.....you have enough money for lunch, or table time, and there's no question that you're going hungry.

..... You start to visualize tangent lines on everyday objects even when you're not playing

...... Anytime you get a few minutes free you start weighing if there's enough time to get to the pool hall and back.....

.......you would rather play pool than see your girlfriend/wife

.......you can't sleep from replaying a miss in your head a thousand times....
 
...when you hang around with other pool addicts on an internet forum :D

There's a 5-step program to cure pool addiction.

The first step is to admit you have a problem

The second step is to practice your stroke....
 
....when the roof of your car is covered in blue chalk marks because you didn't break your cue down....

....when AZB is your home page....

....when you watch a match and shout at the tv because they're choosing the wrong option....

....when you get up in the middle of the night because that kicking system you just learned is asking to be practiced, and you know you can't sleep until you've got the hang of it....

....when you have to stop yourself from writing more in a response to this thread because you know you could go on for hours....

.......Yeah I'm addicted
 
When you toss out all your old soccer/baseball trophies, but keep your APA session points winner plaque lol :D
 
....when you find yourself actually doing the cueing into a bottle drill (suckers).

....you try out your new bridge with a pen or pencil.

....you have chalk lying everywhere. It's on your dresser, in your car, in your coat pocket, in the trash can next to the washing machine, but there's none by the table!
 
.... When you find out you are going on a trip and the first thing you do is search for local pool halls....
 
....when your hand naturally forms a bridge while you're at your desk

....when you arrive to a new town one of the first things you do is find the pool hall(s)

....when you plan family vacations around larger tournaments (sorry Disney, Vegas wins out again this year)

....when that five extra minutes of practice turns into 2 hours
 
maybe its when every thread you start is

when every thread you start begins with


WHATS THE BEST

chalk
tip
cue
cuemaker
cloth
pool light
case
bumper
way to hold my mouth when i draw the ball
way to hold my mouth when i break
way to hold my mouth when i use left english
etc etc etc etc

...when you pull your $1000 cue out of your $500 case and complain about the $8 drink you just bought at the bar.
...when the whiteboard in your office illustrates the last shape you missed.
...when all of your pants have blue stains at the left pocket.
 
... when your most prized possession in your closet is an old Camel Pro tour shirt, that's me!

You give up the nutz just to see if you can outrun them. Like 7 games to 9 on a barbox with a player who's the same handicap...and win!
