the [insert name of diety here] came down to you and said, that he would give you the ability to play one game of billiards better than anyone in the world, what game would you choose?

Before making your decision, note that, all of your other games would suffer.

Since there's decent money in Snooker, that's what I would have to choose.
 
snooker and/or 3C..

they are civilized games treated in a civilized manner. tradition is upheld and handed down. there is respect for the games.

argh!! Guess I should've thought of that before I voted for 1p.... :(

<-- would die a great one pocket player with a little jingle in his pocket while zeeder made mad bank...
 
Think of the cash you could make in one trip. Step up at DCC, play Efren getting a spot, then even, then offering a spot at one-pocket. A good gambler would be counting the cash for quite a while.
Snooker offers a good career. But I'd rather not be a professional billiards player anyway.

Yup, that's what I was thinking.. Would be a very lucrative road trip!
 
Sorry guys, I would have to say nine ball. That is where the money and the fame is and I could stay in the states for the most part, and I just love the game. period.

I voted before reading the thread and thought it meant what am I most proficient at, NOT what I would like to be best at.

Zeeder got it right. Snooker is the way to go. Even though you'd have to eat that crappy British food living over there. :( :p
 
I have absolutely no ambition to make money playing pool. With that said, I choose 9 ball. I would much rather have picked 8-ball...being I really like that game, but I suck at 9 ball and it seems that every tourney out there is a 9 ball tourney...so I may as well join the bandwagon huh? And I don't ask to be the best...just not a two and out sucker.

EDIT ** Well 9 ball isn't even a choice (dumb blondes :rolleyes: ) so I pick 8-ball.

Oh my god!!! Thats like an Englishman saying he wouldn't want to move to Miami because he would have to suffer the shitty weather LOL!

I have 8 check ups for heart disease pencilled in for when I get back to blighty after a couple of months in the states! :D

Do you know what a rotation game is?

I'll assume you are talking to me.....

...yes, and the key word here is ANY. Now I said 9-ball, but if it is ANY rotation game then I could be proficient at 6 ball, 10 ball, 15 ball...whatever... and still end up sucking at 9 ball.

The rules are I get to chose ONE game...not a type of game. If that is the case then I chose ANY pocket billiards.

Just going by your red edit** line.
 
Nine Ball

I personally would choose NINE BALL, as I would be the FAT OLD BALD GUY, who everyone was talking about.

I would have all my expenses paid, live like a King, get lots of freebees, and be followed every where I went by HOT CHICKS seeking my Autograph....

Nine Ball is the Game you see on T.V. :D :cool: :D :cool:

Gettin' close to lunch. Gotta head to the Waffle House . . . . . :rolleyes: :D

Waffle House...? You drunk already?
 
If I was King of the world???

For Nostalgia and true Billiard Enthusiasm I'd say 14:1, when I watch it played by great players I'm in awe...now for the reality of Pool today, 9-BALL, love it hate it, it's the King of The Hill for Tournament play today, so If G-D were to answer my Pool dreams, I would be the King of 9-BALL! :D
 
Leave the Waffle House alone.
It is a great establishment.
You're arteries don't clog themselves you know.

That being said... i love the place... where else are you going to go @ 3-7 in the morning? :D
