    Fedor Mosconi cup

    Although I don't know how Fedor actually feels about Putin, Russia, and the politics of this invasion, it would seem that the US is as close to an "adopted" home as one could hope to find. what I mean is, he seems to have a strong support system based in the States, and he was able to survive...

    Fix 9 Ball Break Shot/Answer

    I always though the "fix" to 9 ball is to play 8 ball... maybe with the continued rise in popularity of chinese and english 8-ball, good ol' American 8 ball will get the respect it deserves. ;)(y)

    SVB featured on 60 min (dropped 10 hrs ago)

    Ok. That makes more sense. It's just most of these type threads only reference gambling. Mea Culpa. My buddy has one of these Hustlin shirts. My little girl thought it meant to hustle, like I yell to her when playing softball. I never corrected her. :p I don't remember mentioning golf, but...

    Anyone ever take a lesson from Tor Lowry?

    What kind of measurable improvement did you see? Have you continued to improve or at least maintain over the last 9 years.

    SVB featured on 60 min (dropped 10 hrs ago)

    I just fail to understand why the gambling aspect of pool is still looked down upon. As has previously been noted, FanDuel, DraftKings, BetMGM, and possibly others run commercials on ESPN continuously. There is even an "official" sportsbook of the NFL. Boxing is a huge sport with billions of...

    Anyone ever take a lesson from Tor Lowry?

    Thanks for the review. I am guilty of having watched all of his video content, and was even a patreon on his sight a few years ago. I interacted with him a few times online, but never took the time to print out any of his material. I remember him saying that he recommends to stop playing...

    Justin Bergman ?

    Agreed, not speaking for JAM, but my disdain for flying is all the headaches that go with it, from airport shuttles to baggage, security, cramped seating, weird smells, lost luggage, and on and on. plus, I hate being at the mercy of an airline.

    Fedor Vs Tony 1 pkt

    I agree that SVB can't out shoot Fedor, Filler, FSR, and a few others. I think he stands a much better chance with winner breaks from anywhere and one on the spot, but it doesn't seem he has totally figured out the MR break rules. While he hasn't gotten the tourney wins in recent years, it...

    Let's talk Fargo

    that's what I was attempting to convey with my Tiger analogy...you were much more eloquent, I think. I agree wholeheartedly.

    One thing Color of Money got right

    Had a former student who was sponsored by a computer mouse company....he made 2500 a month for livestreaming his team playing csgo a certain number of hours each month. They would play tourneys with 6 figure prizes a few times a year. Kid was 14 years old.

    Let's talk Fargo

    Good post. Yes look at golf since Tigers downfall. Great, great players, but it seems like it is a different winner each major. Sure Rory, or spieth, or Justin Thomas might get hot and win a few tourneys in a season, but nothing like Tiger. For well over a decade, he was the favorite in any...

    Let's talk Fargo

    This is what has made the last year for FSR so amazing, IMO. I would imagine that years like that will be few and far between..just too many monsters out there...

    Fedor Vs Tony 1 pkt

    I will also add: I think it is hilarious that after a year in the State, it seems young Fedor is turning into the traditional American pool shark/gambler

    Fedor Vs Tony 1 pkt

    I don't know that SVB has ever ducked anyone. For sure, he gets the matchup that he wants most, if not all, of the time or he won't play. Maybe that is a form of ducking? Rack rules, break rules, etc. I have seen many posts from him over the years inviting anyone to come and he would" bet his...

    Open- or closed-bridge hand and gloves?

    This makes sense. I see a lot of people go from having a relaxed grip to a death grip on power shots...Thanks for the reply. Thanks.

    Open- or closed-bridge hand and gloves?

    So if the cue tends to "hop" out of an open bridge on power shots, is elbow drop the most likely culprit?

    Open- or closed-bridge hand and gloves?

    I'm 6'4" and built like an out-of- shape offensive tackle. I have tried several different stances to get my chin just above the cue like the pros do. Last time I just bout pulled a hernia trying to get that low...it feels like torture yoga. My natural stance has my chin between 6-8 inches above...
