    Just look at his user on youtube, he posted it there, so it's not hard to find.

    Outside english on cut shots...

    Well. The poll is kind of not set up right, because if the shot calls for inside english for position then that's what is needed, but it's not an option. Now, if the poll was say, if you're shooting the 9-ball and it's a cut shot, would you put outside english on it, and i would say yes 100% of...

    CTE Aiming Systems - Fact or Fiction?

    Ok. Maybe i shouldn't have said it the way I did. I should have said it's hard for me to believe that somebody could just pocket any ball using that system. So i looked a little online to find some videos, and i was looking for shots where sidespin is used. In reality almost every shot has some...

    CTE Aiming Systems - Fact or Fiction?

    I would say that it is a fact that CTE is an aiming system. I would say it is fiction that by using CTE you can just go up and pocket any ball. If this were true nobody would ever miss. It has been proven that lining up with this system on certain angle shots would not go. The people that say...

    Higgins Third Installment - Tried To Bet Against Himself

    I'm just wondering, is there a rule in European snooker pro tour that says you aren't allowed to bet? I'm just wondering. I know in our pro sports it's one of the rules that you aren't allowed to. If it is a rule that there is no betting allowed then sure he should be banned since its a rule...

    Higgins Third Installment - Tried To Bet Against Himself

    Well, from reading that article 1st place was like 250k and 2nd was 125k. Then he tried to call in a bet when he was way ahead of the match. It said something like he would just bet small like 1k, the odds would be phenomenal since he was way ahead. This way he only risks 1k to potentially...

    Strategy Vs Sharking

    Softshot, you nailed it perfect on the head.. Anybody who says they were "sharked" and missed because a guy moved or talked or flinched, that's the ultimate excuse so they don't have to take responsibility for missing. If the guy threw something at you while you were shooting, that's one thing...

    Strategy Vs Sharking

    ....and this is why the 30 second shot clock in the Mosconi cup is so great. It's the best part of the entire tournament and the reason it's watchable.

    I was gambling, he unscrewed with 4 balls left, I raked 'em

    There's no way you could assume he's conceding the game. He could easily just be changing shafts or putting his stick away because hes playing bad with it and using another stick or even a house stick (I've seen guys that are frustrated from missing put away their sticks and use house sticks)...

    That guy is right. The stream sucks and the banner on top is annoying. Do yourselves a favor and buy the stream from omnisport.

    The fromsport link works, but the resolution is so bad. I bought the Omnisport stream yesterday and it looked so good.

    Gandy Pool tables any good?

    When I started playing pool when i was about 16 the pool hall had Gandy Big G's. At the time i had never played on a 9' table before only little bar tables, and i thought they were great. It wasn't until a few years later when i finally played on a GCIII and i realized the Gandy was a piece of...

    *** Official Mosconi Cup 2009 Thread ***

    It appears Mike and Thorsten have been having a lot of trouble with the speed of the table. Both of them have been long on practically every shot, in all their matches. The tables must be super-fast for them.

    What good's winning without bragging?

    Well, it's great you beat him and all but you can't really brag about beating a guy in a race to 5. You ever go to bar with friends and everybody you go with is bragging about you to everybody "this guy is the best at pool... blah blah" and you hate it but you cant stop it. Then some local drunk...

    *** Official Mosconi Cup 2009 Thread ***

    The shot clock is good. I hate to see it beeping on a guy when hes about to shoot, but at least they don't take 5 minutes per shot and it gets so boring to watch certain players.

    *** Official Mosconi Cup 2009 Thread ***

    The shot that Oscar missed on the 2 is why I'm so scared of him on the team. I don't think he is ready for the pressure yet, and can he put that shot out of his mind.

    Aiming Is Really Simple

    Taking everything you said into consideration about, the twist, resistance, collision, throw, this is why it just comes down to feel. You just know where to hit the ball when you shoot it with what spin, speed, or whatever else you are doing after years of shooting the shots over and over. All...

    Aiming Is Really Simple

    The thing that I find hard to believe, is how many threads there are and people replying about "aiming." Maybe its just me, but I just get down on the shot and know where to hit it. I'm all for reading all the great discussion about it, but it just seems crazy how much people get into the aiming...
