John I am the person that you may recall that said I was rooting for you but thought you to be the underdog. I have since had a chance to talk to a few people who had a better sense of both players involved and now I am happy to say I am still rooting for you and now consider Lou to be the...

It wasn't just Earl. From what I have heard quite a bit of it could have been cured by a combination of self discipline and leadership.

Is this men vs women or american men vs women? It never ceases to amaze me how people draw the distinction. Consider this, if you tallied up all of them women who played and all the men who played and then weigh that vs level of skill I think that you would find that percentage wise women are...

I remember watching this when it was streamed. I also remember feeling bad for Grady as it was obvious that time had taken a toll on him but at the same time happy to see him still hitting the balls. RIP Grady, the one pocket world isn't the same without ya.

Me too I can't wait till next years event. Who knows, with the way things are going they might have a bigger facility by then. You left too early John, you could have went to dinner with us afterwards. Nick told some great stories and Bigtruck and I had some good conversation as well, Ray is one...

It was good meeting you John, I'm sorry I didn't get more time to chat with you. I thought it was classy of you to donate a couple of cases to help out the Lindenwood team.

Thanks, I'm glad you liked them. Sorry I'm not a better photographer. My poor camera is on it's last leg!

And my favorite pic of the night, Nick Varner and I.

I was able to attend the Durbin Cup match at Lindenwood University this weekend. Mike Durbins team consisted of some really great players including Liz Lovely, Joey Gray and Hall Of Famer Nick Varner. Several of the matches are available on you tube thanks to the great streaming by Big Truck...

See you there BigTruck. It will be nice to finally meet you in person.

I cringed a little when I saw that vid. I was a machinist for years and ran several lathes. This is not a safe way of doing it but he got the job done and the finished product looks okay. I don't think people should have slammed him so much in the comments but what can you do. If I were him I...

This is a idea that I will be happy to be a part of.

To the OP, I feel for ya. I have had to deal with similar situations before. It sucks when you have to deal with owner would would step over a dollar to pick up a dime.

Good post. I have had the pleasure of meeting and playing against a few of Marks Lindenwood students. Never before have I walked into a pool room and been greeted in such a way. His students are polite, welcoming and knowledgeable about the game. I was as impressed with their behavior as I...

I'm trying to figure up how much it would cost to season my table with Kamui chalk!

Damn, all this time I have been taking the seasoning off my table. :thumbup:

After reading this my first thought was "If he was a good hustler...he wouldn't have been on TV....or famous! Good read though.

I wondered a bit about Landon, if he would be someone that Mark would consider. He handled Earl with ease at Tunica winning 15-4 playing 10 ball on a 10 foot diamond. Even with Earl behaving poorly Landon didn't let it get to him. Is he Mosconi cup ready, I don't know. But I know this, the kid...

Nice job! For some reason when I play the ghost I seem to get a fair amount of bad luck. For instance, I may get a few break and runs and it looks like I am going to with the match and up jumps the Devil and I get a real crappy table spread after the break and just can't get out. The ghost...
