<h3>
The Cue Ball Master</h3>
<div>
Some years back, I was doing an exhibition at Buffalo Billiards in
downtown Nashville, Tennessee, when a man walked up to me and said, “I’m
blown away at how you master the cue ball to make perfect position for
your next shot.<br />
<br />
<br />
I’d love to be able to do that, but my life is such a
mess right now, I really don’t have the time to get that good.” I
decided to respond to the, “but” of why his life was such a mess.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<br />
I picked up the cue ball and said, ”I really don’t master the cue ball,
it masters me.” Then I firmly rolled the cue ball into a cushion and at
the same time asked, “to run out and win a pool game, I need a pool
table, the balls, a stick and the cue ball, right?”<br />
<br />
<br />
He curiously
answered, “right”, and this is what I taught him.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<br />
In pool, as you spend time reading and being taught what makes a great
pool player and practicing drills, your game will get better and your
cue ball will begin landing in the right position for your next shot.<br />
<br />
Then, through continual learning and disciplined practice, flawless
execution will evolve and next thing you know, people will say that you
are truly the master of the cue ball. However, in reality, the cue ball
is your master; it offers you options from which to choose for executing
your next shot.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>

CLICK on the pool table to see The Drill Instructor’s book about how any man can understand God.</div>
<h1>
</h1>
<h1>
Prove it yourself.</h1>
<div>
Do you think you master the cue ball or do you think the cue ball
masters you? Try this drill. Place the 1 ball at center table, the 2
ball on the top rail at the center diamond and the 3 ball across on the
bottom rail.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<br />
Start with ball-in-hand and pocket the three balls in
rotation order in each of their respective pockets on the right side of
the table, then reverse the drill to the pockets on the left side of the
table.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<br />
The cue ball demands specific control in order to make it land in
perfect position to pocket each ball. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
The question is, can you perform
what the cue ball requires of you? That’s my point! If you cant, you
will always struggle to run balls; you’ll never be a threat to run out
from everywhere because you have never learned to master and be mastered
by the cue ball.</div>
<br />
<div>
</div>
<div>
<br />
Now compare shooting pool to life. The table is earth, each ball
represents a responsibility or aspect of life and the purpose or calling
on your life is like the rules that govern a pool game. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<br />
You’re the
player, your FITS (Feelings, Images, Thoughts and Spiritual convictions)
are your cue stick and the cue ball becomes like your relationship to
GOD.</div>
<br />
<div>
</div>
<div>
<br />
More often when your relationship with God is poor or non existent,
your life can seem like one big mess and you’re always trying to dig
yourself out from one problem after another.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br />
Like building your pool game, invest time reading, being taught and
living out God’s Word and watch how your life will become increasingly
better.</div>
<br />
<div>
</div>
<div>
<br />
Like mastering the cue ball to play good pool, master getting to
know Jesus and soon your life pool game will be running out from
everywhere too. <i><b> </b></i></div>

<h3>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Early_life">Early life</span></h3>
Reyes was born in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pampanga" title="Pampanga">Pampanga</a> in 1954.<br />
<br />
He moved to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manila" title="Manila">Manila</a>
with his family at the age of 5.<br />
<br />
In Manila, he worked as a billiards
attendant at his uncle's billiards hall, where he started learning the
various cue sports.<br />
<br />
Because he was not tall enough to reach the pool
table, he played while standing on Coca-cola cases that he moved around.
At night, while he was dreaming of playing pool, the pool table was his
bed.<sup class="Template-Fact" style="white-space: nowrap;">[<i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources. (May 2011)">citation needed</span></a></i>]</sup><br />
<br />
He is called <i>Bata</i>, which is Filipino for "Kid", because there
was another older pool player named Efren when he was young. To
distinguish between the two, he was referred to as Efren <i>Bata</i>.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Career">Career</span></h3>
Gambling from a young age, Reyes played <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_cushion_billiards" title="Three cushion billiards">three cushion billiards</a>
in the 1960s and 1970s.<br />
<br />
After establishing himself as a winner, he was
discovered by promoters.<br />
<br />
This gave him the opportunity to compete in big
time tournaments.<br />
<br />
During the 1980s, when Reyes was considered a top-class player in his
homeland but not yet internationally recognized, he went to the U.S. to
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hustling" title="Hustling">hustle</a>.<br />
<br />
Popular legend claims that Reyes earned <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_dollar" title="United States dollar">US$</a>80,000 in a week; this feat made him a folk hero back home.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-1"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-1">[1]</a></sup><br />
<br />
Reyes began winning a number of tournaments in the U.S., Europe and
parts of Asia. Thus, he started to gain attention and recognition
worldwide.<br />
<br />
At the start of his career, he used aliases to hide his
identity so he would be allowed to compete.<br />
<br />
By the mid-1990s, he had
become one of the elite players of the Philippines, alongside <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jose_Parica" title="Jose Parica">Jose Parica</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francisco_Bustamante" title="Francisco Bustamante">Francisco Bustamante</a>.<br />
<br />
Reyes' fame began when he won the US Open Nine Ball Championship in 1994 by defeating <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Varner" title="Nick Varner">Nick Varner</a> in the finals. He was the first non-American to win the event.<br />
<br />
Two years later, Efren Reyes and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Strickland" title="Earl Strickland">Earl Strickland</a> were chosen to face each other in an event called the Color of Money, named after the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Color_of_Money" title="The Color of Money">movie</a>.<br />
<br />
The event was a three-day race-to-120 challenge match of 9-ball. It was
held in Hong Kong, with a winner-take-all prize of US$100,000. Reyes
won the match 120-117.<br />
<br />
This was the largest single-winning purse in a
pool event.<sup class="Template-Fact" style="white-space: nowrap;">[<i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources. (May 2011)">citation needed</span></a></i>]</sup><br />
<br />
Although Strickland was the first to win the <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WPA_World_9-ball_Championship" title="WPA World 9-ball Championship">WPA World 9-ball Championship</a>,
Reyes, in 1999, became the first to win while it was broadcast on
television.<br />
<br />
This tournament was not recognized at the time by the WPA,
but Reyes was later retrospectively acknowledged as the winner of one of
two world championships held in 1999.<br />

<br />
<br />
Nick Varner won the "official"
world title. The two tournaments were merged for the following year,
with both men listed as the champion for 1999.<br />
<br />
At the time, the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matchroom_Sport" title="Matchroom Sport">Matchroom Sport</a>-organised event in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiff" title="Cardiff">Cardiff</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wales" title="Wales">Wales</a>, was called the World <i>Professional</i> Pool Championship (despite the entry of many non-professional players).<br />
<br />
In 2001, Reyes won the International Billiard Tournament. The event was held in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokyo" title="Tokyo">Tokyo</a>, with over 700 players and a total purse of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_yen" title="Japanese yen">¥</a>100M ($850K).<br />
<br />
Reyes dominated the event and beat <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niels_Feijen" title="Niels Feijen">Niels Feijen</a> in the finals 15-7 and earned the ¥20M<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-2"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-2">[2]</a></sup> ($170K) first prize. At the time, this was the biggest first prize in a pool tournament.<br />
<br />
In 2002 he won the $50K winner-take-all <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Challenge_of_Champions" title="International Challenge of Champions">International Challenge of Champions</a>, defeating Mika Immonen in a deciding rack after both players split sets.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-3"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-3">[3]</a></sup><br />
<br />
Near the end of 2004, Reyes beat <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marlon_Manalo" title="Marlon Manalo">Marlon Manalo</a> to become the first-ever <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_World_Eight-ball_Champions" title="List of World Eight-ball Champions">WPA World Eight Ball Champion</a>.<br />
<br />
With the win, he became the first player in WPA history to win world championships in two different disciplines.<br />
<br />
In December 2005, Reyes won the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Pool_Tour" title="International Pool Tour">IPT</a> King of the Hill 8-Ball Shootout.<br />
<br />
Reyes won a record-breaking $200K for first place by beating fellow Hall of Fame member <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Sigel" title="Mike Sigel">Mike "the Mouth" Sigel</a> two sets to none (8-0 and 8-5).<br />
<br />
In 2006, Reyes and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francisco_Bustamante" title="Francisco Bustamante">Francisco Bustamante</a> represented their country as Team Philippines in the inaugural World Cup of Pool.<br />
<br />
They defeated Team USA, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Strickland" title="Earl Strickland">Earl Strickland</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodney_Morris" title="Rodney Morris">Rodney Morris</a>, to capture the title.<br />
<br />
That same year, Reyes won the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPT_World_Open_Eight-ball_Championship" title="IPT World Open Eight-ball Championship">IPT World Open Eight-ball Championship</a>
over Rodney Morris 8-6.<br />
<br />
He earned $500K which was the largest prize
money tournament in the history of pocket billiards. Unfortunately, due
to IPT's financial problems, he has not been able to claim much of this
money as of 2007.<sup class="Template-Fact" style="white-space: nowrap;">[<i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources. (May 2011)">citation needed</span></a></i>]</sup><br />
<br />
In 2009, the Filipino tandem of Efren Reyes and Francisco Bustamante
beat the German pair of Ralf Souquet and Thorsten Hohmann by a grueling
11-9 score to take their second championship title.<br />
<br />
This, together with
the semifinal finish of the other Filipino team of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronato_Alcano" title="Ronato Alcano">Ronato Alcano</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennis_Orcollo" title="Dennis Orcollo">Dennis Orcollo</a>, was the best performance by a host nation in the tournament's history.<br />
<br />
In 2010, Reyes clinched his fifth title in the 12th annual Derby City
Classic as the overall champion, making him the most successful player
in the tournament's history.<br />
<br />
He has topped the AZ Billiards Money List five times: in 2001,<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-4"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-4">[4]</a></sup> 2002,<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-5"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-5">[5]</a></sup> 2004,<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-6"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-6">[6]</a></sup> 2005<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-7"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-7">[7]</a></sup> and 2006.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-8"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-8">[8]</a></sup><br />
<br />
In 2006, he set a record by earning $646K in a single year.<br />
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span class="mw-headline" id="Nicknames_and_aliases">Nicknames and aliases </span></h3>
Reyes is often called by his nickname "<i>Bata</i>" (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filipino_language" title="Filipino language">Filipino</a> for "Kid"), given to him by friends at his regular <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pool_hall" title="Pool hall">pool hall</a> to distinguish him from an older Efren.<br />
<br />
Reyes, along with the other "Filipino invasion" players
revolutionized the way pool is played by their introduction to the sport
of pinpoint precision kicking (going into a rail with the cue ball and
then hitting an object ball).<br />
<br />
Reyes' ability to "kick safe" and to kick
balls into intended pockets is legendary.<br />
<br />
This ability, coupled with his
superb skill at other aspects of the game, led U.S. professionals to
give him the appellation "The Magician."<br />
<br />
Before Reyes and his
compatriots came over to the U.S., no one there had seen anything like
their kicking skill set.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-14"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-14">[14]</a></sup><br />
<br />
"[The] first time I came over to the states, I used an alias of Cesar
Morales. Pool players in the US already knew Efren Reyes as a great
shooter from the Philippines, but they [hadn't]...seen...[me]...in
person." — Efren Reyes<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-AZB1_15-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-AZB1-15">[15]</a></sup><br />

<div class="a-size-large a-spacing-none" id="title" style="text-align: left;">
These are instructional columns I wrote for national & regional
billiard publications over a 15-year period.<br />
<br />
This book contains a lot of
what I've learned through 20 years of teaching pool to several thousand
players. Much of this hard-won insight came through hands-on work
solving the real problems of real players.<br />
<br />
Many of these topics
can be found nowhere else. You know from experience how valuable a good
pool tip can be. This book has HUNDREDS of good tips & useful
insights. <br />
<br />
A comment from Billiard University co-founder Dr. Randy Russell on<br />
<br />
"Beat People With a Stick!"<br />
<br />
"Your
writing has really had a positive effect on my game. I have a full
bookshelf of pool books (probably at least 40) and I've read them all.
And I also read all of the journal instructional articles.<br />
<br />
But if I had
to pick just one author for a serious pool player to read, it would be
you. In particular, "Beat People With a Stick!" is the most useful,
clear, articulate guide to elevating a serious pool player's game that
exists because your writing covers what matters every time a player
leans over to shoot, and it gives practical, sound advice and the
rationale behind it. I have re-read it several times."</div>

