    Beer curve

    There is a very knowledgable older player who I have played on the same team with. He is a strong player and can teach alot about the game. However he feels that he needs that initial 4-5 beer buzz and after he gets to 5 beers he slows to one per hour. Well by then he is three sheets to the wind...

    Playing the player

    I am of the play the table mentality. If the best percentage shot at the time is playing a easily execuated lock safe then do that. If you have confidence that you can make the shot, get shape and get to your clusters etc then do that. Getting a ball in hand off of a safety makes for better...

    Seattle Area AZers Roll Call

    Yeah that weekend would be a bad weekend on the 17th due to the Western BCA regional tourney. I don't think that I would make it up to the 'Ham for the tourney as it is anyways. Also on another note, the ACS regional tournament is the next weekend on the 22-25th as well. Not sure if anyone on...

    Dan Louie/Harry P playing banks now on

    12:34am Monday morning. Someone tell Steve "Buster" Graham to clean the shaft on his cue. You can see how dirty it is off the webcam. (He's in the what-looks-to-be Saints hat)

    ebay......holy crap lol.

    I had a Scruggs Sneaky Pete (probably one of the last few he made) between 2001-2003 or so. I used it as my player and in a lot of bar tourneys on Valleys. Over the course of a few years while breaking with it and driving it into the tables metal end caps I had scraped off alot of the finish on...

    Speak on your user name...

    I went to the University of Washington where I was the best player there. I have been out for a few years so I need to change my handle I guess. And the '1'...well I chose UWPoolGod first but forgot the password and could not get a password change email. So I started a new handle and added the 1.

    Why I hang on to the game of pool..

    Yeah I know what you mean. I am looking at buying a home and looked at one yesterday. Decent house, nice sqft, but no place to put a 9 footer. Not even in the two car garage because there is a bearing post in the middle and would interfere with some shots. So I said no thanks. I prefer to have...

    How many times have you seen someone run out a set?

    The best I have seen is Mike Vidas beat Paul Potier 9-0 where Paul had two kick shots during the match after Vidas safeties. 9 footers with rack your own. Mike was setting up the balls in the exact same order so they would end up in about the same locations after the break.

    left or right hand

    A guy I went to school with did this. He was a decent shooter but would miss some shots as we all do. One day he noticed that we were right handed but bridging with our left hand. He had been bridging with his right hand (being right handed) and stroking with his left. Once he realized he had...

    Ever call in sick to play pool?....

    I am salary so I can take off so many PTO days a year. However if I work until noon it counts as a full day and not a PTO day. A couple of time preparing for a bigger tourney I have used that tactic to get out for a full afternoon of practice.

    The Definitive Seattle Area Guide of Places to Play

    Very sad news. I did not know that. I dated Tiffany for quite a while when I lived in Seattle over 4 years ago now. I last saw her at the WesternBCA event this past October. I will have to give her a call tomorrow to wish her well. :(

    9 ft tables only for action... what would you do?

    I'd tell them that if they want the table they will have to buy the table from you. Maybe for $20 or so. If they are wanting to play that bad for money they should not have a problem shelling out $10/ea to you for that chance at each others money. What would piss me off is if I let them have...

    BOO to the irs

    Yeah I also just got my tax form from WesternBCA in the mail and its painful to know that Uncle Sam gets a chunk of that hard fought money. Last year they had the wrong town/state for me on the address but eventually it made it to me, after I had done my taxes already. The form should magically...
