Niels feijin and parica. Hope you weren't betting on me either time!
Who was the best pool player you ever played in your pool career?
- Thread starter Lock N Load
- Start date
Aha, Robby Foldvari...I believe he still holds the high amateur run for
English billiards in Australia....600 and change.
...some 147s at snooker, also.
Is Peter Ceulemans related to the legendary Raymond (whom I had the honor to play a short race of 3-Cushion once)?
Greetings from Switzerland, David.

Peter is Raymond's grandson. I stopped by their room in Lier and Sir Raymond (he is, actually, a knight) was out at the time so I got to play Peter who took it easy on me averaging only about 1.4.
I've gotten to play some great players over here in Asia...
Efren, Lining, Gallego, Yukio Akagariyama, Naoyuki Oi, Kunihiko Takahashi, Lo Li Wen, etc.
However, the player that impressed me the most was Stuart Pettman (former snooker pro now playing pool out of Thailand). Just perfect form and stroke, I could just watch him play for hours on end.
Years back when I still lived in Canada, I also took my lumps from local monsters like Stan Tourangeau, Brady Gollan, and was once stupid enough to try my hand at one-pocket with Billy Palmer down in California (expensive lesson to say the least!)

Hey Tramp Steamer. I'm pretty confident about how I would have done in a race... not too good (unless it was a race to one
. Efren is such a beast! I also forgot to mention Mad Max and Mr. 400 in my original post. I've played a couple really good players in 3c, but nobody pro level yet. Pedro agreed to play some, but the weekend that I made it to San Diego, we never managed to get together. Thanks bud!Hey 9andout. Thanks, if I ever have the chance to play Bata again, I'll have to at least consider ducking him just to preserve my bragging rights of being undefeated! Btw: Nice work showing the 3 ball ghost where the bear s*** in the buckwheat! Take care.
In proper matches/tournaments?
I have played both Chris Melling and Gareth Potts at E8B - losing to them both.