When Lou was 14 years old, he saw BCA Hall of Famer Edwin Rudolph in
an exhibition match. From that point on, Lou devoted his life to
billiards.<br />
<br />
Throughout his career, Lou won many tournaments. He was runner-up to
Irving Crane in the 1972 World Championship in Los Angeles.<br />
<br />
In 1973, he
defeated Crane in the finals of the same event to win his first World
Championship.<br />
<br />
Lou earned his famous nickname that same year when, in an
exhibition with Allen Hopkins, he ran 150 straight balls in just 21
minutes, the moniker “Machine Gun” for his fast-paced style.<br />
<br />
He also won
the Pennsylvania State Championship twice.<br />
<br />
Butera knocked off top
players regularly in the 1970s with his trademark fast-paced style,
which seemed to make the game of pool more exciting for the spectators.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-3"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lou_Butera#cite_note-3">[3]</a></sup><br />
<br />
In 1974, Butera won the All Japan title against the world's best, and
also triumphed over Richie Florence to win the Bud Lundahl's Midwest
Open, a straight pool tournament he won by a score of 150-68 in the
title match.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-4"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lou_Butera#cite_note-4">[4]</a></sup><br />
<br />
In 1991, Butera served as coach of the World Billiard Federation World
Team, whose members included such luminaries as Nick Varner, Mike Siegel
and Ray Martin.<br />
<br />
In a profile that appeared in the May/June, 1995 issue
of <a class="external text" href="http://www.thesnapmagazine.com/" rel="nofollow"><i>Snap Magazine</i></a>, he was referred to as "...the man who may be the fastest pool player the game has ever known."<br />
<br />
Lou Butera was one of the 43 invited pool players who competed in the International Pool Tour's King of the Hill Shootout in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orlando,_Florida" title="Orlando, Florida">Orlando, Florida</a>, December 2005.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-5"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lou_Butera#cite_note-5">[5]</a></sup><br />
<br />
Digitized videos of Butera demonstrating spectacular trick shots were included with the PC pool simulator <i><a class="mw-redirect" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_Pool" title="Virtual Pool">Virtual Pool</a></i>. He died from <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkinson%27s_disease" title="Parkinson's disease">Parkinson's disease</a> on June 25, 2015.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-6"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lou_Butera#cite_note-6">[6]</a></sup><br />
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Filmography">Filmography</span></h2>
As an accomplished pool player, Butera has produced various
instructional videos for students of pool about the fundamentals of the
game.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-7"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lou_Butera#cite_note-7">[7]</a></sup><br />
<br />
Lou Butera appeared in several films as an actor and technical advisor.<br />
<br />
He had a <a class="mw-redirect" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cameo_role" title="Cameo role">cameo appearance</a>, as himself, in the pool <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hustling" title="Hustling">hustling</a> comedy film <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Baltimore_Bullet" title="The Baltimore Bullet">The Baltimore Bullet</a></i> and as a pool player in <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Police_Academy_6:_City_Under_Siege" title="Police Academy 6: City Under Siege">Police Academy 6: City Under Siege</a></i>.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-8"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lou_Butera#cite_note-8">[8]</a></sup><br />
<br />
Butera had a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cameo_appearance" title="Cameo appearance">cameo appearance</a> as pool player in, and was the pool technical advisor for, the 1984 film <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racing_with_the_Moon" title="Racing with the Moon">Racing with the Moon</a></i>, starring <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean_Penn" title="Sean Penn">Sean Penn</a>.<br />
<br />
With a large family — he and his wife Caroline, who died in 2012, had
seven children — Butera cut down on his tournament schedule choosing
instead to run his pool room and work as a spokesman for Brunswick, a
maker of high-end, crafted pool tables.<br />
<br />
Butera also worked in radio and television as a technical consultant
helping actors appear natural when the played pool on screen.<br />
<br />
His clients included Tom Cruise, whose then wife Nicole Kidman paid
$3,750 for the pool lessons; Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Martin Sheen and
Michael Douglas whom he choreographed playing pool in a scene from the
movie American President.<br />
<br />
On the TV show “War of the Stars” in the 1980s Butera played pool
against Don Adams, who played Maxwell Smart in “Get Smart,” and against
Paul Sorvino. He also worked on “The Fall Guy,” “Married With Children”
and “Living Single.”<br />
<br />
He was also featured on the 1995 Virtual Pool CD Rom video game.<br />
<br />
In
1986 he was inducted into the Billiard Congress of America Hall of Fame.<br />
<br />
In a way it can be said Machine Gun Lou Butera came full circle.<br />
<br />
Last
month he was included as one of the 40 people on the Inspirational
Mural in Pittston, just down Main Street from where he once annoyed the
older pool players with his Ma’s soda box.<br />

<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Pool_hustling_techniques">Pool hustling techniques</span></h2>
<b>Hustling</b> is the deceptive act of disguising one's skill in a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sport" title="Sport">sport</a> or <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game" title="Game">game</a> with the intent of luring someone of probably lesser skill into <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gambling" title="Gambling">gambling</a> (or gambling for higher than current stakes) with the hustler, as a form of both a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confidence_trick" title="Confidence trick">confidence trick</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Match_fixing" title="Match fixing">match fixing</a>.<br />
<br />
It is most commonly associated with, and originated in, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pool_%28cue_sports%29" title="Pool (cue sports)">pool</a> (and to an extent other <a class="mw-redirect" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cue_sport" title="Cue sport">billiards</a>-family games), but also can be performed with regard to other sports and gambling activities.<br />
<br />
Hustlers may also engage in "<dfn id=""><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms#shark" title="Glossary of cue sports terms"><span class="" style="color: inherit;" title="See entry at: Glossary of cue sports terms § Shark">sharking</span></a></dfn>"—distracting,
disheartening, enraging, or even threatening their opponents—to throw
them off. Hustlers are thus often called "pool sharks" <i>(compare "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Card_sharp" title="Card sharp">card shark</a>")</i>.<br />
<br />
Professional and semi-pro hustlers sometimes work with a "<dfn id=""><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms#stake" title="Glossary of cue sports terms"><span class="" style="color: inherit;" title="See entry at: Glossary of cue sports terms § Stake">stakehorse</span></a></dfn>"—a
person who provides the money for the hustler to bet with (and who may
assist in the hustling)—in exchange for a substantial portion of all
winnings.<br />
<br />
Another form of hustling (often engaged in by the same
hustlers who use the skill-disguising technique) is challenging <dfn id=""><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms#mark" title="Glossary of cue sports terms"><span class="" style="color: inherit;" title="See entry at: Glossary of cue sports terms § Mark">"marks"</span></a></dfn> (swindle targets) to bet on <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot" title="Trick shot">trick shots</a> that seem nearly impossible but at which the hustler is exceptionally skilled.<br />
<br />
Pool hustlers use <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deception" title="Deception">deception</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misdirection_%28magic%29" title="Misdirection (magic)">misdirection</a>
in order to win cash from inexperienced players (or skilled players
inexperienced with the world of hustling). A skilled hustler<br />
<ul>
<li>will usually play with a low-quality "house" <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cue_stick" title="Cue stick">cue stick</a> provided by the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billiard_hall" title="Billiard hall">pool hall</a>, or an unadorned but high-quality personal cue that looks like one, known as a "<dfn id=""><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms#sneaky_pete" title="Glossary of cue sports terms"><span class="" style="color: inherit;" title="See entry at: Glossary of cue sports terms § Sneaky pete">sneaky pete</span></a></dfn>"
(or, with the nascence of local competitive league play in recent
years, may play with a flashy-looking but evidently low-end personal
cue, to give the impression that the hustler is a beginning league
player);</li>
<li>will typically play a game or two for "fun" or for low bets (a beer
or equivalent amount of cash, for example) in order to check out the
opponent and give the impression that money can easily be won, often
losing on purpose (known as "<dfn id=""><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms#sandbag" title="Glossary of cue sports terms"><span class="" style="color: inherit;" title="See entry at: Glossary of cue sports terms § Sandbag">sandbagging</span></a></dfn>" or "<dfn id=""><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms#dump" title="Glossary of cue sports terms"><span class="" style="color: inherit;" title="See entry at: Glossary of cue sports terms § Dump">dumping</span></a></dfn>") – with the intent of winning a much larger wager later against a predictably overconfident opponent;</li>
<li>will pocket some difficult and impressive shots or make surprisingly
secure safety shots (ones crucial for winning), while missing many
simple ones, thus making early victories appear to be sheer <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luck" title="Luck">luck</a>
(a variant being the theatrical almost-making of shots that
inexperienced players may think of as crucial mistakes, but which really
give away very little advantage);</li>
<li>may pretend to be intoxicated, unintelligent, or otherwise impaired
(that is, until it is time to run the table or make a game-winning
shot).</li>
<li>when betting on trick shots, may intentionally miss the first or
several times and lose a small amount, then raise the bet to an amount
well beyond the loss and succeed at the well-practiced feat.</li>
</ul>
Many of these ploys can easily be mistaken for the honest faults of a
less-than-exceptional player. The engendered doubt and uncertainty is
what allows hustling to succeed, with the "faults" being dropped when a
significant amount of money is at stake.<br />

<span class="mw-headline" id="In_popular_culture">In popular culture</span></h2>
Pool hustling is the subject of films such as <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hustler_%28film%29" title="The Hustler (film)">The Hustler</a></i> (1961) and <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Color_of_Money" title="The Color of Money">The Color of Money</a></i> (1986) (both adapted from earlier novels, <i>see "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hustling#Books">Books</a>", below</i>), among others <i>(see "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hustling#Notable_films_about_hustlers_and_hustling">Films</a>", below)</i>.<br />

A <b>trick shot</b> (also <b>trickshot</b> or <b>trick-shot</b>) is a shot played on a <a class="mw-redirect" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billiards_table" title="Billiards table">billiards table</a> (most often a <a class="mw-redirect" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pocket_billiards" title="Pocket billiards">pool</a> table, though <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snooker" title="Snooker">snooker</a> tables are also used), which seems unlikely or impossible or requires significant skill.<br />
<br />
Trick shots frequently involve the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billiard_ball" title="Billiard ball">balls</a> organized in ways that are unlikely or impossible to appear in normal play, such as balls being in a straight line, or use <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theatrical_property" title="Theatrical property">props</a> such as extra cues or a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rack_%28billiards%29" title="Rack (billiards)">triangle</a> that would not be allowed on the table during a game. As an organized <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cue_sports" title="Cue sports">cue sports</a> discipline, trick shot competition is known as <b>artistic pool</b>.<br />

