Once One Pocket bug bites, your hooked.

Sadly few tournaments where I live, use to have monthly one at Bull Shooters, but entry fees was to high.

this reminds me of an idea to collate/edit "the best of azb" into an actual book

Or maybe an AzB "FAQ" like Bob Jewett used to maintain for the old usenet pool group Rec.Sport.Billiard.

Bob? Bob? Bueller?

Vague... I don't know, You know that I'm trying to put together a book of reading for Nonpool player viewers to Help bring viewing. Understandings of all pool related games. This is my way to help the pool Sport and try not to hurt the viewer audience, I'm not highly educated and trying to do the best that I can... My wording may be simple, But I'm hoping we need some simple... I'm an old man dieing of a lung disease but I have an end time drive to try and help the sport that I love any way that I can... Guy ,

Perhaps you should visit

Why can't I get forum members to give me information on selling viewing to the public on one pocket?
In writing I need all the info that I can get from one pocket players... To advise viewers of one pocket game for the enjoyment of watching... Guy

Hi Guy,

Have you been to
www.onepocket.org ?

Like Jay said:
Watching expert players with commentary may help you recognize some of the finer points ofthe game.

 

[Fatboy]

He’s 80 and never played one pocket? How can that be?

He just starting out, he will get a rack or 2 in.

Guilty. Guy.. I apologize for some of my uncalled for postings. I can be an asshole but hopefully not malicious. Good luck with your writings. Express yourself. As for 1p. It is a puzzle. It never gets mastered. It brings out creative shot making. It opens the mind. Concentrate or sink. Me.. I enjoy playing a high lever player. I’m not supposed to win. I put up a battle until I lose control.

You have my respect

Fatboy Approved

99% of non-pool players don't enjoy watching ANY pool. This is why cornhole is on ESPN and pool isn't.
Pool is one of those specialized games/sports that can only be fully appreciated by players imo.

Cornhole players are only a small percentage competitive.

More are competing, playing, as they empty Beer bottles, and pitchers.

CORNHOLE is nothing more then a gss as me know as Bean Bag Tossing. Sucessful Lt reinventing an old game.

Yes. It's a simple game to watch and play. For simple folks. And there are a TON of them lol. Horseshoes and bowling fans.

Make fun of but the Top players get big bucks, real world sponsors, pay to be involved.

Bowling is like Pool, can’t make decent living off of following circuit.

I'm not making fun of simple games lol. I'm just explaining why they're more popular than pool (to watch as a spectator).

My point if Pool was something sponsor could reap reward off of. They would do like Sponsors do with NASCAR,

NASCAR is good old boy driving on circular track at high speeds. Boring to me, but not to people who love NASCAR.

I wanted each members opinion of viewing a one pocket game to try and to write their view into a book... Only to try and create a screen for nonpool player viewers to enjoy watching... Just the opinions of each individual AZb members, As they see, observe the game... It's hard to put together writings with members opinions, But this is what I want to do... Guy

This we need to change, We need to change... If 1p is going to be put on the world stage then it's going to bring in viewers, In my book I'm trying to convey this through the opinions of AZb members... Not to learn the game for players, But to sell the game through players for viewers, This can be done... I've just got to be smart enough to get my understanding through to other members... Guy

[fan-tum]

There is more information on all pool games than you could possibly become familiar with in one lifetime.

Just go write what youre writing.

......Horatio?

You are not a good communicator and you are ever bit as tom-worthy of Azb posting as the rest of us.
