that is ronnie
ronnie hit chicago as part of the video series when ronnie came to the states and went to several cities to "hustle"
he also played scott frost and jeneatte the black widow if i recall correctly
winning some and losing more

He came to California and we set up a meeting at California Billiards to play some one pocket. He played Bob Jewett some eight ball that made it to filming, but after a couple games of one pocket with me and some interviews with Bucktooth and I, we never made the cut. They met Scott Frost in San Francisco later and they also played eight ball and included it in the series.

Ronnie and the whole crew were very nice and the one thing that stood out about him was he is in great shape and very fit.

It was obvious he did not care much for the slow pace of one pocket and they must have decided eight ball was the way to go because of it's popularity over the world. Maybe one pocket will reach that status someday, but we are a select group in the world of pool, but way ahead of where we were a few years ago.

Please elaborate Ghost!

Tom...just as Larry & John already reported, Ronnie was in Chicago as part of his U.S. tour...for publicity, he played 8ball with Nick - iirc, they played a race to 5 or 7, but I don't remember who won...

One other thing though..I asked Ronnie to play some friendly games of One Pocket for $30-$50 a game, but he said his schedule didn't allow him time for it - if he woulda played me, you can be sure that my game plan was to squeeze that triple-straight shooter, to where he'da thought he was playing an Anaconda...:heh

Next to One Pocket, there's nothing better than a game of 'white ball'..:cool:...if they're betting high, then the bet might be for 1 goat :eek: playing cheap, prolly just for 1 rabbit...:heh...pockets look pretty tight.

I love all the the chip marks on the wall where balls have hit the wall over many years.
