Playing Pool

I can still remember when my father would still play billiards at our local billiard halls. He was a good player. In fact, he would challenge anyone to a bet and most often than not, he would win. He Tried to teach me how to play billiards but not in the local pool halls because he said he did not want me to learn how to gamble. So, he bought a standard size billiard tables and a couple of billiard supplies. He taught me how to shoot and the basics of the game. I remember when he'd loose patience because I can not put myself to setting the ball to the next target and don’t know where to hit a ball to the proper placement.

Now, my father stoped playing billiards because of a medical condition that makes him allergic to dust smoke and the powder used to make the taco smooth. As for me, I have only learned enough to shoot.
