    F.Boy Round Final 32 US Open/Pickem?

    I will take 5 players only - way the worst of it - against the rest of the field. SVB, Jayson Shaw, Chang Jung Lin, Joshua Filler and Albin Ouschan for $100. You can have the other 251 players. A foolish bet, but something to sweat. Only the first to responder will be the lucky person. The...

    Pool in Tucson

    Pockets is very nice. If you play on table 8, I would like your opinion if that isn't the most level table you have ever played on. I was truly amazed.

    Duell was young

    First time I saw Cory, he came into CJ's in Dallas with Alex P. They were both 19, I think. Cory could already play championship speed. Don't remember the exact details, but he matched up and outran the nuts.

    What is your opinion of Lasik surgery?

    Both eyes in 2004. Seeing 20/20 or 20/15, depending on blood sugar. Had surgery where I chose to wear reading glasses instead of Omnivision. At age 73, I would highly recommend.

    Players Attempting to Unionize?

    Pool players that want to unionize are going to shoot their selves in the foot again and again. At the current time, there is a lot of high paying tournaments, and the calcuttas are at record levels. History will tell you that you can be cut off when you demand more added money, paid entry...

    HOUSTON/TX PLAYERS - Javier Franco

    Javier told me the story of when he decided to play pool full time. I have known Javier since early 80's. He was picking tomatoes in Florida, making a meager wage daily. Said he went to a bar and won like $250/ I really do not remember exact amount. Then he said, NO MORE PICKEE TOMATOES ! The...

    Pat, I just purchased early bird all tables. What a bargain it is, especially since you can watch ALL matches for 30 days. Thank you for this option. (y)

    RIP Scott Lee

    So shocked to hear this. I personally did not know Scott, but his insights and knowledge in his many posts show that the pool world has lost one of its greatest promoters and and lover of the game of billiards. RIP, Scott. You will be missed.

    Jeremy Jones

    Billy, With all due respect, I disagree. Jeremy is a friend of mine, like you are, but in my opinion, you are the best. I will put Jeremy right under you, though. Jeremy, I think you are the best - but after listening to Billy for years - he is a sentimental favorite.

    Many players who don't miss.

    One other thing about Allen - name me or show me someone who has or had a shorter, jabbier stroke. Before Efren came over, Allen was considered the best all around player in early 80's.
