1) This was filmed in January before the Coronavirus outbreak in America. The Coronavirus is real. Stay home and watch a movie. 2) I had to reupload this without the Full House clip because they took down the video. 3) We're saving The Color of Money for the next video.
Quick "Pool/Job hire" story. I was playing a guy in a bar. He kept coming at me with distractions, money, raising the amounts the whole 9 yards. During our sets he decided to distract me with a lot of questions. One of the questions: "So what do you do when you're not shooting pool?" I replied with, "it's mostly pool right now as i'm in between jobs". He asked "what do you do?" I said "I'm a professional truck driver" He asked "you any good though?" As I was potting the Eight for yet another 100$ game, "yeah!" His response "Well, you cleaned me out of my pocket stash, while stating you were a good pool player, so I can only assume you are as good at driving . . so you're hired!" I looked at him all confused. He replied "I own a trucking company, you can start Monday if you want a job" :)
I assumed he asked for the sake of the viewers who might not know. It's very common for interviewers to ask questions they already know the answer to, because people watching or listening later might not. I've interviewed people for broadcast and have done this many times.
@@RollieWilliams You're welcome. Me too. I'm so thankful and grateful to be exactly where I'm at. 🙏 And no matter if it changes, I'll still be thankful.
Worth mentioning that the late great Willie Mosconi did in fact consult for The Hustler. Additionally, I've seen it mentioned (though I can't provide a source) that every shot other than the weird masse shot in the film was executed by the actors. Mosconi also toured demonstrating several shots he set up for the film, including the "cheater" shot.
I met Jennifer, and a few others, at a pool expo in Philly a couple of years ago. Safe to say she is just as sweet and beautiful in person. Itd be cool if she saw this lol. It was a pleasure.
Nice vid. Been waiting for one of these. Everyone is getting in the act from robbers to mountaineers to brain surgeons. Good to finally have a pool one. Thanks for sparing us the Tom Cruise Cosmo runout.
@@PointNemo9 No man, you gave the premise you wanted. I was joking with the fact that he used an open bridge, which is mostly used in snooker, in spite of the, mostly popular in pool, closed bridge. No second intentions, no looking at fingers, etc. Have a nice day.
Major oversight not to give big kudos to Jackie Gleason in the Hustler, who was a top flight pool player himself. Check out his 60 minutes interview where he runs out on Morley Safer.
She is right about Southwest cue. I personally had 3 of them, one from 1985 (Jerry Franklin era), one from 2009 and one from 2014, but I sold the last 2 already. The waiting list on those cues are ridiculously insane, my buddy ordered one since 2009 and still didn't get it. And they are one of these cues that hold value very well on the market (especially Franklin era, or ebony nose ), also not cheap either, u won't find one for less than $3000. Still, it's not about the cue, it all depends on who's holding it. And there are alot of cue makers that can make cues as good as Southwest for way cheaper.
Awesome content Rollie. I just fell over your channel a week ago or so and have already seen all your vids.. I dont' even play pool - but I guess i have to start now. :) this channel is going to be huge.
Sounded like he was asking "which of the people in the scene is Willie Mosconi" and she took it to mean he didn't know who he was. I could be wrong though.
I really hope so. In nearly every sport, there can be entertaining debates as to who is the best ever, but Willie Mosconi is the greatest pool player to ever live & Wayne Gretzky is the greatest hockey player.
Paul Newman sequence aka the Chad effect : "Thats not a legal shot" "He didn't make that shot for sure" "He has a decent form" Few seconds later "He looks so great that's the best pool movie of all time"
Not sure I understand the Chad reference with Newman and if I am being a prick wondering this. However....I have a question on a "legal shot" in Pool Hall Junkies - about 11 minutes into the movie. Skimmed this video, and did not see it talked about here, asked in another thread and no answer. If you or anyone feels like answering, it was the 8ball wired to the cue ball next to corner pocket. Looked like he double tapped the cue tip to the cue ball at least once and pushed it into the corner. One day I shall find this answer damnit! Can provide time stamp to the movie if needed fwiw.
White collar was a TV series about a con artist . If you haven't seen it it's worth looking into . Thank you for taking the time to do these . I enjoy them alot .
It happened to me once in my life, completely by accident I might add, where I managed to hit two balls at once, and send them in a straight line in their respective corner pockets. The feeling is immeasurable. And I only ever play for fun. I am by no means a pro.
Willie Mosconi WAS the greatest pool player to ever play the game until Efren Reyes stepped on the scene. No disrespect to Willie, but today's pool is a lot more technical and so is the equipment.
I think he is the greatest for what he achieved and meant to the sport as an icon, not because his skill is unsurpassed. Although his skill was amazing the game has evolved.
Pool Hall Junkies is by far the best pool movie ever made, my opinion. Jennifer to act like it was just an okay movie is to funny. She is old enough to know Ricky Schroeder. Best movie, I just watched it again the other day. Watched it 100 times and will watch it 100 more. If your a pool player you have watched them all. Good video just a lil biased on her own video.
He didn't just foul, he cheated. The cue tip is only allowed to hit the cue ball no matter what game you are playing. His cue tip hits the striped ball, and the striped ball sends the object ball into the pocket. Hand faster than the eye.
Ha!! One of your better uploads.. Loved it! Cool to get some insight from Jennifer and I got a bonus.. Need to look up that episode of White Collar. Thanks!
I watched this video last week when it was first uploaded and it included a pool segment from Full House. What happened to that? Was this edited down and uploaded again?
I saw Danny Diliberto in a Melbourne Florida pool room trying to match up with someone. He said "I got a briefcase full of money outside." The guy said "Bs." Danny went outside, opened the trunk of his car and pulled out a briefcase. Went inside and out in on the table. Full of cash. Maybe 84 or 85. Ask him...
She's the sort of woman who could be a deadly pool hustler. She is hot and feminine to rock a dress/heels and act meek, etc..But skilled professionally to wreck guys she plays against. 👍
Rick Schroder (turtle neck sweater) former child actor, Mars Callahan pool player, actor, and director. Played a recording engineer in the movie that thing you do, with Tom Hanks.
it's funny about the whole "pros dont do that" criticism in regards to Poolhall Junkies.....IT WAS A GAME ABOUT HUSTLERS! Obviously they're not going to act like pros lol
No, he in fact did not….he taught him and helped consult the movie, but did not shoot them. Some of those shots took over a week alone just practicing.
Jennifer is being WAAAY too nice... These are horrible 😂 Also, there's a cantonese martial arts pool movie with Jimmy White in it and a shit load of masse shots. You should do that movie next haha. I think it’s called legend of the dragon or something with Stephen Chow?
What a camera quality - looks amazing. I am a little envious :D
Love your videos dude, them GoPro clips are great!
Stepped his game up
Sharivari please do some one pocket videos much love

