lol, you asked, I answered.
You've done this twice. Once now and once a few years ago. It sticks in your craw that you have nothing comparable and are just a garage go off. What was it? Over $50K lost in a fucking garage several months back, lol. Then you posted your pathetic mea culpa that was so puppy sad, even I told you to do yourself a favor and take it down. It appears you finally heeded that advice.
You aren't qualified to knock me cause I got your dough and you don't have the cojones to come get it.
Have a nice day.
Lou Figueroa
yeah...I lost some amount in a garage....because I get up and play which you don't. You needed 12 backers and a crew "working" me so that you could make a small share of 10k. I can and will criticize you because you're a super nobody who is a professional spin-doctor. I have two "state championships" one in Colorado and one with my team in Oklahoma. Additionally, in singles with close to 800 players at the BCA international Championships I won 17th place WHILE manning my booth between matches. I also managed to get 5th place in an all-around tournament in Den Hague Netherlands, 14.1, 9-ball and 8 ball that was stacked with bundesliga level players.
But perhaps the best accomplishment of my life was when I lost 9-6 in a ten thousand dollar match against the super great amazing player Lou Figueroa after working 14 hour days for a week straight and playing half my speed. Lou, as we all know is the champion of tiny town Montana and has the belt buckle to prove it. He had to beat six of the world's best players to get that buckle and for me to get six games on him is the crowning achievement of my pool life. I celebrated by driving to New York city and got to play with Earl Strickland.
No matter where I have been in my life, all the pool rooms around the world, the pro players I have played and hung with, nothing will ever top getting to play Lou the champeen Figueroa. In my travels leading up to playing him I found that he is HATED intensely by almost all who know him that I met and it's a real mystery as to why? I found that he is barred from one of the most iconic rooms in America Cue and Cushion in St. Louis which really surprised me as I couldn't imagine any room not wanting the Great Lou Figueroa around.
I only wish I could have lost to him again and tried hard to get him to play but it wasn't to be because Lou is merciful and a $30,000 game wasn't enough to get him to consider showing up to play. Now I will have to take those 6 games and be happy with what I got.
I can only dream of being as good of a "story" teller as you are Lou. One thing I do know and which you can never match is that I have more heart in my toenail clippings than you have ever had in your whole life. I don't need anyone to back me and certainly not a group. You did all that for $2000 and let them get the rest. Kind of pathetic in my eyes. The money I lost was made back inside of a week. I also know that I am a better person than you in every way. Why? Because you're a backstabbing dishonorable person who did it to me and has now done it to John Schmidt. I shook your hand, ugh....and honored my word with you TWICE. You dishonored yours twice and proved that you are dishonest and untrustworthy.
So, bud, it's all good. I can walk into ANY room and people smile when they see me because I am a friendly person and good action win or lose. You are barred from at least one room for being a super nit and just about no one likes you.
I didn't lose 50k by the way, less than that and none of your business. Money which also was made back within a few weeks. Yeah it was not fun to do that and I did post about it and admit my fault. Unlike you though I am honest about my shortcomings and my audience understood my position. Also unlike you I have the heart to get in the box even when I am not the favorite. You are a coward through and through who needed to be cattle prodded to step up and play and then you acted like a super whiny baby the WHOLE TIME leading up to the match and we can certainly show off those exchanges if you want to do that. You actually had the vain thought that people should PAY to watch you play and that you should get a cut of that pay-per-view. You suck so badly that you should be paying people to watch you. Frankly I was kind of shocked at how badly the Belt Buckle Champ played. All in all, you are four games of one pocket ahead of me. You should probably quit pool because your actual skill is far below what you think it is. Probably the smartest thing you have ever done is chicken out when challenged by actual players. Lying about the encounters though on public forums wasn't that smart though but then you are a pro and know that when it's your story against theirs that you can get away with lying. Just like you're "good" with John Schmidt right?
Have a nice night mr. professional embellisher. Maybe I will send you a shirt from Cue and Cushion next time I am in St. Louis since you can't go there.
