most...anybody that has earned comfortably (non gambling) over and above a 9-5 for an extended period

that's a daunting near impossible task in pool, easy guesses would be alex, efren, earl, maybe mikka?


least...anybody that didn't quite do the above but maybe could have, Mark tadd maybe,

The 2 Willies - Masconi and Hoppe

How can people after all these internet years still be misspelling Mosconi?

I understand that on his little book, the cursive handwriting could mislead someone to think that it was spelled differently, but in this age, we know what is what.

That doesn't make it right

I don't see any evidence for a god. So I really don't follow that logic. Skill and proficiency in any given area is a combination of genes and enviroment.
Given those circumstances I would cast a vote for Efren Reyes.

I agree about God, there is no evidence. I was trying to be nice.

The natural talent Darwin talked about might be a better way of putting it.

Then how can the child of poor, uneducated parents be a child genius or prodigy?

I'm not gonna go into Darwins ideas or genetics here. It's a pool forum.but if you believe a talent is a gift from god, you have at the same time invoked that gods responsability for all the less fortunate people, whi try just as hard and don't make it.
The problem of sufffering is a questions that theology really don't have a good answer for.

Kim,

Agree with Efren. Was going to say Mike Sigel but his ego seems to have gotten in the way. Perhaps Ronnie O'Sullivan?

I don't want to discuss religion here. If this is a conversation you would like to have, please send me a PM.
