I love that it's bar table 8-ball. And they're on a shot clock that forces them to play relatively quick. Sometimes you're lucky enough to watch a shootout, but I think I've only seen one of those since they've been playing these tournaments in the states.

I made that mistake once. Answered my door for some skinny young fella. My wife is the SVB of online shopping. He said "Are you Eric?" I said yes. He handed me my ticket and was outta there faster than I could even imagine! Yada, yada, yada, I beat the ticket in court. :D

I'd love to. Hopefully they come to Phoenix so I don't have to miss work.

What makes him a "hustler" and not just an "unknown"?

I wouldn't say he slammed the chalk on the table. As far as I'm concerned, there is nothing to see here.

I really do want to play in one of these events. They have been my favorite tournaments to watch.

Chalk me up to Taom on my playing cue and Master's on my jump and break.

I planned on going to this event when it first got posted. Had to cancel since I just started a new job. Can't wait to watch it on youtube!

I'm on digital pool and the main 9-ball event bracket is listed as "private". Is everyone else getting the same message? **EDIT: It looks like they are doing the auction now, so probably will be available after...

It may have happened. If anyone could do it, it would be him. But this thread alone should be enough for people to question the validity of "witnessed" high runs. People are arguing over how many racks were run in a tournament that happened just one year ago. I would bet against anyone that...

I think that's because most of the pool players quit playing there. :D Within 10-15 minutes of that place we have Main Street Billiards and Dozer's. Both super clean and stocked with clean and shiny diamonds!

It definitely was a players room when it opened. It evolved from a players room into a successful business!

Still don't think I've met the guy. Maybe if some of the rooms offered free pool, free drinks, and free food I would have a chance of running into him!

What pool hall do you call home?

I run into him every now and then and we catch up for a few minutes. Last time I spoke to him was maybe 6 months ago. He was still running Mills Modern Social (formerly Freezer's Ice House). That place is making a TON of money focusing on the college and young adult crowd in Tempe, AZ. We...

Who do you think is fibbing the most? :)

I always crack up when reading these threads. I've played with plenty of people from these forums and if they ever played half as good as they claim to I'd be impressed. Of course there are plenty of honest ones, but threads like this turn into a joke real quick.

Just leave. This isn't an airport, you don't need to announce your departure.

I sweat a lot when I play. I always seem to leave a little sweat on the rails, and sweat through my glove too. The worst part for me is that when I sweat through the glove, the part of the glove that touches the table can leave a black mark on the cloth. I sometimes change gloves if the match...

When did you play in AZ? Curious if we know each other.
