Herb Hardt
Herbert Hardt (born c. 1907), was an American semi-professional carom billiards player from Chicago, Illinois. A bank clerk by day, Hardt took second place at the 1952 United States Eastern Regional Three-cushion Billiards Championship, thereby qualifying to play as one of ten contestants worldwide in the U.S.-hosted World Three-cushion Billiards Championship of the same year. Hardt came in dead last at the world championship, though he was competing against the best players in the world.
==Early career==
On February 18, 1932 it was reported that the prior night former national amateur champion, A. J. Harris had beaten Hardt 50 to 49 at three-cushion in Madison, Wisconsin.
In 1951 Herbt competed in the United States national billiards championship (three-cushion billiards) held in Chicago. On the first day of the tournament, February 16, 1951, Hardt beat Harold Worst 50-45 in 43 innings.〔
In February 1952 he was reported to be one of an eleven-man field playing in the Chicago sectional billiards tournament (three-cushion), and to have a 3–0 record at that time. The two winners of the tournament would graduate to the eastern regional championship, to be held in Buffalo, New York, in turn competing for a spot in the 1952 world tournament to be held in San Francisco, California where they would face defending champion, Willie Hoppe.〔 Hardt made it to the Buffalo regional and won his first three matches in the round robin tournament, with only two more players in his path, including Irving Crane, six-time world champion at straight pool. Although Hardt thereafter lost twice to Crane—first to even the standings of the men, three wins to one loss each, and a second time in 50 to 35 in 71 innings—he sewed up second place for a spot in the world tournament.
