Old guys wearing suspenders don't scare me in the least. But, if they're wearing suspenders...and a belt... ....I run for the hills.

Maybe I misunderstood your question. I thought you asked about the best pool instruction...not how to run your life. In my opinion, Mark Wilson, in St Louis is the best.

I don't understand the constant chatter about Earl. It seems as though there's a simple solution to this problem. If you like to watch Earl play,then watch him!!! If you hate Earl and can't stand to watch him, then don't watch him!!! Or change the channel!!! Maybe someone can explain what they...

I heard a so-so player ask a champion what advice he might give him about what to do when he gets in a slump. The champion said, " go get more money."

One of my favorite Accu-Stats quotes was from Howard Vickery. ( Not my favorite commentator ) The players had taken a break and the cameraman was scanning the crowd and Billy and Howard were pointing out various players, girl friends, minor celebrities, etc. in the stands. Howard made him back...

Scott You're right on the money. I was in Blackbirds a couple weeks ago and it's as nice a pool room as I've seen in a while. In addition, I got a little action. Nice people there! Smurf

Any info on players and/or winner in tournament in Jackson, at the Garage?

Could someone please give me an idea of the value of 25 or 30 year old issues of Billiard Digest, Pool and Billiard, and Billiard News. Also, I have 10 issues of " On The Snap " magazine. Thanks for your assistance.

Has anyone heard of Horne Cues?

About thirty years ago, I was scuffling around with a pretty good player from NY.We were in Bloomington Ill. at an all night joint owned by a bookie named Benny Paul. The bartender there played pretty good and Benny staked him.But there were also lots of suckers in the joint. There were four...

Buddy Halls' opinion On an accu-stats video where Buddy was doing the commentary,one of the playersis playing poorly. Buddy said to his co-host, Did you ever get to doggin' it so bad that you just totally forgot how to play? Boy I sure have." Made me feel much better about my own lapses...

Anybody out there know the value of " Rags to Rifleman",in average condition????

Thanks Opie....I was beginning to believe pool was illegal in Arkansas

I didn't get any response to my plea for info about pool activity in the El Dorado, Arkansas area....so just any generic info about the state would be greatly appreciated. I'm just a league player, so I like eight-ball,but do play nine-ball now and then. Thanks for any assistance you might...

I'm going to be in El Dorado, Arkansas for about a week. Does anyone out there know of any cheap action in that area? Maybe Pine Bluff, Texarkana,Hot Springs, Camden.... These are towns that seem ( on the map) to be within easy driving distance.

how about El Dorado and Hot Springs???

What's the most consecutive nine-balls on the break that you all have seen or heard of ????

Maybe it's just me, but I don't see the main forum as a place for mass solicitations of pool action. It's just you.....

This statement is perfectly clear. Purdman said..ANYTIME!!! A COUPLE THOUSAND...not 25 a rack. To make a clear, unambiguous, statement like that and then to badmouth the recipient of the statement as being the bad guy is an unbelievable example of nittiness. We'd all respect Purdman much more...

Knockers After spending years on the road I can say that without a doubt the most hated denizen of pool rooms across the country is " THE KNOCKER " You can ignore nits but knockers will ruin a game any time they get the opportunity. I've always thought it's because they want to be " smart...
