Best Cities for One Pocket

[1pocketguru]

What are the best cities for one pocket besides Chicago, New Orleans, Las Vegas, Los Angeles/Sacramento, and Louisville?
I'm looking for hidden gems that aren't obvious.

Chicago, Red Shoes in Alsip
Straight Pool, Banks and One Pocket.
A real pool room.

Come to Cue Bar in Queens New York, then ask for the one pocket players.

Then they go to Raxx. If you want hidden gems, you have to go to the diamond dealers first.

I think Cue Bar is the same location the famous Gene Nagy operated out of. It was before my time so I am hypothesizing on the history of billiard room ownership and house pro transitions. Jeanette Lee and Gene Nagy and several other top ambassadors for the sport are from New York City, specifically Queens. I also support New Jersey and the Tri State area.

As a Queens resident growing I never knew who people from my neighborhood are. There are a ton of private places to play in NYC. Playing in a private residence gambling and having dancers over is what is so amazing. Those are the stories in the books written by the pool playing hustlers, not the pool "pros".

The question is are you a gentleman or lady and how much can you afford to lose?

Florida and Arizona are full of retirees and most likely one pocket

Truth!

Plenty of one hole down here.

You can usually find action for as little or as much as you would like.

We play a lot of one pocket in the Denver,Co area.
I remember many years ago we called one pocket Each(we each have a pocket) or pocket a piece.

So we go to cue bar, though they go to raxx. Sounds about right from you.

And what books are you referring to? We read pool books and I have never read such tales.

Dear Mr Fantasyland...

 

[Texas Carom Club]

Houston
Hustlers out the wazzo
And several big money sets played in the beginning of the year 30 large one of ‘em

 

[jtompilot]

Houston for sure. There’s three rooms in the Phoenix area that have 1P action. Plenty of rooms all over Florida. St. Louis.

Dear Mr Fantasyland...

Grounded by lack of effort, merit and reading:

Do you want the Facebook links? I know players at different gambling levels.

They are very accessible streaming live or responding to messages.

You can find action. Do not say who sent you.

The only book worth reading is in Skyline Billiards, its signed and dedicated to Jenn. Those are the books with magical powers and should be read in the libraries that host them.

Sadly Skyline's library is a small nook in a cranny.

Digital pool library system. AZB serves well in that unofficial role. However it is not set up in the standard library science format.

I dunno...I haven't been in a pool room in a long time.

I could be convinced ..

Was the answer to what book contains the tales you claimed in that bowl-full of text?
