    "Confessions of a Pool Hustler"

    Bobby, hopefully one day I will meet you in person but I need to say it again. Your book was fantastic, I still can't believe some of the things you encountered on your travels. Marty

    Can you play good pool with any Cue?

    Had to test this theory last night, showed up at the bar without my cue. I got killed the first game because I tried to juice my first shot and the cue ball must have went 2" off of line. After that game I realized I just had to play a different game with no side spin, short follow and draw...

    Mosconi's full table length cueball bounce

    I did this shot by accident once and it was no where near safe. I was really made because I just missed a 9-ball and was 2 and out in a tournament that I should have done much better. I shot the cue ball hard down the table and it flew back and just about took my head off. Not the smartest move...

    Thanks guys, I can't wait to get home but a few more days in Edmonton won't hurt. Who knows, maybe I can win the ERO pot on Thursday and give myself a birthday present.

    Gambling Table Etiquette

    My $20 set is still worth more to me than their $2000 set is. They can wait until I am done, should have gotten there earlier or called ahead.

    Air Travel with Cues..Help!?

    I usually pack my cues in my suitcase with my clothes and do this but on my last flight the security agent would not allow me to bring my empty cue case on board. I have been carrying my cues around in a predator sleeve that was given to me by another local player. :mad:

    Cornhole

    Cornhole is a fantastic game, It always accompanies us on our camping trips. I went to this little hole in the wall pool join in Port Huron a while back and they had a cornhole game set off to the side that we played in between tournament matches. What a riot.

    Abandoned Cues

    All of the real pool players I know would climb a mountain to get their cue back if they left it somewhere. I would say after 2 months if no one has come back to get the cue they won't be coming. If you have had cues for more than 6 months I say sell them or donate them somewhere. I have only...

    One Pocket Break

    I have been here for 4 months on business and will be going back home in a week. In that 4 months I have met most of the pool players around town. Everyone here plays bar box 8-ball (I've been told its because they don't really have a good pool hall anymore). I have only found one other person...

    My Cue isn't straight, can it be fixed?

    The Joss cue is not even close to new. I got it off another guy who got it off another guy an so on. Like I said not worth spending lots of money just to fix it. I will just use it until I find another one for purchase.

    How Much for Re-Covering and Level

    How Much for Re-Covering and Level

    Just curious what an average price would be to recover a table, including the rails, with Simonis 860 and then get the table re-leveled. My cloth is getting worn out and I need to know how much money I need to save up. Also are there any mechanics in the Southern Ontario area that would be...
