Hu made an awesome comment in a thread I was attempting to derail. He talked about luck being part of a skillset developed over time playing a certain type of pool.
I've often thought about this and how to explain it. I find myself apologizing over and over for leaving someone bad. Can't count the times I've heard "you get the rolls dude."
I've come to the realization that for me, in my game, I get the rolls. It happens far too often for it to be luck.
I'm going to look into this further. There's always the chance I'm full of shit.
Anybody else see this in their game??

I thought about 2 way shots and leaving the CB bad should something miss, that It usually just works that way. Over time it becomes almost subconscious. I get "rolls" more than anybody I know but I spent a few years heavily focused on 2 way shots.

EDIT: It also amazes me that many people do not see caroms/billiards and the like. They think it's luck and I let them continue to believe it. There's tons of things you can do with 2 way shots... put the CB in a particular place and take a 15% 3 rail bank or something, 15% of the time it works, the other times the CB is safe anyway.

It's hard to explain but sometimes you just have a good feeling about a particular shot and it works. Protect the CB and roll the dice.

You guys need to contact B'wick directly with these issues. I'm sure people are giving f'back but they need to hear all the bad shit.

-I did directly to Nick President for the ball return a couple months ago. He wrote back to me they were working on it.

-I just did a few days ago for the rail scratching, and linked a video. No response to that. I also messaged Oscar D. He was going to talk with Nick President about it. They def know.
