Wow. Under your conditions, I probably average about 7-5 win vs the ghost. I can't wait to let the tourney directors around here know that they have me rated about 4 ranks too high!

On a 7' table, I probably average beating the ghost maybe 7-4, maybe more on a sloppy valley. I also play a bit stronger 8 ball on the bar table. Practicing at the BCA on a 7' Diamond I broke 10 racks on 2 different sessions. I broke and ran 5, then 6. That is of course pristine optimal conditions with a magic rack. On a sloppy valley that doesn't rack so perfect, I might break and run 3/10 8 ball
I'm considered a decent A player in my area, which I'd say is well below "semi-pro".
Where do you think you come out doing this? (Hint...it takes about 15 minutes to find out)

There is a bar near me with a bunch of 8' Diamonds. It comes up often that I am just hitting balls by myself on a busy night. People come up and ask me to play all the time. Typically, it is an unmitigated slaughter lol. However, they keep playing, other people jump in, etc. They *want* to play against me. Of course I try to shoot my normal game, but I'm usually having a couple beers, shooting the breeze, and not really caring if I win or lose. Often they buy me a drink, but I make sure to return the favor and offer if they don't. Maybe just try being nice to people, friendly, and see if that makes a difference. Maybe try giving your spot up at the table sometimes...make a friend, turn the tide. Who knows?

Not off topic at all. You started off with how strong you are so I was curious.
I have put 4 to 6 packs together on 9' diamond and can beat the living chit out of the ghost with ball in hand but........i have never play anywhere near semi-pro speed.
Then you said you got excited after a 2 pack.
I was just curious and gave you an idea of how some here would go by for skill level.
As for the haters part. Imagine this:
A well known very strong shortstop walks into a bar night after night and dominates the place for the fun of it. Well, the average league player will slobber at the mouth to play/learn from them. I just don't see the majority of league players hating on a very strong player that is willing to "show what he knows" for free.
On the other hand, if your playing a bunch of people that don't care about pool well, then yeah, they are gonna be pissed since they are (as most have pointed out) to drink and socialize "while" hitting balls around.
I'm done in this thread.
Good luck.

Did I tell you I played an event in the woods while back where it was a automatic loss of game to play safe? I tried to tell the TD it would bite one of them in the booty......
Lol in the finals homie had no shot except to break me out.....lol those guys couldn’t spell two way if I spotted them all the consonants and spotted them the T

Enough already
There is no way this is not just a Bull S--- thread. to jerk our chains. Anyone
that can play at all and is in their 30's doesn't talk like this. Even the cue buyer
and seller (Juston or whatever) sounded more real than this. At first I think
well. just a guy that is very young, and thinks he is a semi-pro or something.
But it goes on and on and it starts to look more and more like he is just jacking
everyone around. I wonder if anyone on here knows this guy.

Yes Jack, he is jacking everyone, I believe I know his last name, first the story of his family tree.
Many people are at a loss for a response when someone says, "You don't know Jack Schitt." Now you can intellectually handle the situation.
Jack is the only son of Awe Schitt and O. Schitt. Awe Schitt, the fertilizer magnate, married O. Schitt, a partner of Kneedeep &. Schitt Inc. In turn, Jack Schitt married Noe Schitt, and the deeply religious couple produced 6 children: Holie Schitt, Fulla Schitt, Giva Schitt, Bull Schitt, and the twins: Deep Schitt and Dip Schitt.
Against her parents' objections, Deep Schitt married Dumb Schitt, a high school drop out. After being married 15 years, Jack and Noe Schitt divorced.
Noe Schitt later married Mr. Sherlock, and because her kids were living with them she wanted to keep her previous name. She was known as Noe Schitt-Sherlock.
Dip Schitt married Loda Schitt and they produced a nervous son, Chicken Schitt. Fulla Schitt and Giva Schitt were inseparable throughout childhood and subsequently married the Happens brothers in a dual ceremony.
The wedding announcement in the newspaper announced the Schitt-Happens wedding.
The Schitt-Happens children were Dawg, Byrd, and Hoarse. Bull Schitt, the prodigal son, left home to tour the world. He recently returned from Italy with his new bride, Piza Schitt.
So now if someone says, "You don't know Jack Schitt", you can correct them. Not only do you know Jack, you know his whole family!

Shake off the haters..always strive to do your best!
Name of Bar and Day of the Week?
Well.. you saying you are a "semi pro" made me a bit curious.. I remember I used to say the same thing when I was around 21-22, and I was deluding myself.
For clarification... In fairly recent regional 8-ball events in AA/AAA divisions, I have multiple alternate break matches where I broke and ran 4 out of my 5 breaks. And a few of those went hill-hill.Which meant that my opponents were good amateurs as well, and capable of running 3 or 4 out of 5 themselves. And I think is assuming we are all in dead stroke and warmed up from playing a few matches.
SO, to analyze it within terms of barbox 8 ball, which is what I would assume you are playing... A "pro" would be expected to run 8 or 9 out of 10 racks. This performance level is pretty much born out by observing the last couple of rounds of the U.S. bar table 8 ball championships.. So, a "semi-pro" would maybe be expected to perform slightly below this.. Maybe at an average of 7 or 8 out of 10 racks run.
In short, I don't think you realize that your level, while "semi" dominant over the local bar players you play against, is not as high as you think. You need to get yourself over to the biggest pool hall you can find, and get your head beat in a few times so you can realize that you are not helping your game at all by continuing to play the people you are playing.
People know who is hogging the only table in the house. One of these days you will have the table all to yourself- people will stall and stall and stall, doing whatever it takes to frustrate you as much as you frustrate them.
Bar tables are cheap, don't take up much room - buy one and stay at home and play the ghost, no one will hate you for that.
Or maybe you are just another banger who ran the table once, here trolling to convince everyone you are a great 'near pro' bar table player who never loses.
I'm sure there are a few here that will give you a chance to prove your skill, for cash.
Really, what's your motivation for continuing to play at a one-table location where no one except you can run more than three balls?

You run the table from opening till closing and you complain the tourneys last too long? Something don't sound right here!