<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Competition_formats">Competition formats</span></h2>
Billiards trick shots are the subject of increasing international competition, both <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amateur" title="Amateur">amateur</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional" title="Professional">professional</a>.<br />
<br />
There are world championships, such as the <a class="new" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=WPA_Artistic_Pool_World_Championships&action=edit&redlink=1" title="WPA Artistic Pool World Championships (page does not exist)">WPA Artistic Pool World Championships</a> and the <a class="new" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=World_Snooker_Trickshot_Championship&action=edit&redlink=1" title="World Snooker Trickshot Championship (page does not exist)">World Snooker Trickshot Championship</a> (which has not been held since 2006), and made-for-TV events, such as <i><a class="new" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Trick_Shot_Magic&action=edit&redlink=1" title="Trick Shot Magic (page does not exist)">Trick Shot Magic</a></i> and the <i><a class="new" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=World_Cup_of_Trick_Shots&action=edit&redlink=1" title="World Cup of Trick Shots (page does not exist)">World Cup of Trick Shots</a></i>, often televised in both the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States" title="United States">US</a> and the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom" title="United Kingdom">UK</a> and providing enough prize money that some professional players specialize in the discipline.<br />
<br />
The formats vary depending on the competition. Some, such as the <a class="new" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=World_Snooker_Trickshot_Championship&action=edit&redlink=1" title="World Snooker Trickshot Championship (page does not exist)">World Snooker Trickshot Championship</a> are purely <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhibition_game" title="Exhibition game">exhibitions</a>, with a panel of judges scoring subjectively to determine the winner.<br />
Events such as Trick Shot Magic and the World Cup feature
head-to-head competition where the players select shots that have
strictly outlined requirements specified in a <a class="new" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Playbook_%28sports%29&action=edit&redlink=1" title="Playbook (sports) (page does not exist)">playbook</a>.<br />
<br />
Each year, players are allowed to submit their own shot inventions,
however, they are disclosed prior to the event to give all players an
equal chance to practice them.<br />
<br />
Players or teams are given two attempts
to complete a selected shot within the given parameters, and earn one
point for each successful shot, either a first shot or follow-up shot.<br />
<br />
Each player or team gets to select a given number of shots, generally
eight or ten, and a winner is declared when one side is mathematically
eliminated.<br />
<br />
Trick Shot Magic, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESPN" title="ESPN">ESPN</a>'s
annual artistic pool pro tournament, has been widely considered the
televised version of the World Artistic Pool Championship, and it has
held the highest ratings in televised cue sports competitions in the
United States between 2000 and 2009.<br />
<br />
Artistic pool similarly <i>(see <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#Artistic_pool">below</a>)</i> has a <dfn id=""><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms#shot_program" title="Glossary of cue sports terms"><span class="" style="color: inherit;" title="See entry at: Glossary of cue sports terms § Shot program">program of shots</span></a></dfn> (three attempts each, in a sliding-scale point system), with precisely outlined parameters requirements.<br />

pre-defined shots. Players challenge each other with shots outlining the
parameters of the shots just before shooting.<br />
<br />
Each player gets three
attempts per shot, scoring one point per shot made. Each player gets to
select a given number of shots, generally six to ten, and the winner is
declared when one player is mathematically eliminated.<br />

<b>Artistic pool</b> trick shot competitions, inspired by the related discipline of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artistic_billiards" title="Artistic billiards">artistic billiards</a>,
began in the 1970s with international pros and coordinated by world
champion Paul Gerni, with the World Trick Shot Artists Association, and
in 2000, in Las Vegas, formed a new group, again with an international
cast.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ArtisticPool.org1_2-0"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-ArtisticPool.org1-2">[2]</a></sup><br />
<br />
They feature a program of 160 tricks to attempt, many of which were used in the previous formats by the WTSAA,<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ArtisticPoolPlayers1_3-0"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-ArtisticPoolPlayers1-3">[3]</a></sup> and include the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billiard_Congress_of_America" title="Billiard Congress of America">BCA</a> North American Championship, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Pocket_Billiard_Federation" title="European Pocket Billiard Federation">EPBF</a> European Championship, and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Pool-Billiard_Association" title="World Pool-Billiard Association">WPA</a> World Championship, among others.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ArtisticPool.org1_2-1"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-ArtisticPool.org1-2">[2]</a></sup><br />
<br />
The tricks are now divided into eight "disciplines", including
trick/fancy, prop/novelty/special arts, and disciplines for extremes in
each of the core <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cue_sports_techniques" title="Cue sports techniques">cueing techniques</a>.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ArtisticPoolPlayers1_3-1"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-ArtisticPoolPlayers1-3">[3]</a></sup><sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ArtisticPool.org3_4-0"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-ArtisticPool.org3-4">[4]</a></sup><br />
<br />
The current world <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sports_governing_body" title="Sports governing body">governing body</a> for this sport is the WPA Artistic Pool Division, while the current largest league and player organization is the US-based <a class="new" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Artistic_Pool_%26_Trick_Shot_Association&action=edit&redlink=1" title="Artistic Pool & Trick Shot Association (page does not exist)">Artistic Pool & Trick Shot Association</a> (APTSA), which organizes the World Artistic Pool Championship (WAPC) annually, held concurrently with the more general <a class="mw-redirect" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VNEA_International_Pool_Championship" title="VNEA International Pool Championship">VNEA International Pool Championship</a>.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ArtisticPool.org1_2-2"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-ArtisticPool.org1-2">[2]</a></sup><sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ArtisticPool.org2_5-0"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-ArtisticPool.org2-5">[5]</a></sup><br />

The greatest contemporary champions of artistic pool include 22-time World Champion <a class="new" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Paul_Gerni&action=edit&redlink=1" title="Paul Gerni (page does not exist)">Paul Gerni</a>, and more recently, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Massey" title="Mike Massey">Mike Massey</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Segal" title="Andy Segal">Andy Segal</a>, and <a class="new" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tom_Rossman&action=edit&redlink=1" title="Tom Rossman (page does not exist)">Tom Rossman</a>.<br />
<br />
In WTSAA and APTSA competitions, competitors would have three chances
to successfully perform each trick, earning full points if they are
successful on their first attempts and incrementally reduced points for
subsequent attempts.<br />
<br />
Each shot has an associated difficulty rating (also
the point value) with a higher rating being more difficult. A
preliminary round of 40 shots is performed, and the top players (the
number varies depending on the number of competitors, but usually the
top 12) proceed into a head-to-head playoff format to determine the
winner.<br />
<br />
Proper and official artistic pool competitions feature equipment
limitations, (one cue, one stroke per trick shot, one approved
universal prop per shot per diagram if necessary, all shots on the bed
of the table, etc.), and shot requirements (e.g., preclusion of any
off-the-table tricks, such as are popular in events like Trick Shot
Magic and World Cup of Trick Shots).<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-APTSA_Rules_6-0"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-APTSA_Rules-6">[6]</a></sup><br />

<span class="mw-headline" id="Objects_used">Objects used</span></h2>
As with other pool and billiards games, trick shots usually utilize a <dfn id=""><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms#cue_ball" title="Glossary of cue sports terms"><span class="" style="color: inherit;" title="See entry at: Glossary of cue sports terms § Cue ball">cue ball</span></a></dfn>, one or more <dfn id=""><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms#object_ball" title="Glossary of cue sports terms"><span class="" style="color: inherit;" title="See entry at: Glossary of cue sports terms § Object ball">object balls</span></a></dfn>, and a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cue_stick" title="Cue stick">cue stick</a>.<br />

with artistic billiards pros, trick shot artists often have specialized
cue sticks for performing particular types of shots, particularly <dfn id=""><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms#jump_shot" title="Glossary of cue sports terms"><span class="" style="color: inherit;" title="See entry at: Glossary of cue sports terms § Jump shot">jump shots</span></a></dfn> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cue_sports_techniques#Mass.C3.A9_shot" title="Cue sports techniques">massés</a>.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-7"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-7">[7]</a></sup><br />

The APTSA trick shot disciplines are:<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li><b>Trick and/or fancy</b>: Primarily deals with setup shots,
multiple ball configurations, and/or a shot where cue ball travels in a
"kick" pattern to make final ball(s). May also include "extreme" cut
shots and special skill shots not in other disciplines.</li>
<li><b>Prop/novelty and special arts</b>: Unusual or new shots of any
nature, shots with "props", such as cues, bridge(s), rack(s),coin(s),
chalk, etc., and shots of a unique or "special" art form, such as wing
shots, time shots, "legal" or "illegal" follow-thru shots, push shots,
roller coaster technique/waterfall specialties, plus demonstrations of
one-handed jack up, behind back, under leg, and more. Referred to as
general amusement category.</li>
<li><b>Draw</b>: Basic to advanced with cue ball greater than 1/2" from
first object ball. The cue ball contacts an object ball with draw
(backspin) and pockets another.</li>
<li><b>Follow</b>: A cue ball is hit with follow (topspin) and goes forth and hits in an object ball.</li>
<li><b>Bank/Kick</b>: Bank, meaning to hit object ball(s) into
cushion(s), and kicks meaning to hit cue ball into "x" number of
cushions first and then to object ball(s).</li>
<li><b>Stroke</b>: Cue ball less than 1/2" from first object ball(s),
for draw or follow, plus accuracy position shots, speed control shots,
or unique "stroke" shots.</li>
<li><b>Jump</b>: Any shot utilizing jump shot technique, other than "prop" shots with bridge(s), and some special "stroke" shots.</li>
<li><b>Massé</b>: Half and full massé – cue elevations over 10 degrees.</li>
</ol>

<ul>
<li>"Machine gun" (1): A line of object balls are placed in a row about a ball width away from a <dfn id=""><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms#cushion" title="Glossary of cue sports terms"><span class="" style="color: inherit;" title="See entry at: Glossary of cue sports terms § Cushion">cushion</span></a></dfn>,
and the cue ball is shot into the space between the balls and the
cushion so as to reverberate between them while traveling and hit each
one of the object balls in series, issuing a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_gun" title="Machine gun">machine gun</a>-like sound.</li>
<li>"Machine gun" (2): A line of object balls are placed in a row along
but not against a cushion, and are then shot directly with the cue, one
after another, around the table, each contacting three cushions, and
into the same pocket. The trick requires carefully timing the shots, so
that newly-shot balls travel between balls already in motion.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-YouTube-MG_8-0"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-YouTube-MG-8">[8]</a></sup></li>
<li>"Machine gun" (3): A line of object balls are placed on the table.
The cue ball is shot into a pocket with deadweight and the object balls
are all potted into the same pocket directly one after the other with
the cue, while the cue ball is still traveling. Done right, the cue ball
is the first ball hit and the last ball falling.</li>
<li>"The dollar bill shot": Introduced into competition by Paul Gerni, this shot uses a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banknote" title="Banknote">banknote</a>, typically a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_dollar" title="United States dollar">US$</a>100
bill, placed on the short rail near the corner pocket as a target
landing zone. The cue ball is banked off of eight or nine cushions and
should land with the ball's edge over the banknote. This shot is used as
a tiebreaker on <i><a class="new" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Trick_Shot_Magic&action=edit&redlink=1" title="Trick Shot Magic (page does not exist)">Trick Shot Magic</a></i> with the competitor landing closest to the bill winning the match.</li>
<li>"Up and in": Mistakenly thought to be originated by World Champion <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Massey" title="Mike Massey">Mike Massey</a>,
this shot has much earlier origins, and was done in 1980 in Sweden by
European champion Bengt Jonasson of Stockholm. He showed it to the
gentleman of the American team (Paul Gerni, Jim Rempe, and Mike Sigel)
in an exhibition prior to the 1980 Swedish Open in Gothenburg, using a
wooden shoe instead of a floppy cowboy boot, and prompting both Gerni
and Rempe to stop at the gift shop at the Amsterdam airport on the way
back to pick up some wooden shoes. In this shot, the cue ball is jumped
off the table into a wooden shoe (a cowboy boot for Massey, 25 years
later) on the floor, which made a nice "klack" sound in the case of the
wooden shoe. In the U.S., the wooden shoe shot is sometimes referred to
as "the boot shot".</li>
<li>"The bottle shot": Two balls are balanced on top of a glass soda
bottle. The cue ball pockets a ball in the side and gets propelled in
the air, knocking the bottom ball from the top of the bottle, letting
the top ball drop to rest on top of the bottle. This shot was conceived
by Japanese player <a class="new" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Yoshikazu_Kimura&action=edit&redlink=1" title="Yoshikazu Kimura (page does not exist)">Yoshikazu Kimura</a>, from Kyoto, and popularized by Polish champion Bogdan Wolkowski.</li>
<li>"The butterfly": For this popular exhibition shot from the days of
pool greats Willie Mosconi and Jimmy Caras, six object balls are grouped
in the middle of the table<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Butterfly_Tutorial_9-0"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-Butterfly_Tutorial-9">[9]</a></sup> in a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly" title="Butterfly">butterfly</a> shape; in a single shot, each ball drops into a different pocket in the <a class="mw-redirect" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billiards_table" title="Billiards table">billiards table</a>.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-YouTube-BF_10-0"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-YouTube-BF-10">[10]</a></sup><sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Butterfly_trick_shot_video_11-0"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-Butterfly_trick_shot_video-11">[11]</a></sup></li>
<li>"Just showing off":<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Just_Showing_Off_Video_12-0"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-Just_Showing_Off_Video-12">[12]</a></sup> Five object balls are clustered near the left side pocket and a hanging object ball in the lower right corner.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Just_Showing_Off_Tutorial_13-0"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-Just_Showing_Off_Tutorial-13">[13]</a></sup>
The cue ball is sent in to the cluster pocketing all five balls and
then travels 3 rails to pocket the hanging object ball. This shot was
originally designed in the '60s by Paul Gerni, combining two previously
popular trick shots, and made famous by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Mizerak" title="Steve Mizerak">Steve Mizerak</a>
in a Miller Lite beer commercial in 1978. This shot and the subsequent
commercial boosted Mizerak's name recognition and vaulted him into the
Hall of Fame. Gerni still showcases this shot in his present-day
exhibitions, and it has now become a standard for most all pool
exhibitions.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Pocket_Billiards_14-0"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-Pocket_Billiards-14">[14]</a></sup></li>
<li>"The snake shot": Fifteen object balls are placed across the table.
The 15 ball is the first and it is placed 6 inches away from the corner
pocket. Each successive ball is placed 3 inches behind the previous one
in a winding chain. Each combination of balls beginning with the 1 and
the 2 should be aligned so they aim toward the next ball in the chain.
The cue ball must be set up in position to make a straight line with the
first two-ball combination. When the 1 ball is hit it should cause a
chain reaction as each two-ball set hits each other.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-15"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-15">[15]</a></sup><sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-15"> </sup></li>
<li>"The Swing Shot": A rack hangs from above and swings back and forth.
The player proceeds to jump balls through the moving rack and into the
corner pockets.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-16"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-16">[</a></sup></li>

