In the 70's and 80's he was tough to beat especially on the bar table with the big ball.

I saw Bill Mielke playing Woody Gumphreys 8 ahead for 1K, Woodey had 3 games and Bill won the game and ran 10 racks in a row on a bar table with the big ball, that was pretty impressive, that was around 1979 or 1980.

2 out of 3 sets of 8 or 10 ahead, with winner breaks, would be a better way to go.

As much as I like Dennis' game, I would take SVB, in 9 or 10 ball, winner breaks, 10 ahead for the cheese.

Does he still play?

His IQ in pool is off the charts, the other not so much...

In hindsight, yes playing safe would've been better.

I agree this was the error that certainly changed the match.

ftw!!!...:-)

Loser breaking absolutely takes away from the excitement of the game and slows it down to a crawl, I think it also makes for more safety play, which doesn't help. I realize kicking and safety play is a big part of the game. I don't think the loser breaks scenario would be good for TV if that...

I agree, they need to parent those whiners!

He was clearly out of his zone.

I have a Bert Schrager that I got from him new ($80.00 w/ivory ferrule) in the late 70's that plays pretty good. :D

Ignacio all day long!

thanks, and yes the hit is very solid...

You're right, I read the post wrong...

There are way to many variables to take into account, especially playing a race. The guy is under no obligation whatsoever to adjust. They made the game and if someone doesn't like it they can quit. Where do you go from the 7 ball, the 7 and the breaks or the 6 ball, that is a ton of weight...

I like the colors too...

No, I like that way this cue hits the ball.

Here's all the pics I have.
