The thread about how to play the ball on the spot with the cue ball in the jaws in the back pocket was a really good one. A lot of different thoughts about what to do.


How about we have a little One Ball One-Pocket mini tournament one night (or two or three) playing with it set up like this:


Ball on the spot, cue ball in the jaws on the side of the pocket you want, shoot for your hole or play safe, its up to you.


Race to 3, single elimination, 20 bucks. Split it 60% for the winner and 40% for the runner-up.


We can get a couple of tables in the main room at night, sharking allowed by players and sweators alike, drugs and drinking are OK. We might have a good time and learn a thing or two. I think it would be fun.

I'm sure it would go quick so the old guys wouldn't be up too late.



Interested "players" so far:

stevelomako, onepockethacker, jtompilot, wgcp, Tennessee Joe6
