You are like the less cool, more liberal version of myself

I play pretty consistently. I have America's largest pool room just 15 minutes away. Over 70 tables.

I play 8 ball on 7 foot tables and 9 ball on 9 foot tables.

Occasionally, I go to bars with friends and they always want to play pool. I always pretend to be really bad at it, because nothing kills drunken pool fun like someone running racks. They don't know that I play for 4 hours a day, almost every day. But the other night, my buddy was talking a lot of shit and when he said "you don't even know how to play pool", I ran a few racks on him and he didn't want to play anymore.

Fuck that guy.

One of the big reasons I stopped playing was it got to the point I couldn’t go to a pool hall on a date with out being hassled by people wanting a chance to play me to either get a name by beating me or trying to get a chance at getting their money back.

Got annoying and basically stopped playing for this reason.

I use both bridges, but snooker which is much harder IMO, they solely use the open bridge.

I use both playing snooker as well.

I've got 16 balls and an arm like Nolan fkn Ryan.

Around my area it's hard to find a billiard place these days. Use to be a good hang out place when there was one. And I'm a below average player. I can never get really good at it.

Lol......Danny McGoorty for the win !
That's where I learned it from. Saved it in my mental folder and it sure saved my ass then.
Kept a Chicago Bankroll ready too. Never got to use it though.

The broom stick option was from either that or a Ralph Greenleaf / Johnston City hustling story. Was worth a hundred dollars in the summer. Easier than it sounds.

Oh and the thumb inside the condom trick. Hee Hee ! Wasn't I an asshole ?

If i think about it, the old bum was almost like the raunchy old uncle I never had.

RIP.

Nice!

Didn't play with a broomstick but I did play w/the butt of my cue a couple times. Yeah it's not as hard as it sounds lol, fun too. The worst things I played with were a frozen snickers bar and an overturned barstool. The snickers, you had to smack the shit out of it, like you're trying to punch a dart through a 2x4. It's only good for a couple of shots. The barstool now that was really awkward .
