pool being one of the only games in the world where you may not get the chance to compete because of a runout makes it nearly impossible to handicap for a fair game. Of course you can handicap it and play bowlliards or modify the game so there are equal innings at the table, but the way the game...

3 ball is a fun game too, and even faster!

well, if it's any consolation...I'm 31 now! I can only hope I look half as good as you by the time I'm 64.

magic is in the details

Scott, traveling and working together is a good way to start to hate each other. I wouldn't be surprised if the Legends & Champions tour was what solidified the animosity.

Watching a guy run 7 or 8 racks isn't as exciting as you make it sound, it's monotonous and looks simple and boring to the average player. I think the majority of people would agree that watching Shane and Earl playing and knowing they could miss at any moment made the tension and excitement...

Very cool!! Your rolls and chair ideas were epic. I loved the blindfold and hat being thrown down at the end also. You should make a video with all your shots being done like you were a samurai warrior, kicks and flips and twirling cues. You've got a bunch of them already, just compile them...

I've seen beginners who have only been playing for a year but have a gift when it comes to coordination who play better than most guys who have been playing for 10 years. If you're answering this question for students new to the game though the last thing I would tell them is the blunt truth...

wait......what......he's taking her to the movies......but he's in the poolhall.....I don't get it, what's the punchline?....is it that he thinks the sheep is his wife and we know that the poolhall owner meant for him to leave it at the zoo but the funny part is that the guy thinks the sheep is...

Instead of getting lazy or goofy with your stroke to lay down, or not concentrating as hard or whatever is done to play below your true speed that seems to mess up your game do everything you would do when your playing your A game, just focus to rattle the pocket or overcut the shot. There's no...

taking a break works. punishment works even better. A recent example that I used was announcing to everyone at the tournament that if I didn't win I wasn't going to eat until I won another tournament. I had to fast for a couple days, but it got me really focused on winning. Or promise to buy...

I've tried using that betting method to put pressure on my practice routines and when the losing fee is buying my wife something she always seems to be there sharking me! haha...guess I'll have to keep it a secret until after i'm done.

Sean, great idea. I'm going to do my drills and practice before I go to bed from now on instead of early. Not sure if I'll be able to make it to any big tournaments soon, but we'll see! Thanks!

actually yeah. I was living in the bay area in california. i was about 16 years old and everyone knew how to match up with each other at the pool hall I hung out at and a couple pros in the area were good one-handed players. one-pocket was the game of choice. I tried it out and found I had a...

It doesn't really matter what shots or drills you set up for shotmaking improvement, pick any shot that is giving you trouble. What people fail to realize is that the same shot has to be practiced for an extended time. If you set up a shot and shoot it 10 times and then set up another and keep...

that shot is one of the hardest, I both love it and hate it. My friends and I set it up corner to corner with the cueball about a diamond and a half out and the OB in the center, first time I set it up I couldn't follow the cueball in for about 25 tries. you have to have some crazy amount of...

I was told to stop playing games of pool with opponents completely and only shoot this drill while working on correcting about ten fundamental errors. (elbow moving, shoulder moving, head raising, moving grip hand back...etc) I stopped playing my friends and gambling and did nothing but this...

My wife and I were playing in a tournament when she went into labor with our son, Max. Here's the first picture of him from the hospital, we didn't realize until later what he had done in the picture, he looks like he was born to play pool. (check out his bridge) sorry for the size, can't...

you just aint rite

I like sending my cueball about two feet into the air on my opening breakshot, it gets the cueball out of the path of possible collisions and it sends a message to people that you're crazy, probably a banger who doesn't know how to play 14.1 and then after I spill a pile of hundreds onto the...
