Hell man, I ain't played pool in so long. I miss those days at the pool hall sippin' on Long Island ice teas with Billy Idol on the jukebox.

My father bought a slate 4’x9’ (full size) table from a pool hall for like $100 in the early 80’s. It sat in his basement disassembled until he restored it in the mid 90’s. I moved out in the mid 00’s, so for about a decade I had free pool any time I wanted it. As a result I don’t have much desire to play pool anymore, but when I do I can usually pretty much dominate. It’s odd how well I can still play considering I only play maybe five games a year now. That said, pool is a great game and it’s very odd that there’s basically no way to play it now unless you own a table. I spent a fair amount of my college bar days standing around a pool table and it makes for a great way to socialize.

I play at least 2 times (6-7 hours per session) per week, tournaments, some league and some gambling. I love it, it's a fun and healthy outlet. I have friends with nice tables and go to several different pool halls.

I was never able to play pool well. But then again I always felt the need to mindlessly consume alcoholic beverages back to back to back while I played and it may have somewhat effected my game...

I haven't played that in a long time. It's fun from what I remember. I remember needing more skill and precision to play it.
