    Jimmy Fusco vs Allen Hopkins.

    Well I got my answer, Thanks Jay! This makes T.Vanovers game even stronger, He beat Jimmy the 2 times they played even 9 ball here in Baltimore. And that was for thousands a set, high bet back then! They played back pocket 9 ball once at bill n billies in glen burnie, Jimmy won that match...

    One pocket - what would you do here?

    Thin the 6 and go 2 rails with the cue ball and stick it in the rack! Now your opponent is in deep trouble!

    Jimmy Fusco vs Allen Hopkins.

    I know that Jimmy has a few years on Allen, Jimmy mid 70s, Hopkins 60s? Two great 1 pocket players here, I would assume somewhere along the line these two great players had to match up playing 1 pocket? Does anyone know if they ever did match up. If the match did happen, I would of bet on...

    The Baldwin from old Bill AND BILLIES that I knew and hung out with more then a few times, was not anywhere close to a millionair! But anyway the man did gamble and got many big games started, Baldwins main man was Little Nicky. Baldwin and Nicky try so many times to bust Vanover, with Nicky...
