Yeah, Mika made the same visit right after winning the world championship and won ONE game of 1-hole. So from that point on, he was champion of the world minus Long Island.

I remember two great shooters in the mid 60's from Kansas City. The first was Johnny Morrow, a child prodigy who quit at about 16, came back in his 20's. He was a legend in the early 60's. The second player was Gary ?, an ex Marine, and a fireman in K.C. He had the best stroke of any player I have ever seen. I have been trying to remember his last name for years.
Anyone remember him playing on 47th and Troost help me with his name.
When I lived in Montana Terry Boucher, now deceased, was as close to pro as you can be. I hear his son Jeff has followed in his footsteps.

Roy & Billy were both good players and when they had their mixture right, could be great players. I wouldn't consider either one a monster though, since I have had success playing both of them and I am a long way from being a monster player. John Henderson
I saw Eugene about 7 mos ago. He told he was married, working and living in Texas. I think think he was best bar box player of his time. He is a friend, I may be biased but I think I can get many to agree with me. P.S. Jr Rogers is a good friend of mine, and I know Vernon very well. Ask Keith, Buddy Hall, Grady, Ronnie Allen, etc. about them. {great money players}crawfish said:

Older guys may know who Im talking about. And he had gamble.
He beat the Pretty Boy Floyd on Accu-Stats I believe if I remember correctly.
Could play one-pocket with just about anybody alive and they didnt have to like the action.
I watched him play several times and he could play all games jam-up but onepocket was his best game.

There are so many funny stories about Roy "the Cook".hilla_hilla said:
One time a road player came to College Billiards in San Diego and was taking down everyone. When no one else stepped up to play, he started barking to everyone about how the room had nothing but scardy cats. A couple of guys decided to go get "the Cook". They went outside to the dumpster enclosure where Roy was sleeping and woke him up. When he showed up to play, he looked pretty roughed up. The road player just looks at Roy and wonders if this was a joke. They get to playing and, of course, Roy just wipes the floor with the guy.
I told Roy that I saw him years ago beat Danny Di Liberto, running a 5-pack, at a major Tahoe tournament. Sadly, because of his chosen lifestyle, he had no memory of this.
Sorry to hear that. I had just been thinking after reading the prior post that David would probably have been a champion if he could've stayed out of slam long enough...asiasdad said:
