    Death of a sport (Long post)

    Snooker used to be my favorite pocket billiard game. I never played it well but it sure was fun to play. There is a pool hall in Flint, Michigan that has a very nice well kept snooker table. Middle age to older guys play golf on the snooker table. I'd lose $15.00 bucks and quit and watch it...

    10 Ball Practice, Comments Please

    I forgot to tell you, my favorite game is 10 ball because you have to call every shot. I play 9 ball call shot only. It bothers me when someone slops in a low ball and then runs the rack. With call shot this can't be done. My favorite game is still 14.1 straight pool but very few people will...

    10 Ball Practice, Comments Please

    I'll play any game a person wants to play, but I learn the game before I will bet playing it. 9 ball used to be my best game When I practice for 9 ball or 10 ball I put 6 through 9 or 10 ball on the table and try to run them 10 times. If I run them 8 or more times I add one more ball and try...

    Hostile Conditions

    At the end of a game or match I would say "All that practice is finally paying off" with a big warm smile, say good game or match and move on. I would not change pool halls unless they are really getting to you. I to am cocky a little bit. It's just part of the game. My two favorite things...
