Update on the Des Moines pool scene

Theres another board this Saturday at Stix that Kristen is running if you want to play. You can qualify till the end of this month I believe.

I would but there gonna replay the board I already was on, I shoulda never lost on that board, only time I wish I wouldnt have won the lag.
 
Banned from APA? I thought everyone could play and anyone can win? :rolleyes:

But congrats Matt -- musta chased the demons back into a corner... A free trip to Vegas is a good trip to Vegas.

Unfortunately it is only to qualify for Regionals...that is the tourny to go to Vegas. Baby steps :grin:. I still am taking the 6 from Bradley here soon Mr. world beater. I might bring a copy of your book to autograph if you wax me.
 
I wasn't talking about betting a lot, same old $50 sets to try to help Neo get some money and confidence back. Just trying to help a friend out, you know how that goes.

Anyways no need to woof about it, if Jamie wants to play I'll tell Jody. As an aside I think Jody was pretty cool about playing even one hole that day only being up a set and a loser getting 9-7 overall. Lot of character there IMO.


you don't stake people anymore.

plus they play bet your own.
 
Everyone is voting for the Mosconi Cup right ?

I voted for Hillbilly, i like him and think he can be a good team player.

Go vote guys, only 1 per IP address, so your vote does count.

I think Stevie is gonna get it but I'll add to Hatch's total. He whooped Appleton who is on that team so at least we know he can beat one of those guys. Either way USA is gonna be the underdog for the 4th straight year.
 
Exactly what I was thinking.

That's exactly what most people were thinking. Big Dogs is gonna start some monthly tournaments so you have a reason to come visit us more often. I have no idea what the tournaments will be however I read it on the front door sign written in sharpie so i know its true.

And, to be real honest, who cares if it is there own money or not. When I am gambling, as long as I get paid I don't care who's money it is.

Getting paid is the most important part. Posting up usually works unless someone waits til you go outside and smoke a cig, runs to the post money takes half of it out, then sneaks out the door before the set is over, then you find out at least they left you YOUR own money and took theirs before they bailed on the set. That never happens in DSM either.
 
Hopefully you don't mind a Minnesotan hijacking your thread yet again, but it has been confirmed there will be a $50 ring game 2pm at Jimmy's in Columbia Heights, MN this Saturday the 7th. Also a $30 one-pocket tourney noon the next day (lightly handicapped) in case you stick around town.

The drive from Des Moines to Minneapolis isn't too bad, I came down one Saturday afternoon to Big Dogs. I-35 can be nice at times :) If you guys want some action, head on up!

feel free to PM me if you want more info

Jimmy's Pro Billiards
4040 Central Ave NE
Columbia Heights, MN 55421

Someone who i consider very smart told me tonight.

When you argue with the idiots, you become an idiot.



I'm done with you. I proved my point.

True colors came out tonight.

2 faced people don't win again.

I'm done with this for a couple days mike and mike. Frost go ahead and keep telling your bullshit lies and trying to use people as puppets. This one saw right through it though.

Cya at the pool hall.

I almost took the time to multiquote everything you wrote this morning. You claim I lied, I literally read him everything written by the both of us. He got upset for his own reasons. It's not about playing people like puppets, I thought it was out of line what was said so I read it to him. Others absolutely agree. When I get a text saying that you puked online that clearly means I'm not the only one who read it that way.

With that said I hope you and Jody remain close pals. Me and you won't be cool but then again how cool were we in all reality? Cool enough to make a game was about it. Like I told you thanks for saving me money in the long run.

I'm about the money when it comes to pool. I have enough friends and family outside of pool I don't need to share a beer or my life story with anyone. I tell people out of my own mouth I look out for my best interests first. If I think a guy can win, I want in...if not I want the other side. I've been in on stakes with and against lots of people, it's about the cash and nothing else.

I was on the phone with Jody when you called and even when you texted and called me a coward and all the other nice things you had to say to me. I even texted telling you I was on the phone but since you couldn't just wait a few mins and then went off on a tangent, that's why you didn't get a call back, no other reason. I don't care to discuss anything about the situation with you, end of the day I like Jody enough to let him know what I read, others do as well.

End of the day it's more of the same, since it's clear there is no gambling to be done I got nothing further to say on the topic. If it ain't about money I can care less. I showed people a lot of respect that was not even reciprocated in the least bit. I can move on with what I'm doing and not miss a beat. I have plenty of people to bet with, same as you do. I will say I am a bit surprised by you right now though because you gave me at least a 30 minute tongue lashing about typing stuff online that you didn't say to someone first. Pot meet kettle only a month later though.

It is what it is, and that's about all I have to say....maybe have a half barrell left for this nonsense as I'm sure you will try to bash and convince ppl I am 2 faced etc. Fact is I do look out for myself first and anyone else after. Fact is I'm not shady and can appreciate a good hustle when it's on the square. I like money not noise. I hit balls for free with friends and have a proven character. I don't put my own neck on the guillotine. I also know that if you don't stand for something you will fall for everything. I'm cool with the "dark side" as it was eloquently phrased referring to the people that I chose to get closer with here in town. Maybe those guys can't win all the time but they are winners in life and that's what counts. Even if I do say so myself, I'm also a winner...standing ovation for me.

Silly me thought the phrase went more something like..."Never argue with a fool; onlookers may not be able to tell the difference." ~ Mark Twain

I think I proved my point as well. I'll edit my post above this one if that resolves the nonsense. To be clear we are done with each other, I'm ok with that. It's a shame but everyone can't get along all the time.
 
I don't know why people are getting mad about what is being said in this thread. I just look at it as whoofing and needling. Isn't this stuff common for pool players?

Yes, singles on Friday. I think you are already signed up, but you might want to double check that since they have filled up in the past.

I'm looking forward to it, and yes, you better practice up!
