I have the DVD and I first watched it a long time ago. In my honest opinion the 8 ball portion is ok but the 9 ball portion is invaluable. Since adding that knowledge to my game I give up less 9 ball breaks and have dramatically improved my balls on the break percentage. I strongly believe that...

Perhaps no one was watching the action this year? Hello? John Morra?

The next shot for the incoming player is simple. Take BIH and place the CB in a line with the combo and simply hit the balls hard enough for some separation and freeze the CB to the rail under your stripe ball taking the one rail escape out of play as well as not allowing the incoming player the...

What really slays me are those pool/poker players that bawk when you ask for some 20-50 sets and they say they won't play for that much money, yet the same person drops 400-1k at a poker table. I don't get it. Televised poker has really hurt my side business. :(

Bump for a nice cue.

I don't make excuses...they are concrete observations. ;) There Snorks, I saw the thread. Thanks. :rolleyes:

If you are playing John let me know, I have $500 on John. If you are playing Erik let me know, I have $500 on Erik. Perhaps you should just sell your house and come to Toronto for a week. I would be pleased to introduce you to more players you have never heard of. For the record, Alex Pagulayan...

Must be easier action in Detroit I guess?;)

Don't forget Detroit, Ronnie Wiseman is OURS! ;) If I were sending a 3 person team from TO I would probably go with John Morra, Jason Klatt, and Ronnie Wiseman with Erik Horleifson as the alternate. Oh yeah, and me.....I'm the water boy.

No problem Les. Use it all you like! I really get a kick out of certain personality types. You know the ones....they beat up on F class players regularly and then they think they are top of the world. I used to enjoy showing them humility...now I realize I am out numbered and there aren't...

I think this is a funny thread. I have gotten to the point in my game where I want to PLAY. I do not want to play against players that have no prayer in beating me. There is no challenge to it and most of the time they want to play for beer. I can buy my own. Here is my funny story: I am at...

No so much a breathing technique, but when I am under the gun and need to relax I simply place my tongue on the roof of my mouth and focus on breathing through my nose. I learned that a while ago and I find it helps relax my breathing and thus my stroke.

I have had little experience with Longoni, however, I was recently speaking with Tyler Edey who has recently picked up Longoni as a sponsor. He was very happy with the hit and balance but did say it would be an adjustment going from a Predator shaft to a Longoni. He did say he was quite...

Place the OB on the spot and set the CB up straight into the bottom corner about 12" out. Make the OB with a draw stroke and draw the CB back onto your tip, This will force you to stay down and follow straight through the shot. Once this is easy put the OB in the middle of the table and start...

Ok. I am a VNEA player, or have been. I have listened to these APA threads and I don't get it. What is the break and run out percentages for those types of players? If I know that perhaps I can better see what the guage for myself and other of the local players would be.

I only got to play a few dozen frames on a 10' but in my opinion it was HARDER to run big runs. As soon as you play the break my beloved black ball would disappear into a sea of reds never to be seen again and the pink was usually no where happy. I just found there to be no room if you tried to...

In speaking to an aquaintance of mine Ronnie Wiseman he says the good action is in Detroit.

My buddy CheezDawg has two cues done by Ryan at Ratcues. Check out his signature. Beauties.

Nice work kid. Now stay outta my pond! Those fish are mine!:D

I respect what you are thinking. The only reason I wouldn't change the format I use for the ghost is simple, a strong player rarely gives up ball in hand without first creating an advantage that would return them to the table. If I cannot hit the OB and control the outcome, at least moderately...