Author's Bio; Donald Beres Jr./ Sinbad the Sailor Man

<br />
Who is Sinbad the Sailor Man? Well wouldn't we all like to know, who we really are?<br />
<br />
He is nobody special yet, at least not in the writing industry. He was
born Donald Beres Jr. in Hammond Indiana, to Carol Ann (Muskin) Beres
and Donald Beres of Pennsylvania.<br />
<br />
Donald's Mother divorced his natural father and married Wayne L.
Douglas. The couple thought it easier to conceal the fact of his
mother's divorce from Donald's natural father. <br />
<br />
He was raised in Hobart, Indiana as Donnie Douglas until about the age
of sixteen.When he found out that his mother had him by her first
husband.<br />
<br />
Donnie found this out shortly after attending Hobart Junior High. He
took this news in stride but did not realize the damage that this and
the lies that followed about his natural father and half sister would
eventually unfold later in life.<br />
<br />
He attended until his Sophomore year. He Letter in Football and Wrestling during his Freshmen year.<br />
<br />
In 1980 he left before graduation to go to Portage Adult Night School so
he could join the US Navy with two of his childhood friends; on the
Navy's Buddy System.<br />
<br />
But because of budget cuts that semester. Donnie was delayed six months and missed going through Boot Camp with his two Buddies.<br />
<br />
As a result he would no longer qualify for the twenty yrs and out full
retirement. Instead he would need to do thirty years to receive that
option. Donnie's two buddies both took full advantage of that option.<br />
<br />
On Aug 23rd 1985 Donald was Honorable Discharged from the US Navy.<br />
<br />
Donald met Donna L. Se Doris who was seven years his junior in 1998 and
in Aug 25th 1990 they were married. They had three children together
until their Divorce in March of 2001.<br />
<br />
Donald is still a divorced middle aged man, who has three great kids,
one curly headed girl and two boys. Donald is the Grandfather of two one
of each a girl and a boy with more on the way. <br />
<br />
He is a US Navy Veteran, a would be Poet, a soon to be freelance writer, he hopes.<br />
<br />
He is a dyslectic, he is a dreamer of dreams and an inventor of things,
he is a decent pool player, a certified Advanced Open Water SCUBA diver,
although he hasn't dove since 1990<br />
<br />
He still holds, Certifications in Night diving, Deep diving, Search and
Recovery diving, and he is an Underwater Vehicle Specialist, an
ex-welder, and a guy who likes to ride Motorcycles.<br />
<br />
Donald likes to play
Eight ball and Nine ball Billiards and has shown a growing interest in
One Pocket.<br />
<br />
He started writing Poetry way back in Night School 1980. Donald started
after a short falling out with his Mother over being lied to about his
true identity. <br />
<br />
He started writing again, about six months after his
divorce. From his wife of ten and a half years.Which he strongly took as
a betrayal by his first true love. <br />
<br />
He has been writing off and on ever since.<br />
<br />
He has had several Back
Surgeries and others most on his lower back. Although he was disabled
December 1998 and has been on Disability since.<br />
<br />
He has made several
attempts to return to full duty work, but failed and remains on
Disability to this day.<br />
<br />
He has a very bad short term memory problem, brought on by almost nine
years of prescription drug use, mostly pain killers. He has bouts of
depression from time to time and has contemplated and attempted suicide
twice.<br />
<br />
These attempts were early on in his disability. While he was on strong
Pain Killers. The ones that one should also be put on anti-depressants
with. Donald was not! He attributes his attempts on his life to this
lack of proper medication.<br />
<br />
Among these annoying problems he has other small annoying ticks and
clicks that keep him from holding down any normal nine to five job for
too long.<br />
<br />
One of his attempts to return to work was as a semi truck driver.<br />
<br />
He
drove for about five months but, his eyes started to fail due to high
blood pressure and now he has severe night blindness, so he can't drive
semi truck at night any more.<br />
<br />
He drove a taxi for about five months
after getting New Glasses but has since given up on trying to drive
commercially.<br />
<br />
While Driving over the road his only daughter was Life flighted to
Chicago's Children's Hospital from Indiana by helicopter. Donald dropped
a load of rubber and drove from Saint Louis Missouri,<br />
<br />
He stated to his
dispatcher the thing is floored and It wasn't stopping until I got there
or It burnt up!<br />
<br />
His daughter was later diagnosed with Type One Childhood Diabetes. <br />
<br />
Donald is back to writing poetry short stories, and trying different
Inter Net jobs, which he has not yet mastered any of those either.<br />
<br />
There you have it! Donald States that he is an average guy. With no
place to go but up!<br />
<br />
Because if he gets any lower, they'll have to put
him down and in the ground.<br />
<br />
"By The Grace of GOD There Go I"<br />
<br />
One of Donald's Favorite Bible Quotes<br />
<br />
Another of his favorites is<br />
<br />
"Unto Death Do We Part"<br />
<br />

Me I am a Little Better Now!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<h3 class="post-title entry-title" itemprop="name">
<br />
</h3>
<div class="post-header">
</div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<div style="font-family: BitstreamVeraSansRoman, Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 16px;">
As I believe I have gotten the Site at Sinbadthesailorman Dot Com under control.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: BitstreamVeraSansRoman, Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 16px;">
Here
is what the deal was my Hub and site “Sinbad The Sailor Man Dot Com”
was acting up and when I put a ticket in I found out It has been UN
supported for the last Year! But Now what is left of it and still up and
working is at <a data-mce-href="http://www.sinbadthesailorman.info" href="http://www.sinbadthesailorman.info/" style="color: black;" target="_blank" title="Old Dot Com Website">Sinbadthesailorman Dot Info.</a><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: BitstreamVeraSansRoman, Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 16px;">
I
am currently Rebuilding the PW&OSfStSM Site at a WordPress Themed
Site. It will still be Hosted at Fatcow.com and It will have the
Original Dot Com address <a data-mce-href="http://www.sinbadthesailorman.com" href="http://www.sinbadthesailorman.com/" style="color: black;" target="_blank" title="The New Wordpress Under Construction!">Sinbadthesailorman.com.</a><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: BitstreamVeraSansRoman, Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 16px;">
The Dot Info should be Up but, It may not be <span data-mce-style="text-decoration: underline;" style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>Fully Functioning</b></span> not
even as well as It did Yesterday! And It will decline in functionality
as time goes by. There is nothing I can do about It as of today Its a
third party website builder for Fatcow and It is being phased out! But
like a way Back Site you'll be able to see what It is and was.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: BitstreamVeraSansRoman, Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 16px;">
This
Post will be a site wide Posting and you will see It at all my sites
and on my FaceBook pages, Twitter.com, and wherever else I can think
about getting It up and then remember to do so.</div>
<h3 style="font-family: PTSansItalic, Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 20px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 20px;">
The New Wordpress Theme is Visible </h3>
<br />
<div style="font-family: BitstreamVeraSansRoman, Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 16px;">
But
appears nothing like a Wordpress theme and It Won't for a good week and
a half most likely.<br />
<br />
But the Addresses of both sites are showing up as
Up and they are something and Bits and Pieces of both.<br />
<br />
They are not
completely restored and the Old Website won't be to my understanding as I
mentioned above here.<br />
<br />
So this is why I am putting this Info Out too you
all.<br />
<br />
So you don't think I built a bunch of totally useless crap and
slapped It up trying to make a buck.<br />
<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: BitstreamVeraSansRoman, Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 16px;">
Well
I got to Run because I am under the Gun Here and I need to try and save
the Christmas rush earnings ability If I can If Not Oh well It Looks
like Easter and St Valentines Day will be my next chance to earn with
Amazon.com and my other Affiliates.<br />

<span class="mw-headline" id="Career">Career</span></h2>
Nick D. Varner graduated from Tell City High School in Tell City,
Indiana in 1966.<br />
<br />
Varner learned to play pool in his father's (Nick
Varner) pool hall in Grandview, Indiana.<br />
<br />
After graduating from high
school, Varner gained notoriety on the professional pool scene after he
won two ACU-I Intercollegiate Championships while attending Purdue
University.<br />
<br />
A cliché given to Varner was "Speak softly and carry a big
stick" because of the way he conducted himself as well as his
competitive endeavors.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-2"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Varner#cite_note-2">[2]</a></sup><br />
<br />
In 1989, Varner became only the second man to earn over $100,000 in prize winnings accumulating 16 major <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine-ball" title="Nine-ball">nine-ball</a> events and was "Player of the Year" in 1980 and 1989.<br />
<br />
Varner is also an author, a video personality, a pool room proprietor, a manufacturer's representative, and an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhibition_game" title="Exhibition game">exhibition</a> player.<br />

