    Any videos of Dr Dave in an actual match?

    I think Dr.dave is a good analyst and all the videos i ve seen, have structure and are very much on the point. Does he need to prove anything? He never claimed he is one of the best players.

    Chezka Centeno

    Great finals. Chezka is a fantastic player, but she hasnt made a leap forward in her game, still a bit on romantic side. Yasmin of course is a champion player.

    power draw?

    It was meant as an aswer to billiards_watch. But straightline, you are right. Loose grip, with thumb and index arround the cue, the middle one is to cradle. I like to experiment to a point if i see a point. In this case, the wrist is preloaded like a spring, and released into action at the...

    power draw?

    You missed the point. Its about preloading your wrist and releasing it. I want to understand and learn the technique. It also gives me better accuracy.

    power draw?

    Howdy Been thinking about power draw lately (still learning). Its like when you play ping pong, and you want to give extra spin to the ball, you always flick your wrist to increase the rotation. I tried a few shots and on my very slow table, i got some good results. My table is so slow, when...

    Impossible shot?

    Very, very nice shot. Is this shot legal according to the wpa rules, can it be used in a tournament play? I read somewhere, that shot is legal when cue tip hits the cue ball with forward motion, i see only vertical movement.

    Run this layout

    Its not so easy as it looks, i tried like this: 1 right, whitey rolls just past the 5 for low position on 2, goes in the same pocket, going on 3ball. I missed the position like half of the times, getting in position for 4ball from back rail, five to six from backrail, six out. Made it 2 times...

    Run this layout

    Missed it, 4 in the opposite of 5. Then i would stay a bit high on 2, go 3 rails inside on the 3, top it from the rail behind 4, screw back to five, with a pass in the six. If your table.is slow, you need more angle i would think. Go low on 2 and 1rail pass to 3, to miss the middle pocket, i...

    Run this layout

    Depends on the shape for red ball, might go behind the 4, to shoot for the long corner and forward to the 5 on the rail?

    Heyball big money tourney

    I think heyball is a great "upgrade" of 8ball, and i find it very interesting. Its a bit on the slow side, but some can shoot really good.
