    Whatever happened to that Kristi Carter chick??

    I went ahead & messaged her on myspace, asking if she'll go out with me. I'll keep you all posted. I told her I was a 9-ball stud.:cool:

    Whatever happened to that Kristi Carter chick??

    I recall awhile back, her suddenly appearing here at this message board & chewing someone out (Jack Madden....or some guy who made cues).....then disappearing. I've never seen her post here since. The last I saw her, she was busy being one of Allison's groupies. I know this for a fact 'cause...

    I just watched "The Hustler"....

    for the 3rd time (I've watched it a couple of other times over the past few years). Great great movie......great acting......great story. I appreciate this film better with each viewing. The Color of Money is a decent movie also, but nothing like the original. "Vince" vs "Fast Eddie". No...

    I went 0-4 again in league last Wednesday...I guess we all have "off" nights?

    I went 0-4 again in league last Wednesday...I guess we all have "off" nights? I couldn't string together making more than 2 balls in a row. I'd make 1 decent shot, than miss on the next, sometimes terribly. I can think of alot of excuses: didn't practice much the previous week because of the...

    Billiard Sanctuary/Timothy White DVD's

    Sounds like this guy isn't real popular here. Regardless, is there much to be learned from the dvd's??? Or.....should I not bother watching anymore of them (I think I spent a total of 30 minutes watching the 1st one).

    Billiard Sanctuary/Timothy White DVD's

    Does anyone have an opinion of these DVD's? A teammate of mine from pool league lent them to me....I think there's about 9 DVD's. I watched the first one today....touched on the basics....but Timothy White's teaching method seemed pretty clear.....he seems to be a pretty good player as well...

    How many hours/week do you practice?

    I've asked this question here awhile back, but wanted to ask it again to refresh my memory & compare to other players. I'm in a BCA league, was ranked #3 earlier this season, but have slipped down to #34.:( My record is padded against easier teams, but find I am doing poorly against the...

    Scott Lee lessons

    I took a lesson from Scott. This shyster tried to "hustle" me, then slid out the back door with my $1000 cue stick. Just kidding!! He pointed out some "subtle" things in my stroke, approach to the table, & hand position. I'd definitely take another lesson from him with no hesitation....in...

    Lord help me, I struggle at position play....

    Actually I'm not that bad......but I am screwing myself in pool league, because of poor position play. (I tend to focus on shotmaking). But I'm realizing that the biggest weakness in my game is position play, & will not be a top player unless I get it under control. I watched a Robert Byrne...

    I hate pool! (long)

    I know exactly how you feel....I've been there many times! I've also watched videos, read books, practiced for hours....& still play crappy at times. I think pool takes many years to get good at. I went 0-4 in league last week (against the #1 team). Then last night, I looked at my player...

    Turning over a new leaf w/my attitude in pool league...

    Update: I worked on being relaxed & focused last Wed. against the #1 team. I went 0-4. :( But I shrugged off the losses, & was pleased at how I tuned things out around me (didn't worry much about the other team watching & analyzing me). These guys were damn good.....plus, I screwed myself...

    I had my heart ripped out in league last night...

    Maybe that wasn't cool of me to throw that guys name out like that. Then again, Billings, MT is nowhere USA. Doubt anyone knows the guy. (since then have removed the idiots name)

    I had my heart ripped out in league last night...

    nah, it actually wasn't that bad. I went 0-4 against the #1 team....all of these guys were in there late 40's-50's, have been playing for years & years. The rest of my team struggled mightily as well. I actually shot relaxed & focused....was making good shots, but killed myself with poor...

    Turning over a new leaf w/my attitude in pool league...

    I'll probably just try to find a happy medium with everything. If I'm too serious & wanting win badly (or worry about losing)...not good. If I'm too relaxed (drunk) & social, can be bad also. How about: serious & focused while playing a match, yet still relaxed. I have found that the...

    Turning over a new leaf w/my attitude in pool league...

    I decided I need to turn over a new leaf in pool league, starting this Wednesday: I'm going to focus on being more relaxed, not so serious, & enjoy being around friends. I am doing pretty good this year....but have had a few rough weeks recently (slipped from #3 to #15 in player rankings) I...

    "Pool vacation" in Colorado....

    Can someone turn me on to some hot spots in Colorado (Denver area) to shoot pool at? I'm on vacation from Christmas - New Years, & am thinking about hitting the road, shooting lots of pool & having some fun. I live in boring old Montana (miles from nowhere)...so Denver area is the logical...

    SVB - Do you know where Shane is

    I'm in Billings, it'd have been nice to go watch him play. Too cold to travel anywhere for me. I did get to watch Jeff Boucher play a little at a tournament here last year. This guy is pretty damn good, wins alot of tourneys here in the state.

    The pool scene after "Color of Money" came out...

    I've always heard about how the pool scene boomed after "The Hustler" & "Color of Money" came out. Anyone here remember those times, or were part of the scene?? (I was in high school when COM came out, didn't play pool back then). Must of been the good ol' days, wish I could have experienced...
