Checker vrs Chess, Art vrs paintings, 9ball vrs 14.1
Once, an older guy asked me if I knew anything about art. I told him I didn’t care for Piccaso, colors everywhere no direction but I liked Rembrandt for his attention to detail. He said " son, your gonna make a fine straight pool and one pocket player some day". Years later I understood his thinking. 9-ball is a good game but bland, its color by number. Where as 1 hole or 14.1 has texture and it forces you to create. Its tough being a purist so young......
