    Since you mentioned it, I’d always choose a session playing someone who is a gentleman not looking for the exploit. Ofc I was guilty of starting the problem a few times when I had to, I know it sounds horrible and it probably was, but life was different back then. Doesn’t make it right, but...

    I perfer to play alt break as I’m not a threat to sting together a package, I couldn’t ever break is why. So alt break is great for me to slow down the other player. From a rail bird perspective (which is what I am now) I like winner break. It’s more fun to watch. But that’s just my take on...

    Some players like Keith fed off the momentum and I’d say in his case winner breaks is a big edge for his personality. Some players I agree they have the same chance. But the “play the rush” types I think winner breaks is a edge for them Best Fatboy Hope your trip was/is going well😃

    Efren is cool. I watched it 2 nights ago. He came with a shot that was better than the Z shot in that session too. Milk is good! 🤩

    This is great! The sore losers….. Reminds me of a session I played a guy, he went out back and punched the wall and broke his hand. I was 21 he was 18. I busted him. Thankfully he was mad at himself for asking me to play, not at me.

    That is great insight. And yes having thicc skin (notice the modern spelling of thick 😉) to be able to not let the shenanigans bother you is another skill set that’s critical. Some guys are tourney tuff, others are able to handle the bullshit of “S” ing (I just can’t use that word) . I’ve never...

    There was a time in pool where for some the art of the S word was as important as playing good. For the gifted players or the rich this has never been a thing, I’m glad I’m not at that point in life now and can play any game on the square and not worry. But having a skill set of other “ways”...

    I can live with that. There’s a 40 year backstory. Relax I ain’t played in 10 years

    He wasn’t smart enough to figure that out and as I said that was a different time in my life. Also yeah I factored in the parking lot, lol he needed the 7 there!

    When I had to play pool for $ sometimes I’d have to “find” ways to win as talent (or lack of) wasn’t gonna cut the mustard. So I’m guilty of this (I can’t bring myself to use the ‘S’ word). I had one particular game with a guy I’d play pretty regularly for a couple years. He played much...

    Increase in custom cue prices

    I just sold a Prewitt for a much larger number than that. Cue market is healthy right now. It’s not the 90’s, but it’s not dead.

    Las Vegas Cue Club

    Katy has got Cue Club looking much nicer, it’s 100% worth going to if you are in Vegas. She knows how to run a pool room and since she has taken it over its tip top. I owned 2 commercial buildings directly across the street from Cue Club for about 15 years, while it’s still not the best area in...

    Sold FS: Gus Szamboti "Four Ebony Points & A Steel Joint" An Extraordinary Player

    Very good cue from a very good seller. It should also be noted that Gus didn’t make many cues with maple that pretty as well. Less than 5% or one in 20 have figured maple that nice. This nice ticks all the boxes for anyone looking for a top notch Gus

    Since they posted up most of the cash, it’s a hostile take over Stu, like the corporate raiders in the 80’s 😂 On a lighter note, it has been a very enjoyable event. And played to a very high standard. Hope all is well with you Best Fatboy 😃😃

    Good cue makers

    This needs to be the accepted standard by the American Cue Makers Association 🏆🏆🏆Fatboy Approved🏆🏆🏆 Long past due to have some solid foundation of standardization in our industry. This will also help clarify the hit of a cue for an uninformed or confused retail buyer of cues. The only real...
