Are you one of the developers? The physics on this seem really good from a few minutes of play.

Yes, this has been a hobby project of mine for years. The physics is slowly improving, but its mainly down the many free maths mechanics research papers published - I reference them here https://github.com/tailuge/billiards#cushion-bounce . Its a free open source project, what it really needs now is more players - hope to see you there someday for a game.

Interesting project, looks great. You referenced some of the classic papers on pool physics, I too used those (see the github readme). The paper that really improved realism was Mathavan. The way the cue ball grips and slips on the cushion is key and that paper really has a good take on it. Reference my implementation here https://github.com/tailuge/billiards#cushion-bounce .

I would like someone who understands the many diamond systems to collaborate and create a free course, and use these diagrams/questions to help the learner use it in practice (no programming required).

Hate to hear this Jay. I'm so sorry you are having to go through this. But remember you are not going through this alone. Every one that knows you and has picked up a cue is backing you right now. Just keep on keeping on and give us updates on your progress.

This is funny to me. We are in between generations and common knowledge. 10 years ago you’d be a criminal.

I get the generation that believed in “Reefer Madness”, but opiates are much more dangerous.

Future generations will not see the stigma we’ve attached to marijuana, while pill pushing pharmaceutical companies will likely still be ruining lives legally.

In short, you would be a much more respectable member of society if you would ask your doctor to prescribe you some Vicodin.

Do you think that playing 14.1 / Straight Pool can help a players game out at all? At least with Consistency?

Do you think that just practicing 14.1 would be helpful, or would drills be better? Doing any kind of drills were always so boring to me though…

I think you know the answer.

Can you consistently find where you lose your focus and recognize the transitions where you break down.

If you don’t like to do drills, pick a transition where you’re an underdog. Now set up an end pattern where that transition is shot #1. Play it until you can succeed 80%. Then create another variation that attacks another weakness early.

danny could beat rich every day in and out. so what if he won once. fluke.

When I first started posting here I showed my ass and you eviscerated me. Dang it hurt, but it was well deserved. You speak from experience and command respect.

Keep getting after it!

Bullshit Jay!
Can’t choose the place or choose the time
You’ll climb the hill in your own way

And as you rise above the fear lines in your brow
You look down see the faces in the crowd.


I know you’ve lived a life well lived, but don’t forget you’re from Ohio. The Philippines might be sweet, but my dad has mentioned more than a couple times since spring started that he’s glad we live so close to the Cleveland Clinic.

Here come doctor, I’m gonna ask you once again
Didn’t you leave Ohio with a heavy load of friends
Yes sir, when we left the station our friends were on board
But West Virginia was they could afford

Any trades if so pm me

Good luck and have fun.

I also believe in the power of playing 14.1 for practice , as it teaches you how to see combination shots and how to break out problem balls as well as working on cue ball speed and control .
I feel its got way more positives than negatives to help improve your game .

That and mapping out for the break shot. Playing safes.

I tend to use a slower stroke speed for the majority of shots since I am playing position on all the balls.

It involves mapping the table and clearing out zones where balls are scattered. There’s a lot less cue ball
movement because of overall shot selection flexibility instead of chasing the next number ball or pursuing
shape on stripes and solids scattered around the table. And you’re also playing more precise position so
the cue ball has a break shot on the last ball. So when I play 14.1, I navigate the cue ball a little differently.
