Used to play competition 8 ball many years ago between 88 to 00 and took a few trophys.
Held most positions with running a club in the DDPL which was basically a hotel league.
Practiced twice a week and comp another night didn't help the liver too much.
Broke my right wrist during this time and had it repaired and had to spend the next 12 weeks playing left handed and become very competent at playing left handed.
Played in many money comps where you end up playing against what I consider pro's.
I too lost interest when the International rules came in and made it virtually a game of snooker.
Final straw was when the hotel I played for was totally rebuilt and they axed the pool room which the club had invested $1000's of dollars in.
