Pool Moments

a few thoughts

Need a chalk line?
Would rather be lucky.
Did you call that?
8 on the break!
Anyone know the Heimlich Maneuver? (Where I learned to play, there was a poster on the wall. I assume it was for the dinner crowd, but I would casually point to it with my cue when someone choked on a shot....)
 
BOOM! Right in the cup.

Post it or Shove it.

What airbarrell???

3-2-5-4-$50???

Keep rackin, i'm not broke.

Grip it, and rip it!

What's a nit?

Why am i a nit?

I am a nit... damn.

Busted, what's that???

Rippin racks, and stackin cash.


all stuff i have heard around the pool hall or started saying myself.
 
Do you ever miss?
I can't buy a roll.
I need more weight.
Double or nothing?
Nice kick safe, lucky.
Two rails never fails!
You should just quit now.
I'll get you next time.
 
Stop talkin, start chalkin


Drag it off the light


Get the balls.....

Hit it with your purse


"He can't beat me"

Mine is also bank pool related. Here in bank pool country, it is not uncommon to hear an old timer call a "cross the holler" shot, which is better known as a cross corner bank for you more cosmopolitan folks.
