My grandfather hustled pool and craps in the 20's. I asked him how much he made and he said "around $3,000 a year." He taught me, my brother, and our three cousins how to play at their vacation house in the Russian River with a table he bought a big time club in SF, where they lived. I probably peaked at age 15-16, but loved the game, always 8-ball. I made a mental note that he was 80 years old and would beat me unless I sunk the 8 in 2-3 turns.

There was a picture hanging on the wall of that room of dogs playing poker.
