At the rates the Casino was charging, that ice water was prolly pretty expensive. :D

Ive seen Danny D play in the 60's to the 90's. Tournament and gamble. Ive seen him run 125 and out more times that I can remember. For cash. Ive seen him run strings of 9 ball racks. 8 and out many times. But dont take my word for it. Hes still alive and you can talk to him yourself about it.

Incredible. No laughable.

When I got out of the Army in 1970 I went back to Coral Gables to live. I thought I was hot stuff cleaning everyones clock at our bases. I went to North Miami looking for a game and they pointed out Danny. Lets just say I did better in two sets against the "school teacher" when I was in college, (won three games in two sets) than I did against Danny. Needless to say I didnt go looking for him again. Funny thing is, his son Danny and I used to play against each other in Louisville as kids.

What I like to do is stream the top pros while having a top pro comment with me during the action. It is amazing that pressure later on in the tournament causes top players to make crucial mental mistakes that lead to a breakdown in mechanical play. I am talking about a favorite being behind and the next thing you know instead of keeping calm and regrouping, they start jumping up, or shooting too quick to "catch up".
If you watched gaulf last Sunday you saw a prime example of pressure leading to a collapse. If he had taken the time to regroup........

I'm not so sure. He hit the ball poorly all day Saturday and Sunday. I get the impression that he can handle pressure about as good as anyone. My guess is Sunday was just one of those days for him. (Hell, I even let you break even with me once :D )

Which reminds me... whatever happened to that $40 I used to owe you ? :)