<br />
Nick's Bio: Currently considered by many the world's
Best All-Around and Best 9-Ball Player, Nick Varner picked up his first
pool cue at age five when his father, Nicholas, bought a small pool room
in Grandview, Indiana.<br />
<br />
The young farm boy soon became a familiar sight
in the pool room pulling a coke case around the table so that he could
reach the shots on the table.<br />
<br />
By the time he graduated from high school,
Varner had become a top local player.
<br />
<br />
Despite his home town reputation,
Varner avoided pool rooms during his first semester at Purdue-figuring a
farm boy would be outclassed.<br />
<br />
However, one day early in his second
semester, Varner dropped into the billiard room and asked if anyone
wanted to play.<br />
<br />
Richard Baumgarth, soon to National Collegiate Champion,
stepped forward.<br />
<br />
Even though he had not played in months, Varner trailed
Baumgarth by only four games after two hours of play.
<br />
<br />
During the next three years, Varner practiced daily, and his game improved. In 1969 and
in 1970, he won back-to-back National Collegiate Championships.<br />
<br />
In 1970,
Nick received another boost to his confidence as a player when top pro
Joe Balsis visited Purdue for an exhibition. During a game between
Balsis and Varner, Nick ran 58 balls, beating Joe 150-148.<br />
<br />
Later, Balsis
remarked to the press, "Nick has a lot of potential."
<br />
<br />
After college, Nick took his "potential" on the road playing an aggressive schedule of tournaments
and exhibitions.<br />
<br />
In August 1980, his lifetime dream of winning the
World Championship came true in New York City.<br />
<br />
Three months later,
he also won the 1980 BCA National 8-Ball Championship, prompting <i>
<a href="http://www.billiardsdigest.com/" target="_blank">Billiards
Digest</a></i> to name him Player Of The Year.<br />
<br />
1981 was a heart-breaker
for Varner, when he narrowly missed repeating by finishing second in
both tournaments.<br />
<br />
However, in 1982, Varner captured the World
9-Ball Championship in Atlantic City.<br />
<br />
ABC Televised the tournament
on Wide World Of Sports with Howard Cosell as commentator.<br />
<br />
In 1986, Nick
again won the World Championship in Philadelphia, which ESPN televised.
<br />
<br />
1989 was a dream year for Nick. He won everything in sight, including 11 Pro Tour Events out of 22.
This record is one that may never be equaled.<br />
<br />
Two of his
Championships in 1989 included the World Championship and the US Open
9-Ball Championship.<br />
<br />
Throughout his career, Nick Varner has
established himself as one of the all-time greats of the game. His
skill, strategy and and cue ball control are legendary.<br />
<br />
Writer Ben
Lucien Burman, probably summed it up best after watching Nick perform at
the Players Club in New York, when he said "To watch Nick Varner at a
pool table is like watching a portrait being painted by
Rembrandt."<br />
<br />
Since 1980, Nick Varner has racked up over 80
tournament championships, including 8 World Championships.<br />
<br />
In
1992, he was ranked #1 All-Around Player and #1 9-Ball Player by his
peers in the Men's Professional Billiards Association.<br />
<br />
In July
1992, he was inducted into the <a href="http://www.bca-pool.com/industry/hof/ind92-96.shtml" target="_blank">Billiards Congress of America Hall of Fame</a>.
<br />
<br />
In 1994, Nick finished the year as the number one player on the Pro Billiards Tour and captured Player Of The
Year Honors for the fourth time.<br />
<br />
In route to Player Of The Year
honors, he won the world 8-Ball Championship and the Challenge of
Champions.
<br />
<br />
In 1999, Nick Won to World Titles. Early in the year, he won the World Bank Pool Championship in Louisville
Kentucky.<br />
<br />
Nick closed out the year by winning the WPA World 9-Ball
Championship in Alicante, Spain.<br />
<br />
Also in 1999, Nick started to compete
on Steve Mizerak's Senior Tour.<br />
<br />
He won Player Of The Year Honors his
first year on the tour.
<br />
<br />
During 2000, Nick added his 8th World Title by winning the World Title in One Pocket in Portland, Maine.<br />
<br />
Nick
is the only player of all time to win World Championships in 5 different
games.
<br />
<br />
The other Major Team Event in 2002 was the Border Battle in toronto, Canada at Dave and Buster's. The event
featured Team USA and Team Canada.<br />
<br />
Television and Promoter Jimmy Wych
put the event together and it was filmed by TSN (Canada's Total Sports
Network).<br />
<br />
Nick was Captain of Team USA and was lucky enough to win a
hill battle with Canada's Team Captain Cliff Thorburn to help pocket the
win for Team USA.
<br />
<br />
A living legend in pocket billiards,
Nick Varner has become one of the sport's most popular and sought after
celebrities.<br />
<br />
Through his many television appearances, exhibitions,
magazine articles, books, instructional videos and TV commentary, Nick
Varner shares his remarkable expertise and enthusiasm with millions of
pocket billiard players throughout the world.<br />

<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Early_days">Early days</span></h2>
Strickland started playing pool at the age of 9. After intensive practice, he entered his first professional tournament aged 15.<br />
<br />
<br />
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Career">Career</span></h2>
Strickland rose to national prominence in 1983 with a victory in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Tahoe" title="Lake Tahoe">Lake Tahoe</a>.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-2"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Strickland#cite_note-2">[2]</a></sup><br />
<br />
This was followed in 1984 by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caesars_Palace" title="Caesars Palace">Caesars Palace</a> Pro Billiard Classic in Las Vegas.<br />
<br />
According to sources, Strickland played "like a polished gem."<br />
<br />
He was
beginning to be a dominant force on the tournament trail and recognized
as a future world champion.<br />
<br />
He had the "skill, endurance, patience,
temperament, and tenacity of which champions are made."<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-3"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Strickland#cite_note-3">[3]</a></sup><br />
<br />
Because of his dominance, Strickland was named <i>The National Billiard News</i> Player of the Year in 1984.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-4"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Strickland#cite_note-4">[4]</a></sup><br />
<br />
He won the 1988 World Open championship, after a momentous final confrontation between himself and Mike 'Captain Hook' Sigel".<br />
<br />
A 45-second shot clock was used to monitor each shot because the
tournament was being recorded for broadcast for a seven-week series.<br />
<br />
At
the conclusion, Sigel commented he could feel the pressure of being
clocked.<br />
<br />
Strickland, on the other hand, said they "could have made it
only 30 seconds between shots, and it wouldn't have mattered."<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-5"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Strickland#cite_note-5">[5]</a></sup><br />
<br />
At the 2004 Derby City Classic, a week-long multiple tournament event held every January in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louisville,_Kentucky" title="Louisville, Kentucky">Louisville, Kentucky</a>, Strickland was one of six competitors in a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine-ball" title="Nine-ball">nine-ball</a> ring game.<br />
<br />
Veteran <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grady_Mathews" title="Grady Mathews">Grady Mathews</a>,
when introducing Strickland, says that when Strickland is in the house,
"A hush ensues, and there is an expectation" due to his brilliant
shot-making capabilities and unpredictable behavior.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-youtube.com_6-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Strickland#cite_note-youtube.com-6">[6]</a></sup><br />
<br />
In May 2012, Strickland approached the Clann Eireann Pool Team with a
view to signing a 2-year contract, although negotiations have now
stalled pending a team discussion.<br />
<br />
<br />
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Awards_and_accolades">Awards and accolades</span></h2>

<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Controversy">Controversy</span></h2>
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Controversy"></span>Strickland has engaged in exchanges with fans, players, referees, and tournament officials.</h2>
<br />
His 2003 <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Pool_Championship" title="World Pool Championship">World Pool Championship</a> match with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snooker" title="Snooker">snooker</a> star <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Davis" title="Steve Davis">Steve Davis</a> was particularly notorious.<br />
<br />
Before the match, Strickland had given a particularly charged interview with a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sky_Sports" title="Sky Sports">Sky Sports</a>
reporter, in which he complained that fans had been disrespectful to
him (booing when his name had been broadcast over the PA), and that the
event "revolves around Davis" (the event was organized by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matchroom_Sport" title="Matchroom Sport">Matchroom Sport</a>, which was headed by Davis's manager <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Hearn" title="Barry Hearn">Barry Hearn</a>, while Sky's coverage had featured Davis heavily to win an audience in the UK).<br />
<br />
He also appeared upset that <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sky_Sports" title="Sky Sports">Sky Sports</a> had shown numerous replays during the build up to the match of Davis beating him in the previous year's <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosconi_Cup" title="Mosconi Cup">Mosconi Cup</a>, the match which settled the event in favour of Team Europe.<br />
<br />
During the match, Strickland entered the arena visibly downbeat, and
after beginning the match in a quiet mood, Strickland soon began to
engage in heated verbal arguments with fans and then referee <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michaela_Tabb" title="Michaela Tabb">Michaela Tabb</a>.<br />
<br />
TV microphones caught him using foul language to one member of the
crowd, then telling Tabb to "shut up" when she reprimanded him.<br />
<br />
In
response, Davis made use of his entitlement to take a break in the
match.<br />
<br />
(Davis admitted later that the timing of this was intentional,
leaving Strickland to the mercy of the crowd.)<br />
<br />
During the gap,
Strickland put his fingers in his ears to block out the crowd's support
for Davis, to the derision of the crowd, who mocked the gesture, and
cheered loudly for Davis whenever Strickland took his fingers out.<br />
<br />
Late
in the match, he responded to Davis' missing of an easy shot by sharply
leaping out of his chair, fists aloft, shouting to the crowd "Yeah! He
dogged it!"<br />
<br />
When Davis took a second break, Strickland loudly complained
that players were only entitled to a single break, telling the crowd
"He's Steve Davis, he can do what he likes," another reference to his
belief that Davis's status at Matchroom Sport afforded him special
treatment.<br />
<br />
Strickland's tirade against Davis, the crowd, and the rules of the
event, continued through the main part of a post-match interview, before
visibly calming and apologizing for his behavior.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-10"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Strickland#cite_note-10">[10]</a></sup><br />
<br />
After admitting regret over his reactions during the encounter with
Davis, Strickland entered the arena for his next match carrying a bunch
of flowers which he gave to Tabb by way of an apology, and proceeded to
play in a much calmer manner for the remainder of the event.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-11"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Strickland#cite_note-11">[11]</a></sup><br />
<br />
Davis would go on to liken his match with Strickland to his 1980s snooker matches against <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Higgins" title="Alex Higgins">Alex Higgins</a>, another player noted for his combination of impressive play and enigmatic behavior.<br />
<br />
<br />
<h3>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Mosconi_Cup">Mosconi Cup</span></h3>
At the 2006 <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosconi_Cup" title="Mosconi Cup">Mosconi Cup</a>, which took place at <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotterdam" title="Rotterdam">Rotterdam</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netherlands" title="Netherlands">Netherlands</a> between December 7 and 10, the audience was loud, cheering and blowing horns when rooting for Team Europe.<br />
<br />
During a match with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_van_den_Berg" title="Nick van den Berg">Nick van den Berg</a>,
someone shouted from the audience for Strickland to "shut up" since he
had continued talking while opponents were taking their shots.<br />
<br />
The noise
was so intense that referee <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michaela_Tabb" title="Michaela Tabb">Michaela Tabb</a> warned spectators they could be thrown out of the arena if they persisted.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-12"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Strickland#cite_note-12">[12]</a></sup><br />
<br />
Strickland broke his cue out of frustration during his match against <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Engert" title="Thomas Engert">Thomas Engert</a>, smashing it against the floor after a failed attempt at a shot.<br />
<br />
He replaced the broken shaft and went on to win the match 7-4.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-13"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Strickland#cite_note-13">[13]</a></sup><br />
<br />
One year later, the 2007 Mosconi Cup in <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Las_Vegas,_Nevada" title="Las Vegas, Nevada">Las Vegas</a>
saw Strickland complain strongly about the misbehavior of European
players and fans, reaching its peak in a particularly bad-tempered clash
between himself and reigning world champion <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daryl_Peach" title="Daryl Peach">Daryl Peach</a>
where the referee (again Michaela Tabb) had to separate the two amid
fears their animosity might turn violent.<br />
<br />
Whereas most matches in the
event were followed by live TV interviews with both players, Strickland
refused to participate, while the normally mild-mannered Peach stated
"Strickland is the scum of the Earth, everyone knows that."<br />
<br />
Given the
opportunity to retract the statement moments later by the interviewer,
he declined.<br />
<br />
The next year, 2008, saw the Mosconi Cup played in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portomaso" title="Portomaso">Portomaso</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malta" title="Malta">Malta</a>.
Strickland's open night match again saw him repeatedly argue with
European fans in the crowd, and also repeatedly comment aloud that the
table was playing too easily.<br />
<br />
In a post-match interview, he stated that
it was bad for the sport if the public sees top players in a high
profile event using a table that was clearly playing more easily than a
standard club table.<br />
<br />
When the crowd gave a mixed reaction to his
comments, he turned to the spectators and attempted to rally them by
calling "Do you want to see us have an easy time out here? Or do you
want to see these guys shit on themselves?"<br />
<br />
Presenter <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Goldstein" title="Andy Goldstein">Andy Goldstein</a>
immediately apologized to viewers, an action that prompted Strickland
to further argue that such language is acceptable, citing <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiger_Woods" title="Tiger Woods">Tiger Woods</a> as a fellow sportsman who has used such language on TV without being challenged.<br />
<br />
Asked about the possibility of banning Strickland from future events for his behavior, Matchroom Sports founder <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Hearn" title="Barry Hearn">Barry Hearn</a>
stated he would always want Strickland to participate in the firm's
events, since his presence "guarantees drama and unpredictability."<br />
<br />
Strickland, though, would be dropped by the USA team for the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2009_Mosconi_Cup" title="2009 Mosconi Cup">2009 Mosconi Cup</a> and was not selected again for the next three years before returning to the team in 2013.<br />

