1.) Talleywack.

Example:

Ray got his nuts shot off last night. Man, I'm not sure who that guy was but he was in dead fu*king talleywack.


2.) Double him up"

Example (in the honor of Danny D):

He's got a great shot here, just cross the nine to his side and double him up down talbe and he'll be sleeping in the street.

'' Gaff Rack'',most people would probably think your talking about a
girl with 2 different sized boobs.:smile:
 
"lot's of green"

Of course, non-pool players might think that means lot's money, not a long shot.

Now with the popularity of blue cloth, should it be "lot's of blue"?
