Thoughts on this instructional video about hustling.....

I just found this on youtube and was going to create a thread about it for my first post. I'm glad that I searched for it first...this has to be a joke, it's too hokey not to be.
 
It was meant to be joke/entertainment. It was filmed at the same time as Learn from Best, and Pool the Masters Way, and Amazing Trick Shots in Aspen Colorado at the Paragon Ballroom.

Reminds me of an old saying.

"Sometimes if you keep your mouth shut people may think you're an idiot, or you can open it and prove it."

It is better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt - Oscar Wilde
 
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.

- Abraham Lincoln

I don't think that is a real Lincoln quote. He has been attributed with saying many thing he never said. Somewhere out there is a list of it all.

Just started watching this. Pretty funny. That's Jimmy Mataya, Eva Mataya's first husband. He met her in Vegas I believe when she was a playboy bunny. He was a solid player back in the day....a pro. He taught her. Funny funny video so far....Pretty Boy Floyd....hahahahaha.

Wrong. Ewa and Jimmy met when she came from Sweden to play in the 14.1 championship. Both were in the same event and he was taken with her. Her playboy bunny years came after she hooked up with Mataya.

Summary:
In conclusion, there is no substantive evidence that this popular adage was coined or employed by Abraham Lincoln or Mark Twain. The earliest ascriptions to these famous figures appeared many years post death. QI thinks that Maurice Switzer is currently the top choice for coiner of the expression though future data may reveal alternative claimants.
 
I still have these VHS tapes from back in the 80's:grin:
