Dude you should have said all that in the beginning. I thought you just took spraypaint to a cue and called it good. Anyway, nice post.

As I stated in my book, "The Green Felt JUngle", my partner and I would go from town to town with a line on guys we knew I could beat and the partner would get up and play the mark for $10 a game and lose a quick $100. I would then tell the guy he plays too good cheap but I'd play him some for $100 a game. He would figure right away I was a better player than my partner but almost every single time he would say he'll play me for $20 a game and lose the hundred back. Then, EVERY SINGLE TIME they would look at my partner who they just beat for 10 quick games and say, I'll play him for $100 a game if you'll really looking to gamble. Needless to say my partner was a better player than me and he would bust the guy who just couldn't get out of his mind how easily he beat the guy earlier out of 10 games. Works every time on even the smartest of players and stakehorses.;)

Yea Hump, we used that one too. My favorite was telling the bar maid, just loud enough for the trapee to hear, she should see me play pool. That I didn't play for less than $100 a game and that I was taught by the greatest player of all time Willie Mascara. That is all it usually took.

LOL , I like that mascara . Ill be honest everone thats a wanna be hustler now days and make a go of it has to be the BIG MAN and that ends the game right there . I mean I could shoot a great stick but I was never looking for the phone behind the bar to be picked up and then some guy walk in the door sporting a half decent game . I always tried to play the weakest players and controll the outcome of everygame either win or loose .I love a great strong game but I think for me hustling I always played the weakest players I possibly could and had no mind if I looked like an idiot or not . Just wanted the $ .
 
you talklin to me, talkin to me or what?

No FL, I wasn't talking to you. I was referring to the "cue" Foxtrott was saying he could cobble together with spray paint and cigarette ashes.
I'd like to see a picture of one of these "beasts".
Cheers.
