    Playing better players

    This is from an old thread where we were discussing this: http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?p=1784872&highlight=wild#post1784872 ----- This is correct. WILD BALLS A wild ball is just like the 9 ball. If that ball is pocketed legally, by hitting the lowest number first, that game...

    Playing better players

    I agree that this is a whole lot better than playing someone that cant play at all. I do the same thing. I have a friend that loves cheap action, but I have to give him a ton of weight. (7+last4 in 10b) But when you play better players, you have the added bonus of watching them play, and being...

    What Would You Damn Do Here?

    short-shelf-GC-basketball hoops? It would be tough for me not to shoot at this ball.

    What Would You Damn Do Here?

    Im cutting this ball in every time. There are about 500 ways to sell out on this shot trying to play a safe, and the table is wide open. You will have a shot on the three should you make the ball... The added bonus, is unless you jaw this shot, the odds are that you will leave, at the very...

    Judging your speed

    This..... I pretty much stopped playing regularly at my old pool hall because I became the big fish in a small pond. A banger among bangers, so to speak. Not to say I dont play pretty solid, but in the greater scheme of things, I suck :thumbup: Continue to raise the bar. Thats how progress is...

    enough with the cut break already!

    I'm going to break however it takes to consistently make a ball, and have a reasonable chance to have a shot on the one. These guys play pool for a living, so they know better than I do. :-)

    Strategies for beating a pro in 9-ball

    1. Break Better 2. Break Better 3. Break Better 4. No unforced errors 5. Break Better. With my, now numerous, ass whoopings from Mr. Mills, one of my biggest issues is making a ball on the break and having a shot on the 1. You have to maintain control of the table. A pro is going to...

    9ball ghost

    I do something similar to this, but I play 3 ahead sets with the ghost. If i get up 3, I add a ball, and start over. And vise versa for the ghost. This was im not changing the number of balls every game, and a couple bad rolls on the break doesn't force you to move down in the difficulty.

    Played an APA 2 in league tonight and......

    When you're a 9 playing a 7 (who is more than capable of running out simple patterns) and you get hooked so bad you cannot hit the 1 ball, it really sucks. The 7 may put 20 points on you. Then its a 75 to 35 race against someone who is capable of running out. Its total BS, and one of the man...

    Pro Pool on TV -- Making it Watchable

    No doubt he is a hell of a player.... Maybe its just because I know how to play the game, his preemptive shot by shot comments drive me nuts... "Hes gonna shoot this with top left... hes gonna do this.... hes gonna do that.." Maybe that approach is better for the pool layman.
