Just for laughs

The following was lifted from a billiards posting boards. Players describing "moves" made in order to gain an advantage.

"About ten years ago I lost my drivers lic. for DUI. One night I had a few beers at home and wanted to take a cab to the local pool room. My wife said she would take me and pick me up. When we got there she said she was going to sit and watch me play for an hour or so. Translation=make sure I only had a few beers instead of the hard stuff and the weed that most of the guys I hung out with had.

Anyway, we walk in and I get a table in the back with the bangers. A few minutes later this girl who played on the reginal tour comes over and asked if I wanted to play some $50 9-ball sets, race to 5. I said sure, as we had played a few times before and I always won, and she refused to take any weight. My wife is already with the dirty looks because she's young and pretty with jeans she must have painted on her.

I win the lag and rack and start stroking for the break. But before I could pull the trigger the girl shouts, "Same thing we always do, right JT? Then she says, "I win you pay me $50, you win I give you a BJ just like last time?"

I thought my wife was going to come unglued by the look we were both getting. I said, you're funny to her, trying to lighten the moment.

I couldn't make two in a row after that with my wife staring me down every second. The girl won easily. That was the best move anyone ever pulled on me in 50 years. Johnnyt "
