NO I didnt see it I miss a lot off pictures and posts. But I dont no howe I got it But I have the old Logo off this from Freddys Club. I dont no how I got it but I have it.
I made one off my biggest scores up thier on the escond floor. Thats Were Spurling Hung out he was one off my best coustomers. And Barry Wicker Scotty.
They had a big jewish click they all bet on Bob. He was thier Hero. I Won big money up thier. I layed it all down perfect. I started out playing Bob Cordum straight pool .
I lost 3 games real bad 50 point games. And then I got a big spot and everyone in the place bet on Bob.
And thier would be 15 names on the list betting on Bob. He had no chance winning even.
But I beat him 2 or 3 times for big money. And then he wouldnt play no more straight pool.
And I had two guys with me that wore suites. I said they worket at the stock market. Thier all millionares you can bet them whatever you want.
They will never say no. And then Bob Husled me too play 3 coushion Billiards
. I told him he is a world champion.
He playes wright under Bill Romaine. And he spots me 14 on 25 points. And Bob said I will spot you 10 points too 25 and I said I need more. I cant play.
And he said show some gamble . Iwill give you 12 points and I said ok.
I played him for 3 hundred dollaers a game. And he beat me 25 to 16 and 25 to 15. And I said I dont have a chance and he said you only gamble when you win.
I said no but im no fool either. I will play you the same way Bill romain Plays me 14 on 25. ecause I dont think Bill can beat you on youre table.
And I said I will play you saturday. A game off straight pool even. And a game off three coushion 14 on 25.
And they all said ok what Time I said I will be buy with my two friends the stock Brockers at ten oclock.
They said ok. I said bring lots off money because nobody can out bet these two stock brockers. And they said ok.
And saturdat camevand people were betting with both hands They had 22 two names on the sheet.
And Bob was betting 5 hundred a game. And Spidling was betting a thousand dollaers a game. And everyone was betting big because they all thought they were stealing.
Little did they no. And the two stock brockers said is that it. And we were betting like 8 thousand dollaersa game.
A game off straight pool and a game off 3 coushion. And I won both games pretty close games.
And when I would shoot a 3 coushion shot. I would bang at the balls. Hopeing too get lucky and lucking in some shots.
And If I would luck in a shot I would try real hrad too dun 2 or 3 dilliards.
So it would look like I got lucky too win. And Bob would be crying look how luck he is getting. That was music too my eares.
And I would win real big money. And Bob said He doesnt want too play no more pool only 3 coushion billiards.
And bob said he would give me 12 on 25 take it or leave it.
And I said ok oonly two more games. And I won the first game 25 to 23 and the second game 25 to 22.
And I would luck in a billiard and run one or two more. And that was driving Bob nuts.
And I said thats it. And Bob said I will play you some more tommarow. And I said my frieds work and the stock market.
And I sais wendsday. He said ok.
So wendsday he playeagain 12 on 25 and then we changed it to 10 on 25 they wound up was a kepte beating him and hiswhole click and then I beat Spurling real good too.
And then 3 guys but a gun too me going down the staiers and in thier car.
But I dont no howe many words I have left.
But Iwill finish up the whole story on my next email. Very interseting what happines.
.
I will tell you one off the creeps that was in with the 3 creeps. Freddy knowes him.
Scottie His dads name was Larry. He hit Meyer Siegale in the head with a gulf club. .
I sidnt no Scottie at the time or thee other two guys.
I walked down the staiers and The put the gun too me and said get in the car.
And they said give usall youre money so I did. I never played a tough guy. Take whatever I have its all youers.
And they thought they were real smart and hwe slick they were and howe easy it was.
And I said you have everything I have even my cue stick can I go nowe.
And he sais we dont no if we are going too let you go. I said you got the money what else do you want.
I dont no you guys I have nothing against you. And they wanted too show howe tough they were. I never gave them a reason for getting mad at me.
I handeled it the nicest way I new. Then one off them treatened me.
And then I said You have no Idea what you are up against. And he said what do you mean.
I said you see that car behind you do you no who that is.
They said no. Well he will follow you wereever you go and when his crew showes up youre all history. Do you underseand that.
They only chance you have is too give me back my money and cue stick and forget about what happened.
And I said it doesnt mayyer what happines too me because your not going to be around either unless you let me go.
And they thought I was bluffing. And I said make a turn the next block and see if the car keeps followeing you.
And it did. And then they turned again and the man in the car started too wave his pistole at them.
And they thought they seen a Goast. And I said this man is a cold blooded killer. Not just a tough guy. And lis crew is the worst.
The only out you have is too stop the car and let me out. And give me back my money and cue.
And thats what they did they pulled up too the next street and let me out. with the money and cue.
I didnt say anything else. I got out off the car and the drove off and my guy picket me up.
And he said what do you want too do with those guys. He said I got thier liscence number. If you need it. I said no just forget about it.
But nobody new that this man was in the pool room every day I was thier too watch my back.
He would get a pool table in the corner all by himself and nobody new hwo he was or what he did.
He loosket like a square playing pool by himself. But he was thier with me. And not even the two stock broocker new who he was. Or that he was thier with me.
But that was a real good action spot. And years latter that Scottie came down too bensingers and he would hang around.
But I never said noyhing too him about what happened. And he new better then too say anything.
Because he new who those people were. And he would come down too Bensingers once in a while and ask me everything ok.
I said yes everything is ok. But I always would think ahead off time. What too do. And not too get in a trap were you win the money and dont get too leave with it.
I had Quite a few incedences like that. But if you live on the edge anything can happen.
And when I went too MCC in Chicago. I herd the story about when I beat Bugs for 18 thousand dollaers.
That they followed us in the snow for two days and if we would have hocket upand splite the money we would have both been history.
I told Bugs the story and he said Ya we both would have been history.
And I was in Mcc and I was on the second bunk. !0 black guys came around me.
I had no clue what was going too happen. And I was Plaenty scared.
And the leader said you the man that beat out man Bugs. And I said yes.
He said you ok with us. Your one off us and you got whatever we have. He tols one off his members too give me the bottom bunk.
And tahe the top bunk. And his member said you going to give this homkie my bunk.
And he pointed at me and said you see that man thier.
HE IS BLACKER THAN YOU ARE. And i told Bugs what happened and Bugs said thats the greatest complimente I could have got.
And I told the leader boy was I lucky he said why. I said because whenever I would beat Bugs he would come and look for me for his snap back concederation.
And I said what if you guys thought we were spliting the money. And we both would have gotten killed for nothing.
He said that would have been a big mistake. But the strongest thing around Blacks is not that you have big money but they respect talante.
And the leader told me it wouldnt have been nothing too robe me and take all the money.
But because off Bugses respect too me and me beating thier champion I got a pass.
And thier are lots off more stories.
About Bugs and me playing pool. You can win the money but if you dont figure out ahead off time howe too protect it.
Then you are a target to get histed.
