I know nothing about money games. What's giving the 7? Offer out on the 6? Etc?
Is there an online dictionary somewhere for this stuff?

When Earl hits that gear, NOBODY can fade that.
Damnit. Never had cash. No wonder I'm clueless.
Can I get some at the pool room if all I have is the cue??
Of course they all have that gear,most top/pro players do.This 'hitting a gear' is not a one-way street that only Earl can travel on.
You can say the same for quite a few players...Buddy Hall, Mike Sigel,
Billy Johnson....etc.
he suggests in his documentary that he conquered Houston and that all the best players in the country passed through
keith's input would be awesome
who are the top gambling guy's all time in keith's eyes?
There's a course for this. It's available at your local pool room. Prerequisites are a cue and cash.
OK, that's a joke. Giving someone the 7 ball in 9 ball means that the 7 ball is them counted for that player as a money ball. Giving a shortstop the break and the 7 on a bar table is referred to as "unwise".

Cool story Jam tell Keith thanks.
Me and Earl had a couple ball-banger sets over there in Richmond, Kentucky. Never forget them. I lose one 11 to 10, and I win one 11 to 10, back to back years. I think it was '85 or '86. Big crowds. Great shots. After every great shot, the crowd would become unglued. It was a real nice atmosphere for playing pool, and there were a lot of gamblers around there as well, which made it all more the merrier. Those were the good old days. Pool has never been the same since, sorry to say.

Before Weenie Beanie died, he took Timmy Scruggs,my son and me out to dinner at the US OPEN 9 BALL and told us a story about how he played Earl, Earl gave him the 4 ball for 500 a game after being down 8 games he warned Earl to stop crying about being out of line on almost every shot so after Earl ran out the next game Weening quit. The ending of the story he predicted Earl would win the US OPEN Tournament which he did. He crushed everybody and never lost a match. The year was 2000 Weenie's real name was Bill Staton. Also Weenie said it was in the 80's when he lost to Earl.
