Never had you pegged for a Backgammon player.

Now that you mention it, I did leave a private club recently where someone much younger than me disrespected me, my point-of-view, and my personal experience.

Why do you ask? Seems like a non-sequitur relative to the post you quoted.

How did they disrespect you?

And how did you react to this feeling of disrespect?

It happened in a private club and therefore I wouldn't consider it to be public business.

Why this sudden inquisition out of the blue, and why would this be any of your concern?

You left the chamber again?

Unreal.

He obviously went easy on me.

What causes humans to do that?

Pity? Care? Avoiding a psycho?
Pool is called Biliar [or Bilyar] here in Indonesia, although some do call it "Billiards", albeit usually not with 2 Ls and more often than not without the S at the end. Technically speaking, it's called Bola Sodok which literally means "poke ball". This may refer exclusively to a baffling Indonesian variant of the rules that I have played. I may have seen Snooker being played once in Jakarta, not sure, I have a vague memory of it, but I have certainly never seen anyone playing Billiards [i.e. a red ball and two cue balls] here.

Backgammon and Cribbage I will play money for.
Thank you for your kindness in recognizing that I had probably mixed up Cribbage and Backgammon when I posted the "pegged" post.

Basically it's soccer vs football but with a pool table.

It's called Pool.

Sometimes Billiards.

USA! USA! USA!

I cheat peg a lot in Cribbage.

It's up to you to catch me.

I used to hustle at pool a bit as a sideline when I was playing a pretty high level of darts in the North London leagues in the late 1980s. There was strictly no money/bets involved in the darts.
