[QUOTE="HoLeChit, post: 4136352, member: 35036"] But in a serious note, I used to play pool a lot. Quarter table and full size. I remember skipping school one day my senior year, going to the pool hall in Midwest city (I forget the name, JP’s?) and playing one day. Had some fun, realized it was a good time. Had some old guy come up and ask if he could play, I said yeah. I smoked him, he asked for a rematch and put $5 down. I took the bet, and man, I’ve never been sharked so bad in my life. It was a great lesson though, in pool and in life. What wasn’t good was that I then skipped at least half a day, 2-3 days a week the rest of my senior year to play pool. I continued to play for the next 5-6 years, at least once or twice a week. I got pretty good. At one point in time I rented a room in California from a guy who used to play pro, but I can’t find anything online about him. That was fun, and once he bet 3 months rent on a game. I turned him down, lol. I shouldn’t have though, that was the best game I’ve played in my life. I don’t play a ton anymore, but I should. I love it. The wife really enjoys it even. Is there anywhere good to play in OKC/north OKC area that isn’t a smoking bar? [/QUOTE]
