Strong Arm John Action Challenge for The Entire Nation!!

Yes, the amazing Woo hit 78 out of 100 against me while at least 20 people including John Hager and Chris Bartrum travelled down I-85 to the Run and Shoot at 2 in the morning to sweat it. I offered to play him one on one for $20,000 but he declined. The kid can shoot though, and play poker. He has made a couple of final tables at the WSOP. After our match was over, I rode back to Mr. Cues with Josh and Woo, lol.
78 out of 100 is probably not going to be good enough to win, I am guessing John's guy is going to hit at least 80!!!

We are talking about 3 pointers not free throws. I shot 91% from the free throw line in college, but only 46% from the 3 point line and led the conference in both.

Martin sank 84 consecutive 3 pointers in 8 minutes.

Woo tried to bank the last 8 or so against me.

I've gotta ask...WTF does any of this have to do with pool? Move the thread to NPR so it can be debated to death by those masters or compulsivegamblers.com

Andy


the fact that it is a thread offering a challenge by a well know POOL player and action junky (Strong Arm John) makes it pool related. It's also worth noting that others involved in the thread discussion, myself included, are either pool players, gamblers or both. And the entire challenge and previous stories stem from the pool hall or patrons of the pool world in general. I get so goddamn tired of people screaming NPR, NPR, like a bunch of little girls. DO NOT READ the threads if they are uninteresting to you. How hard is this?
 
You're right you win. I don't scream like a girl either, note the play on words in my post. I'll keep out of the main page from now on.
 
I get tired of hearing the whole NPR spill as well. I wouldn't mind posting something there if more than 5 people visited it in a day. Why spend the time making a thread if you only get 10 views and no responses because no one views that forum?

And where does it say anything on the Main Forum that only pool related information is allowed? Doesn't say that in the description.
 
It should be noted...

That anybody who comes with a pool player or poker player will probably get some sort of action as well. It may turn into one action fest for a few days, week or more. John wants everybody to know he has more money than he ever has in his life and is ready to do some serious gambling.

76 Free Throws In A Row Is Not Many From What I Have Read On Here But I Was Told The Guy I Mentioned Before Has Never Played 1 Miunte Of Basketball And That Those 76 Were Done In 6 Minutes, Whether Or Not That Is Any Good I Dont Know Either. This Kid Does Not Gamble Himself But Has A Good Backer And Will Probabbly Put Up $10 Dimes Depending On The Game. 1on1pooltournys You Must Talk To John A Lot So Tell Him I Will Try And Hook Him Up With This Kid. He Also Does 3 Pointers As Well.
 
Sorry to offend.

Just to let everyone know, this "Action Challenege", HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ACTION REPORT. We have absolutely no involvement with this and I would appreciate it if the original poster would consider using a little different terminoligy in the future.

I don't mean to sound pissy its just easy for things to get mixed up.


Sorry if you were offended JCIN, however, the terminology "action" is used very randomly and is a very broad concept. I understand your concerns though. I know you personally and you know I wouldn't intentionally try and steal your coin. Just trying to seek attention to the thread.
 
I cant really imagine strong arm doing to much...ive seen him in stealing games last 3 times i went anywhere.....2 game flys even when hes stealing....
 
I assure Josh's guy will not do it. They have already done it a long time ago. Keep in mind with the original poster that Strong Arms guy insist that they get there own rebound too.
 
Rebound

I Think That If This Guy Is 54 Years Old And Gets His Own Rebound And Can Still Shoot That Good He Diserves To Be Challenged. I Dont Think John Is Trying To Steal From Anyone Because He Challenged The Entire Nation, I Mean Surely He Has To Think That There Is A Chance That There Is Someone That Can Beat Him Just Like He Thinks He Can Beat Anyone Else. He Has The Gamble And Just Wants To Get Down With Someone. I Would Bet Either Way Almost Just To See This Go Down.
 
A lot of people accuse John of being a lock artist and that is totally not true. I've won several G's from him and he was a gentleman. Not a sore loser at all. Not to say he has'nt had the nuts in big games before.lol

No worries. There was no offense taken. When people see the exact term "Action Challenege" well, we have spent a lot of time and money promoting that exact term and it is identified with TAR. You are absolutely correct in that "action" is universal. Just trying to keep things straight.

Hell, I would love to sweat the free throw deal. Matter of fact, tell John to come down to the Qlympics and we will tape the whole thing and put it on the internet. I like John and enjoy when he is around, something always goes off :D

For all who do not know John, he is the real deal. You can get played.
