Cues

[Jack Madden]

Keith
Check out my updated site - new cue pictures. Some of the cues were at the Hopkins. Did you ever think when we played on the west coast that 25-30 years later we would both still be at it ---- you would still be playing jam up and I would be making cues - both still hustlin. Anyway, I think you will enjoy the pictures.

Jack, thanks for the link. It was good seeing you in Valley Forge. I wish I had had more time to talk. Those were the good old days 25 years ago. We sure did have fun!

I remember a couple of close matches that you and I had, and I think you beat me a few times, too. Remember the Golden Cue Billiards? It was like 130 degrees in the joint. I happened to win it, and I think you came third, and I beat Larry Hubbard in the finals. I think it was in '79, and first place paid out $3,000, $2,000 for second, and $1,000 for third. It's always nice to hear from you, and I look forward to seeing you again sometime soon.

Your friend,
Keith

Keith, I just want you to know that I really enjoy reading your insights into the game. Your able to bring things to the table that the fine younger players can't a lot of the time, character. We all know about "The Color of Money" and the "playing off the rail" book. After reading that book about 6 or so years ago I was really interested in seeing you play. Since then I have had the priveledge a few times either live or via accu-stats. I will say you have ALWAYS been well worth the price of admission. It was a real treat to have you at the room I play at (Hagerstown) back in April for Planet Pool. My business keeps me busy so I was only able to catch your later matches in that event. Too bad you and JAM couldn't make it last weekend. I hear Ryan McCreesh is in Hagerstown now. That should be good for the room. We need an excellent young player like that around since Mike left. Well, I'll be looking for that book. Hopefully I'll be able to get my copy autographed Best of luck to ya sir and thanks again to JAM for plugging our tournement on the forum last week.

I had a good time at Hagerstown playing in the tournament. I was in Richmond when you guys had the next tournament. Otherwise, I would have been there for sure. I read that it was good finish. Looking forward to seeing at the next Hagerstown tournament. Thanks for your kind words.
