I learned how to align to the shot by watching CJs online courses. He makes it easy to understand getting on the shot line and he gives u exercises to practice making you automatically shoot online without thinking. I hope you still teach the same things as about 2 years ago CJ! Good stuff. Keep it coming. U need to have Kim on soon
Awesome stuff guys. I miss my good friend, Harold Dollar. After he passed away, the pool room just wasn't the same. He was a great man and one hell of a player. When he struck the cue ball, it just sounded different. He hit the ball so pure and like Jimmie said, he could generate a lot of power with those short arms. Looking at him being a short pudgy guy who waddled around, you would never guess he was a stone cold killer on the table, but he surely was. He got 7th/8th in the US Open one year, and both matches he lost were on the hill, with the second one being to Allen Hopkins, who Harold said "shit out on him" that match.
Stuff like this is why I'll watch an hour TH-cam video. Love it. Your survey results in fact were not surprising. People are fascinated by the underworld be it pool, mafia or motorcycle gangs. Looking forward to the next installment.
Despite some opinions the education we get in pool rooms is very valuable, it's been a topic of several conversations lately - I know several very successful men with a strong moral compass that credit Jimmie and the Speakeazy PR with helping them strengthen their business and especially negotiating $kills......a PHD (Pool Hall Degree) is more than it seems to people that haven't experienced this type knowledge! The Game is the Teacher 💪
When there's a good reason - Fayetteville has a reputation that has kept me away through the years....maybe it's better now I would have to ask Jimmie.
CJ i sure would like to have some lessons from you, im watching your stream and i love it , i could listen to your stories for ever! Im from west monroe La. Home of Scotty Townsend, did you ever run into him?
Yes Scotty and I were friends and we gambled several times....there's a story on my TH-cam channel about us teaming up in Las Vegas and mowed down all the tournament and top bar table players there....so a search and you'll find it with my name and his.
I certainly do, we played several times especially in Atlanta when Mean Dean Moore was staking him....he gave me the 7 Ball at first so things were not in his favor because he didn't know my speed and I was very young.
Jimmie is one of the best people I know on the entire planet. When I lived in Pinehurst 01-03, I used to make a daily trek up to the Speakeazy to absolutely torture Jimmie on Bertha! 😂 I love that guy to death!
I’m from St. Louis and my grandpa told me stories about st Louie Louie. Fascinating
I’m from Saint Louis as well and always enjoyed the old heads telling stories about Louie at Cue and Cushion and Teachers.
@@Bluehorseshoe4 you still play here in St. Louis?

Harold was certainly a NC legend, I met him a few times but my cover had been blown so never gambled but knew he was a formnible opponent!
Very interesting. Loved it! Jimmy was awesome. Thanks, CJ.
I enjoyed this looking forward to the next one
Great video. I’ve been watching your videos now for a while on the recommendation of a friend Scott Wright.
