Update: My brother called at 6:30 this morning to ask me to take over for him at the pool hall. The big money guys that came in last night were still going at, but he didn't have enough energy left to keep it open for them and our business was making too much money off these big money hustlers to run them out. They went for another hour and a half; the guy who was earlier boasting that he could go until 5 grand got tapped out somewhere around twelve hundred in the hole, and a very angry wife had to come in to write cheques to his debtors. Pool hustlers get cranky when they play for 12 hours and get cheques at 8:00 on Sunday morning, but I managed to keep things from getting ugly. Still, the money was worth keeping things open, and I'm feeling confidant again concerning getting the place out of the red and into the green this month!