<br />
Reyes was born in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pampanga" title="Pampanga">Pampanga</a> in 1954.<br />
<br />
He moved to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manila" title="Manila">Manila</a>
with his family at the age of 5.<br />
<br />
In Manila, he worked as a billiards
attendant at his uncle's billiards hall, where he started learning the
various cue sports.<br />
<br />
Because he was not tall enough to reach the pool
table, he played while standing on Coca-cola cases that he moved around.<br />
<br />
At night, while he was dreaming of playing pool, the pool table was his
bed.<sup class="Template-Fact" style="white-space: nowrap;">[<i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources. (May 2011)">citation needed</span></a></i>]</sup><br />
<br />
He is called <i>Bata</i>, which is Filipino for "Kid", because there
was another older pool player named Efren when he was young.<br />
<br />
To
distinguish between the two, he was referred to as Efren <i>Bata</i>.<br />
<br />
<div class="thumb tright">
Gambling from a young age, Reyes played <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_cushion_billiards" title="Three cushion billiards">three cushion billiards</a>
in the 1960s and 1970s.<br />
<br />
After establishing himself as a winner, he was
discovered by promoters.<br />
<br />
This gave him the opportunity to compete in big
time tournaments.<br />
<br />
During the 1980s, when Reyes was considered a top-class player in his
homeland but not yet internationally recognized, he went to the U.S. to
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hustling" title="Hustling">hustle</a>.<br />
<br />
Popular legend claims that Reyes earned <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_dollar" title="United States dollar">US$</a>80,000 in a week; this feat made him a folk hero back home.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-1"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-1">[1]</a></sup><br />
<br />
Reyes began winning a number of tournaments in the U.S., Europe and
parts of Asia.<br />
<br />
Thus, he started to gain attention and recognition
worldwide. At the start of his career, he used aliases to hide his
identity so he would be allowed to compete.<br />
<br />
By the mid-1990s, he had
become one of the elite players of the Philippines, alongside <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jose_Parica" title="Jose Parica">Jose Parica</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francisco_Bustamante" title="Francisco Bustamante">Francisco Bustamante</a>.</div>

Although Strickland was the first to win the <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WPA_World_9-ball_Championship" title="WPA World 9-ball Championship">WPA World 9-ball Championship</a>,
Reyes, in 1999, became the first to win while it was broadcast on
television.<br />
<br />
This tournament was not recognized at the time by the WPA,
but Reyes was later retrospectively acknowledged as the winner of one of
two world championships held in 1999.<br />
<br />
Nick Varner won the "official"
world title.<br />
<br />
The two tournaments were merged for the following year,
with both men listed as the champion for 1999.<br />
<br />
At the time, the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matchroom_Sport" title="Matchroom Sport">Matchroom Sport</a>-organised event in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiff" title="Cardiff">Cardiff</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wales" title="Wales">Wales</a>, was called the World <i>Professional</i> Pool Championship (despite the entry of many non-professional players).</div>

<div id="eow-description">

<div id="eow-description">
<b>Earl "The Pearl" Strickland</b> (born on June 8, 1961, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greensboro,_North_Carolina" title="Greensboro, North Carolina">Roseboro</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Carolina" title="North Carolina">North Carolina</a>) is an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States" title="United States">American</a> professional pool player and was inducted into the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billiard_Congress_of_America" title="Billiard Congress of America">Billiard Congress of America</a>'s <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BCA_Hall_of_Fame" title="BCA Hall of Fame">Hall of Fame</a> in 2006.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-1"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Strickland#cite_note-1">[1]</a></sup><br />
<br />
He is considered one of the best <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine-ball" title="Nine-ball">nine-ball</a>
players of all time.<br />
<br />
Earl has won numerous championship titles within a
25-year time span, and also one of the most controversial, for his
often-outspoken views and sometimes volatile behavior at tournaments.</div>

<h3>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Early_life">Early life</span></h3>
Reyes was born in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pampanga" title="Pampanga">Pampanga</a> in 1954.<br />
<br />
He moved to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manila" title="Manila">Manila</a>
with his family at the age of 5.<br />
<br />
In Manila, he worked as a billiards
attendant at his uncle's billiards hall, where he started learning the
various cue sports.<br />
<br />
Because he was not tall enough to reach the pool
table, he played while standing on Coca-cola cases that he moved around.
At night, while he was dreaming of playing pool, the pool table was his
bed.<sup class="Template-Fact" style="white-space: nowrap;">[<i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources. (May 2011)">citation needed</span></a></i>]</sup><br />
<br />
He is called <i>Bata</i>, which is Filipino for "Kid", because there
was another older pool player named Efren when he was young. To
distinguish between the two, he was referred to as Efren <i>Bata</i>.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Career">Career</span></h3>
Gambling from a young age, Reyes played <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_cushion_billiards" title="Three cushion billiards">three cushion billiards</a>
in the 1960s and 1970s.<br />
<br />
After establishing himself as a winner, he was
discovered by promoters.<br />
<br />
This gave him the opportunity to compete in big
time tournaments.<br />
<br />
During the 1980s, when Reyes was considered a top-class player in his
homeland but not yet internationally recognized, he went to the U.S. to
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hustling" title="Hustling">hustle</a>.<br />
<br />
Popular legend claims that Reyes earned <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_dollar" title="United States dollar">US$</a>80,000 in a week; this feat made him a folk hero back home.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-1"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-1">[1]</a></sup><br />
<br />
Reyes began winning a number of tournaments in the U.S., Europe and
parts of Asia. Thus, he started to gain attention and recognition
worldwide.<br />
<br />
At the start of his career, he used aliases to hide his
identity so he would be allowed to compete.<br />
<br />
By the mid-1990s, he had
become one of the elite players of the Philippines, alongside <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jose_Parica" title="Jose Parica">Jose Parica</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francisco_Bustamante" title="Francisco Bustamante">Francisco Bustamante</a>.<br />
<br />
Reyes' fame began when he won the US Open Nine Ball Championship in 1994 by defeating <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Varner" title="Nick Varner">Nick Varner</a> in the finals. He was the first non-American to win the event.<br />
<br />
Two years later, Efren Reyes and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Strickland" title="Earl Strickland">Earl Strickland</a> were chosen to face each other in an event called the Color of Money, named after the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Color_of_Money" title="The Color of Money">movie</a>.<br />
<br />
The event was a three-day race-to-120 challenge match of 9-ball. It was
held in Hong Kong, with a winner-take-all prize of US$100,000. Reyes
won the match 120-117.<br />
<br />
This was the largest single-winning purse in a
pool event.<sup class="Template-Fact" style="white-space: nowrap;">[<i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources. (May 2011)">citation needed</span></a></i>]</sup><br />
<br />
Although Strickland was the first to win the <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WPA_World_9-ball_Championship" title="WPA World 9-ball Championship">WPA World 9-ball Championship</a>,
Reyes, in 1999, became the first to win while it was broadcast on
television.<br />
<br />
This tournament was not recognized at the time by the WPA,
but Reyes was later retrospectively acknowledged as the winner of one of
two world championships held in 1999.<br />

<br />
<br />
Nick Varner won the "official"
world title. The two tournaments were merged for the following year,
with both men listed as the champion for 1999.<br />
<br />
At the time, the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matchroom_Sport" title="Matchroom Sport">Matchroom Sport</a>-organised event in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiff" title="Cardiff">Cardiff</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wales" title="Wales">Wales</a>, was called the World <i>Professional</i> Pool Championship (despite the entry of many non-professional players).<br />
<br />
In 2001, Reyes won the International Billiard Tournament. The event was held in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokyo" title="Tokyo">Tokyo</a>, with over 700 players and a total purse of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_yen" title="Japanese yen">¥</a>100M ($850K).<br />
<br />
Reyes dominated the event and beat <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niels_Feijen" title="Niels Feijen">Niels Feijen</a> in the finals 15-7 and earned the ¥20M<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-2"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-2">[2]</a></sup> ($170K) first prize. At the time, this was the biggest first prize in a pool tournament.<br />
<br />
In 2002 he won the $50K winner-take-all <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Challenge_of_Champions" title="International Challenge of Champions">International Challenge of Champions</a>, defeating Mika Immonen in a deciding rack after both players split sets.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-3"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-3">[3]</a></sup><br />
<br />
Near the end of 2004, Reyes beat <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marlon_Manalo" title="Marlon Manalo">Marlon Manalo</a> to become the first-ever <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_World_Eight-ball_Champions" title="List of World Eight-ball Champions">WPA World Eight Ball Champion</a>.<br />
<br />
With the win, he became the first player in WPA history to win world championships in two different disciplines.<br />
<br />
In December 2005, Reyes won the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Pool_Tour" title="International Pool Tour">IPT</a> King of the Hill 8-Ball Shootout.<br />
<br />
Reyes won a record-breaking $200K for first place by beating fellow Hall of Fame member <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Sigel" title="Mike Sigel">Mike "the Mouth" Sigel</a> two sets to none (8-0 and 8-5).<br />
<br />
In 2006, Reyes and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francisco_Bustamante" title="Francisco Bustamante">Francisco Bustamante</a> represented their country as Team Philippines in the inaugural World Cup of Pool.<br />
<br />
They defeated Team USA, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Strickland" title="Earl Strickland">Earl Strickland</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodney_Morris" title="Rodney Morris">Rodney Morris</a>, to capture the title.<br />
<br />
That same year, Reyes won the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPT_World_Open_Eight-ball_Championship" title="IPT World Open Eight-ball Championship">IPT World Open Eight-ball Championship</a>
over Rodney Morris 8-6.<br />
<br />
He earned $500K which was the largest prize
money tournament in the history of pocket billiards. Unfortunately, due
to IPT's financial problems, he has not been able to claim much of this
money as of 2007.<sup class="Template-Fact" style="white-space: nowrap;">[<i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources. (May 2011)">citation needed</span></a></i>]</sup><br />
<br />
In 2009, the Filipino tandem of Efren Reyes and Francisco Bustamante
beat the German pair of Ralf Souquet and Thorsten Hohmann by a grueling
11-9 score to take their second championship title.<br />
<br />
This, together with
the semifinal finish of the other Filipino team of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronato_Alcano" title="Ronato Alcano">Ronato Alcano</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennis_Orcollo" title="Dennis Orcollo">Dennis Orcollo</a>, was the best performance by a host nation in the tournament's history.<br />
<br />
In 2010, Reyes clinched his fifth title in the 12th annual Derby City
Classic as the overall champion, making him the most successful player
in the tournament's history.<br />
<br />
He has topped the AZ Billiards Money List five times: in 2001,<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-4"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-4">[4]</a></sup> 2002,<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-5"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-5">[5]</a></sup> 2004,<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-6"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-6">[6]</a></sup> 2005<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-7"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-7">[7]</a></sup> and 2006.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-8"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-8">[8]</a></sup><br />
<br />
In 2006, he set a record by earning $646K in a single year.<br />
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span class="mw-headline" id="Nicknames_and_aliases">Nicknames and aliases </span></h3>
Reyes is often called by his nickname "<i>Bata</i>" (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filipino_language" title="Filipino language">Filipino</a> for "Kid"), given to him by friends at his regular <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pool_hall" title="Pool hall">pool hall</a> to distinguish him from an older Efren.<br />
<br />
Reyes, along with the other "Filipino invasion" players
revolutionized the way pool is played by their introduction to the sport
of pinpoint precision kicking (going into a rail with the cue ball and
then hitting an object ball).<br />
<br />
Reyes' ability to "kick safe" and to kick
balls into intended pockets is legendary.<br />
<br />
This ability, coupled with his
superb skill at other aspects of the game, led U.S. professionals to
give him the appellation "The Magician."<br />
<br />
Before Reyes and his
compatriots came over to the U.S., no one there had seen anything like
their kicking skill set.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-14"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-14">[14]</a></sup><br />
<br />
"[The] first time I came over to the states, I used an alias of Cesar
Morales. Pool players in the US already knew Efren Reyes as a great
shooter from the Philippines, but they [hadn't]...seen...[me]...in
person." — Efren Reyes<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-AZB1_15-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes#cite_note-AZB1-15">[15]</a></sup><br />

