    Jacksonville Tournament Scene

    When I lived there, Bank Shots had a nice little $10 tourney on Sundays around 1pm.....played on 9 footers, nice atmosphere, the chicken salad was amazing, the players were strong, and the waitresses had short skirts.....I'm guessing that if you chat up some people, you should have no problems...

    Any Advice...

    IMHO, it's good to be upset when you miss a shot you should have made....means you identify your mistake and you want to win.....get upset, for a split second, but don't show it.....keep a concentrated face, or do the Efren smile thing already mentioned.... Keep the disappointment to a...

    What is the best league system?

    For the people that frequent your room and actually spend money, what leagues do they play? What leagues are prominent in your area? How many nights are you slow? Leagues with better players will typically be better on your equipment, but it's likely they will spend less $$$ on food and beer...

    Is there a way to adjust straight pool for beginners?

    Be creative....you could: Use a 10 ball rack....leave the bottom row out.....this limits your options a bit, causes less traffic, and will help you focus.... When the shooter tries to play leave on the last ball for the breakout, have him announce his intentions of how he is playing...

    Should I stop playing league

    Steven, you pose a really good question....IMHO, to be an A player or better, you need to be hitting balls 4 hours a day, 5 days a week.....the players I know that play A speed always have a cue in their hand......they are always either in league, tournaments, matching up, or practicing....the...

    How much is too much for you to bet racing to 9?

    When I used to gamble a bit, $100 sets were no biggie, but that was my ceiling.....after a hundie, I got uncomfortable.....not embarrassed, that's just the extent of my cheapness :D In my few trips to Vegas, my rule is $100 a day for gambling....whether it takes 8 hours or 10 minutes, when the...

    Do you take advice from players below your level?

    This, being a good student is being able to take something away from any situation.....the best, in any sport or even business, can listen to someone talk 90% BS, disregard all the BS, and learn something from the other 10% that has value..... The best position route is the one you can repeat...