Isn't that fair use tho?
Full House still does that with that old ass clip? lol
@@arsenalexploiterreports6766 I thought so but apparently not.
I didn't see the Full House clip, can you put it back in?
The shot from the hustler was legal he hit a solid first

did this man with a billiards dedicated youtube channel really just ask who willie mosconi is? thats rollie for ya lmfaoo

The guy that wants to be on Efren level doesn't know one of the greatest players ever
John broke the first record then Shaw broke it the 2nd time
How about Mike Eufemia? He claimed the have had runs of 555 and 625.@@zanethind
"And I'm Rollie Williams. I'm okay." "Just happy to be here." I love this video and the humor.👌😂 And I love everything and everybody else, too.
Thanks Erno, just happy to be here.

Poolhall Junkis is underrated . Some great quotes through
You said it Joe. Shoot it all !!!
I cut myself shavin
Best pool movie actually
Confession of a pool hustler…
Bobby Cotton
Brilliant the way Rollie is constantly digging at himself and admitting his averageness at the game 😀
Rollie is awsome! A breeze of fresh air into the culture of pool.
Wow, this is amazing! A great take on a classic RUclips video series. We love you, Rollie!
Nice vid. Been waiting for one of these. Everyone is getting in the act from robbers to mountaineers to brain surgeons. Good to finally have a pool one. Thanks for sparing us the Tom Cruise Cosmo runout.
Turtle neck guy, was Ricky Schroeder. They couldn’t have got a more menacing actor to play that part.😂😂😂
He wasn’t supposed to be menacing..
yeah he was in the show silver spoons
Jennifer: "He's got the: I-just-learned-how-to-play-pool-bridge-hand"
Every snooker player: Say what now miss..?
She wasn't referring to the open bridge, but how the fingers were bunched together rather than spread. No snooker player has a bridge like that.
His hand was flat, thumb hardly raised and fingers not spread, bad snooker or pool bridge hand.
Geez guys, take a breath... Just a joke 😂
@@rflc92 A joke based on a false premise
@@PointNemo9 No man, you gave the premise you wanted. I was joking with the fact that he used an open bridge, which is mostly used in snooker, in spite of the, mostly popular in pool, closed bridge. No second intentions, no looking at fingers, etc. Have a nice day.
Shooting Gallery (starring Freddie Prinze Jr) and that Fresh Prince episode would be worthy of analysis also
Todd Collings nah the Fresh Prince episode was nothing but setup trick shots. Jen would have torn into it.

