How do you play pool when your nose won't stop running?

first you shove cotton in your nose... and lose........ then you raise the bet.... take the cotton out... and get snot all over the rails...

pocket money... find next pool hall...
 
Id leave the coke alone, that might help:p j/k

I carry a hankercheif and if its alleriges I take a zyrtec if its a cold I pop an advil cold and sinus. And blow often.
 
I know quite a few players you could ask. I don't think I should list their names for obvious reasons.

Stop sniffling. The snot is trying to come out. Quit trying to hold it in.

Get a Kleenex and blow your nose. Repeat as neccesary.

Problem solved.

If it was as simple as that do you really think I'd be asking. yesterday my nose was running so bad I could have filled a bathtub. Not only that I'd have suprise attacks where it would drip with no warning. (you know where your nose gets ticklish and tells you there's something coming down the drain)
 
One moment your telling me to be serious. The next moment your telling me that you could have filled a bathtub with your snot. Which way do you want the conversation to go? If you could seriously fill a bathtub with your snot, you need medical help that we couldn't possibly provide.

Keep drinking water and keep blowing your nose. Carry tissue with you for the suprise attacks.

Do not sniff it back in. Ever.

Ever heard of pool gloves?:D
Make sure the pair you use have highly absorbent backs.

The other alternative:
Put finger to the side of one nostril
Turn head
Blow
Repeat for the other nostril

Ignore complaints from barefoot players like Fatboy

Amazing, I thought I was the only one who had this problem. I've only struggled with it for 30 or 40 years. One thing though, when my nose was running I was usually playing pretty good. I just had to keep wiping it off.

I really think I'm allergic to chalk. It gets on my fingers, then close to my nose.

Maybe a surgeon's mask would help?
