The pool player vs The hustler

Dude I'll vouch for Bartram. He didn't know that chick was your lady. :grin:

OK fine..

you want to know why???

I'll tell you why,
My Issue with Bartram ... I'm not new to this forum I have been a member for years.. and read it a year before that..
I have seen Chris post time and time again .. scoffing at league players... scoffing at instructors.... scoffing at people who practice.. with the if you don't gamble you can't play and that whole line of bullshit... anyone who works on their game and tries to get better.. is just a fish.... if you don't have natural talent and gamble everyday you have no hope... ect.. ect..

In 2006 I couldn't play a lick.. I joined a league team.. and as Tanco loves to tell everyone who will listen... I was a 50% shooter in a weak league..( that phrase is on a plaque over the spot where I hang my rack so I see it every time I rack the balls... thanks Tanco... I still wouldn't cross the street to spit on your corpse.. but at least you provided some motivation)

I'm too old for this game I was 36 when I started and I am almost 2 weeks away from my 41st birthday.. ( wayyyy to old to ever get decent... right???)

I got the bug and decided to get good at this.. and I did.. I read every book I could get my hands on.. actually that's not true I don't "read" books on pool... I memorize them.. hell 99 critical shots alone is a tattered wreck falling apart and I bought it brand new off the shelf in 06.

I hired a world class coach to get my mechanics right and he did...I get up 2 hours early every morning just to get my base workout table time in.. I've never missed 2 days in a row for the past 3 years.. and I have records to prove it...

then you have Chris spouting off in instructional threads ... he never gives any info... just insults and backhanded compliments.. laughing at the people who work so hard at their game...and it pisses me off..

well I've reached my goal.. I am as good as anyone.. I'm better that 99+% of all you azb'ers and 90% of those are action hounds and degenerate gamblers so I took a swing at your hero.. I don't have the cash to bet up to Bartram standards.. but then again he cant hit the balls up to my standards...take that to the bank..

so after a few cocktails... I got on him after yet another joke/comment chucking at the people who are trying improve..

by the end of 2011 you will ALL know my name... count on it..

so there you have it.

send all the red rep you want I truly don't give a shit
 
Maybe I should start talking shit to good players to get them to play me out of frustration. Most people would be willing to pay a guy like Bartram to play them in a long session like that. Or at least gamble cheap with no chance of winning

Bartram you suck and have no heart, you damn hustler! I'll be waiting at Hardtimes in December and we can play a race to 1 million 10 ball for a soda so you can regain some pride! BTW The No Action Report will be streaming it live to 10 people on the internet.

While we are on that subject.... Same goes to you Donny Mills.. your a banger and I will gladly play you for the some of zero dollars to prove it! bring it nit!... *Fingers crossed.
 
I will give you this... you're a funny guy:)

This post reminds me of that guy that would every couple of months, that he didn't have a job, didn't have a girl or any ties to hold him down, and he was looking for someone to take him under their wing and take him on the road. He was a champion player but just needed some guidance.

Excepting the money part of course... :grin:

Since you don't play for money, and 10k sets are pocket change anyways, why don't you play him for a fresh copy of 99 Critical Shots?

Thanks again for the early morning laugh!!!

OK fine..

cause like im a better player than you
darren is a better player than me.
you need a spot from me
and i need a spot from him.

Considering that you beat him with the call 8 I would say that you just flat out beat him. Did that spot come into play enough to even it up in your opinion? The call 8 doesn't really seem like a spot as much as it is the spotter baiting the person taking the spot.
 
How often should Cris say: i play you..............

i m sure mr.softshot just likes to use his keyboard- or thinks he could tease Chris.
Chris perhaps you ll better do something useful instead of answering a guy, who will never play you :p
long time ago i read such boring postings from someone- it s more like a wannabe-hero who s looking for comments.
....but....maybe we all know him.....perhaps he is......a 5x time world-champ?

lg from overseas,
ingo

I agree, besides the break, how often is Bartram going to make the 8 and miss the 9 or 10? It is a marginal spot IMO at their speed.
 
yo i know this isn't about money but if this is going to go down the bet should at least be traveling expenses.
 
you don't even have the heart to challenge yourself to raise your game... no wonder you are still hanging on coat tails

i wish i could play well enough to hang on d. appelton's coat tails. getting the call 8 from a us open winner says a lot about your game. there's no shame at all in saying you got the call 8 from someone that plays well enough to win the us open

donny plays real strong but i think he'd get way more props if he didn't play rack your own
 
I may not have thousands of posts on here. But i am on this site every day taking in as much information as possible. I cant really ever remember Chris B talking down on anyone whos not a pro or anything along those lines. He has always seemed cool especially in chat rooms during live streams. If anything we should be thanking him for contributing to our forum community. All that said i am pumped to see how this goes down. Go get em Chris.
 
and your downfall is the sad assumption that money makes any difference at all... I still feel sorry for you... you have the ability to be more than you are... you just don't have the balls to achieve it.. or the work ethic to make it happen

You act like you know him personally. Youre digging a deep hole with all that talk.
 
Man, I knew we had some weird people on this board but this Eric dude is flat out delusional. I really believe he "thinks" he is as good as he says but to use his little cueball game to determine who the better player is....well, that is more than a little strange.

Soft Shoe, I wish you well in your pursuit of eternal happiness and other worldly control of the cueball but try to stay within the neighborhood of sanity when barking about a game. Very few people have the time or the inclination to play a race to 1K for funsies. If Chris actually takes you up on this game he must REALLLLY want to make you look as dumb as your posts do.

Best of luck,
D
 
If Chris is willintg to bet $1 to $200 the his nose is WIDE OPEN.

Friggin hilarious.

Chris, not sure why you are trying so hard to accommodate E-R-I-C-F-R-E-E-M-A-N, but is is pretty funny...so good on you both.

I played easy -e the other day and we split sets. To be continued!:eek:

PRACTICE CHAMPION!

Money means a lot, which is why you wont bet a penny. Make up any excuse you want, but its easy to call anyone out to play even for free.
 
I still havent seen a post where this punk agreed to actually play. He just keeps saying 14.1 for 1000 and 8-ball box. How bout you man the f$#k up and come out and say you will be at DCC and that you will play Chris.

By the way I love the amount of entertainment I get from this forum. I have become a total computer nerd in approximately 3 months and it's all because of AZ.

PS Chris, if you want me to handle your light work I would be glad to!!