The movie Kiss Shot wasn't in this video. :( I was waiting for it
Great video ! You look so confident, congratulations for all your success !
I want to see Rollie and Jennifer do a video on Pretty Boy Floyd "Jimmy Mataya" and that hustler video he put out. Lol Now that would be funny!!!
They were going to, but they learned so much from watching the video they are too busy now, hustling thousands of dollars.
Yesss I love this! After.Color of money I looked for all references in movies and tv related to pool
I really like Jennifer..She seems to be a pretty down to earth chick..She is a good teacher of the game. Keeps it simple.
Jennifer is hands down one of the most beautiful female pool players on mother earth....Must be a blast getting to hangout and play pool with her...
How could you skip the color of money
Kiss Shot (some mentioned already) and Turn the River are two other pool movies starring women
Did you SERIOUSLY ASK “ Who is Willie Mosconi”????
Sounded like he was asking "which of the people in the scene is Willie Mosconi" and she took it to mean he didn't know who he was. I could be wrong though.
he's asking for the audience
I really hope so. In nearly every sport, there can be entertaining debates as to who is the best ever, but Willie Mosconi is the greatest pool player to ever live & Wayne Gretzky is the greatest hockey player.
@@miket8497 Mosconi was great but if you ask any pro player today most will say Efran Reyes is the greatest player to ever play the game.
thanks again Rollie for the awesome content.
have seen all of these video/movies except for 9 ball ive been trying to find it somewhere for years
Jennifer actually shows some impressive acting talent in the Nine Ball movie.
Paul Newman sequence aka the Chad effect :
"Thats not a legal shot"
"He didn't make that shot for sure"
"He has a decent form"
Few seconds later
"He looks so great that's the best pool movie of all time"

"I mean I had to keep going. I can't stop just because a guy was going to shoot me..." 😂😀
You can’t end the hustler without seeing the bank-combo (and balls are not in the jaws of the pocket)!
Jesus Christ! This host was overwhelmed by his guest 😂😂😂
White collar was a TV series about a con artist . If you haven't seen it it's worth looking into . Thank you for taking the time to do these . I enjoy them alot .
Oh and ty for this video i love breaking things down like yall do
This is an awesome video. Great job Rollie.
I was waiting for the colour of money the whole time
yep me too, that had a great misses in it too.
When people shark me by threatening to shoot me, I always tend to miss my position too.
Gotta stay focused.
I hope for episode 2 with Color of Money, Stickmen or some philipino movies.
watch pakners starring Efren Bata Reyes and the late Fernando Poe Jr.
rollie is a goof, jennifer is so freaking cool and funny.
I've watched 9BALL a few times. good story line and of course Jennifer
A follow up could be "color of money", "shooting gallery", "turn the river" (nice one pocket), "Baltimore Bullet" (notorious illegal break shot)
I'm not familiar with that and Googling "baltimore bullet" brings up a bunch of crime stories for some reason.
@@5000rgb en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Baltimore_Bullet this one mate ;)
Just happy to be here 😂😂
You forgot one of the best movies about pool, Color Of Money.
Yes WHERE IS THE COLOR OF MONEY!??!?!
Clearly didnt do his research
Most people don't remember it... never mind the fact that no-remake can 8 or 9-ball it.
Seriously. One of my favorite movies of all time. I regret watching this video thinking they would talk about it.
Yep, before I knew who keith mccready was I saw that movie and immediately knew that guy was for real.
Another movie to look at is Kiss Shot with whoopi goldberg, I hear she did all her own shots in that movie
Jerry Briesath was the consultant for that movie
Willie Mosconi was also in the Baltimore Bullet, and I think I saw "Machine Gun" Lou Butera.
It happened to me once in my life, completely by accident I might add, where I managed to hit two balls at once, and send them in a straight line in their respective corner pockets. The feeling is immeasurable.
And I only ever play for fun. I am by no means a pro.

