2. Smoothness of stroke - Cory Deuel

3. Confidence - Allen Hopkins

4. Safety play - Irving Crane

5. Mouth/ Bravado - Rudolph Wanderone

6. Knowledge (how things work and how to do them and how to move) - 3 players for this one(since it's 3 part) Bob Jewett, Wade Crane and Nick Varner

Best list so far... Cant dissagree with anything...better categorys as well.
 
I think any champ that (always) plays his best will do in the long run. As in a computer opponent, right?

Our music is sampled, totally fake
It's done by machines 'coz they don't make mistakes.
We won't sell to a major for a couple of bucks
No doubt about it, KMFDM sucks.
 
If I could get a player that had
1) Ralf Souquet's winner-mentality
2) Keith McCready's wit and humor around the table
3) Efren's kick-shots abilities
4) shooting as straight as Ching Shun Yang
5) the break of Shane Van Boening
6) the heart of Alex Pagulayan
7) the sports-training attitude of Mika Immonen
8) the banking-skills of John Brumback
9) a stroke as smooth as Corey Deuel
10) the beauty of Jasmin Ouschan

we would have a winner for sure :)
 
Efren Reyes - Stroke, Stance and Decision making
Earl Strickland - Stroke Power and Passion
Willie Mosconi's - I'd kill you to win this game focus and determination to win above all else.
Keith McCreedy - Pool player attitude!

Jay Helfert - Good looks!
 
Sigel's shotmaking
Buddy's stroke
Shane's break
Efren's imagination
Alex's willingness to play anyone
 
1. Shane's break.
2. Earl Strickland's pure shot making ability.
3. Alex's heart.
4. Souquet's demeanor.
5. Efren's kicking ability.
6. John Brumback's banking ability.
7. Parica's longevity.
8. Keith McCready's entertainment value.
9. Mika's consistency.
10. Corey's stroke.
