The thing about Fargo, is that it does not matter how long of a break you have taken from the game, your Fargo remains the same, until you have competed again, in a Fargo event. And, I am not sure, but Johnny may only be competing in bar table tournaments, in recent times. I see that he is...

I do not think it was really a threat though. He stated that if it ever happened again, then he would slap the guy. And, yeah, I think that words are just words, until they become real violence. Maybe the kid deserves to get slapped though, if he was trying to shark Johnny. I do not think it...

Really great points. I once lost a custom cue that I really loved, at age 15, because the guy who was staking me (who was my doubles partner), decided that he was not going to pay for my end of the bet, so I had to give up my cue, because I did not have the cash to pay. Point being, even at age...

For one thing, the so called kid is NOT a kid. He is 19. Old enough, that he should have learned the right way to treat others, by now. And, for another thing, he stated that if the so called kid ever pulled that Sharking shit on him in the future, that he would slap him. They are just words...

Wow, that was amazing.

Okay, I understand. I just read that there was going to be a joint venture with a Chinese cue maker, and then the Chinese stole the name from the owner of the Thai cue company. So, sounds like the name is being used without authorization from the owner, from Thailand. Interesting.

O'Min from China makes pool cues, not Snooker cues. I believe that it a completely different O'Min, but I thought they looked nice, on the Seyberts website.

How would you feel if you were being sharked, during a big money match? Also, I would not consider a 19 year old a kid. 19 is an adult, and old enough to know how to respect people. Sharking is really messed up, in my opinion.

Nice to know. Thanks.

Please forgive me for asking in the main forum. I see there is a Snooker section on here, but I am not sure how busy that section is. Anyways, I am curious if anyone here might know any info about these cues. There is a 10 foot snooker table here in town, so I thought it would be cool to get...

I like the term, "treat your fellow man, the same way that you would want to be treated, by your fellow man". With the same level of respect, among other things.

One without a job, maybe..

I went to a BCA Qualifier, for the junior nationals as a kid, and in their letter, it stated that Pro's were not allowed to play. Sav took 2nd in the US Open, and she is not a Pro? That was not Juniors only tournament. Many female Pros played in it.

I am kind of surprised they allow her to play in the juniors. The Juniors are not supposed to be for Pro's.

I remember reading that Mike Sigel was a really great player too, as a teen.

Yeah, but I am just curious about American players. All the Euro and Asian players would be a really long, never ending list, lol. I know how strong Filler played, at like 13, lol.

Just out of curiosity, who is / was the greatest (most naturally talented, fearless, skilled) Junior player you ever seen? I know this has probably been discussed in the past. The guys from my era (who I knew of, and heard about, but some I never got to see) were guys like, Shane McMinn...

I need a dictionary for a few of those words, but just too lazy to look them up. So, will just remain confused. Seriously though, do players really look at the cue ball last?

Oh, he looks at the cue ball last? That is really surprising. Interesting. I always heard that it is best to look at the object ball last.

I heard a pretty cool story once, from this really cool old timer I knew, named Eddie. He said that he worked at a pool hall back in the 80's, in Chicago, iirc. He told me that Efren walked in one day, got a set of balls, and broke and ran 3 racks of 15 ball rotation. Thought that sounded really...
