If what the original poster said is true, why don't the players just sit on the checks? Checks are good for something like 6 months, and I believe everyone is supposed to be paid their 33% in under 6 months, so just put the checks under your mattress until you have all three of them and just...

I once saw a guy win 40,000 betting football and turn around and lose 50,000+ the next weekend. He didn't even have the original 40 that he won, I don't know what he did with it. He was betting with a bookie through a third party so needless to say both of them were in bad shape. One of the guys...

Well put SJM. I included too many people when I over generalized my original post. All I can say is that the post in no way was meant to be disrespectful to anyone even though it may have sounded that way.

I don't post here much and I don't look at this site much mostly because of all the flame wars you have to go through to get to or see something interesting. Back in the day, which wasn't that long ago for me but I lurked for a long time, you could come on here and get an action report, see...

In my humble opinion the foul shot is the last option here unless you foul down to the end rail. I you just play up behind one of the balls it leaves you open to the same shot right back at you. Depending on if you are playing three fouls or not you could get on two and then end up having to...

You could bank the 1 ball 1 rail straight back, I believe that is the one ball that is just off of the top rail (the blue ball), and just float the cue to where you did when you shot it or up to the end rail. The second shot would be to bank that same ball, the ball on the top rail, three rails...

I think a lot of players want to play one pocket to cut down on their "work" load. In nine ball you play for hours get a few games/sets up and a someone starts getting the rolls and next thing you know you are back even. Personally I would rather play one pocket and try and beat them by out...

All the dings in the shaft are an integral part to getting the feel of the cue. :) Just like lining up the shot with the bend towards the table or away from the table depending on what you are doing.

Buy an Axiom. They cost about $45 but it is a jump break and it hits about as good as any sneaky pete cue I have played with both custom and production.

I think personal cues are truly over rated. Some of the best pool that I have ever played was with a house cue and some of the best hustlers I have ever seen played with a house cue that most on the forum would just laugh at. Someone mentioned that Bugs played his best with just about anything...

Those are my favorite people to play. I have a tendency to lay off some people for one reason or another,especially if they play a lot and are trying to improve. But if someone tries to call me a cheat or anything of the sorts I pull out all the stops. Just torture him every time you play him...

My cues never leave the car except when I play. I don't know how hot the inside of the car is but ranges from 0 to 100 on the outside. The only problems I have ever have happen in the winter, the cue is warped when you first bring it in out of the cold but in a few minutes it's as straight as a...

I think that anyone who watches ESPN more than one hour, and actually plays poker at least once a month, calls themselves a semi-professional poker player. I am always amazed at the amount of semi-professional broke people at the pool room.

hehe I'm a 22 year old college student.

Should have read..........I would just like to thank everyone for the imaginary PM's that you sent me in the parallel universe thanking me for filling the board with worthless crap because honestly I need the attention, both imaginary and real.

Probably won't even be a pay site. hehe

Are you joking? Most threads are filled with crap and a lot of the time it is her who starts the crap right in the middle of a decent thread. If you look at her profile she has over 700 posts that have nothing to do with pool. Unless you count using pool related equipment for well...

People like you make me want to never read the forum again. I have spent enough time around pool players and women in the pool hall and know that they are all talk. The few times that I even sit down to read the forum anymore you have most certainly been there typing your words; filling threads...

Look how much time you spend on the forum filling all the threads with worthless crap. I think you are an attention deprived idiot.

This is why pool is going nowhere fast and nobody is making any money along the way. With all the time that has been spent talking about who is going to play, for how much, where they are going to play, what cloth, and the compostion of the balls, along with humidity you should have went out and...
