Hi all...
Just started playing again after a long layoff, was probably a '6' in APA 8-ball and a 7 in 9-ball (been 10+ years)... and I have a couple of buddies who aren't so good that I play with. Actually, the company we work at has a pool table in the "break" room (sorry, pun intended) that we play on at lunch and after work (cool, huh?). Finally got to bring my Coker cue out of semi-retirement.
Anyway, a couple of times playing 8-ball, I've either broken and ran or maybe they took a shot and missed and I ran out (all 8). I seem to recall a slang term for that, when your opponent still has all 7 balls on the table, that was somewhat derogatory (in a trash-talking kind of way, not vulgar).
For the life of me, I can't remember any slang terms for that situation.
Anybody?
