Don't go there Hilly! That's not fair!

AMNESIA won't work, you've demonstrated your steel trap memory too often.

We want the facts, and nothin but the facts....

 

[jay helfert]

sweet, lets get to the planning stages.

Tommy, there's six big poker rooms within 30 minutes of me. All are open 24 hours a day. You can go on poker overload out here. First thing I'd do is hook you up with Tang. He KNOWS the rooms and the best games.

Just give me a heads up and I'll pick you up at the airport (LAX or Long Beach). You can stay at Motel Jay too. I used to play 3-4 days a week, but have cut way back. I'm down to one or two tourneys a month and a couple online also. Just had to come up for air.

I had a pretty good run for about ten years. It was a very nice part time job, that often paid more than my full time job, running a pool room. Now, I'm more into spending the do-re-mi and having a good time. When I get short, I'll go back to work.

Tina can tell you herself....if she wants to!

 

[Jaden]

She can definitely hit them pretty sporty.

Beautiful, and she can play pool too! Im in love. I shouldve stayed in San Diego when i got out of the military

Me and my Bro occassionally hit them around with her. Hey Tina, chris should be back in April for a couple of weeks on leave before he goes back to Cuba. I don't know if I'll be in town when he's back or not but if so we can hit some around again if you want.

But yeah, she hits them really good. Neither me or my bro can hold back much playing Tina. I hope the sport really takes off and she's able to go back to playing pro. We need people like her in the sport.

Wow, Ok....


Thanks Blackjack first and foremost. Those pictures were taken all at the same time just different locations as your edit hinted at. They were taken by Susie Zumini, a good friend of mine here in San Diego.

BlackJack was instrumental in helping me put together a player submission pack by giving me certain aspects of what it should contain. The end product truly looked good and was top notch content wise because of him. People at Inside Pool were so impressed with it, one of the writers was talking about doing a story on it. He wanted to give others vying for sponsorship a professional portfolio in hand to give them every chance of getting what they needed. Then I dropped off the face of the pool world in 2006 after playing 3/4 of the year on the pro tour.

People who had been calling me two years previous asking to sponsor me, somehow did not return my calls after the season had started. This all came to a breaking point at the last event I played of that year, the Florida event. I did my last interview for APA magazine, and told the writer at that time it was it for me. So much stress, so little money in the end made me really not miss the game when I put my cue down this time.

I have quit like everyone surely has at one time or another, so frustrated or what have you. Somewhere down the line you get a need internal to yourself that you just need to hit balls, and you get back in it.

I have felt no need this time around. And it is nice. I am going back to school, I give lessons to my local APA chapter and am learning things that I ignored for many years due to a singular focus to pool.

I have been thinking lately about going around and playing some Regional Tour events, but if I do, will be taking a girl or two with me. It would be more for a social purpose than any other anymore.

Regards to all the kind posters here. Thanks again.

In the end it was all worth it. Of course it was difficult going through all of that - but you've come out of it a wiser, stronger woman. That's what these life lessons are all about. If you ever change your mind and decide to play again - I'm always here - abuse the privilege - and I know a lot of players out there that will be hoping not to draw you!

And just because... here's another beautiful picture of one of my favorite players...

Under that sweet face is a stone cold pool killer!
If you ever find her across the table from you...BEWARE!

San Diego has it's fair share of pool beauty. If you had stayed, you would probably have run into Hydred Makabali as well. She is as hot as they come.......

 

[Jaden]

Lyla's not bad looking either

Lyla's really pretty too. Back before she moved away the first time I had considered asking her out, but then I met who later became my wife after she moved away.

Jay,
I may come out there for a few days before I go to Vegas for the Series. I'll let you know the dates Im planning on going as soon as I nail them down and see if thats feasable for you.

Hydred is one of the most beautiful girls I have ever seen. She has a great personality and I LOVE her accent.

We met at the Smokey Mountain Shootout last year, and she seems to be a very nice person. Kind of a funny, quick wit, too.

She is a breathtaking beauty for sure! When she's around, I can't take my eyes off her. I swear when she smiles, the whole room lights up!

I'll be around. Maybe we'll go over together this year. We can talk poker on the drive over, about 4 hours.

Kristy Carter was from San Diego too. What a little doll she is! And maybe the best player in the bunch. She had the potential to go far in pool. Now she coaches Allison!

Do you mean Kristy Carter?

 

[LAMas]

Do you mean Kristy Carter?

I am sure - she always wore poured on Levi jeans back in the day. What's Alice Rim's sisters name and what happened to her friend Toshiko?

YES, what a dork I am! Thanks Hilary.

Alice sister's name is Connie and is married to Louis Ulrich. Connie is beautiful, has an AWESOME personality and IS the most normal person that I know .

Connie's friend was Yoshiko. I hear she is married and living somewhere in LA not playing pool anymore.

 

[bumpypickle]

What if she was ugly in your opinion?

That's disappointing to hear, Don. She has the talent and beauty to pick up the sponsors and go far.

What does her beauty (in your opinion) have to do with anything?
