he sat down, took off his shoe and sock and used his sock as a golf glove.

the key is to make every situation an excuse to improve Thanks! Looking back at my life and career I always learned and matured more from losses than from wins. I developed an almost obsessive desire to learn and improve mentally, physically and Spiritually which led to countless hours...

This is the story based at a Professional Pool Tournament in Chicago where I played one of the all time strongest pool players from the Philipines, Francisco Bustemante. In the match I ran 8 racks in a row without missing and immediately Francisco ran 9 (many eye witnesses says it was more, but...

My main style was Shaolin Kung Fu, but I studied under a couple other Masters in other styles, I also studied 18 different weapons that helped my pool stroke quite a bit.

Sometimes the Hustler, becomes the Hustlee, when we are gambling at pool. I learned a very important lesson when I was a teenager from one of the best, "Harley from Jacksonville" who schooled me a lesson in Dallas that was worth far more than the cost of admission. This is the story...

This story describes when I went from being broke in South Carolina to cashing in BIG @ Florida in just a couple of weeks with Strong Arm John, one of the world's greatest hustlers. The players in Southern Florida still talk about what happened, here is the "inside story" of how we pulled off...

Pool is about feel and touch, not who has the best eye sight. Steve Mizerak told me he never visualized a shot, at first I though this was odd.....a few years later I understood what he meant, there's a level above visualization which allows you to FEEL the shot (with your eyes too). Pool is...

All The Aiming is Done Above The Shot, by Aligning Precisely and Consistently Pool is an easy game to learn if you are fortunate enough to find top shelf information, like I did in Toronto Ontario, and on the road with men that had to win, there was no other option! It's always wise to learn...
