Greetings and Salutations!
Welcome to Jane’s house! In this house, we are polite, respectful and expect to have some good clean fun. I’ve come across some interesting folks and fantastic shots on this Pool-adventure and I don’t see it slowing down anytime soon.
I felt the world needed a better resource for poolplayers and poolaholics everywhere.
Pool is one of those sports (and yes it is a sport!) that unless you are there, it’s tough to show someone how it went down. No amount of explaining or drawing on napkins really does the shot you just made justice. They just won’t get it…Maybe if they play and if you can explain it right, they will get an idea of how amazing your shot was…but more often than not you get a lot of “un-huhs” and polite nods. With technology today, I’m pleased to present some of the finest shots in pool by some of the most inspiring players around the country and in the world.
On this site you will find highlights of players, tournament schedules, product reviews, Opinions about Pool and anything and everything I get a notion for. I encourage you to explore the videos, watch the players, learn some new shots — if you’ve never seen it, how likely is it you’re going to remember it in the middle of a game? Engage, make comments, play in tournaments, sponsor players and grow the sport.
So as I started with, Welcome to Jane’s house. #wehavefunhere. It’s not about winning or losing, it’s about playing the game. Once upon a time I was a minnow too, and with hours of practice, an open mind and some very patient friends, I’ve started to swim with Sharks. I have long since started a torrid love affair with this often unpredictable game and through the ups and downs, wins and losses, perfect shape and JaneShape shots and the end is no where near. We will not go softly into that goodnight – we will rage, rage against the light!
XoX,
Jane

Yesterday’s #Shenanigans were hosted by the #MetroDenverAPA at the Mirage. Chad Duus and I competed against some #excellent #poolplayers and were #happy to #split the tournament with the lovely Jennifer Honemann Carroll and amazing Brandon Krug who beat us for the #hotseat.
It was a fantastic day of #battle and I could not be more proud of the way we played together. We used time outs effectively, executed some #phenomenal shots, and worked some serious #strategy.
The #poolgods were generous and we #crushedit.
Thanks to all that helped to run a smooth tournament. Another excellent adventure.
@eeyore_stunts you were simply amazing. Savor it. 22-9 is a hell of a good day.
Until next time.

New #trophy to add to my #collection. I #won the #queenofthehill #apaleagues #pooltournament today.
I played difficult races all day (5-2,5-3 mostly - but towards the end I played a 4-5 and a 5-4 race) and shut out a few #girlsthatplaypool.
I lost the #hotseat match 3-4 (5-4 race) and had to beat a super 7 to get to the finals.
For the finals, I had to double dip her playing first 8ball (5-1 in a 5-4 race) and then we played an insanely close 9ball match where at the end I needed 4 balls and she needed 2. I won 55-36. It was a thrilling day and I am ever so #grateful the #poolgods were with me.

Super excited!! Played my little ❤️ out. Lost my first match against #Chef and then sent 5 players home and took 4th of about 28. This is one of my favorite tourneys in the country. Big table #9ball, with a ball spot handicap. Many of my matches they gave me the 8 + all the breaks, or last 2, or the last match was the 7. Depends on the skill level difference. Race to 3 on both sides. I was probably the lowest rated and the only #woman there.
So much #fun!! 🤑

There are some moments that remind me why I like to play. The tournaments are fun (yes even going 2nout) and I enjoy competing. I often play better in practice or with my friends... no pressure and I can make some #amazing things happen....
But this. I #love to hear myself laugh. Those #genuine moments that make me feel #alive.
In the end only one player wins.... but everyone else plays their little #hearts out. And you have to find a way to #enjoy both the #winning as well as the #losing. Losing teaches you to savor the wins. To appreciate the people you get to play with. To value the time spent and #justplay 😘

This guy came through!! Went #doublehill with Shane in the #Masters #8ball Finals at the #HighDesertShootout but dry broke the last game and took second. Strong finish!!! 💪🏻 I bought him in the #Calcutta - I knew he could get there. Cherry on top of a fantastic weekend in #Rawlins. 🤑
I’ve been enjoying playing #TSPN and watching #RodneyMorris promote it all over the country. I hear he will be in San Diego in October.
He is an amazing ambassador and a remarkable poolplayer.
Thanks @rocketrodney9! Way to go Champ!

This was one of my #favorite shots the whole #tournament. My first match he safeties me and leaves me tough. But the #nineball goes off the 5.
I called it and nailed it and still needed some #magic to get out. Can you guess what happened next?? #HIGHDESERTSHOOTOUT #WYOMING #girlsthatplaypool #janeshighlights #classicdivision #eightball #8ball #poolplayers

Sep 28 Rawlins, Wyoming
With this #goldenticket I made it to Day 2 on the right side.
Running through the first 3 games the first match, I made a few really strong shots and controlled the table well.
Fell apart in the middle but pulled it out in a safety battle at the end double hill. (I know, crazy to play safe and not always go for glory, but I’m learning to love the discipline it takes to wait for the right opportunity.) The second match I did not stream, but I managed to bank an 8 for the match win that round too. After winning, I looked up and the first person I saw was #SVB. I don’t know if he actually saw my shot, but I did get to say a quick hello in my adrenaline fueled state. (Pic taken right after my match)
It feels a little like what #heaven must. Savor the #undefeated moment and really enjoy the high of not just #winning, but playing well.
Who knows what tomorrow will bring, other than there is a very good chance of playing better and better players. The brackets do not get any easier from here.
I got to try out @billy__thorpe #Cuetec jump cue (hops!) and he gave me a few pointers....after he won his Saratoga Masters match 6-0 that I got to commentate on with Bad Roll, Inc. (Thanks Joshua Ramey 🤑) What a blast!! In the #immortal words of Ice Cube, ”Today was a good day!!” #luckyme #girlsthatplaypool #highdesertshootout #wyoming #poolcation #janestour2019

Tina lost to Lauren Ward on the right side, battled back through the left side to double dip Lauren in the #finals and win the Queen of the Barbox tournament at #Pockets today in #SanDiego. #teamLO
Excellent matches and fantastic shooting by all the ladies that came and battled it out this weekend.
I took 5/6th... one out of the money, but enjoyed every minute of it.
Thank you @billiardschick and Gabriel Fisz, and of course Lila Woodland for hosting a phenomenal Ladies event 💃🏻🎱 🏆

Such a great #partner, we have so much #fun #shooting together and making the best of what the table gives us.... and what we leave each other. He’s such a #goodsport...no matter where I leave him he says, no problem, that’s one of my #favorites.... or I like what you like. It’s a comfort shot. You pick I’m good with whatever you choose.
And then he really is. There is no wrong choice, he makes it super fun to play on our team, and the end of season #cash is always nice 👍 we can talk during the match, and he and I #takeadvantage of it. We win and lose as a team. It’s easily one of my fav leagues ever.

It was great to meet some #superfans from all over the country - and even Canada - out at #apanationals2019 in #Vegas 🎲 🎲
I had a blast getting to meet so many of you in person and it was fun to get to play a few racks 🎱
It made me so #happy and grateful to meet so many folks that have been #inspired by my little stream. Thanks for all the #support and laughs along the way 🤑
