I've seen him around here before.
He plays real strong.
Were you curious about more? =P

That time frame is not bad for a pool player. But thanks for the warning.

P.S. What is the reward amount? What info do you want? Who stands good
for the reward money? Can I trust that they will pay if I provide?

Royal Family? I thought this was well known in the pool community. Still,
he left St. Louis a couple of years ago with a trail of unpaid markers that
would impress the IMF. I've heard that he just lost many Pokeman cards down
in the Atlanta area to Mr. Cooney. You may have to wait in a rather long
line to get paid...

yes, the jellybeans were definitely flowing into Mr. Cooney's pocket
on that one. But it was a helluva match to drop by and watch. =)

So how does this separate him from most other pool players? :)

You're not doing Cliff Joyner's reputation any good here.

about not getting paid back by a traveling pool player. I know how it feels
though, to the tune of $50, which I lent to Larry Price. I saw Larry in
Atlanta, and operating on the theory that the best defense is a good
offense, the first thing he asked me for was to lend him $90 more. Cliff
Joyner is a great pool player, and I think you have to admire these guys for
their pool playing ability, and not expect too much of them in other areas
such as higher mathematics and paying back debts. By the way, who is the
"Mr. Cooney" that Cliff apparently had a money match with in Atlanta? I saw
Immonen give Cliff a pool lesson, but I didn't know there was anyone else
there who could wax him.

Jack Cooney is an excellent one-pocket player and an even better
gambler. He keeps a book on everybody, knows what he needs to win,
and is very patient. I would love to have the opportunity and cash to
play him sometime, along with the talent I'd need to keep up. Joey
has probably seen Jack's game fairly often.
Times like this, I wish I was back 70 miles from Mr Cue #2! Maybe
they'll still be there this summer...

finished the 1-pocket tournament earlier, and Cliff Joyner had beaten Larry
Price to win first place. I don't know if Immonen played in the 1-pocket
tournament. Sitting down in the sort of elevated viewing area with tables
that they have near the bar at Mr. Cue's II, I looked over and saw Joyner
and Immonen playing 9 ball on the far side away from us. I recognized
Immonen from earlier Camel events. Unfortunately I don't have any details,
I could just see Immonen pocketing balls like a machine and Joyner racking.
My friend who was to play in the 9 ball tournament knew Joyner as what he
calls a "champion", I didn't know Joyner at the time. The next morning I
bet my three spectator friends $20 each that Immonen would come in 1st,
Immonen against the field, which of course I won. But I also bet each of
them $10 that Ben Deutsch would come in 2nd, which was not a good bet.
Sitting at that same primo table, we watched Immonen in several matches. He
is awesome.

Of what worth is someone who cannot be trusted to pay back his
debts? This isn't just a minor character flaw.

things.
1. You will be playing one of the best pool players in the world.
2. You will be playing someone who will teach you by example what a real
competitor is.
3. Cliff will not shark you.
That is more than you get from many top pool players. So from my point of
view, there is great value in Cliff Joyner.
Just remember the old saying, "A fool and his money are soon departed".

Yeah, and how much money does Cliff have? It sounds as if Cliff and
his money have parted on many occassions.

That would be Cliff.
I honestly don't know the answer to that question.

I forgot. In order for Cliff to part with his money he must
have money in the first place.
I love this idea of a backer. A backer, IMO, has to be the
biggest sucker of all. What kind of deal is that? "Gee, if I put
up a thousand bucks and win, I win $500." A person placing a side
bet would win $1000. DOH!
How pool players manage to talk people into backing them I have
no idea.

watch to tell you what time it is and then sells it back to you. Somehow
you are getting screwed, but you are not always sure how. Same deal with a
backer.

take 75% of the score.

Yeah, to those he borrowed money from he was probably worthless.
Are you saying that Mozart borrowed money he didn't pay back?
What a scumbag.

It's still a bad bet. Compared to this bet, playing in a casino
is a sure-thing.
