It was great to do the commentating with Jeremy Jones during this terrific match up between these two super talented One Pocket players. It ran for four days and was neck and neck all the way to the finish line when Justin finally forged ahead and took down the victory. Congratulations to Justin...

Thanks for the Birthday wishes guys and a very merry and safe Christmas to you all. Happy New Year too! I had a great day thanks not in a small part to the OP.org gang. Tom

Happy Birthday you two, Happy birthday you two, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU TWO TOO. Tom

Happy Birthday Dr. Bill.

Thank you all for the kind words. They mean a lot to me. Teaching this game means as much to me as all the years I spent as a player. And a teacher's greatest reward comes in the appreciation of those who choose to listen. And thanks to Ray for putting on such a terrific presentation. He has...

Adam, How ya doing? I try not to encourage my students to gamble with me but some do feel they get more out of the experience that way. A friend of mine came up with an interesting way to make a game which force us both to give a concerted effort. The first game was played even for whatever...

John, I hope you will at least consider upping the entry fee. Any of us who chooses to pay the expenses to travel to one of these events can easily afford it. The player auction doesn't help much. As an example. In Chitown I bought myself and afterwards found that I had to come in second just to...

Lou, you are certainly entitled to your opinion, I on the other hand will stick to mine. I wonder what the other members think about it. How bout a poll? Camaraderie is fine but there is more to a pool tournament than just that. If all we want to do is meet up for a party than that's okay by me...