The baron and the kid with Johnny Cash,the color of money,kiss shot with Whoppi Goldberg
Jennifer please add 'turn the river" to your next pool movie review
I hope you still remember my reply about the twilight zone episode "a game of pool"!
Perfect for when you're filming episode 2 in like January 2021
You should do a segment on Pro Bowlers and movies
Happy to be here

Yous left out the best pool movie ever coler of money
Rollie Fingers legend of pool
3:29 is NOT a foul. They're playing straight pool. Anyone who's seen the movie would know that.
He didn't just foul, he cheated. The cue tip is only allowed to hit the cue ball no matter what game you are playing. His cue tip hits the striped ball, and the striped ball sends the object ball into the pocket. Hand faster than the eye.
Mosconi did all the trick shots on The Hustler..and Jackie Gleason was considered an A player in real life.

I watched this video last week when it was first uploaded and it included a pool segment from Full House. What happened to that? Was this edited down and uploaded again?
4:37 What about Mike Eufemia's runs of 555 and 625 on Feb. 2, 1960? I think they have both been broken by now.
You should have put the pool scenes from fresh prince of Bel air with uncle Phil...that's one is comedy
Gotta love that sweet shot at the end :D great video!
I saw Danny Diliberto in a Melbourne Florida pool room trying to match up with someone. He said "I got a briefcase full of money outside." The guy said "Bs."

Mars Callahans character Johnny actually played position for the nineball side pocket bank intentionally because he was known as the "side pocket kid"
Rollie u don’t know who Willie Mosconi is? But you’ve watched the “Mosconi Cup” how many times????
Your killing me smalls!
He wanted Jennifer to answer the question for the benefit of viewers who didn't know.
Fun video. She seems like a cool person. Rollie seems pretty cool too
This is a cool video. JB is great, thanks for making and posting it.
Mosconi is Arnold Palmer. But Reyes is like Nicklas to the power of Woods.
Loved this thanks!
I enjoyed her comment a lot.. hope better pool movie is coming soon.
In White Collar, are they playing 8-ball or straight pool? Also, Turn The River had some good pool shots, too.
where can i watch that 9 ball movie? netflix?
This woman was your comedic equal.
Rollie you're the GOAT
I think that honor belongs to uncle Phil.
I guess you're right. You're great though. Greetings from Italy
JB...I’ll take the 8 if you’re ever in AZ! FR 610. You and I play even, Rollie
Rick Schroder (turtle neck sweater) former child actor, Mars Callahan pool player, actor, and director. Played a recording engineer in the movie that thing you do, with Tom Hanks.

Why skip "the Color of Money" ?
The Hustler covers it. It's the prequel.
I played pool in the Riverea many times
She looks like she’d sing your country heart away
Damn Jennifer is still looking good
Very good video! Love the wpba and Jennifer. I love playing pool.
'look how concentrated you are'
just like orange juice.
Both of you were great here.
how can she not love this movie, its such a classic. gives red flags if you just say eh I didn't really like it and are a pool player but whatever.
Love this, keep them coming
She is smoking hot and a great player.
The sky is blue
@@DarianG98 Well, you know, sometimes, stating the obvious is just the right thing to do!
Southwest Cues has a 15 year waiting list, but they don’t have a website... interesting.
Mosconi made all Newman’s shots where you just see Newman’s hand
Wish you'd have shown the trickiest shots from poolhall junkies
On the next installment, be sure to include the Seinfeld episode where Frank gets a pool table.
1:38: It's good to know that Jennifer has never heard of Justin Bergman.
White collar was a good show , liked all of the movies
willie mosconi did the trick shots in the Hustler
No, he in fact did not….he taught him and helped consult the movie, but did not shoot them. Some of those shots took over a week alone just practicing.
11:00 In the game of 3 ball that would be a nice shot.
Table sitter at 3:12! Who's watching the room. Where's Greg?
Jennifer is being WAAAY too nice... These are horrible 😂
Also, there's a cantonese martial arts pool movie with Jimmy White in it and a shit load of masse shots. You should do that movie next haha. I think it’s called legend of the dragon or something with Stephen Chow?
