Blud, just had breakfast with Buddy, and he recalls the match with "Cesar Morales" as a seven-ahead match for 10 large, and he won one set. Red charged for admission to watch them in this match and split the gate monies with Efren and Buddy. And you are right, it was 10-ball that they played...

They think this is all fun and games, Phyllis! ;) My bags are packed and I'm leaving for the Open in a few short hours. I'm taking no prisoners. War is hell. :cool:

Last year I was in a tournament, this year I'm ready for war!

I was over there at the Red's tournament in Houston. Buddy Hall was rated the best 9-ball player in the country at that time. This was when Efren Reyes entered his first big tournament here in the States, going by the name of "Cesar Morales." After Red, myself, and a couple other people...

There was lots of times I had 12,000 on me, but at this certain incident, it was 36,000. I got lucky at the track, and that's what I had. It was at Trident Junior High in Anaheim, California, and the PE coach marched me to the principal's office. Jay Helfert has always been a real close...

Bill, I gotta tell ya', when I read the title of this thread, I had to pinch myself to make sure I was still alive. [ha-ha] I've got a lot of fond memories from my days in Baton Rouge. I was running around the pool room like a chicken with my head cut off and had to settle for Mike Sigel. It...

You're in good company, John! ;)

Greg, we'll stay in touch. The pool room looks GREAT! If you can break away, it would be nice to see you in Virginia Beach. The first one is on me! :)

Bottom right! :D

Keeping Janice in my prayers, Leonard. Your friend, Keith

Thanks for your kind words, Wakuljr and Gwvavases! The book is coming along just fine. Don't have a release date yet, but I can see the finish line and I'm hoping to close real soon. I want it to be the complete package, and it's a lot of hard work, believe me. I'm lucky to have a lot of...

Hey, Greg, that's mighty nice of you to extend such nice invitation, and I do remember taking that picture with your son. I'll bet he plays pretty good now! I'm sort of committed to two tournaments that are happening the same weekend as yours, October 23-24. As you know, though, funny things...

Just got back from the Virginia State 9-Ball Tournament held by Josh Dickerson at The Playing Field in Richmond, Virginia. Josh, I had THE BEST time! The tournament was FIRST CLASS, and there was a perfect full field of 64 players with no byes! Chris Loar of Fredericksburg, Virginia, is the...

Glad to hear you're going to make it to the Open, Rude Dog. I won't be too hard to find. ;) I'm sure we're all going to have a great time. There's nothing better than playing well in the Open. Have a safe journey, and I look forward to seeing you there! :)

The One, there's a variety of regional tours here as well as large tournaments, and each one has its own personality. The Derby City Classic in Louisville, Kentucky, is one you may like and will give you the opportunity to compete in a variety of games. Allen Hopkins' Super Billiards Expo in...

Wayne, I remember that place very well. It was the Billiard Den on 6th and Western. Those guys in the parking lot with the clothes (and anything else you wanted) were always looking to make a deal. I found myself buying clothes from them lots of times. :) When I was 17, I was playing every...

Wally, I used to play straight pool when I was a kid at Bob's Billiards in Orange County. I learned the game from my step-dad, Bob Wallace. I used to run hundreds myself back then. Ever since 9-ball got introduced, straight pool sort of went out to pasture. My best game that I got to watch...
