NH Steve,
I saw you with your 1P jacket on at DCC, which was nice by the way, but I noticed that the 8 ball was the head ball in the rack. I am relatively new to
1P, but the person introduced me to 1P got all over me one day when I racked the 8 as the head ball. He told me that this was a gesture of disrespect to my opponent and that the 8 should be kept to the interior or back of the rack. The basic premise was that placing the 8 as the head ball was equivalent to a derisive comment as to you opponent's playing ability. Has anyone else heard this?
