Pool Tourney for SETX Seniors

Where did you start playing pool? For me it was a small town pool hall known as much for the frequent fights as for the quality of actual pool play. I’m too old for that nonsense now. I prefer a nice, quiet, civilized place to play pool with other civilized adults. If that’s the kind of game you’re looking for, try the Best Year’s Center in Beaumont. They have a great pool room- just for Beaumont seniors.  The Pool Hall at Best Years Center will have a... Read More

Qualifying for Christmas Pool Tournament

Pool is a great game for SETX seniors.  It’s not a game that requires the brute strength or stamina we had in our youth. In a lot of ways, Southeast Texas seniors actually have a lot of advantages over younger players. First, a retiree has a lot more time to practice than a young guy with a full time job and growing kids. Second, patience counts for a lot in pool. Young players often lack patience- they want to hit the ball hard, sink multiple balls every turn, and to try... Read More
