I am wanting to learn one pocket to play some sets and tournaments. I know the rules but struggle with the strategy. Whats some of the best youtube matches to watch to get familiar with mediocre/high strategy?
 
 
There are many great one pocket videos out there.
My favorite is Power 1pocket by Scott Frost another great instructional dvd series is Cliff Joyner's one pocket moves and strategies. The absolute best learning tool(besides playing) is the famous "Winning Onepocket" more info in that one book than all the others combined
 
The best "ACCU STATS" video out there is one of Scott Frost playing Efren race to 5for 4k. After Scott wins that set, he and Mark Wilson do a voice over commentary and Frost explains and walks you through the whole thing,game by game,shot by shot. Lots of great info by a great player.
 
TAR 34 Efren vs SVB's 1-P match. or just any efren 1-pocket match.

Shannon Dalton's moves in one pocket are great, i did not say Efren, because Efren's thinking is different because his potting, banking skills makes him think different than normal people. Search Dalton on youtube.
 
 
I bought a lot of dvds and listened to the commentary, Grady, Cardone, many other guys are good also, that is the way I learned what to do. Good luck, Tom

Indeed.

To the OP, try to find some local guys (usually older) and ask them to play some 1P for fun or cheap and ask questions to them. That's how I learned how to play 1P within 2-3 months.

I used to get together with some of the older fellows and play doubles one pocket and rotate teams every game. It became very fun and it was a really great learning experience.
