GFG! You cannot possibly leave us all hanging on that! What was it? Lou Figueroa

She was waiting for the bar down the street to open at 6am -- that was the "bus" she was waiting for. Also, in the book, she turns Eddie down the first time they meet and don't go to her place until like maybe the third time they meet. She had insomnia and was an alcoholic drinking so she...

He clearly said in OP: "...anybody have any tips on how to pocket the 1B and draw the CB back for the 2B in the corner?" I'm thinking that would make you the... well, you know ;-) Lou Figueroa

IMO, jacked up shots are one of those specialty shots you have to devote a certain amount of time to to develop a particular technique to execute them reliably. Pay attention to: your bridge hand placement on the rail (you can vary that quite a bit), and also how you raise your grip up for...

So far everything is alright. Lou Figueroa follow up CT scan next week

I'll take a look at that later on but it's not about high pressure situations -- I do fine playing Efren, Busty, or anyone else in the Accu-Stats arena. Done OK for money and in the late stages of tournaments too. What happen to me was during a casual game. Lou Figueroa

Let's just say I have a lot of respect for Mark. Lou Figueroa

I have had to recently undergo a CT scan and a skull to knee MRI for a lung issue and Gail told me before the MRI, "Well maybe they will find a brain tumor... it would explain sooooo much." Lou Figueroa

Of course I agree. And as I've previously mentioned, there are a lot of moving parts involved with hitting pool balls accurately. AND there is the actual movements involved with getting into your shooting position. FWIW, I think you might want to look for more elements that result from a good...

oh no, lol. That's not gonna help me. Lou Figueroa

Oh yes. On more than one occasion in my pool life I have had to go into the bathroom, wash my hands, pull out my drivers license and look into the mirror to make sure it was me playing out there, lol. Lou Figueroa

Nope. I just turned 72 and other than some occasional knee and hip pain I'm in pretty good shape and see the balls, post cataract surgery, better than I ever have. Lou Figueroa

I agree with this. There are a lot of parts -- from your feet on up -- that all have to be in proper position to execute precision pool. One gremlin and it all goes kablewee. Lou Figueroa

a yah, but it began right at the beginning of a match. Lou Figueroa

Bob, I was fresh as a daisy when it happened. Lou Figueroa

Right. This last time, I felt I was doing everything right mechanically... only the balls were going sideways on me, lol. Lou Figueroa

Yes, I think on occasion it can be outside stuff. Something at home or work, maybe just obnoxious players nearby, or the music on the juke box. Lou Figueroa

See, my thought is exactly the opposite: to drill into it and attempt to figure out what's amiss. Lou Figueroa

As some (many) know, I'm writing a book and something happen to me this past weekend that I would want to address in said book. It is something that has happened to me in the past but was particularly dramatic/traumatic this past weekend. I've been playing pretty good, consistent, high level...

Garbage in, garbage out. Lou Figueroa just sayin'
