I don't know about Jay,but I was a pretty bad role model for the type of pool you like
I once played Harry Platis at the world 9 ball championship in Reno
It was the finals of the 9 ball thing and 6 spectators watched them
Over 500 people crowded around our table to see 2 not so good players lock horns for $1000
pr game,Harry gave me 8 to 6
Ernie(Gina Cue) held the money.Keith,Buddy,Nick,Jack ,Ronnie and several otherslike Flyboy,Mottey,Terry Romine etc
I can not remember everybody who was sweating our game,not the 9 ball world championship
At that time I knew that these tournaments would never make it big,the play is dull,the seating is too far,
and it just isn't interesting unless you have a bet on it
Sorry,but I didn't watch a complete set in 3 days,I have been to several other championships and
every one was a repeat,I never watched a complete set and found others doing the same thing
I would spend hours talking about pool and trying to position myself to play and so did most of the
competitors in the tournaments
In Vegas ,the tournament drew people to the gaames ,but we matched up and went to Mary's place to gamble
these guys are not really well known outside of a few here and there groupies, and I doubt that most of them go to see them
I could never see the point in arguing if Robo could beat SVB
One pocket is interesting,at least to me,but without Efren ,there are no heroes out there.
I think even the groupies have to admire him for who he was. I really admired him,still do
I don't want to fly under a false flag,I did work and still own a real business,,I am a citizen
but when it came to playing pool,Hoist the jolly roger and jack the bet or
don't invite me over
