For all you pool sharps

Does anyone like playing online 8-ball, 9-ball, or snooker?

I stumpled across this website and find I'm now addicted to it.

The proper term is sharp but people say shark also. At Billiard tournaments they call it sharp. I don't have the patience to go looking for a reference link so just take my word for it.

I think there may be a difference between the two.

Watch some snooker championships on tv sometime. The pro's call it sharp. (I will not bow down!) :P

Here's the most research I'm willing to do on the subject for now:

It does not surprise me that shark beat sharp in google, but BJ your numbers are off because of the 's' at the end of sharp. These are the actual numbers.

I have been to several...and the correct term is "sharks".

Look, I don't care if you call it sharp or shark. I'm just interested in if anyone would like to play.

I play but not online. The local billiard hall I go to is one of the last indoor places I can smoke a cigar.

[NamPla]

It's "Pool Sharks".

So what does "8-ball" tattoo mean to YOU?

[Guest]

I used to play a lot of pool. Never heard the sharp term. Maybe its regional. Maybe it is an antique term from which "shark" arose. Much in the same way the dice game "Craps" arose from "Crabs".

Isn't smoking required at pool halls?

Yeah I posted a link to this in the Pub a couple of months ago
4 of us were playing for awhile

I'm a sharp pool shark so if you want a thrashing SM you know where I am so bring it on! :P

I'd even offered a mini tournament for some cash but nobody was interested so I never bothered

[Shadowmistress]

A thrashing? Really? You sure?

I'm up for a game anytime anyone wants to play. (hear that Stilt?)
And if you ever get that tournament thing going, I'd most likely be there.

[MackemX]

bring it on!

[stiltman]

[Shadowmistress]

See you in room 4 for now.
