I like this idea as I’m always looking for a way to get at least one to my side after the break but I’m pretty sure the 4 would go right into that 13. Half the pictures say it will, the other half it looks like it clears the 13 np.

Lol sorry, I have four pictures but this was the only one that wasn’t ‘too large’ I thought about the 14 but I was worried about selling out the 6 if the cb wasn’t just so.

I wasn’t sure what to do with this break yesterday. I ended up going 4 rails. The first time I came in just a bit short and nudged that 13 into a beautiful starter for my enemy. I set it up a few times until I could get back in that corner. Is there a simpler move that I’m just not seeing?

He should’ve could’ve would’ve had it though (probably) with that nice break on the hill. That 3 point rule is atrocious IMAEORPP’SHO of course

I tried that a while back after watching Corey Deuel for a while. I never did get comfortable with it. With an open bridge I pretty much grip the table with my last three fingers and get the solid feel but that may just be unnecessary tension. I use a pool version of a snooker stance I guess...

😂😂😂 There are upper people and downer people. Each gets energy and euphoria from their respective types of drugas. Give a downer person a powerful stimulant and they get edgy, shaky, weirded out, and paranoid. Not conducive to playing a game of finesse. I like the Guinness speed pool format a...

I love speed pool. This thread made me wish for some new matches, found a Filipino showdown

Thats kinda what I do as well. Find the spot I’m aiming at on the obj ball and I picture that’s where my tip is trying to get to, but don’t lunge or steer the tip toward it, just shoot through to that spot. When I actively remember to do that and focus on it I hit the ball real well and almost...

(Launches attack on Bigkat’s sanity, pool IQ, political affiliations, emoji usage, enthusiasm, and lack of doctorates in microbiology and particle physics) I set up both shots and they are high percentage hangers. My deepest apologies Mr. Kat for my uncouth attacks on your personage.

308 - a new high run for the kid from SD. His first showing was a success. Hopefully he demolishes his new high run next time round

Enjoy your chip butty while I enjoy the MC and team ‘Murcia

Ha! I checked this site when I got home and was probably the first person to open this thread. I love old pictures of people. This is a good one. Is that a marine uniform?

Is that a young rifleman?

I feel like it really is just a numbers lottery once you’re talking about players who can consistently run 100-150 balls. I guess there is a determination/focus factor that maybe some don’t have so they have a ceiling of 150 or whatever but being able to run that many (to me) means you can run...

This is how I naturally think about it as well. Whenever I watch matches though I hear the commentators (often good 1P players) saying not to do anything remotely crazy or risky if you only need one ball I wouldn’t know how it plays out because I always go for that 8th ball 🤣 I guess it still...

“Any meatball can throw a run of 100 at me” I guess I’m not even at “meatball” level yet. I could throw a solid 32 at him on my best 14.1 day 😂

Found this thread while searching for a Filipino pool table to buy lol. I can’t fit a regular table in my house but maybe one of these smaller ones would work out and keep me in the right mindset

This is one of my favorite moves and a shot I practice a lot. Varying angles and amounts of inside to get it tucked up nice and protect me balls. In this case though it would leave all your balls open for him to mess up since you have the right side pocket...unless you got real lucky and rolled...

I’ve thought about the 7/9 thing a few times. I think in theory you could set conditions that would make someone’s Fargo rate inaccurate on a certain sized table. Like taking a guy who only ever has played on a 7’ and has only ever played others who have only played on a 7’, and they’ve all...

Me too. I’d like to see him and tony myself, regardless of anything else just to see how they’d do with that screaming crowd pressure. They both have an amazing coolness at the table that I admire.
