I think a lot of people get entertainment and sharking mixed up. Talking, running around the table, and talking to the crowd while your opponent is shooting is sharking…not entertainment. It might be entertainment for the crowd, but it's sharking/cheating to the other player.
Pool players don't make $1,000,000 + a year. Few make a tenth of that, and there betting there own money or a stake horses. What other sport or game allows that kind of thing w/o a penalty where the player puts up his own money?
As far as barking and woofing goes, most of what their barking makes no sense at all and the little that does only to gambling pool players. Most new to the game say, "wtf is he talking about?" I say make your game away from the crowd, then come to the table and announce what the game is and what it's for if you want rail bets.
It's funny how Shane can make a game w/o all the BS and he seems to be quite entertaining to most. Johnnyt
