I’ve matched up with Adam a few times in so cal. He is known as a top tier one pocket player but I’m not even sure he plays much rotation at all anymore, and with the swings in the game this result isn’t crazy surprising. But for sure he’s a great player and that’s a good result for her

now that you say 1p i may have seen him play on stream. fairly tall guy, baseball cap. good result either way, but not that telling. i mean she has improved, but the top ladies like kelly and siming chen are on a different level. her fan following doesn't really match the achievements (yet)

Barely B+/A.....

Hope she has a plan for professional
education....because pool especially for women goes nowhere.

It depends on how you market yourself, which she apparently does well. The are more ways to make money now then just tournament winnings. But it will be a good thing for her to have something to fall back on.
 
There was lots not to like, but lots to like as well. The staff were great (Mel and Natalia), there were always games, equipment was good, you could play some very high speed players if you wanted, you could sit on the rail and shoot the shit with Danny shades, limo bob, keone. Room had character and characters for sure. I was only around for about the last 10 years, but it was my room for those years and I was sad when it died
I've heard that many of the guys from HOB now play at the Libertad Soccer Club on Olympic right next to Taco's Por Favor. I haven't been in there in a while though, but I've heard they upgraded the tables.

yup that’s all true I pop in there here and there for some action. Owner is a super nice old Mexican 3 vision player Jose, cheap beer, cheap table time, great spot overall. Very different vibe from hob though

Good ole days.

Now pool halls are an attraction and its bowling prices. Not sure when the last time you guys bowled but it could be a $100 night for a bowler. OF course they have their leagues they play in.
 
You could always get a one pocket game in that room.
Terrible action there. That room had the highest % of nut hunters of any pool room ever. Sure play 1P Rich even and get robbed.

It’s so bad there I ran a social experiment. I offered 6/5 on coin flips. Let a guy flip the coin AND call it. Guaranteed losing $ for me. I couldn’t ever get anyone there to take that action. Absolute nut low.

I have more nit stories from that room than any room over the past 40 years I spent anytime in.

To be clear, yes there are some great guys in that room. Some are friends. But when it comes to action-which was my type of pool, it was the worst.

Fatboy <——-that room is why I quit playing.

Idk....might end up on a pool table in a yellow bikini.

Wow. I am not the type to bet on coin flips. But how do you not take the 6/5? Unless you high rolled me and made me bet a gym bag full of money every flip like you did to Bucktooth I’d step up. That just shocks me. The locksmiths and nut hunters finally got their situation and couldn’t pull the trigger. 🤣

It was truly amazing. I offered that action several times there over the course of a few months/ I’ll bet $25 to your $20. Wasn’t high rolling anyone Hell that’s 5/4 even worse for me! Zero takers. “Stop when you like” that was my enhanced offer. That way they have complete control to who ever was betting and a price and I wasn’t touching the coin. In other words every thing favored the flipper and every thing was against me. Still no action.

Jeez, they must have been scared to death of you! Figured it was some scam they couldn’t see. Assuming I had the cash on me, which I usually do, I’d have ponied up 😆

Deep pockets and short arms. LOL

I knew a guy that would win 100% of his coin flips if you let him flip and catch it. It looked like he was flipping it, but actually he just wobbled it in the air. He would catch it, slap it against that back of his other hand and say "call it!". He knew what it was and if you called it correct, he could flip the coin over in his palm. He won every break against me for years until he finally showed me what he was doing. He tried to tech me, but I could never do it.

Just shocking they wouldn’t take that. The free money machine shows up and they scatter. 😱
 
So when is the billiards_watch vs. JA Barbox match?:eek:

Haven't seen a full match of Easton's, so how does she stack up against:
A healthy Allison Fisher?
Kelly Fisher?
Pia Filler?
Mrs. Fedor?

she would lose but what do you mean with a healthy allison fisher? is she in poor health?
 
No, please. Rather than have the guys at home relate to it, we should be switching the banger game to 9 ball. 8 ball is the most boring game on earth, UNLESS its played in this Ulimate Pool format, where its actually fun.
Um, Heck no! I would rather play bar box 8 ball on a valley with half the cloth missing, while shooting with a broomstick, while listening to elevator music, than have to play a long set of nine ball.
