I would love to go on the road in the US, not just to shoot pool, but to gamble and just to be able to visit all the best action spots Pretty much all of NY, FL and IL states are full of constant action , New Orleans, is a real hot spot for high action also Daz, Which room did you play in, when you were at NYC?

What about Chelsea Billiards, or Amsterdam Rooms in Manhatten? , there's plenty of good action there , OR if you didn't get action there, you could've drove the extra few miles to Syracuse or Philly Willie

Ah yes, I keep forgetting that the Amsterdam room had a new owner a few years back It sounds like Syracuse or Philly might've been a better option for you, maybe on up into Canada, to Toronto , but yeah, there are times where it can be a nightmare to get action Willie [ This message was edited by: TheWizard on 2006-12-20 06:12 ]

Unreal that great players such as Ginky and Hernandez looking for spots but even worse that they got you up there and changed the arrangements. Not uncommon in our world for sure. A few years ago, Steve Knight and Andy Richardson were on the road in the US and word spreaded quickly of chance of getting some action around the country. An offer came in for Gerry 'The Ghost' Watson to play Steve Knight in Canada for $100,000 straight up, level. They went up there only to find he was being backed by some 'undesirables' and the level spot changed to Gerry wanting the 8 and the breaks.
Steve and Andy had enough experience to get out of there, thick and fast. No question that Steve could have given him the 7, but on Gerry's table, in his own room with the local mob backing him.......nobody needs that action.
I saw Hernandez mash Efren pretty bad a few years ago with my own eyes. Sad state of affairs when these 'top' players resort to these tactics just to tempt you into a game. Dyno, play him level next time and let him have it.

Well funny pal!!!
Go to Dallas..u will get action Howdy, Derby city classic will be held from 5th Jan till 13 or 14th of Jan in Louisville,Kentucky,USA.U can have as much action as u want non stop.Tournament is for banks,one Pocket,9 ball and stright pool.But derby city is also known for non stop action. 5 $ a game to thousands of $ a set.Players,gamblers and their `stake horses` from all over the unites states gather and have hearts content of action in pool.It is too late for you guys to plan to attend.You can plan for next year and have the hotel reservations very early.You will have unforgettable moments.cheers
