One-pocket legend and great all-around player John Ervolino has passed away.

Would love to hear from those who knew him or played him.

Is the black widow pool player still alive today

I'll lead off by sharing what I know of him and what my experiences were with him.

I first saw Ervolino play at the Golden Q poolroom in Queens, NY, in the late 1960's. He lived in Brooklyn and was known to many as Brooklyn Johnny.

His best game was one-pocket, but he was `a superb straight pool player, too. Still, when he was in big action, it was nearly always in one pocket.

He spent a lot of time with his very dear friend Jersey Red at home and on the road.

Johnny moved to Las Vegas in the early 1970's but still made it back to NYC often, and in his later years, when he did, he spent much of his time at the Amsterdam Billiard Club, where I played him a few times.

The most memorable thing he did in my presence was running eight and out in three consecutive racks of bank pool.
