For real... you guys take your "performance enhancers" and ill outperform your enhancements without them.
You think so?
If so then you haven't been around pool much, at least not any gambling on pool.
If you ever have to play a guy that's got his mix right and he is playing over his head you'll understand.
Those of us who have been around have all had to go up against guys who were high on coke, speed, pain pills, meth, etc... who played LIGHTS OUT while up.
IF you can outlast it until they are coming down then you can win. If you and the other guy were about even players without any "help" then you will likely get creamed if your opponent has taken something to help him focus.
One time in the pool room someone gave me a pill. I don't know what it was and it made my knees feel like they had pins in them. But I gave a good player the 6 out for $50 in a race to nine and the race to nine was over in 15 minutes.
I ran out from EVERYWHERE. I made every kick, bank, tough cut etc. I made the spot look ridiculous. I asked him if he wanted to play another set and he declined and I offered the FOUR out and he STILL declined.
I would NEVER take another pill like that again where I didn't know what was in it. Because although I played like god for 30 minutes I felt totally out of control and a little scared at what my body felt like.
So I understand that when someone goes to the bathroom and comes out and they are suddenly slicing in 100 degree shots like they are hangers.
This is a very real thing in pool and other sports. It's called performance enhancing because that's exactly what happens.
Call me back next time a guy snaps you off for $1500 while taking ten trips to the bathroom while doing it.
I once beat a guy out of $1200 because I imposed a ONE TIME bathroom break during the set rule. He couldn't get his fix every ten minutes and I beat him.
Previously I had tolerated his activity and sometimes I won and sometimes I didn't but every time fading the chemical breaks and resulting swings played on my mind.
