Update on the Des Moines pool scene

I'd have to check the Prairie Meadows Casino line on that...but I'm not so sure you won't still be favored 4-7 8 ball winner breaks. IF we play let's start with that and we can adjust from there.

I don't think either you or Bruce give yourselves enough credit for the way you guys play. You guys make it out like you are hacks who don't ever play, and that's not true, you guys hit em pretty good. It's hard to know how much weight you need.

When can you play?

How bout 3 going to 7 but if your on the hill, you only have to make 1 ball.

If you are going for best offer your offer needs to be more appealing then 4 to 7, not one ball backwards. Different idea though, I will give you that.

Sorry, I can't resist...JB, you should probably start by giving him 5-7 and go from there. jk of course.

It is ok, not all of us gamble all the time, or have been playing at a high level the last several years. Ask Brad, we did adjust periodically through the night and the last several sets ended up being close. Final set went 7-5. If whoever I play sets with spots me, I am more then willing to adjust if it isn't correct after playing for awhile. I am not the ***** to quit after being up with two to three sets at a spot if it isn't close. If you would like to offer that (5-7) all kidding aside we can definitely play that game :). LET ME KNOW, the bank closes at 5:30 and my credit is good.

Possibly, but we both also know how strong of an eight ball player you are so take that as a compliment. As for when we can play with that game I would have to look into it. PM me your number and we can maybe set that up. Still looking for other offers on games.

I like the fact that Matt and Bruce are tryin to find a game. I want to play them with whatever is fair. Hell, I just want to play!!

I want to play also, but I also don't want you to rape me again......(did I just say that out loud?) Okay, maybe that came out wrong, but you know what I mean.:ignore:

I'm with Matt, I've maybe gambled like 8 times in the last three years....and that was for pocket change, that probably didn't turn out in my favor. So, when it comes to gambling you guys are leaps and bounds ahead of us. Just ask Mike B....I had just beaten Harggins, and Justin, yet when I played him, it was like I had my head stuck up my ass.

I'm only looking for a game for the fun of it, plus I would like to get better at gambling. I will play anyone, but if they are looking to use me as an ATM machine it just wont happen. :kma:
 
Nice to see some matches getting lined up. I always wished there was a sports page column to who played who, the spot and winner. Much more interesting than the box score from one of 12586 basketball games that don't matter.:grin:

Since your name is Troy, I gather we can play like that too. I'm always available.

P.S. You can't slow play me to death though because that annoys me and I dont have the patience for it.

.....no slow play...:( looks like you're out Mike! ....:grin:
 
Spina- 8 ball 3 games to 11 and play for a benjamin. Longer set would make it more exciting!
Or we could play an ahead set to say 7 or something. I've never played an ahead set before but always wanted too!
9 ball call 8 race to 7. That was pretty close, we both won a set w/ that spot.

This weekend is fairly open as is next weekend.
 
What a night in BD...6 hours of 10ball is a long time. Good match though most definitely.

If you lose giving the 7 you shouldnt give the 6 ball, you only end up losing worse.

If you lose a bet, you should pay!!! Please people, if you gamble pay off your debts. Stiffers are the worst!!!

8 ball if we go that far will have to say 4 games to 11 or 3 to 9. 9 ball probably at the wild 8 now, especially since it never was wild when I had it. My break was not very good.

I will let you all know about next week. This weekend is probably out, as well as next Saturday for when I drive to Minnesota for Vikings game on Sunday.

How did you end up with Mike B ? Take it he didn't slow play you to death like you were worried about. :)

The other two can only be about Jamie, he was playing pet last night giving him the 7. I have no other news.

You know something funny i just thought about. The regular daily posters on this thread are some of the few people i know who pay off when they are done playing.

We could start there, I'm easy!!! Tomorrow would prolly work out if you could get away. If that don't work,would probably have to shoot for 2 weeks as I don't know about playing the friday after turkey day. Btw, whats the chemical in turkey that makes you sleepy?(or is it true that its just a myth?)

Lol, sounds good brotha. This weekend is probably shot, but I am on vacation all next week so I will let you know if I am available. T-Minus 8 hours to vacation....
 
OK Mike B. and I agreed to play last night some 10 ball with the 7. It was pretty close until 10 or 11 and by midnight he was 8 game winner ($20/game). Good match though, we both had some good moments and both made some mistakes. The guy is a machine though, I was totally worn out, I think he had about 6 hours left in the tank. Oh and if anyone ever tells you that you can’t break from the side in 10 ball they need to see Mike B. I’d say I broke at least 25 times, never 1 7 ball on the snap…that was a killer. Anyways thanks for the action Bennett, maybe you’ll make your way out more often now.

When I strolled in at 5 yesterday Pet and Jamie were playing 9 ball on the barbox. Pet was getting the 7 ball. Races to 8. They played this game until after me and Mike finished up. Pet got paid out a $100 from him at this point, another $175 was owed. Sooooo of course, Play one more set with Pet getting the 6 ball for $200, raise the bet and offer more weight. Needless to say Pet wins, asks for the cash and gets told his backer will pay him. Translation Pet is currently stiffed for $375. He asked me to post this on AZ since I like to put shit online, well it’s out there.

Please guys pay off your bets, if you gamble just bet what you can afford. No one is gonna not play cuz its too cheap. However you can ruin your action not payin off.