<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Competition_formats">Competition formats</span></h2>
Billiards trick shots are the subject of increasing international
competition, both amateur and professional.<br />
<br />
There are world
championships, such as the <a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=WPA_Artistic_Pool_World_Championships&action=edit&redlink=1" title="WPA Artistic Pool World Championships (page does not exist)">WPA Artistic Pool World Championships</a> and the <a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=World_Snooker_Trickshot_Championship&action=edit&redlink=1" title="World Snooker Trickshot Championship (page does not exist)">World Snooker Trickshot Championship</a> (which has not been held since 2006), and made-for-TV events, such as <i><a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Trick_Shot_Magic&action=edit&redlink=1" title="Trick Shot Magic (page does not exist)">Trick Shot Magic</a></i> and the <i><a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=World_Cup_of_Trick_Shots&action=edit&redlink=1" title="World Cup of Trick Shots (page does not exist)">World Cup of Trick Shots</a></i>, often televised in both the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States" title="United States">US</a> and the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom" title="United Kingdom">UK</a> and providing enough prize money that some professional players specialize in the discipline.<br />
<br />
The formats vary depending on the competition. Some, such as the <a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=World_Snooker_Trickshot_Championship&action=edit&redlink=1" title="World Snooker Trickshot Championship (page does not exist)">World Snooker Trickshot Championship</a> are purely <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhibition_game" title="Exhibition game">exhibitions</a>, with a panel of judges scoring subjectively to determine the winner.<br />
<br />
Events such as Trick Shot Magic and the World Cup feature
head-to-head competition where the players select shots that have
strictly outlined requirements specified in a <a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Playbook_%28sports%29&action=edit&redlink=1" title="Playbook (sports) (page does not exist)">playbook</a>.<br />
<br />
Each year, players are allowed to submit their own shot inventions,
however, they are disclosed prior to the event to give all players an
equal chance to practice them.<br />
<br />
Players or teams are given two attempts
to complete a selected shot within the given parameters, and earn one
point for each successful shot.<br />
<br />
Each player or team gets to select a
given number of shots, generally eight or ten, and a winner is declared
when one side is mathematically eliminated.<br />
<br />
Trick Shot Magic, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESPN" title="ESPN">ESPN</a>'s
annual artistic pool pro tournament, has been widely considered the
televised version of the World Artistic Pool Championship, and it has
held the highest ratings in televised cue sports competitions in the
United States between 2000 and 2009.<br />
<br />
Artistic pool similarly <i>(see <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#Artistic_pool">below</a>)</i> has a <dfn class="explain" title="Shot program"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms#shot_program" title="Glossary of cue sports terms"><span style="color: inherit;" title="See entry at: Glossary of cue sports terms: Shot program">program of shots</span></a></dfn> (three attempts each, in a sliding-scale point system), with precisely outlined parameters requirements.<br />
<br />
The Ultimate Trick Shot Tour <sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Ultimate_Trick_Shot_Tour_1-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-Ultimate_Trick_Shot_Tour-1">[1]</a></sup>
features head-to-head competition between two players with no
pre-defined shots.<br />
<br />
Players challenge each other with shots outlining the
parameters of the shots just before shooting.<br />
<br />
Each player gets three
attempts per shot, scoring one point per shot made.<br />
<br />
Each player gets to
select a given number of shots, generally six to ten, and the winner is
declared when one player is mathematically eliminated.<br />
<br />

<span class="mw-headline" id="Artistic_pool">Artistic pool</span></h2>
<b>Artistic pool</b> trick shot competitions, inspired by the related discipline of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artistic_billiards" title="Artistic billiards">artistic billiards</a>,
began in the 1970's with international pros and coordinated by world
champion Paul Gerni, with the World Trick Shot Artists Association, and
in 2000, in Las Vegas, formed a new group, again with an international
cast.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ArtisticPool.org1_2-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-ArtisticPool.org1-2">[2]</a></sup><br />
<br />
They feature a program of 160 tricks to attempt, many of which were used in the previous formats by the WTSAA,<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ArtisticPoolPlayers1_3-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-ArtisticPoolPlayers1-3">[3]</a></sup> and include the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billiard_Congress_of_America" title="Billiard Congress of America">BCA</a> North American Championship, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Pocket_Billiard_Federation" title="European Pocket Billiard Federation">EPBF</a> European Championship, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Pool-Billiard_Association" title="World Pool-Billiard Association">WPA</a> World Championship, among others.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ArtisticPool.org1_2-1"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-ArtisticPool.org1-2">[2]</a></sup><br />
<br />
The tricks are now divided into eight "disciplines", including
trick/fancy, prop/novelty/special arts, and disciplines for extremes in
each of the core <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cue_sports_techniques" title="Cue sports techniques">cueing techniques</a>.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ArtisticPoolPlayers1_3-1"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-ArtisticPoolPlayers1-3">[3]</a></sup><sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ArtisticPool.org3_4-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-ArtisticPool.org3-4">[4]</a></sup><br />
<br />
The current world <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sports_governing_body" title="Sports governing body">governing body</a> for this sport is the WPA Artistic Pool Division, while the current largest league and player organization is the US-based <a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Artistic_Pool_%26_Trick_Shot_Association&action=edit&redlink=1" title="Artistic Pool & Trick Shot Association (page does not exist)">Artistic Pool & Trick Shot Association</a> (APTSA).<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ArtisticPool.org1_2-2"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-ArtisticPool.org1-2">[2]</a></sup><sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ArtisticPool.org2_5-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-ArtisticPool.org2-5">[5]</a></sup><br />
<br />
The greatest contemporary champions of artistic pool include 22-time World Champion <a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Paul_Gerni&action=edit&redlink=1" title="Paul Gerni (page does not exist)">Paul Gerni</a>, and more recently, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Massey" title="Mike Massey">Mike Massey</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Segal" title="Andy Segal">Andy Segal</a>, and <a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tom_Rossman&action=edit&redlink=1" title="Tom Rossman (page does not exist)">Tom Rossman</a>. /><br />
<br />
In WTSAA and APTSA competitions, competitors would have three chances
to successfully perform each trick, earning full points if they are
successful on their first attempts and incrementally reduced points for
subsequent attempts.<br />
<br />
Each shot has an associated difficulty rating (also
the point value) with a higher rating being more difficult.<br />
<br />
A
preliminary round of 40 shots is performed, and the top players (the
number varies depending on the number of competitors, but usually the
top 12) proceed into a head-to-head playoff format to determine the
winner.<br />
<br />
Proper and official artistic pool competitions feature equipment
limitations, (one cue, one stroke per trick shot, one approved
universal prop per shot per diagram if necessary, all shots on the bed
of the table, etc.), and shot requirements (e.g., preclusion of any
off-the-table tricks, such as are popular in events like Trick Shot
Magic and World Cup of Trick Shots).<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-APTSA_Rules_6-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-APTSA_Rules-6">[6]</a></sup><br />
<br />
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Objects_used">Objects used</span></h2>
As with other pool and billiards games, trick shots usually utilize a <dfn class="explain" title="Cue ball"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms#cue_ball" title="Glossary of cue sports terms"><span style="color: inherit;" title="See entry at: Glossary of cue sports terms: Cue ball">cue ball</span></a></dfn>, one or more <dfn class="explain" title="Object ball"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms#object_ball" title="Glossary of cue sports terms"><span style="color: inherit;" title="See entry at: Glossary of cue sports terms: Object ball">object balls</span></a></dfn>, and a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cue_stick" title="Cue stick">cue stick</a>.<br />

<br />
As
with artistic billiards pros, trick shot artists often have specialized
cue sticks for performing particular types of shots, particularly <dfn class="explain" title="Jump shot"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms#jump_shot" title="Glossary of cue sports terms"><span style="color: inherit;" title="See entry at: Glossary of cue sports terms: Jump shot">jump shots</span></a></dfn> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cue_sports_techniques#Mass.C3.A9_shot" title="Cue sports techniques">massés</a>.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-7"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-7">[7]</a></sup><br />

<span class="mw-headline" id="Notable_trick_shots">Notable trick shots</span></h2>
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Notable_trick_shots"> </span></h2>
<ul>
<li>"Machine gun" (1): A line of object balls are placed in a row about a ball width away from a <dfn class="explain" title="Cushion"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms#cushion" title="Glossary of cue sports terms"><span style="color: inherit;" title="See entry at: Glossary of cue sports terms: Cushion">cushion</span></a></dfn>,
and the cue ball is shot into the space between the balls and the
cushion so as to reverberate between them while traveling and hit each
one of the object balls in series, issuing a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_gun" title="Machine gun">machine gun</a>-like sound.</li>
<li>"Machine gun" (2): A line of object balls are placed in a row along
but not against a cushion, and are then shot directly with the cue, one
after another, around the table, each contacting three cushions, and
into the same pocket. The trick requires carefully timing the shots, so
that newly-shot balls travel between balls already in motion.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-YouTube-MG_8-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-YouTube-MG-8">[8]</a></sup></li>
<li>"Machine gun" (3): A line of object balls are placed on the table.
The cue ball is shot into a pocket with deadweight and the object balls
are all potted into the same pocket directly one after the other with
the cue, while the cue ball is still traveling. Done right, the cue ball
is the first ball hit and the last ball falling.</li>
<li>"The dollar bill shot": Introduced into competition by Paul Gerni, this shot uses a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banknote" title="Banknote">banknote</a>, typically a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_dollar" title="United States dollar">US$</a>100
bill, placed on the short rail near the corner pocket as a target
landing zone. The cue ball is banked off of eight or nine cushions and
should land with the ball's edge over the banknote. This shot is used as
a tiebreaker on <i><a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Trick_Shot_Magic&action=edit&redlink=1" title="Trick Shot Magic (page does not exist)">Trick Shot Magic</a></i> with the competitor landing closest to the bill winning the match.</li>
<li>"Up and in": Mistakenly thought to be originated by World Champion <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Massey" title="Mike Massey">Mike Massey</a>,
this shot has much earlier origins, and was done in 1980 in Sweden by
European champion Bengt Jonasson of Stockholm. He showed it to the
gentleman of the American team (Paul Gerni, Jim Rempe, and Mike Sigel)
in an exhibition prior to the 1980 Swedish Open in Gothenberg, using a
wooden shoe instead of a floppy cowboy boot, and prompting both Gerni
and Rempe to stop at the gift shop at the Amsterdam airport on the way
back to pick up some wooden shoes. In this shot, the cue ball is jumped
off the table into a wooden shoe (a cowboy boot for Massey, 25 years
later) on the floor, which made a nice "klack" sound in the case of the
wooden shoe. In the U.S., the wooden shoe shot is sometimes referred to
as "the boot shot".</li>
<li>"The bottle shot": Two balls are balanced on top of a glass soda
bottle. The cue ball pockets a ball in the side and gets propelled in
the air, knocking the bottom ball from the top of the bottle, letting
the top ball drop to rest on top of the bottle. This shot was conceived
by Japanese player <a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Yoshikazu_Kimura&action=edit&redlink=1" title="Yoshikazu Kimura (page does not exist)">Yoshikazu Kimuraj</a>, from Kyoto, and popularized by Polish champion Bogdan Wolkowski.</li>
<li>"The butterfly": For this popular exhibition shot from the days of
pool greats Willie Mosconi and Jimmy Caras, six object balls are grouped

