Question! Question for both players: Do any of you use (or have used) a stroke slip technique? That is, releasing the cue altogether upon impact, so that the grip hand slips right after the tip contacts the CB. If you use it, do you do it in certain types of shots? (because you don't in all of...

ofc=of course :D Simonis 760 and the pockets are like 4.5 or 4.6 inches I don't know. (they can juuuuust accept 2 balls) I don't understand how this is played. Can you explain a little more? Thanks for your replies guys. Gotta keep working hard now!

I think 35ish. But I practiced it for like a week and then gave up as I had to practice 9-ball for upcoming tournaments. Haven't played it for months. Watching good players play 14.1 helps a lot on pattern play. Also if a better player can do very high runs, practice 14.1 together. It is the...

Well I made two 3-packs on this particular set... (with BIH after the break. 9 on the spot and breaking from the box) I have made 3-packs with easier break formats without BIH on regular match-ups but I think that a six pack with the ghost sounds good. A 75+ break on 14.1 sounds even more...

Phew. It's late here and I really-really need to tell someone so here goes ^^ After a year and a half of buying my own cue and starting to practice hard I finally beat the ghost on 9-ball (on a 9-footer ofc) 9-8. ...my work here is done. Now I will take on knitting :p

Are you suggesting that production cues are better than custom cues? Because I have hit with custom LD shafts with custom butts and I have not yet found a mass produced cue that hits as good as a custom cue. I switched from the Predator 314-2 to a custom LD shaft and it has made my life easier.

Carter wins 13-12! One of the best snooker matches I have watched in my life. Period. Congrats on both

So I am not the only one who notices it right? It is there. That's a relief. (I am not crazy :p) I also don't understand the advantage of it. Any ideas?

Greetings AZB players I have been studying JA's and SVB's stroke/fundamentals for quite a while and I want to point out two details I have noticed on their stroke. (1)I noticed a detail on JA's stroke which puzzled me. In his practice strokes, he moves only his lower arm back and forth and...

the offer still stands

Greetings Although my stroke and aim are pretty good, (stroke straightness etc.) when I raise my cue off the rail everything falls apart. If the CB is close to the rail and I want to stun or -even worse- draw it, I will most certainly miss the shot by a mile even if it is a straight in. I...

RIP Grady!

Defensive 10-ball I have got another one, which combines offense and defense. I don't remember where I had read about it, but here goes. (do not mean to hijack, just sharing knowledge ;)) It is called defensive 10-ball. You make a rack of 10-ball, break, and you have to push right after you...

bump again

(DELETED) mistake

anyone interested?

Greetings Any suggestions on books for beginners on carom and 3-cushion? (currently playing mostly straight rail and one-cushion myself. I come from pool background) Except Robert Byrne's books. Any other ones?

0-0 (full time) (do i have to guess the extra time as well?)
