Bergman: A Woodward: A+ (Except on the kicks) Van Boening: B Deuel: B (Dogged it his last match) Dechaine:B- (But looking much better than previous years)

Very good attitude. You have to learn to lose before you can win. One time when I was in college I played a big set and lost and it was about 90% of the money I had at the time (College right:thumbup:). I only played because I thought I had the big old nuts but I took it for granted and had to...

Probably one pocket. I'm from Pennsylvania which still a big one pocket state. Not because one pocket is my favorite game but because those older guys bet the most :thumbup:

If my opponent is shooting right at me I typically stand up and move to the side a little just to be polite. However, if they are already down on the shot when I realize ill just stay still while they shoot.

For me the lights just help illuminate the edges of the balls. It depends mostly on your vision.

haha I do this at work all the time too. Really try and raise that thumb in the air. I also curl my pointer finger up, don't worry about resting that on the table.You need space to accelerate the cue through. You could always take your hand off the table and make your bridge near your side but...

No pre-cat and uni-loc

Amen......

Which is why literally the first words in my original post said, "He may not be a top 10 player, but......." I was just sharing my thoughts buddy.

I have a 1st generation 314 if anyone wants to buy it.

Yea these shots are very tricky. When the OB is in the pocket like that you have to hit it square or actually on the side that's away from the pocket to avoid it spinning in for the scratch. If you cant do this without hitting the OB very thin off the rail and sending the CB flying, sometimes...

If Larry is on his game he could beat anyone in the country. He is a little too inconsistent which is why he never reached the top but I've seen him in gear and other than guys like Earl Strickland, Nobody can reach a gear like Larry.

Don't use the ghost ball or any aiming system for that matter. All the ghost ball is is a way to teach beginners about the basic concepts of pocketing balls. You should be able to look at the object ball and pocket and instinctively know where the cue ball needs to go. Aiming systems are a...

1. Tight banks near you opponents pocket when you have to avoid the double kiss. 2. Full table bank to be able to attack the balls that are up table. 3. 3-railer to be able to go on the offensive when your opponent does not have balls near their pocket but has left you below or near the stack.

He may not be top 10, but one player who's game has always amazed me is Larry Nevel.
