Sorry, I guess I’m a pool enthusiast, I can’t limit my answer to just a few.
....I could probably list a couple hundred players I like to watch play.
So I’ll just mention a few over the years that haven’t showed in this thread.
Cowboy Jimmy Moore....what he could d with a cue ball was fascinating.
George Chenier, undefeated North American snooker champion...a master...
...at one time he held the high run in the world snooker and 14.1 championships.
The White Hope, Vern Elliot, you needed some experience to see that a great player
was concealing a world class skill.
A young man in some small town in Arkansas, stroked as sweet as the Miz...1985
...I wanted to take him on the road but he’d gotten married and had just become a father.
If pool produced the financial security that golf does, I’ve seen a bunch of players that
had the potential to become household names...but they went on to other things.
