By agreeing to these rules, you warrant that you will not post any messages that are obscene, vulgar, sexually-oriented, hateful, threatening, or otherwise violative of any laws.

To be included, there will be no ad hominem attacks. No name calling nor insults. Disagreeing with someone is fine, but calling them an idiot because of their opinion is not.



Strike One.

And just where did I violate any rules? So it's ok by you for CJ and Hawaian Eye and Satori to knock Scott's playing ability, but not for anyone, especially me, to knock CJ's instructing abilities?

I didn't knock anybody's playing ability. I just made an observation after I watched the video. If it will make you feel better, I'll make a video of me missing a lot of shots and you can comment on it.

And talking about mentors, I met and played a couple games with Scott's mentor Jack White at Keesler AFB, MS in 1973. He missed more balls than I did.
 
Wow

All my videos are available to the public for free....here's a link

Didn't see the TOI or the Million Dollar video's. Just a bunch of self promotional couple of minute video fluff...guess "All my videos" has a different meaning that someone of my limited lucidity cannot comprehend!

PS: You never answered why you haven't mentioned your friend Mike Sigel's GPPA League on your thread! Thought you guys were friends...guess not!
 
"Taste of TOI". - - - Sounds Delicious. ;)

Would you like me to post the TOI video for free? I'm surprised you haven't seen it.....anyone else want to see the TOI Video in it's entirety for free?

I'll post it tonight at midnight (Dallas Time) for FREE......for a limited time of course. How about 12 hours, this should give anyone that hasn't seen it a "Taste of TOI".

Sounds Delicious. ;)

That wasn't my point

You said all your videos were free...that was the point...good comeback though!

What did you think of your friend Mike Sigel's GPPA tour of Texas?
 
had to be careful not to get robbed if they thought you were handling a lot

How old were you here?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=im85dS-Tl74

You were a world class player, a promoter, a pool hall owner, & married to one of the most beautiful women ever.

You had it going on at a very young age.

I look young in this TV interview, although I must have been 31. Many
people still ask about Angela, she is stunningly attractive that's for sure.

It was a big advantage to look young with a pretty girl on the road, just had to be careful
not to get robbed if they thought you were handling a lot of "chips". I was stuck
up at gunpoint 3 times before I was 23 and once at knife point.....only once since
then so I'm getting "luckier". ;)

I met the two of you maybe 20-25 yrs ago. It was at a UJ Pucket memorial tournament you put on. I was just a kid maybe just having hit puberty. I was even more impressed with her than I was with you and I thought you were amazing.

Are you still here? I figured your own personal troll posse that's been stalking you, may have won. If you stop posting, there'll be nothing left for a half dozen guys to whine about. The taunting and baiting must be one of your favorite things about this forum or you wouldn't still be posting.

FWIW, the silent majority read your posts and appreciate your efforts. I skim past the haters' posts that try to sabotage the threads you're in. Hopefully they'll give up and we can actually have a discussion without personal negativity interrupting the dialogue.

Good luck with your admirers. They stalk your every post. playing-smiley08.gif

Best,

stay tuned, I know you'll like what's coming up next

Hey, it's just life, there's always those that need to share their suffering - compared to the night club business's saboteurs these guys are down right cheerful. ;)

They are the "old guard" that's concealed the secrets of pocket billiards since the foundation of the pool world.....it's all going according to plan, Bud, we're about ready to move along to phase 2.....stay tuned, I know you'll like what's coming up next. :D

"who was the girl you used to be married to?"

I met the two of you maybe 20-25 yrs ago. It was at a UJ Pucket memorial tournament you put on. I was just a kid maybe just having hit puberty. I was even more impressed with her than I was with you and I thought you were amazing.

Yes, I go back through some states and pool rooms and they say "who was the girl you used to be married to?"

That's ok, I've always been low profile, and she helped a lot. ;)

I would have to say that before the internet explosion, it was an art form to sneak into places without being knocked at your level of play. :thumbup: I would've thought a beautiful woman on your arm was a problem because of the attention it draws when you hit the door. I guess it could work in the opposite way where nobody even notices the guy that's escorting her! :)

Best,
Mike
 
men will always do gambling things they shouldn't when beautiful women are present

Yes, Angela was never on the road gambling, but I had other girls that would fake fights with me and storm out of the pool room. This had an interesting effect on other men....they would tend to attack the "weak state" I appeared to be in.

Then the girl would come back an hour or so later and start talking to "other" guys pretending to make me jealous. This was the clincher, now all the guys wanted to beat me to "win" her attention (and maybe more;)).

I have several stories of winning huge scores using this scenario. One thing that's certain in a pool room, men will always do things they shouldn't when beautiful women are present......especially when it has to do with gambling. 'The Game is the Teacher'

Did you ever try to win on just your ability or did you always need some kind of sharking tactic

The earlier years had some "show business" qualities, but........

The earlier years had some "show business" qualities, but the professional tournaments and gambling matches were quite the contrary. I doubt if anyone in the world will say I "sharked" them......it was not my modus operandi.

I appreciate your concern though. :rolleyes:
