Sweet sweet winnings. |
On Saturday I played my best game of pool ever. I was mucking around with friends, playing like crap, and I guess these Korean guys saw us. When we were done, they played a game, then waited around until someone else wanted to play. Someone else was me, and when I had racked the balls (to play with a friend), the one guy was like "We have the table, do you want to play me for beer?" I initially refused, but life being short, I relented.
I've seen these guys before, they have quite the beer hustle going. The one guy plays (poorly at first, but miraculously improves after a while), while his two buddies give him advice and hang out on either end of the table, strategically trying to distract their hapless opponent. That didn't happen this time. I pulled out ridiculous shots that had these guys looking at each other nervously. Usually I can't sink two balls in a row, but for some reason I was running the table. The last two shots I sank were cross-table crazy-angle chip-shots on balls trapped in the middle of the end band. They both went in, nothing but net. After the guy picked his mouth up off the floor, I dragged him over to the bar and made him buy me my beer. Haha, fuckface! A small victory in life, but I'll take it. And brag about it.
