I'm going to give you a tip and it's not just because I want to sell you a cue. You'll get more games if you have a nice playing cue. Players will usually want to bet more too! The more expensive your playing cue is the more action your going to get. With a break cue you can really smash the rack so you might consider one of those too. For jumping balls you can use your playing cue but a jump cue gets the cue ball up in the air quicker and easier. Playing cues impress your opponents. The more expensive your cue, the more opponents will bet. Break cues will get you more speed and are critical for a good break in games like 9-Ball. Jump cues get the cue ball up in the air quicker and help keep the cue ball on the table. Play Break Jump Congratulations on the purchase of your %s cue. That will get you more action than the piece of firewood you were playing with. Congratulations on the purchase of your %s cue. Trading down is tough but at least you have a little extra cash in your bankroll. Congratulations on the purchase of your %s cue. That cue won't get you quite as much action but it's a looker. Congratulations on the purchase of your %s break cue. You're going to really smash 'em with that baby. Congratulations on the purchase of your %s jump cue. Jump cues are a little touchy so I recommend some practice so you can control the height and distance the cue ball jumps. Confirm Purchase You have chosen to buy the %s cue.

Time to make some serious loot. Found Money! I won't play you here. You must come to the beach house to play me. Curly Says Says Easy Medium Hard Good Luck Dank is so cocky after beating you that he doesn't realize his $%d bankroll fell from his pocket. You quickly pick it up. Dude is so angry at losing to you that he doesn't notice that he paid you $%d too much. Oh darn! Unable to Pay Bet You notice the money you're putting into your wallet is fake. On top of that Raw Dawg doesn't have any real money to pay you. Before you can teach him a lesson he placates you by telling you about a secret back entrance to the Pit Stop. Won Money! You now have $%d in your wallet. Lost Money! Why are you bothering me? Get the money first, then I'll play you! Don't ask me to play if you don't have the cash! It's all about the money. When you get more, we can play. Until then, we can't. Look. Either you have enough cash or you don't. And you obviously don't. No Cash, NO GAME!!! Ok, you made it here, good for you, but you don't have enough money to play me yet. You need to do a bit more hustling before you're ready for me. Looks like you need to go raid the kids piggy bank before you can play me. You want me to take your IOU to cover the bet?!?! That's just plain crazy. I'm sorry, but I just can't play you if you don't have enough money. If you don't have enough money to play with the big boys, don't even bother trying! If you've got the money, honey, I've got the time. Too bad you don't have the money. You don't have enough money to play me. Some of the others might consider playing you if you had a better cue. You can't afford me. I'll give you a hint though - if you had a better cue you might get more bets. The Tourney Director Says You don't have enough money to pay the entry fee. I'm not fronting you so go find a game you can afford. Word has travelled around that you beat the best player in the world. There is no way I'm playing you! I have nothing left to bet. You've already taken all my money. Backer Found Curly has found a backer. You don't have to play him, your career is complete, you beat the best and can walk away a winner. If you have the heart, try and beat Curly again. Be warned that Curly plays jam up when he is not betting his own money. Can't Enter Room You are denied entry to this pool room because it is locked.
