I'd hoped to illustrate this thread with a picture of Efren -- sitting alone studying a chessboard in the hallway of the old hotel in Louisville during an early DCC, Sorry, couldn't come up with it.
Hard for me to understand, but many of the best pool players I've known have been formidable chessboard opponents. The games don't strike me as similar, certainly not physically and barely mentally.
I know -- one-pocket is often compared to chess on a pool table. But it's hard for me to imagine that players are thinking three or four shots ahead.
What's the connection?
