    Take all of the weight out of your break cue

    “it’s all in the hips, it’s all in the hips” (Sure there’s a funnier Happy Gilmore quote I could have used, but it’s 6am and no coffee yet 😂)

    Take all of the weight out of your break cue

    Bob, some great information shared there. I am still yet to measure anything, as work is busy, the local is hosting a great event, and when I do have time to practice I’m occupied. I must say that I feel like I am breaking better since removing the weight, but again that’s ‘feel’ and it’s not...

    Yuan8 open match update

    Just went to support a few friends briefly last night. Set-up is awesome, just like last year. Can get a few pics next time I go, but won’t pop in again til finals. Here’s the current match list. Original image was hard to upload, so hope it is readable.

    Why do pool players need so much time?

    Playing at another hall after work while yuan8 open is on, couldn’t get time off to participate, so getting sometime in at another friends hall, then stopping by each day to support friends. Even with a shot clock on every table, some players feel like they stop time 😂 Interestingly, as an...

    Take all of the weight out of your break cue

    Takes all sorts to make a planet. I exercise a lot of patience in my day job, when I update my CV, I can add ‘patience’ to my transferable skills 😂 Thanks bud, glad to provide something useful or interesting here. In my AZB experience so far, for every negative poster, there’s an abundance of...

    High point 9ball, no break box, 3point rule, advice wanted

    Those minor adjustments, and the speed they make them, are what separates us from them. Got a fun few days lined up :D

    High point 9ball, no break box, 3point rule, advice wanted

    I hope I have time to do so. I would love to do more reporting on the pool scene here. The halls, the equipment preferences, and of course the tournaments! Glad to hear it's interesting. The organization of the tournament is great, the format and how the tournaments is paced is incredibly tough...

    My break from the box is solid. It often does not satisfy the three point rule. Even moving the cueball wider. I will work a bit more on this later.

    High point 9ball, no break box, 3point rule, advice wanted

    Yes, every table has a camera at this hall (which is pretty cool!), and I do spend a little time observing certain aspects. Thank you for the suggestions. I aim to spend a couple hours getting things right this evening. For rail breaking, when I hit it fuller, I am not getting the results I am...

    Take all of the weight out of your break cue

    Have substantiated many times, to many forum members (Even met a few in the real world, where you can touch grass - highly recommend it). Not that anyone needs to substantiate anything on an online forum. Certainly won't to rude keyboard warriors. Grow up, or ask around. Take your pick...

    If you count experience as a waste of time, then to you it is a waste of time... Last year I won a couple games at least, be more than happy to win even one more. More about how I play, and how I feel. Also meeting people and enjoying the game.

    No, it's because you're literally a negative jerk lol

    High point 9ball, no break box, 3point rule, advice wanted

    Literally an "open" event... Is that another simple word with a definition you don't understand? I've played many pros, and high level players, doesn't mean I am one. Instead of being a negative troll, you could spend the time learning to play yourself... Don't expect any reply from me again...

    Take all of the weight out of your break cue

    I think we all could, but the marketing team at every cue brand says "no, don't do that" 😂

    New TP glove

    I have quite long fingers, and this is bunched up slightly :) I don't cut them. Quite satisfied with the performance! Many stores on Taobao have them, but that's obviously no good for overseas buyers, let me ask RE: international sale

    High point 9ball, no break box, 3point rule, advice wanted

    Yup, no break box though. Haven't played this format for almost a year, and the frustration is neither break that has been successful in the past is working so well now that I am back practicing this format. I put a bit of time in yesterday, if I am making the one when breaking from the...

    I'm nowhere near pro level. Sounds peculiar to be such a negative person, but you're quite consistent. Still pretty sure you are great fun to be around...

    Take all of the weight out of your break cue

    Shaun Murphy is the first I know to take snooker cues which he chooses based on conditions. Wouldn't surprise me if this gets swallowed by the marketing and branding teams of pool companies soon.
