Well. pool has reached a new level now! 
After chatting with a few folks, the governor and the president walked over to a pool table. They set their beers down on a nearby table and geared up for a game. Obama and Hickenlooper got off to a slow start, pushing the balls around without much success. Obama played solids and Hickenlooper was stripes.
"You didn't leave me a thing," Obama said after a Hickenlooper shot. Obama missed another shot and said, "All right. It helped you more than it helped me."
Hickenlooper, in a blue button-down shirt and gray pants, joked, "Let's get the press out of here."
But soon, Obama built some momentum, sinking a couple shots. Another patron offered to buy him a beer. "It's too late man. I just got one," Obama said. "I'll come shake your hand."
Obama took only a couple sips of beer in the presence of the pool, and an appetizer delivered by a waiter sat untouched.
As the pool started to leave, Obama suddenly got hot, sinking multiple shots and winning the game. "Did you record that?" Obama asked the pool.
"I take a little longer to warm up," Hickenlooper said.
Obama asked the pool to take note of how many balls Hickenlooper still had on the table. "Five," he said. "Five."
