank - scratching in the top corner pocket ) out weigh the upside......however, your shot is a very common...

If I were to make an ironic post in this thread, it would be by occident. :groucho:
