May of this year. I beone of them accidental quiters.

 

[MoFo]

Me too on both accounts. I wanted to quit, just didn't think anything could drag me away from the cancer sticks. I was amazed at how painless it ultimately was.

Funny part was, I was just seeing what they tasted like. Nex thing I knew I hadn't bought a pack of smokes in over a week and still had some left...... That's when I figured I musta quit.

 

[vapin Grampa]

Holy crap. I put a pick in my profile I am not handy with that stuff

I spent my youth playing pool up until I was 21. It's a different game in the uk to the USA. We play 8 ball pool, choose between spots or strips/red or yellow, and then first to clear theirs up and pot the black You play 9 ball?

 

[vapin Grampa]

Nope. No 9 ball (whatever the hell that is) we played 8 ball. Colors/stripes call your shoots. Last pocket..

 

[Hobby Kid]

Do you have to name each pocket for each ball? You can't do jammies?

 

[CaFF]

Hiya!

Yeah, I used to play a lot of pool too, some APA/TAP league play and lots of bar pool.
Mostly bar rules call-pocket stuff, except in leagues or if good players wanted to play call-pocket/ball in hand.

Not much good at 9-ball, prefer 8-ball.

WELCOME Grampa!!!! Accidental quitters unite!

Just have to call the pocket for the 8 ball.

 

[vapin Grampa]

We always played winner rules. The worst was call every ball with 8 ball in the last pocket.

 

[Hobby Kid]

Totally! Naming every pocket was daft and took the fun out of it. You guys over there hold the cue very different to us. We make a bridge. You loop your finger around it. Never could play that way.

They made a rule here years back now where at least two balls have to hit the cushions when breaking because players were just tapping the pack like they were scared to let any of the balls lose for their opponent. But it took the fun out of playing so they changed it so you have to smack it open.

 

[vapin Grampa]

We use the bridge or the hook for shooting. Ya gotta bust the balls when ya break or you can't drop any off the break... That's the only way to win.
