Good Interview: 'Last Great American Pool Hustler'

[rubixxcube]

The major problem pool is facing nowadays ironically is poker and the pool scene is dying.

The amount of money to be made in pool is very little. Lately many pool players are hanging up their sticks to play poker since there is so much more money to be made in poker and not much in pool.

In the sub pro level of pool many many tournaments are getting worse and worse turnouts. So many people you talk to about tour stops etc say they are not going but instead they are going to poker rooms and tournaments.

As fishydonkey is from philly and would probably agree on this one.

For example, fishydonkey Valley Forge has had worse and worse turnouts in the past few years wouldn't you say?

I could go on and on about the problems the pool world and the problems pool players have in general but iw ouldn't even know where to start.
