Not sure about your question although I’d think not. He operates a successful business is my understanding. Likes to bet it up. Doesn’t lose very often. I hadn’t heard about him playing in months and definitely didn’t know Louisville had this jt guy that according to one post allegedly plays somewhere around Demarco’s speed. John plays nowhere around Demarco’s speed in one pocket for sure. Sounds like John matched up poorly.

I was being facetious bud. AFAIK all he's ever done is travel and gamble HIGH. Gotta be some form of income. Never heard of him owning any business.
Yes. I took it that way as no harm. I used to wonder the same thing. Did some internetting to learn he owns some type of waste business. I often wonder about so many of these guys…gamblers in particular. I’ve worked hard in facilities maintenance for 44 years. Retirement in two weeks. So many of these names we talk about never mention any legitimate source of income. None of my business for sure…just often wondered.
This thread is sassy as fk.
I thought he sold hot dogs… Regarding his gambling, he probably has paid off his house/cars and has a fully funded retirement account.

I've watched Lil John for over 20 years -- back to a time when he was just a "kid" from Hattiesburg. Always barking and apparently never feared no one. Just loved action. Always dealt straight-up in my observations. I figure that down here, in the South, John is well known and well respected across a wide spectrum. But then most of us down here don't get around too much and sure ain't never been to no New York City. Just the way we are and how we have rolled.

This will be the third year that a lucky player will receive the Louie Roberts A/E Award at the Derby City Classic.
Now, I'd always known it as the "Louie Roberts Award," until I checked out the Derby City Classic website.
Here's what I discovered: "Louie Roberts was never a Hall of Famer, but certainly did a lot for pool. He was both full of action and very entertaining to watch."
AND, "Recipients of the A/E event win FREE ROOM and FREE ENTRY FEES for life to the Derby City Classic." WOW!
This year's DCC was a huge success. Because of the grand...
He's one of those guys who could "be in town for a few days visiting family" and a lot of players, good players wouldn't have to like the action. He makes it to Indiana, but does most of his playing around Railbirds.
i couldn't tell who was who from the video. and it looked like they had the scores for the wrong side posted. and it was a close match.
i did not have audio for mine.
i thought lill john was the smaller black guy, later thought the other. but he wasnt little. neither played anything over short stop speed for what i saw.
