Tough 8 Ball Run

Played pretty well last night in leagues, winning 4 out of 5 games. Lost 10-0 the first game when Jim made an awesome run-out. Shot a 40...heres the runout. Didn't think there was room past the 4...but he got out!



Then a bank 8 to finish me off.



Our team went 4-2 and lost that round by 1 because of my goose-egg

Passing Lane Trickshot

Pretty popular shot done and is standard for many trick shot players. I can do it about 1 outta 10....Here's about a 1 minute video showing it in slow motion.



Here another interesting video I found for jump shots. Under 2 minutes...good slow motion and a close jump shot.

Pool Player Lottery Ticket

Couldn't help but buy a couple of these lottery scratch tickets, only down a buck since I hit $2. Sorry for the dull excitement here...all I got for now. Woulda been nice to hit a couple hundred instead of a gallon of gas.

Eric Yow Videos

Saw him in the semifinals of the trick shot magic against Dr Cue. I remember looking at his trick shot site 2 or 3 years ago....looks like he's come around.

Here's an old youtube video with 300,000 views that was uploaded in June of 2006.



Here's another clip from Eric Yow, acting like Tiger Woods!

Mid-season League Update

Pool leagues on Sunday went great yet again. Went 5-0 in leagues, with a 50-18 point spread. This brings my win streak to 7 and my record to 43-7 in this league. had a tough run out in my first game, the 8 ball was tied up and I went for rail-first shape.





My other option would have been to try and drive the cueball in between the stripes, but I didn't like my chances of getting a shot.





About two-thirds through our fall pool leagues, our team is in 1st on Sunday, and my record is 43-7 with 5 EROs





And on our high roller league our team is in 7th, but only 2 rounds out of 4th. We are the best Drifter's team out of 5, maybe we'll win a prize for that! I have a 30-35 record with 6 EROs...blown quite a few games and had 8 EROs against me.
