In his other cues for sale he has a Capone Cue for Sale. Wasn't this also for sale on AZ and then on Ebay? I think it sold for around 980.00 on ebay a few months ago. Nice markup.
Marty Herman is a nutjob who earlier today claimed that I have been bashing him on az.... which I have never mentioned his name up until this post. He was in a chat session and just started going off about how much of a pro he is and said he would play anyone in the world for $10k if he got the wild 6.... which I'd love to see.
Fortunately I saved the entire chat and it's hilarious the crap he said.
Some of the highlights:
[smarty_jones] 8:18 am: my students are world championbs
[smarty_jones] 8:20 am: in the pool world im like a davey crocket
[smarty_jones] 8:20 am: pioneer against wrongs of players
