There was a mini-thread about David a year or so ago, but I don't recall the outcome. I watched Rhodes play several times at tournaments in the mid 1990's in California, although I believe he was from the NW. He was beating everyone. I recall one match in which he was playing Tony Annigoni. It was a race to 9. David was ahead 8-1. He broke, had a good layout, made the first ball, and Tony said, "That's good, David." He conceded the match.sharandrew said:David Rhodes one of the most talented/gisted players..... could beat anyone, say again could beat anyone. Had a gear beat Strickland 11-0 in Houston 20 years ago when Earl was player of the year, Ive seen a bunch of great players most of them David was right there with them........sad story David applied himself to other things then Pool
It seems to me he had to do some time for something drug related. I assume he's no longer playing pool these days. He had talent in spades.
