How to avoid death in a pool hall

[pwd72s]

Fun 30 minutes with a new york pool pro. Tony Robles...well known in pool circles. Fun parts are when he analyzes actors on TV and in movies trying to look like pool players. Some succeed, some don't. Also tips about pool itself...

Alcohol, pool cues and switch blades... Bad combo.

And there ya go. Describing the problem of that beautiful game played by ugly people...as Joe Rogan described it. Last night I watched an "Exhibition Match" on youtube. Race to 15 in 9 ball between Tony Robles and Earl Strickland. Earl a 3 times world champion and 5 times US Open champ. Recently held at Amsterdam Billiards, a sort of famous Manhattan pool hall.

Strangely, the only fight was on the pool table between 2 legendary players...the crowd watching seemed to be having a good time. As far as I could tell, nobody died..

(edit) One funny Tony quote in the video I posted...after showing on of the movie clips: "That shot is as possible as hitting the sun with a snowball..."

Sadly, it is movies and TV shows that deliver the bad image...

Pool doesn't kill people. People kill people.
