I am very curious to read your opinions on who your list of top 10 players in the US that work a regular type of 9 to 5 job?

I guess these players would not be considered pro because their main source of income is not coming from pool, unless of course, they still make more money playing pool then their regular 9 to 5 job pays.

Also, please list the city where the players shoot out of locally, if you know that info.

Thanks for your opinions about this, and you can list more then 10 names if you want.

Many don't know him but angelo innis is great player from northeast that works full time. Wish I could afford to put him in one of these big barbox 8 ball tourneys. Just won erie pa selects this spring and when catches a gear, Amazing to watch.
 
Larry Nevel

Umm, I'd have to go with Larry Nevel. He's a 9-5 guy nowadays and just snapped off another Wisconsin tourney yesterday.
 
Bank Player

There is a bank player that I think works construction right off I cant name him one of the big names. I think hes won a derby.
 
I know a top player that tells about his income from making donations to sperm banks. He claims he is making money hand over fist. Players are pounding out a living any way they can. They claim it actually builds up wrist muscles, strengthens fingers for making a solid bridge and breaks you of the habit some have in throwing their elbow out on the final swing. "Stroking to make cash" is what the hustlers call it. With much practice and professional coaching, you can become an ambidextrous shooter and never have to use a bridge.
This player told me he always makes a large deposit in the bank every Friday because of his job. “Yea, I carry a wad of money too and when I play pool, I don’t let people lowball me on a bet either.” It’s not as if you can let this kind of money slip right through your hands.”These are the players that you can find yourself in a sticky situation with in any game. Some will still ask for a spot.
I declined to shake his hand and I put my chalk back in my pocket after every shot.
Personally, I think some people are whacked out.

Played some college pool against him and his team about 10 years ago at the U of M tournament. Really good player and a good dude. Had one of the hardest/loudest 9 ball breaks I've ever seen/heard.
