Hey Mike! Congrats! Couldn't happen to a more deserving guy. Remember when you asked why I wasn't playing on the pro tour in the AZB room in Vegas? Well now I have an in with you. Just kidding. :p

Can you close off the pool room so there is no access to it except when you are playing? If not, you may be faced with this: ? My friend had a cat (she died a little while ago) and she was so mellow. She would just sit in her chair and watch us...or sleep. Can't find the pics right now, but...

I see this thread was revived from 2004, but if Mark ever comes woofing at you again, you might want to blackmail him with this picture. It should be worth a couple balls, no pun intended. :wink:

You could try Dave Lauer at The Parlor over in Bellevue. I have both his and Dave Jones's phone numbers if you want to PM me.

Robin is a sweetie. She sent me 2 signed posters for my niece and nephew and they were over the moon about that! Thanks again Robin. I'll be sure to visit your booth and bring in more customers for the Frog! :rolleyes: :cool: :wink:

Yep, Classic Billiards is where to go to find the players. Bill Cress, Glenn Atwell, John Moribido, Brad Gowin, Russ Pettis, Little Scotty, etc. If you go to www.onthebreaknews.com, you can find some of the weekly tournaments in that area.

LOL, I will, sweetie!

Yes, I did need to bear down. Last time I played her in Regionals in March, I did bear down and I might have skunked her. Pool is just not my life right now. I just show up at the tournaments with no preparation. OK, I did play once during that week before, lol. If I'm not putting in the...

Thanks everyone and congrats again, Andrea. I do want to correct smoooothstroke, because it was not a well-played match on my end at all. I can't remember when I played so bad...couldn't run 2 balls. Every safe was open, every kick short. I remember thinking to myself, "Now these tables do...

Just checking in Mike and I were paid in full.

I didn't know this until I just got an email from Cheese saying that there is a forum on his site http://www.onthebreaknews.com/PoolPages/index.php and one of the forums is on the Western BCA Championships. I will be doing a little blog there every day and observations as a player and an...

That is really interesting. Do you really ride those like that??!!

No, the mouse. He was actually qualified to go too. He feels that since he isn't playing like he used to then he doesn't want to show up and make a fool (or bigger fool, that is ;) ) of himself. Even though he played almost flawless most of Saturday to win the tournament down here. My...

Someone told me they Googled me and I was interested to find what was up there and I actually found an old newspaper article from 1994! http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/archives/1994/9404100013.asp I remember those days vaguely, lol. The actual article had a cool picture of my reflection from...

Look me up. I will be there too. BTW, I just found out that the tables aren't going to be eating dollars this year! I guess we paid a $15 entry fee. Shoot, I used to go through $50 in 1 day!

I'll be there, playing singles, scotch and team, altho I still haven't met one of the gals on my team and barely know the other one, lol. I will be doing more interviews for On the Break News videos. Todd, we will miss you there. :frown: Had a little $15 entry tournament warmup today -...

Congrats, Roy, I am happy for you! But you don't need any exercise equipment. You will get enought exercise RUNNING the table!

Nikki is one of my favorite people. She is good friends with Kerri Hartsfield Impson who is one of my best friends too. Here is a photo of me with Nikki several years ago. Her smile is so sweet. I'm glad she is playing seriously again.

This is exactly how I do it. You would be surprised how often the contact point on the ball and extending through the backside to the rail will line up with a tit or a diamond, so just pretend that is the pocket for your first OB and just try to pocket the 1st ball as usual, forgetting the 2nd...
