When you dream about playing pool?

Question

Good dreams or bad dreams? Is it normal and realistic, or are you playing on/with horribly deformed equipment, stuff the devil himself may have created? Can you play at all in your dreams?

Answer 1

Okay so there was this dream once...or at least a dream about a pool table...but I believe in this particular dream the pockets were toe holds.

lol couldn't pass it

Answer 2

Okay Lea, I've been saving this: I didn't really want to reveal it... but... since you talked me out of it...

I was being hustled by W.C. Fields last week. And you know what he was using? That d**n crooked cue stick that he used in the movies. The one that shot curve balls and did all kinds of tricks.

He broke open a rack of 9-ball, the cue ball bounced off the table... two caroms off the chandelier... once around the room, bumps off the coffee table and then ricochets off the mantle onto the table and knocked the '9' into the side pocket.

Pissed me off.

I'm trying everything I can do to beat this old bar-rag and he's laughing and puffing on that big-@ss cigar and slugging down shots of bourbon and such.

And then he has the nerve to ask if I care to... "put a small wager on the game?"

Cut... me... some... slack.

There, are you happy?

Here's a star anyway.

Answer 3

Been playing for many years but I can't ever remember dreaming about it. Doesn't mean I haven't though. They ( the so called experts)  say that most people dream every night but they only remember the most vivid dreams or around 5 % of them. And d**n if I don't wake up right in the middle of the best ones, lol.

Answer 4

Love the game and have lots of fantasies about it......but I can honestly say that I have never dreamed about it....I think you once asked about the perfect scenario...who I was playing and all what was going around me....I had the best answer and that would be my dream and especially the part about the 20 year old girl with the big cue balls...having 40 years on her.....that would be my perfect dream....sorry, Lea....could not pass it up!......I actually still have more dreams about "dunking" the basketball versus pool....even after 40 years out of high school!!!

Answer 5

Well Lea, I sometimes do dream about pool.  It's rare, but if I do, I'm usually reliving a particular match in my subconscious.  I might dream about a game that happened last week or a tournament from 2 years ago.  So to answer your question, it's usually more realistic, no 600+ ball runs against a befuddled Willie Mosconi or pocketing every ball on the break shot.  Sometimes, I'll just dream about the perfect draw shot or the sound of the cue tip contacting the cue ball.  Like I said, it's rare that I dream about pool.  Now, daydreaming is a different matter altogether.  M.D.-BCA Instructor/Referee.

Mickey You must have one h**l of a jump stick If you dunk a cue ball with it

Well one time bout these big hoop earrings rolling around the floor at Oscars

Answer 7

I always win when I play pool in my dreams.  I usually dream just before a tournament or right after.   I'm going to have to say they are unrealistic though, I make some pretty amazing shots in my dreams.
