BB Means Bar Box Again On AZ

I agree that we shouldn't be gloating over any pool entity's demise but I always believe that when one door closes another opens.

I think with the exodus of the pool players from Vegas there will be a short-lived vacuum and given time, the players will rise up from the ashes to be re-born once more like the Phoenix of legend.

Phoenix was great back 20 years ago, from 91-93 I'd go there pick off the 6's 7's 8's and a few soft 9's for $20-$500 each. Made $$$ every trip(never once did I not make $$ there) the guys had gamble and would step into a game with out knowing if they had the best or worst of it, i respected that. I did lose $$ in some games, but i was in action with 1-4 people a day. There was games everywhere. So when i say i never lost i mean for the whole trip. i'd stay at a good friends house, was always a good time. Golden 8 Ball when David Lee owned it, after it moved. Was there in 88 before it moved, once-broke even(i didnt find a game was just passing thru):smile:

I really liked the pool scene there then, John Showman was there back then as well. It was a good time. Good action and not many nits, I'm not revising history, it was that good for a guy my speed back then, i was a high 8 or a low 9. I play a bit better now when i'm in stroke, I think that I played just bad enough to get in a game and just good enough to win. I wasnt stealing 80% of the time, I'd say 20% of the action I just went thru the motions and gave my customer a good time. the rest of the time I had to play to win or i'd get out played. Tommys in Mesa was good too-but kinda smoky and not as much action. Kolbys just opened when I was on my last trip to Phoenix to play.

those are my Phoenix stories in the BB thread, the what the hell is BB thread. LOL

shit I REALLY dogged it again, I'm getting old and sloppy. I only been playing 5 years with a 8pt Boar. :sorry::sorry:


Its a bit fancy for me as a player(i prefer a simpler cue as a player) problem is this cue works so well for me I cant retire it. The lizzard skin wrap has a nice feel its not shiny anymore I have about 2400 hours on it now.


old and sloppy,

This sounds like the IPT scam all over again, did Kevin Trudeau have anything to do with this?

while it was surely a boondoggle, it was not a scam- KT lost millions.

i remember people saying his 'match library' was worth millions and the website was hauling in $$ big time. ahahahahaha

LOL I dogged it again, i missed that one too, they are my peer's:eek: I let my people down.


I think we need to compile a BB list, and see just how long it could be. Funny how the internet draws out these kind of thoughts.:)
