So you like to approach women in bars?

Funny story here...a young and cute South Korean girl out on the town in Vegas with some friends. An unknowing but hopeful local would be Lothario saw her watching a game on the place's pool table...he approached and asked her if she'd like him to teach her how to play pool? Her friends urged her to go ahead. Yes, the results were funny. (edit) Should you watch the 20 minues video, edited to cut out the times of between shots and racking, keep in mind that Albin has a world 9 ball chapionship in his recent past.

I'm confused how something that looks like a tournament is an impromptu schooling?

I like pool, but it's about as fun to watch as golf.

That's because it's a BS story. He's known for them.

The video posted was a tournament...the "impromptu schooling" has no video...I wish those there had done so. The tale gleaned from one who was there. She was in Vegas for another tourney held before this footage. I didn't check for validity...some stories are too much fun to want to do that.
(edit) All I can verify by records is that she was in Vegas for a tournament she placed 3rd in. The story itself? Hearing it, I treated it like reading an old Mark Twain story...for enjoyment purposes only.

Ah, got it. Funny story that was then accompanied by unrelated (to the story) video of said cute Korean billiard pro.

Yup. Related only in that the video shows her cue artistry. Next imagine the embarrassment of trying to pick her up by offering to teach her how to play pool.

I have to think that should have been pretty funny.

South Korean girls approach me. No idea why, but I have a look they seem to like.

This morning. It was in a cafe. My friend Bruce said to the waitress "When you get home would you phone your mum and thank her for making you so gorgeous." She burst out laughing and said "Thank you. I think my dad had a bit to do with it too, at least I think it was him hahaha."

It certainly seemed to have worked.
