Here is a few of the feature/gambling table. Bill turned the table sideways and built a long bar down one side then added tinted glass to the small barnext to the bottom rail so rail birds there won't interrupt the players. So he made a Pit area. The tinted glass is a great feature!

Love it!!! Thanks Bill and all the guys who are coordinating this event!!! I’ve got a few days to learn how to bank. Does spin affect bank shots? I’m messing around with the concept. All’s done but the playin’!!!

To be perfectly honest... No it doesn't. Closing one eye is the best method for a beginner learning how to bank. I usually close both eyes right before contact, that's a more advanced method i personally use. Also keeps that pesky chalk dust out of your eyes. Hope this helps.

7 locals one hour after announcement! Let's get her done! Remember, this is One Pocket.org's week. John will be directing all events, so give a clap for him.

Damn Bill.... Thanks.... but... We also have our friends helping out... Miller, John and Jeannie, Matt, Chuck, YOU and Steve for letting us use the .org name. And of course there are all the players who are going out of their way to hang out with us. I can't think of a nicer group of folks to spend three or four days shooting pool with.

Hey Bill, I ran into Kenny Loftis out here in Santa Monica CA. He's staying out here now for a while. Man can he play. He says he mentored under you and Rosie. He is tearing up the rails with some of the meanest banks I seen. Great young man.
