I just have to play "this guy" some.

The guy who hits the ball as hard as he can every time
The guy who tells his friend that yesterday he "couldn't miss"
The guy wearing sun glasses while playing
The guy playing the F- player and bragging about every win
 
The guy who after everytime he chalks the cue up ... he SLAMS it on the table to get the "excess" chalk off.

The old time player that states he is better than you are JUST cause hes been playing since before you were born.

The player that runs around screaming cause you just scratched on the break and made the 8 ball cause he thought he won.
 
i dont care what anyone says about baby powder, if its humid you will see me using it, also pocket chalkers are a neccessity when room owners refuse to supply good chalk.

whoa whoa easy on the sunglasses. i'm not sayin i wear em while im playin but if its daylight and im hung over and back in a pool room - i might keep em on until the jameson's puts that rebellion down in my skull;)
 
my favorite

from a female's point of view I choose:

woofing, ball banging chauvinists


I have to smile to myself at the ones that break their cue over their knee and then leave - "well, I guess they don't want to play anymore". :D

I made my point even if they didn't "get it"
 
College

This one hooks me all the time. I really want to know what college they went to. Man, I could have gone to Harvard.lol;)
 
Watch out with number one.....

We all know the signs that are a dead giveaway for someone you just have to play. Here are a few for me. By the way, I often do these things so I am the "mark" also.

1. Any flourescent cue or case.

2. Rack twirlers.

3. Cuetech. Period.

4. Chalk holders.

5. Anyone louder than me.

6. Anyone that can drink with me and still hold a cue.

7. And lastly, anyone that asks what you are ranked.


As I mentioned earlier, I have also done every one of these things to create action. Let's hear some more.

I know a player with a flourescent cue that no one here would like to run into on a pool table.

John Schmidt, Danny Harriman, or Chris Bartrum would not want to play this guy?
Efren must have got a new cue sponsor!:smile:

Anyone who racks the balls then pushes the rack to the other side of the table
 
just about a said:

or how about someone who racks on the wrong side. ALL NIGHT!

Ive seen someone walk back and forth all night to get the rack from one side of the table to go and rack at the other end.
 
Man, I made the list on most everything. Guess I'll be in lots of action after I shoot a game or 2 to get warmed up.
 
Anyone who bridges in a V between their index and middle finger.
I just wanna scoop a q ball off the side of his head. Where do they learn to bridge like that?
And the sunglasses, well, the sun never goes down when yer cool I always say.

And railbirds. Why do people feel the need to lean on my table while they're watching their buddies play. I scooped a q ball off a girls butt once for doing that. She had a nice ass tho.

what about the little racking flash where you sit the 8ball on top of the 1st three balls and then slide the rack back quickly and it falls in right as you reach the proper spot... man that pisses me off LOL!

BTW what's the deal with the baby powder ingredients folks are mentioning? Is there something I should know?
 
The guy you meet outside of a poolroom, who says " you play pool? I play good too, but I can only play when I am drunk"


I love this one. I make the same offer everytime. I say "okay, tell you what, I will buy you as much alchohol that you require to feel really ready to play, and after that we will play for $50 a rack." Noboby has taken me up on it yet.:(


Or the guy who says " I play all the time, I never lose". Because he is the best D-- player among his 3 friends who can't run 3 balls with ball in hand ever. They have never even heard of sombody running out a rack.


Here is another one I love-

Anyone who says " I am gonna bounce the ball off the wall"

Anyone who can't run 4 balls with both hands insiting to play one handed.

Guys who look for every opportunity to play a shot behind their back.

Anyone who sets up the incredible 8 ball balanced on two object balls on the end rail trick shot, and asks if you can hit the 8 w/o touching the other two. AND ARE SHOCKED WHEN YOU ALREADY KNOW IT!

Almost as bad is the 4 in a row by the side pocket trick shot.

Anyone who scoops the cueball and is damn proud of that "jump shot"

Anyone who attempts to power draw the cueball on every shot, just to let you know thay can come close to doing it at least 40% of the time.

Anyone who has to use at least 2 tips of english on every shot, even the money ball


The guy who has to roll EVERY house cue in the place, and still changes it out after every other shot, looking for the "magic house cue"

Anyone who has to rerack an 8 ball rack 4 times and still can't seem to figure out a correct patteren

Anyone who racks 9 ball in numerical order

Anyone who takes the ball tray to the table and dumps over from 2 feet above the slate

anyone who tells you first the cost.. then Manufacturer of every single item in their case whether you asked or not..

the guy who has a high run of 1 ball offering me advice on every facet of the game.. and all of it is completely wrong..

and his cousin the guy who after watching me sink my ball, break out a difficult cluster, and leave a wide open runout.. and they roll their eyes .. and say... why didn't you just take the duck in the corner ?.. ( that happened to me tonight!!!)
 
Oddly enough I stay away from just about all of the types that are mentioned. When I shoot pool I want a challenge. I don't like playing people that I can beat all night. What good does that do me? I need someone that I can ride along with or someone that wins more sets than me. I guess the challenge appeals more to me.
