Players in Va

thanks mr8ball...i appreciate you offering up the knowledge you have...that is a great thing imo...too many people old to the game want people new to the game to think you got to lose money gambling to get better...that sounds like something a car salesman tells someone right before he BREAKS HIS FOOT OFF IN THEIR BEHIND! probably b/c they actually fell for that line when they were coming up haha...i see that line has worked w/ a lot of you guys.
 
i'd just like to note:

there is a difference in paying your dues, cutting your teeth, whatever you want to call it, and getting robbed. losing, and losing money is all part of the game..........it will only make your game stronger.

getting robbed on the other hand will make alot of people quit.

there is a difference.

why is gambling such a BIG part of the game? is there anyone that just likes the game b/c it's fun? there are people that dont even play unless it's gambling involved...to me that person doesnt even like the game...they just love money...and i love money too but i also really like to play pool

would baseball players play baseball if they didn't get paid? they would play some, but they wouldn't play as much as they do.

difference is, baseball players have a salary.........currently only about 5 poolplayers have a salary.

gambling is the way a poolplayer gets PAID. send me a PM, got a suggestion for you.

if the pro boxer wasn't getting paid like he is now..........he'd damn sure kick the hell out of some no name for a few thousand.

If you want to play the game for fun, why not join a league?

To answer your question, why don't you call up Dwayne Wade and see if he wants to play you some 1 on 1?

My point is why would someone who is levels better than you want to play you? There are some nice people out there like mr8ball who're willing to do this - and might even teach you a thing or two for free, but it shouldn't be expected of anyone - and you have no right to complain when people aren't willing to do this.

If you called dwayne wade and asked him to play 1 on 1, he'd decline - what's the point? He's not gaining anything from it - you're no challenge...he can't learn anything from you...he'd most likely be bored playing you and it's really just a waste of his time. Now if you called dwayne wade and asked him to play 1 on 1 for something he deemed worthwhile, he might just play you. See how that works?
