I really don't know all that much about players from the past other than what the guys from now tell me, and some of them played really good. MOsconi, and Hoppe come to mind from the first Gen, then mizerak and that generation. The generation after are the ones that are suppose to have been the...

Pool does not have a problem gaining popularity with any generation. Players always come back no matter what pulls them away. For me, an avid player, it's the spewing to table time that keeps me away. It is the only game that I spend the most money on. A night of pool for me is many hours at...

Little AL said, " The best players in the world came from San Francisco" I believe him.

Yeah but I don't see how we need more than just the pool players. There are so many of us. Even when I was playing league, they all were eager to watch the show. We even went to the tryout stages where everyone from your town that weren't on the roster, had a chance to make the cut. It was all...

I'm not interested in finding out what happened to the IPT, who funded it, or whether KT lost the amount you stated. What I know will do very little to help it, or pool. Further, it has absolutely zero relevance to my point, which is that the IPT is the most entertaining thing that has ever been...

What exactly did charlie do that was so bad? I just thought people complained about him putting his opponents to sleep. Is there anything else?

I know what happened with the whole poker thing. The IPT was sponsered by partypoker or something like that. The year the IPT aired, poker got regulated and it hurt online poker businesses big time. I don't know how much Kevin T. invested or that he even lost from the deal. What really matters...

It doesn't look like you're working on anything. Your speed can't be judged because you are only whacking at balls from a set position which anyone can do. It'll be better if you do something like try to runout a rack of one pocket, then we can see your pocketing skills and cueball.

Some guy tried to charge me 34$ for an hour and a half the other night. I was like wtf? His response was "oh I thought you were playing with so and so" "Well how much is it an hour?...and he was up here at the counter ( with you guys). I played by myself"

I caught the pcast at its end so I didn't get much. This last year on AZB, I've learned quite a few things about pool I had no idea about, and my entire life has been in the midst of it. This is what I learned: 1. Pool lacks an organization that can elevate its awareness to the mainstream. BUT...

Is there a link to the podcast?

Are you serious? How long will this take and how much money will it produce?

Brilliant. I would really like to know how much support we got from our sponsors and how much of it went to the players and promoters. This information may help with details for future organizing of events. If we get the numbers right, we can bring it and show it to prospective sponsors. The...

I truly feel this is how things are and CHANGE should be our theme. It's obvious that the only way to defeat the thieves and con men is changing the way we allow them to walk all over us, behind doors. I've been around a hustler who is very kind, smart, and compassionate about life and his...

I did this drill a long time ago and a real player slapped me on the back of the head and told me to get on a table with real cloth. When I got on fast cloth, the cue ball got loose every time. It's almost like trying to find a stroke that is never needed or only rarely needed. And if you ever...

Lol. The L drill? I rather play checkers with my grandmother.

It's only a secret if you don't know about it and there are quite a few but most have been posted on this forum.

You're right. I may be a jerk sometimes. I could have word it different. Sorry. Anyways about pool secrets. I think there are many. I'm always trying to learn from people who I think knows these secrets. They are always willing to help if you treat them like they have something of value, which...

lol..................

Before I knew how to play I learned that jumping below the axis is a foul. Even if you are serious, how will you ever know what it is you need to work on if you never run into a person willing to GIVE you the cake? Working extremely hard on something unnecessarily is pretty insane, wouldn't you...
