I love the response of "I beat them at least once...". Reminds me of the time my brother came home from university, when I was 17. We used to armwrestle, and he could beat me all day. Anyways, I had been working construction with my dad the whole year, and also had a 6" growth spurt. He got drinking one night with his buddies at our house, and wanted to armwrestle with me. He lost 30 times. Finally, he outlasted me and beat me the 31st time. Then he quit winner. So, you could say that he beat me with no weight at least once. Didn't matter that I crushed him 30 times before that.

Hey, I was kind of wondering that, too. Do you mean they quit at whatever you were playing? Without sounding like I am questioning you on ability, I am questioning the outcomes quoted. I have beaten Johnny two outta three in a handicap tourney, and quite a few good players in non handicap tourneys; but, I wouldn't say that I beat them. When a guy steps up, you gamble at whatever game, they quit. That's beating someone. If you sent home that list you gave out, thumbs up and amen.Shawn Armstrong said:

Imo... Freddy has played good enough, long enough, bet enough and beat enough to warrant our respect.

You may want to check out http://www.onepocket.org/ for some history on Freddy, unless you think that is made up too.

"I out drove ya on that one, didn't I Tiger"
Corvette, can ya hook a brother up with a pic
Guys, I get the impression Freddy took at least one set off these guys, not just a game....
Getting tiresome
If I spell it out in Russian would you get it then? I'll clairify one more time. "Beat Even." That means there was no spot involved. That also means that I either broke 'em, or finished ahead when the session was over for that day. I'm not talking tournaments. I played for cash money. Usually my own. Something else unsaid is how many of these guys I played in their own poolrooms. Why all the nit-picking? You have to be a good player to even know all the guys on that list.

PS On my new blog I will be pontificating on the sociopathic, political, and philosophical views on pool, and the world in general. I am now adding a daily tip from the Old-time Hustler's Handbook. A gamemanship section to soon follow.

Honours since the first hole???? Try the first day..............
And, actually, it was his wedge. Not to nitpick..............
Why did you feel the need to drop names? Was it to impress us? I can't figure out another reason for doing this. To me, it was woofing.freddy the beard said:
That clears it up. To me, beating a guy means sending him away loser. Dude, I had no idea you played that speed. A couple of those guys are my heroes. Kudos. I meant nothing by it, the way I read it was "you beat them even, Once." Could have meant a lot of things, to me, that is.freddy the beard said:
