8-ball, Do I rake the balls after the break if he has an open table?

It's early in the set, your opponent has broken, made a ball, and the table is wide open.

Do you immediately rake the balls so that he can't get in stroke, and so you don't have to be on ice so long?

This is a total punk move, typical no class BS. Just sit there and wait you turn like a man If you have to resort to moves then don't play and make out game look any worse then it already does.

IF you not a kid you need to GROW THE F UP and stop listening to the idiots that are putting this crap in your head. Just shoot went it's your turn sit when it's your opponents turn.
 
If you need that kind of strategy in 8 ball your defiantly not a player lol its best you watch the player run out and learn dude. Dont be raking the rack lol ... im just saying :grin-square:

But I guess you wouldn't call these guys players under your definition.

Even though i know you never witnessed this happen with these names you posted . Do you actually think they did this as a "strategy" or because they got pissed off they didn't make a ball or something? You think earl or keith would do that, c'mon man lol the only way i could see this happening if the hustle was on and they were setting someone up. lol

Jesus please quit with the dumbass questions.

If I robbed a bank and didn't get any money should I go to jail?

If I fart and it doesn't stink should I tell someone I farted?

When will it end?

Either you really like attention or someone should have to remind you to breathe.

If there was a person laying on the ground and I walked up to him and shot him but didn't know he was already dead, could I be charged with murder.

Or should I just grab my balls like Michael Jackson and not call a foul.

How can you rob a bank and you don't get any money. You should have said, "if I attempted to rob a bank, but didn't get any money."

Could I go to jail or would the bank teller just get a ball in hand?


Most people here find my posts very informative, and many have actually been learning the game by reading my threads! Could I have provided anything more to the forum than that?

Pretty much 100% to a Tee a statement that PP made one day before he got the Ban Hammer.

This is classic Pocket Point.

Your level of rudeness and obnoxiousness to others on this forum, don't you think that is a worse crime than discussing 8-ball strategy?

To others? No, just you.

Tell ya what. Stop being such an idiot, and I'll stop being so rude.

I don't see the correlation to any of my threads. Do you wish to restate? What do you not understand about the strategic nature of my threads?
 
What do you not understand about the strategic nature of my threads?

I would say that the 'strategic' nature of your threads is unacceptable behavior to 'most' that take the game serious & have a respect for the game, good sportsmanship, & their own 'playing' ability.

I would say you are what 'most' would consider to be a banger.

Instead of trying to 'teach' what most serious players would consider to be inappropriate, perhaps you should be trying to learn from the vast experience of those available to you here on AZB.

You have never answered the question as to how old are you. If you are very young, then perhaps you could be excused a bit, but if not then I would say you are a part of what gives this game a bad reputation in the eyes of the general public.

I would say that that would mean that 'most' that love this game would not want you & your tactics associated with the game. I dare say 'most' would rather you quit trying to play pool & go play something else, maybe poker, darts or horse shoes.

I do not mean to be offensive. I am merely trying to point out to you that you are the cause of your problems by trying to buck a society where 'most' do not appreciate you telling them that your different way is more correct than the more commonly accepted way of that said society.

Sincerely & with Best Wishes,
 
I don't rake the table but after every successful shot from my opponent, I take off a piece of clothing... :wub: and I go commando. :lovies:
