1. Anyone who bridges by balling up their fist like a hamhock and resting the cue between their knuckles...

2. Anyone with a cue that's more than two pieces (excluding jump/break cues)...

3. Anyone with a cue that contains an airbrushed image of a near-naked woman, a skull, or a flaming 8-ball...

4. Anyone who claims to prefer playing on "regulation" size tables...

5. Anyone who chalks up by placing the chalk on the floor and screwing the cue into it with their palms like they're a boyscout trying to start a fire...

6. Anyone who thinks Minnesota Fats was the greatest player ever...

7. Anyone who brings their red chalk to the pool hall...

8. Anyone whom I've ever heard use the phrase "n-word" pool when describing safety play (This makes me want to beat them senseless)...

9. Anyone I've ever heard utter the claim "I used to be really good when I was younger.... I put myself through college playing pool..."

10. Anyone who's ever walked up and said "Excuse me, do you have an extra screw-on tip, I just broke mine"...

Feel free to add to this list...
 
i once saw a guy chalk his cue by holding the chalk to the tip and kicking the butt that was resting on the floor.

Funny, I actually have done this with brand new pieces before because I like my chalks to have a small smooth concave to them not those flat sharp edegs that come on the new chalks.

Might want to stay away from some of these people. Good hunters bring the right bait.
 
11. Anyone who beats me HILL_HILL and I know I left shots out there. And they act smug about it.

I once played a guy who shot with one hand and told me all about how he was the greatest player in guatemala! lol He bought me drinks all night long.
 
Anyone who doesn't realize after playing with you for an hour that you just switched to playing right handed with a closed bridge from open bridged left handed.:cool:
 
I kinda want to buy this cue and get a good shaft for it. Anyone playing with a light up buttcap cue with floating 8 or 9 balls has to be thought a sucker. Well...maybe I am thought of as a sucker anyways but this cue would confirm it. :D

I am thinking about getting a 314 for a pink McD or maybe one of those light up ones above haha. Who would not play me if I had a pink cue and a matching pink glove?

I personally don't like clubbing baby seals to death.

If a person is helpless, unless they are being overbearing, I won't go out o my way to get a game with them.

I prefer to play against players that challenge me to become better.

But thanks all.. I am getting some great ideas for the things I can do to catch an arrogant "good" player off guard and take all his money..

I like to gamble with fellas that like to tip the scales. Especially when they are gaining weight against people from around my way.

And girls that can cook more than 4 dishes.

Well you've made a pretty good list of people I won't gamble with, but...

--people who twirl anything
--- a cue, Tom Cruise style
--- the rack, pulling it off the balls

when racking 8-ball:

-- people who put the head ball on top, as though making it fall into place is some kind of neat trick.

-- people who look like they've entered a rubik's cube contest with the balls before racking.
