I have a story I wanted to share. Hopefully it won't be long winded.
I invited a friend over to play some 9 ball at my house last night.
It's really good playing him not just the fact that he plays well , but we don't really talk while we play. Mainly because he's Russian.
On one trip to a tournament , I had 4 hours to try to explain the rules...it was a great time.
Anyway , back to the story... Tolik is preparing to shoot a long straight shot ( 8 ) down the rail , jacked up to boot. Having to draw back on the 9 with little room.
He shoots the shot , nails it , gets perfect on the nine. I exclaimed " wow nice shot ! "...Tolik , with a slight pause replies.." Sometimes". I laughed at the irony . How that one word can sum up an entire game , match ,or just one shot. Sometimes
