Intentionally moving balls without striking the cue ball should always be loss of game.

Bob Dinkleberry was about to run out the final rack, when he suddenly broke down his cue and quit! But the reason he did that is because of the move Rick Stixel pulled, which you are not gonna believe!

Oh man, you guys aren't gonna believe what Bob Dinkleberry just pulled! Unbelievable!

I heard that both Buddy and Efren didn't play all that well in their match at Red's. Efren had been up for days or something like that.

Bustamante returned the favor a few years later at the same tournament. I think he ran an 8 pack to win the set IIRC.

^I agree, Stalev is amazing to watch. I hope he is back to playing again.

Pei Wei Chang has a an even shorter stroke but he seems to be a bit more fluid. Fast forward to about 14 minutes in to see him play. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cG1f9STBpaA

I talked to him for about ten minutes during the BCAPL back in 2010 and he was completely coherent and respectful. He spoke very highly of Mika and a few other players. Watching this, it was like a drunk man's rant. He was completely different when I talked to him.

It's not a bold statement. Shane has the best break in the world.

My point the whole time is that it's not their cueing. They just don't get enough exposure. European pool seems to be run very well and the Europeans just naturally work very hard and become great from playing in big tournaments all the time. There is no set cueing "style" that is required to...

So whats your definition of good cueing? Why is it that the Filipinos, who have basically the opposite style of cueing as the Brits are some of the most feared players on the planet? And what about the guys from Taiwan? Some of those guys poke at the ball but they are even money against any...

That is utter nonsense. Look at the Filipino style of fundamentals. When Efren first came to the United States, the Americans just thought he was some guy named Cesar with a pump stroke. They didn't think he was anything special at first. The Filipinos have a loose and flowing style, something...

It definitely could be related to your stance. Or it could be that you are pulling your arm close to your body while you get down on the shot which throws your alignment off. I used to do that. If you can videotape yourself, record yourself from the back and front while shooting and pay close...

You might just be holding the cue too close to your body. This is an alignment problem IMO. Try adjusting the positions of how far your shooting hand is from your body. Be aware of what you are doing with your cue as you get down on the shot.

The top European players can compete with anyone, but the best players in the world come from Taiwan and the Phillipines.

I like cradling the cue with my fingers below it, my pinky relaxed, and opening up the pinky and ring finger on the back stroke.
