... Jimmy Rempe - 23? Tournaments in a row won i believe (some one help me on this one) ...

I don't know where you heard this, but I would question this claim. Surely not 23 pro events in a row. When Varner won about half the pro events in 1989, that was spoken of as about the best year anyone ever had (at least in fairly recent times).

I checked Wiki (not that Wiki is reliable!), and the number 23 was used twice regarding Rempe:

"He accumulated 23 tournament wins between 1972 and 1978, more than any other pool player in the world, thus acquiring the nickname "King James".

In September 1975, Rempe went on a 23-stop tour in Australia where he defeated World Snooker Champion Eddie Charlton in nine-ball, rotation, and straight pool."​

So ............ anyone know any more about the claim regarding consecutive tournament wins by Rempe?

Why doesn't someone just ask Rempe?

I wish more of the most famous pros were here on AZ .... it would be like celebs on twitter, only with real human beings with actual talent.
