    congrats shane on the win

    Indeed! An amazing performance. I haven't seen anyone break and run out the table that good in quite a while. One of the greatest in the game no doubt!

    Us Open Updates....

    Appleton 11 Archer 7 Great tournament by Johnny...he and SVB are the two most highly ranked Americans of the Open. After this performance I don't think Matchroom won't choose JA to play for the American team. To be honest I didn't think Archer could have beaten Appleton. Not with Daz's...

    Us Open Updates....

    Chang just won 11-9 over Shaw. After the match I could hear Shaw saying "This guy can play." And he really can! Great game.

    Us Open Updates....

    Yeah me too. Imagine if Earl and Johnny go deep in the tournament. They might both earn a wildcard pick for the Mosconi Cup! Johnny's match with Shuff had a Mosconi Cup "flavor" as they are both candidates for the team. And Johnny devastated the young gun with his break and good shooting...

    LEE BRETT, WOW! Big Upset.

    Didn't Immonen win the US Open very deep from the loser's bracket a few years back? Or so I've heard. Anyway, congrats Lee! "Those who can, do; those who can't, teach" (and those who can't teach, manage) You just made the above statement look stupid :cool:

    Team Canada vs Team USA

    This is an awesome production. I see a lot of future in it. Some remarks: When the camera view changes, and you can see the player shooting towards the pocket, most of the time the pocket is blocked by the scores which are displayed in the bottom of the screen. For example, when Rodney shot a...

    Timing

    That's an awesome example. Explains well, why your stroke should be a fluid uniform motion and not a quick jerky one.

    Bonus Ball

    I live across the pond and still buy the PPV to watch the Open live from 1am till 7am. :wink: I really hope Bonus Ball makes it. It seems pretty neat. The promo video looks something a casual American sports fan might watch.

    What About this Guy For the Coach of Team USA?

    I voted 3 all the way :joyful: Slightly off-topic, I just read on wikipedia that Mark Wilson has played a couple of times for the US in the mosconi cup. Anyone got any vids of him playing?

    3 rail position help

    You are using a combination of topsin and inside english. If you use less topspin, the CB will tend to follow a line closer to the tangent line, so it will come off the rail with a less sharp angle. In this shot, if you hit the end rail closer to the pocket with the CB, (which you will...

    To Matchroom Sport Charlie Williams brings the Mosconi Cup down

    I thought last year someone mentioned that CW would stay more than 2 years as captain. Regardless the captain choice, I seriously hope JA makes it as a player. He has been the most solid all around US player the last 4 years of the cup without being the MVP. His experience is worth just as a...

    Improving focus, concentration, and mental stamina.

    One "trigger" I use is getting up from my stance only after I hear the sound of the OB hitting the back of the pocket . The Inner Game of Tennis suggests that a tennis player should focus on the tennis ball seams to help him concentrate. I do something similar. After the OB is pocketed, I get up...

    I think it is a very good effort. The streamed event seems like something ESPN could air live.

    Pool vs What Really matters in life?

    You are at the next level when you refuse sex to go play pool. The next level is calling in sick to your job so you can play pool. The next is quitting your job altogether so you can play pool. Now you are unemployed. But you can play pool as long as you want (or until you die of starvation :p).
