I didn't judge them, the commentator did. He said Filler was the best in Europe and there were several that could be the best in the world if they played one pocket. Filler was the typical straighter shooter that IMO hardly missed a shot. Filler lost games because Tony knew more moves and...

I kinda feel sorry for Filler, he doesn't know the simple shots that are routine for long time one pocket players. Filler is a straight shooting son of a gun, and that has kept him in the match. I had to laugh at the dumb commentators though, they were saying how the European players would...

I was only around Kim Davenport one time, as I have spent most of my time in the Midwest. He came for an exhibition, and long story short, when he left I was a big fan. A real class guy, well spoken and represented billiards in a very positive light. We sure need more folks like Kim in...

As noted, I try to pick up Fellini cases whenever I can. I have bought them from $150-250, but I want cases with labels and as original as possible. So again, to me not a huge value. I think it could be sold for $200 to a lot of folks he aren't sticklers. I wish you the best, Ken

You are still playing out of Highpockets? Tell Tracy I said hi, and I miss all the guys. Ken

Buddy Hall told me stories about Keith and Louie. He said he would beat them until they were broke and they just kept coming back to play him, convinced they would beat Buddy. This was when Buddy was in Shreveport, and was practically unbeatable. As a youngster, living in Terre Haute...

My thoughts too. Filler looks like a God playing someone that isn't that strong. Brandon always seemed like a nice guy but I would always bet against him. I guess I am jaded after seeing Efren playing Jason Miller. Jason is an incredible player, and in three games in the finals of the...

You have played and beaten "the ghost".....and now you and the ghost don't play pool, you just are drinking buddies.... Ken

I think it is an Andy Gilbert cue. Early Andy Gilbert cues were not signed, they had a "G" on the butt cap. If the butt cap was replaced, the G on the original was lost. Ken

John - I guess I didn't realize that Sky played Eddie full rack. Give me break, old age IMO, Eddie was a damn fine banker. I remember someone telling me that Skyler beat him pretty handily, I guess I just had DCC banks on my head. No disrespect to anyone. I know a lot of folks knows...

I played leagues with Skyler and his dad, while I lived in Paducah. Skyler was just an awesome kid, who just wanted to play pool. His dad helped him and he was a good player but nothing like Skyler is now. Ken

I honestly don't know if Skyler has even played full rack banks. I lived in Paducah and there were some awesome bank pool players and they played full rack for $2 ball ring game. I know John has played TONS of full rack. Short rack might be a different story IMO. Ken

Are you sure Tiny Tim isn't in there? Ken

First, use tan chalk. Pool room owners will hate you. But it will keep your shaft cleaner. Secondly, wash your hands often. Third use magic eraser. Forth, apply shaft wax. I use butchers wax. Good luck. Ken

Well streamers - I have an idea.... Lets get these Kentucky boys in a head to head bank pool match. Maybe I have been watching too much YouTube and other streams but I think this would be an awesome match and stream. I guess this would be a great change from the normal matches we have seen...

Mine would say, "AGAIN?" Ken

Outstanding cue. Lucky Lonny. Ken

The advice on GC rails I was given was unless they were terrible don't replace them. I have a GC III that I bought and went through powder coating the metals and recovering with Simonis 860. I asked some mechanics and they said you couldn't get the original stuff anymore but there was an...

I wonder, if John had won, how many of those side bettors would have paid off? My thoughts are probably few of them would have actually paid off. I too, got lessons from an old hustler from my hometown. Make everyone post, especially those you know. (I was whining, about someone not...

I call bull$hit…. "Again, to the forum fans and billiards, it has been this committee’s honor and pleasure to name the annual Louie Roberts Action and Entertainment Award for the past 10+ years. Initially what was started as a way to reward the excitement that action players brought to the...
