One night, it was Efren, Corey, and Mika playing a game to 10 points. Actually, it was early one morning, probably around 3:00 a.m. I walked it about midway through the game. It was interesting to see each of their styles when applied to the game of billiards.
Mika used to go to CaromCafe quite often when Sang Lee was around. They played 80-30 a few times. Sang Lee would explained things along the way. Other friends have also taught him a bit. So he does know the game a little.
Before the 3 way game, Corey was warming up with Mika for quite a while. To my observation Corey has the ability to learn very quickly. When first asked he actually wanted to bet on the 3 way 10 pt game, but we thought it was too complicated for the late night. So they settled to play for "bragging rights".
I would say Efren is very creative that he tried a lot of unusual shots and claimed he doesn't know how to play. Maybe he was waiting for Corey to bet.
Many thanks to Dennis in helping this thing happened. Corey and Efren were using Dieckman cues (great hitting cues). Mika was using my own Japanese Helmstetter double-joint Sang Lee cue. (one out of four, which will be put away for archival as soon as my Dieckman arrives.....
Everyone had great little fun.
