SVB 185 Mika 115 With Shane at the table Shane wins 200 - 115

Is my Cue. I don't have all the information on it because I didn't buy it brand new, but from another person who's husband had passed away. I'm probably going to lose money on the deal because when the woman shipped the cue, she sent it in a gigantic box (think golf club bag sized) for...

That's not entirely accurate. Rick is a prety classy guy and used to always take time to help people out. What happened was unfortunate, but it happened. Rick Molineiro, yes. I don't think you can smoke anywhere in Maryland anymore - I think only your house. I hear that if you try to smoke...

He had an accident at work a few years back that really damaged his shoulder and wasn't able to play pool at all, or at least not at the level that he was at. I haven't seen him in quite a while but I guess he's trying to start playing again.

That's just what Jerry does.

Doug is a great guy. He was giving some lessons out of his house at a pool hall in Arnold (near Annapolis) early on Saturdays, but I don't know if he still does that or not.

It's just south of the Hollywood Boulevard/441 intersection, in the shopping center behind Denny's. Yes, it's open 24/7. Yes, there's big action there pretty much every single night (except maybe Friday and Saturday), for every game out there.

Learning is not playing against someone who is at the same level as you, learning is playing someone who is better than you. Not only that, the person better than you has to actually be trying to win. Hmm... how do we make it so that the better player tries to win... if only there was some way...

In what ended up as the last match of the day (Zion was in the hot seat, but simply settled for 2nd place since top 2 spots were a qualifier and he had to drive back to New York), Ed deska took a foul in the first rack to go down 0 to -1. Ryan ran 100 to win.

I'm also in the middle of a transaction with Eric, and he's been nothing but helpful and fair in his dealings with me. I look forward to completing my transaction and hopefully engage in a few more in the future. Class guy.

It was pretty exciting, too. The last few games I watched, one person would be up about 25 or 26 points going into the colors, just to have the other guy scoop up the last 27 points to win by 1 or 2 points! Some nice runs by both players, too, it was defiantely worth it to watch!

Soo... one guy has to make all 9 balls to win, the other guy had to make the lowest number ball 20 times to win? What if the guy shot a combo, does that not count, but he keeps his turn?

Hey Keith (or JAM if she's reading this), rumor has it that you're gonna be playing with Slivka this Tuesday evening out in Laurel... Is that game still going on? Also, I hear Pooky is giving Danny Green the last two for a few thousand this weekend, who do you like in that game?

I think Planet-Pool will be having 8-Ball tourneys starting next year sometime, but they don't have dates or anything like that (Maryland-Va-DC area). I would just check out their website from time to time in case anything makes it on there. www.planet-pool.com

They have a BCA League at Champion Billiards in Rockville on Monday night. I'm not sure when a new session starts up, or if Keith would even be allowed to play, but it can't hurt to ask.

What is the 5th cue from the left? Is that also a Scruggs?

An amatuer won the year before that as well, but he caught a run of cards that people dream of. Last year Moneymaker got lucky he wasn't called on that bluff, otherwise Farha would have had him about 3 to 1 in chip counts, and would have busted him. Raymer made (in my opinion) a number of...

I just saw this thread... Have all 12 been ordered by now?

because this year the World Champion of pool recieved $80,000 or something. the World Champion of poker recieved $5 million. Seems like a no-brainer to me.

You don't even have to have a friend. I know people that have both DSL and Cable Internet, so of course their IP's are different. All they have to do is play on the desktop and a laptop and they're good to go. The sites tell you that they're totally secure, but you can't really be 100% sure...
