Im not sure of much anymore but i was there and that is what i was told. I left and George was a game up or so-I talked to Archie the next day and he told me "I got up 3 games and he quit".
He also bemoaned the whole crowd -that no one was coming to play him. "They're afraid they might win something". he said. Anyway, it is possible i was given some wrong info.

I thought he was up over 20 mil at Binions?bells said:
After a year, it was all gone.
Last time I saw Archie, he was playing $20 a game of one-pocket at HT.
There's a movie waiting for this guy.
And the last time i saw archie was at the LV cue club around the middle of may playing someone named OJ (Perhaps a local player ?) for a benj a rack getting the 6 and the 7. Went back and forth for 3 hours until eventually OJ couldn't fade archie's act anymore, as well as his play was going steadily downhill so he bailed, leaving archie several games winner. My buddies tried to goad me into jumping up, but even though I felt i had a chance giving him that spot, after hearing the stories about him (I heard his score was in the 30's large), i didn't think a stranger had a chance of getting down with him. Plus he's got more shark moves then all the JAWS movies combined with me being an out of towner and all...well let's just say the ladies of the LVCC this particular evening looked like the better bet.....at least from an enjoyment point of view.
