I'm not surprised... my sons second grade teacher offers tutoring classes in reading comprehension...

I might be able to set you up with a lesson ... if you can beat her one rack of 9-ball...

one sticking point ..I won't let her give you any weight...

see thats the thing about 9 ball... you guys act like running out a 9 ball rack is a world class accomplishment ...

the rest of us know that it's simply the minimum requirement to be a mediocre pool player...

take away the big bets and you suddenly become the underdog...


and deep down you know I'm right

I will pinch hit for Chris.

I have thrown this challenge out to the big mouth SoftShot before but it has gone unanswered. I will give you 2 to 1 on the money playing a race to 15 9 ball or 8 ball. I will give you 5 to 1 on the money playing a race to 6 one pocket. We both are located in Minnesota so let's make this happen SoftShot. Bet at least 300 per set.

Your last excuse was that gas was too expensive to drive the 45 minutes to the Twin Cities to play, after I offered to pay your expenses. I am quite interested to see what your excuse is this time.

Rossaroni can vouch for me that I will play the games offered.

I'm more familiar with that than you are. It doesn't tell you how to tell when a 1/2 ball hit is made; it tells you how to estimate where the cue ball will go when you make a 1/2 ball hit. This kind of specificity (and its importance) seems lost on you and Spidey, but without it you can't tell what was bet or who won. That's why it doesn't make sense to bet (or accept "challenges") with either of you.

Didn't even read it first, I just know that Dr.Dave has a ton of good info and you keep asking questions and figured why don't you go here and get your answers. Just trying hard to help.

Spidey:
I beg to differ.
Well, of course you do.

The last time you accepted a bet with me
Was never. You don't understand now that your "video challenges" are meaningless, and you didn't understand it then either. Nothing has changed.

Please do.

the reason why we don't bet anymore is because you don't pay.
We've never bet, so there is no "anymore". I think you might actually believe there was a bet, but that's because you simply don't know how to tell. That's why we'll never bet.

God, it took me forever to delete all those annoying PMs asking me to let up on ya and let you out.
LOL. I don't think anybody here believes this. You're revealing more of yourself than you want to.

Dr Dave,

I recommend you remove CTE instructions from your website, at least the two versions I followed in my test. Reasons why:

1. They did not work
2. CTE users on this thread said they were bad instructions after my test results.
3. I'd hate for someone else to waste time like I did trying to follow them.

Thank you.



I agree. Remove them....SPF=randyg

When instructions for a better version become available, I will be happy to post them. Until then, all we have is what I have collected from various sources.

BTW, the versions on my CTE resource page do work if you adjust the "effective pivot length" the right amount for each cut angle. See the resource page for more info.

Regards,
Dave

Mr. B has WAYYYYYY to much EGO... the fact that he is still begging weight from people who have taken lessons seems to be lost on him..

he has no desire to be the best .. hell he has no desire to even be pretty good.....

and even IF he had top flight skill... he'd hide it in a attempt to make a buck or two..

he's no pro... he's just a chump hustler who loses on purpose to scare up a game later..

some here respect that.. as for me ... I kinda feel sorry for him...

I'm not a CTE guy.. I'm just a pool player..

the difference between him and I is I TRY to win ALL the time..

he just tries to win when it's convenient. and only if there is a profit in it..

poor bastard...

Chris came into this thread to find out what CTE is all about. He attacked nobody and was very polite. Out of nowhere, you go nuts on him. What the hell has Chris done to you?

Those who know Chris, all know he's nothing but a nice guy and also one hell of a player. You might find 15 US players that will beat him even, but I don't know about 20. Thats pretty strong.

Chris' hustling days are over. He will match up for cash or play in tournaments, but he's not hiding, ducking or dumping anything. There are a lot of trash players out there who will dump anyone for a dollar, not Chris. He plays on the square and plays with all his heart to win and get the cash.

Sounds like you have a personal vendetta against him, and thats fine, I just can't figure out how???
 
you never hustled me.. I don't fall for wigger BS

and I don't give weight..to anyone

so you moved on to easier prey..

I still feel sorry for you..

This is even more out of line. Mods, someone needs a time out, they cant seem to play well with others.
 
Randy,

If you have a description of CTE which you feel is more appropriate or more accurate, please post it or send it to me and I will put it on the resource page.

Also, what do you think is incorrect about the two Hal Houle versions that are posted? I would be happy to make corrections if they generally accepted as valid.

Regards,
Dave



Hi Dave

Pool School does have their version of CTE (SAME AIM). Right now it is proprietary just for our students. No bridge length, no bridge pivots, just simple CTE ball pocketing techniques. When Stan releases his DVD then things will probably change.

I don't recognize all of that from Hal. Where did you get it?

I want to know why under ghost ball you do not mentioned the arrow and its value. Babe Cranfield is not as good enough as Hal Houle in aiming systems?

You got voodoo aiming systems but not the one thing that truely helps in learning ghost ball and will work in all conditions.

Also, how would anyone know the CTE aiming is wrong if know one speaks up and syas whats wrong with it.

When it all comes down to it, every aiming system is based on ghost ball or the idea that there is only one spot on the table to make a ball go center pocket.

Why waste time on systems that just added requirements that aren't needed. After a long time playing, you'll just ended up using GB anyway.

You'll get to the point and just see where the ball needs to be and that GB's. You may have used various systems to get there, but seeing GB is where you will end up


Oh, there is no such thing as a 1/2 ball hit. The area of contact between the two balls is always the same size regardless of cut angle.

A good example of how what you see is not always what it seems.

I may be wrong duckie but I believe the term 1/2 ball hit refers to the estimated location on the object ball that the contact point of the cue ball is hitting, not that you are hitting half of the ball.
