She did, indeed. Excellent commentary on one pocket. Sounds like she has played the game a lot.

I posted a question during the time she was on, but nobody picked up on it. It is probably a question that has been talked about before on 1p.org. Why is it that very few women play one pocket? That is true at least in my experience. What would make them more interested? Is there a distaff side of One Pocket?
It's likely for the same reason that most women don't play serious pool in general. It doesn't appeal to them.

I would think the women players would like one pocket alot
Because you dont need power on the break
So any advantage a male may have on the 9 ball break
Doesnt exist in onepocket
Great equalizer

Carla did a great job on the commentary. She plays out of Hard Times, Ballflower and makes the trip to Derby City and other tournaments. I think she is originally from Detroit and was around The Rack in its heyday.


There are some women who play it well. My old friend Mary Kenniston will play in the Seniors Tournament in Houston this year and she will surprise a few people with her game.