The cue ball is sent in to the cluster pocketing all five balls and
then travels 3 rails to pocket the hanging object ball. This shot was
originally designed in the '60s by Paul Gerni, combining two previously
popular trick shots, and made famous by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Mizerak" title="Steve Mizerak">Steve Mizerak</a>
in a Miller Lite beer commercial in 1978. This shot and the subsequent
commercial boosted Mizerak's name recognition and vaulted him into the
Hall of Fame. Gerni still showcases this shot in his present-day
exhibitions, and it has now become a standard for most all pool
exhibitions.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Pocket_Billiards_14-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-Pocket_Billiards-14">[14]</a></sup></li>
<li>"The snake shot": Fifteen object balls are placed across the table.
The 15 ball is the first and it is placed 6 inches away from the corner
pocket. Each successive ball is placed 3 inches behind the previous one
in a winding chain. Each combination of balls beginning with the 1 and
the 2 should be aligned so they aim toward the next ball in the chain.
The cue ball must be set up in position to make a straight line with the
first two-ball combination. When the 1 ball is hit it should cause a
chain reaction as each two-ball set hits each other.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-15"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-15">[15]</a></sup></li>
<li>"The Swing Shot": A rack hangs from above and swings back and forth.
The player proceeds to jump balls through the moving rack and into the
corner pockets.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-16"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_shot#cite_note-16">[16]</a></sup><sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-16"> </sup></li>

Carom billiards, sometimes called carambole billiards or simply carambole (and in some cases used as a synonym for the game of straight rail from which many carom games derive), is the overarching title of a family of billiards games generally played on cloth-covered, 5 by 10 feet (approximately 1.5 × 3 m) pocket-less tables, which often feature heated slate beds.<br />
<br />
In its simplest form, the object of the game is to score points or "counts" by caroming one's own cue ball off both the opponent's cue ball and the object ball(s) on a single shot.<br />
<br />
The invention as well as the exact date of origin of carom billiards is somewhat obscure but is thought to be traceable to 18th-century France.[1]<br />
<br />
There is a large array of carom billiards disciplines. Some of the more prevalent today and historically are (chronologically by apparent date of development): straight rail, cushion caroms, balkline, three-cushion billiards and artistic billiards. <br />
<br />
There are many other carom billiards games, predominantly intermediary or offshoot games combining elements of those already listed, such as the champion's game, an intermediary game between straight rail and balkline, as well as games which are hybrids of carom billiards and pocket billiards, such as English billiards played on a snooker table and its descendant games, American four-ball billiards, and cowboy pool.[1]<br />
<br />
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
Etymology</h4>
The word "carom", which simply means any strike and rebound, was in use in reference to billiards by at least 1779, sometimes spelled "carrom".[1]:41<br />
<br />
Sources differ on the origin. It has been pegged variously as a shortening of the Spanish and Portuguese word carambola, or the French word carambole or caramboler, which were earlier used to describe the red object ball. <br />
<br />
Some etymologists have suggested that carambola, in turn, was derived from a yellow-to-orange, tropical Asian fruit also known in Portuguese as a carambola (which was a corruption of the original name of the fruit, karambal in the Marathi language of India),[1][2][3] also known as star fruit. <br />
<br />
But this may simply be folk etymology, as the fruit bears no resemblance to a billiard ball, and there is no direct evidence for such a derivation.[4] <br />
<br />
In modern French, the word 'carambolage' means a multiple collision accident, similar to one ball hitting the other two.<br />
<br />
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
Cloth</h4>
<br />
Cloth has been used to cover billiards tables since the 15th century.<br />
<br />
In fact, the predecessor company of the most famous maker of billiard cloth, Iwan Simonis, was formed in 1453.<br />
<br />
Most cloth made for carom billiards tables is a type of baize that is dyed green, and is made from 100% worsted wool, which provides a very fast surface allowing the balls to travel with little resistance across the table bed. <br />
<br />
The green color of cloth was originally chosen to emulate the look of grass, and has been so colored since the 16th century.<br />
<br />
However, as in green eyeshades, the color also serves a useful function: Humans have a higher light sensitivity to green than to any other color, so green cloth permits play for longer periods of time without eye strain.[1][5]<br />
<br />
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
Balls</h4>
Modern billiard balls are made from highly resilient plastics, are normally 61.5 mm (27⁄16 in) in diameter, weigh between 205 and 220 grams (7.23 – 7.75 ounces; 7.5 is average),[6] and are significantly larger and heavier than their pocket billiards counterparts. <br />
<br />
While UMB, the International Olympic Committee-recognized world carom billiards authority, technically permits balls as small as 61.0 mm (approximately 23⁄8),[6] no major manufacturer produces such balls any longer, and the de facto standard is 61.5 mm. <br />
<br />
The three standard balls in most carom billiards games consist of a completely white cue ball, a second cue ball with typically a red or black dot on it (to aid in differentiation between the two cue balls), and a third, red ball. In some sets of balls, however, the second cue ball is solid yellow.[1]<br />
<br />
Both types of ball sets are permitted in tournament play.[7]<br />
<br />
Billiard balls have been made from many different materials throughout the history of the game, including clay, wood, ivory, plastics (including celluloid, Bakelite, crystalate, and phenolic resin, polyester and acrylic) and even steel.<br />
<br />
The dominant material from 1627 until the early- to mid-20th century was ivory.<br />
<br />
The search for a substitute for ivory use was not for environmental concerns but based on economic motivation and fear of danger for elephant hunters.<br />
<br />
It was in part spurred on by a New York billiard table manufacturer who announced a prize of $10,000 for a substitute material. <br />
<br />
The first viable substitute was celluloid billiard balls, invented by John Wesley Hyatt in 1868, but the material was volatile and highly inflammable, sometimes exploding during manufacture.[1][8]<br />
<br />
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
Cues</h4>
Carom billiard cues have specialized refinements making them different from the typical pool cue with which many people are more familiar. <br />
<br />
Such cues tend to be shorter and lighter overall, with a shorter ferrule, a thicker butt and joint, a wooden joint pin (in high-end examples) and collarless wood-to-wood joint (for a one-piece cue "feel"), a fast, conical taper, and a smaller tip diameter as compared with pool cues. <br />
<br />
Typical dimensions are 54–56 inches (140–140 cm) in length, 16.5–18.5 ounces (0.47–0.52 kg) in weight (lighter for straight rail, heavier for three-cushion), with a 11–12 mm diameter tip.[9] <br />
<br />
The specialization makes the cue significantly stiffer, which aids in handling the larger and heavier billiard balls as compared with pool cues. It also acts to reduce deflection (sometimes called "squirt"), which may be defined as displacement of the cue ball's path away from the parallel line formed by the cue stick's direction of travel. <br />
<br />
It is a factor that occurs every time english (side) is employed, and its effects are magnified by speed. In some carom games, deflection plays a large role because many shots require extremes of English, coupled with great speed; this is a combination typically minimized as much as possible, by contrast, in pool.[10]:79, 240–1 <br />
<br />
The wood used in carom cues can vary widely, and most quality carom cues are handmade.[clarification needed]<br />
<br />
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
Heated slate</h4>
<br />
The slate bed of a billiard table is often heated to about 5 °C/9 °F above room temperature, which helps to keep moisture out of the cloth to aid the balls rolling and rebounding in a consistent manner, and generally makes a table play faster. <br />
<br />
A heated table is required under international carom rules and is an especially important requirement for the games of three-cushion billiards and artistic billiards.<br />
<br />
Heating table beds is an old practice.<br />
<br />
Queen Victoria of England (1819–1901) had a billiard table that was heated using zinc tubes, although the aim at that time was chiefly to keep the then-used ivory balls from warping.<br />
<br />
The first use of electric heating was for an 18.2 balkline tournament held in December 1927 between Welker Cochran and Jacob Schaefer, Jr.[1] <br />
<br />
The New York Times announced it with fanfare: "For the first time in the history of world's championship balkline billiards a heated table will be used ..."[1][11]<br />
<br />
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Three-cushion billiards</h3>
In three-cushion billiards, sometimes called three-cushion carom,[18] the object is to carom off both object balls with at least three rail cushions being contacted before the contact of the cue ball with the second object ball. <br />
<br />
Three-cushion is a very difficult game.<br />
<br />
Averaging one point per inning is professional-level play, and averaging 1.5 to 2 is world-class play.<br />
<br />
An average of one means that for every turn at the table, a player makes 1 point and misses once, thus making a point on 50% of his or her shots.<br />
<br />
The origin of the game is not entirely known. It is undisputed that one Wayman Crow McCreery of St. Louis, Missouri popularized the game in the 1870s.[1][19][20]<br />
<br />
The first three-cushion billiards tournament took place January 14–31, 1878 in St. Louis, with McCreery a participant and New Yorker Leon Magnus the winner. <br />
<br />
The high run for the tournament was just 6 points, and the high average a 0.75.[21]<br />
<br />
The game was infrequently played, with many top carom players of the era voicing their dislike of it, until after the 1907 introduction of the Lambert Trophy.[1][22] <br />
<br />
By 1924, three-cushion had become so popular that two giants in other billiard disciplines agreed to take up the game especially for a challenge match.<br />
<br />
On September 22, 1924, Willie Hoppe, the world's balkline champion (who later took up three-cushion with a passion), and Ralph Greenleaf, the world's straight pool title holder, played a well advertised, multi-day, match to 600 points.<br />
<br />
Hoppe was the eventual winner with a final score in of 600–527.<br />
<br />
Three-cushion billiards retains great popularity in parts of Europe, Asia, and Latin America,[1] and is the most popular carom billiards game played in the US today, where pool is far more widespread. <br />
<br />
The principal governing body of the sport is the Union Mondiale de Billard (UMB). It had been staging world three-cushion championships since the late 1920s.[23]<br />
<br />
The International Olympic Committee-recognized World Pool-Billiard Association (WPA) cooperates with the UMB to keep their rule sets synchronized.<br />

<br />
Semih Saygıner (born November 12, 1964,[1] in Adapazarı, Turkey)[2] nicknamed Mr. Magic and the Turkish Prince, is a Turkish professional carom billiards player.<br />
<br />
Saygıner is the fifth of 6 brothers and sisters.<br />
<br />
His parents died in a traffic accident when he was 14 years old. Saygıner then started playing billiards.<br />
<br />
He had a good performance in high school but left for depression over the loss of his mother and father. He then focused on billiards.<br />
<br />
A year later, he won his first Turkish title.[3]<br />
<br />
He won the 1999 CEB European Three-cushion Championship by defeating Dion Nelin of Denmark.<br />
<br />
He nearly won it again the next year but lost to Daniel Sánchez.<br />
<br />
He was the first from his country to win that tournament. A second player named Murat Naci Çoklu won it five years later.<br />
<br />
In 2003, Saygıner won the UMB World Three-cushion Championship by disposing of Filipos Kasidokostas of Greece.<br />
<br />
He's the only Turk ever to win it. That same year, he won the last World Three-cushion Championship organized by the BWA by besting Dick Jaspers.[4]<br />
<br />
Saygıner shares the world record for the highest run in three-cushion billiards, of 31, with Colombian American Hugo Patiño.<br />
<br />
His highest average in a match is 3.571 (50 points in 14 innings).<br />
<br />
Semih was married to the Women's Billiard Champion of Turkey Aygen Berk Saygıner.<br />
<br />
In 2009, Saygıner signed a contract with the prominent cue-stick producer Longoni.[5][6] Under the contract, a series of cue-sticks that bear Saygıner's name has been available from the company.[7]<br />
