Man (or woman) up!

Okay, here it is. At that time, I would have tried to play it with high-inside either soft to take a tough cut from the top rail or hard to take a tough cut from the bottom rail. Either way a tough two-ball out.

He played it with deep running draw to off the rail to the middle diamond on the end. The english sharpened it off that rail and brought it back up table. By playing it this way, he pretty much took any scratch out of play and, once practiced a little, the position is automatic no matter where the 8-ball & CB are on that side of the table. You just have to get roughly to the middle of the end rail for the 2nd bank.

Now we're cooking with gas!

Jay, you have a lot of champions on your list. One of the things about playing mostly in CO was we didn't have too many 'named' players. But I gambled with Danny Medina, Melvin Sharpe, Bill Skinner, Cheyenne Pete, Dave Gomez, Angel Garcia, Chuey Rivera, Scott Smith, Bill Meacham and a ton more. On the road I gambled with Parica, Coy Lee, Junior Brown, Donnie Brown, Jeremy Vulgamire, Gabe Owen, Wade Crane and many, many others. We also had road players come through town and I would usually watch them play more than step up.

I never played those guys for much money though, mostly because I didn't have much and what I had had to last me.

An old farmer in Alamosa told me that he beat Jack White out of a couple hundred after he did an exhibition at the college there. Funny thing was, I believe it because I played that guy for hours and he played STRONG. I finally got the best of him, but I played real good on a barbox in those days. Thing is, that guy never played anywhere but that bar. Ever.

And I saw the exhibition that Jack did and he was definitely off that night. Still owes me a bicycle from it in fact.

I played Scott the first time he came out to California. He didn't like it.
Also played the big Meach once. I didn't like it.

Playing the Big Guns

I am one of those players who is the class of always worked and had the little woman and kids to take care of...house and all the rest...you guys know the story...

However, you can still play the giants if you want to...
Just enter the weekend 30-100 dollar entry regional tourenys when they are available to you or near your area..

I went this route and have had many great times and matches with all the best in my area and all the best who travel around the west coast..

There are only a few of us League Players who are willing to take on the champions and I keep trying to convice my fellow friends and players that they are ready. But unfortunately, most of the time they say that I am wrong and they are just gonna get their ass kicked....

However I will keep trying and telling them that they are ready and should give it a try...

Playing them in a tournament is easier and you are most likely to get their best game as if they lose then we all know it is not like gambling where you can just flip the coin and start another set...

Play the tournaments my fellow players at the least...

YOU ARE READY....BELIEVE ME....YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT...

Mr. J.

I agree. I am a firm believer that you will NEVER get better unless you play under stressful situations against a better opponent.

Nice shot Sixpack. Thanks,

I remember more clearly now. I was in Texas with a friend of mine. Jose plays this shot and we looked at each other and I could see the lightbulb go off in his head as I'm sure he could in mine.

Mr. J.

Jeff, you are not the ordinary league player. You are definitely on the high end of the scale, but nice try anyway.
