Couple of years ago, I have a friend tell me he has action in a rough
club.Can play a Mexican who's 17,yes 17,brothers like to put him in action!
The man can play but needs weight from my horse so away we g
n the way out the door we pick up a real pool degenerate,who plays the 9+10 ghost and owns Casper.So we get to the club and the
family is waiting on us.All they want to do is races to 7 for $50!18 men
get together and bet 50! Yeah I am not happy.My horse says "I can't
make a man do what he doesn't want to do.". They play three sets and we
are 150 winner.A friend of my player shows up and we start pushing hard for side bets.In the meantime the "ghost owner" is losing at $5 a game and drinking on my tab.
What a piece of work he was.Anyways we play the 4th set for 100 +150
on the side.Adjusted from the 8 to the 7,wn the set hill hill.I tell the
friend bet all you can,we are going to steam roll them this set and it will probably be over. It was getting late and much cerveza had been drank.
We win that set.I have the 100 set and 45 on the side.Players friend has probably 300+ on the side.They all say no mas.I pay the time and buy 18 beers! We leave and players friend split with his side of our action.I never got my cut of the side which was more then I won.Oh well you live and hopefully you learn.

ritchiebalto...You know the old saying...If you look around the poolroom, and can't figure out who the "mark" is...the mark is YOU! LOL Good story...Cigar Tom is one hell of a great player. His brother Bob is no slouch either...even today at close to 80! LOL
