    Slow play by pros

    Not a pro but played pros in tournaments. Can’t think of a specific tournament but know it happens in 9 ball. I watched Alex slop twice in one tournament on the Billiards TV. channel just a couple months back. He had a shot into the side on the 8 ball and needed to draw back for the 9. The 8...

    Slow play by pros

    I think the games should be 8 ball or 10 ball, I grew up on 9 ball but slop has changed the outcome of so many tournaments. Why be rewarded for a miss? There should be a 30 second shot clock with one extension per game

    Compete without fear

    Usually fear is just a lack of confidence in your own ability and how you talk to yourself before a shot. A long straight in shot on a 9 foot table used to scare me even though I would make it a hundred times a day in practice. When it happens now I just smile and tell myself .. thanks for the...

    WWYD if Earl

    Nope wouldn’t want to leave it there. One rail straight out for six or two rails to same spot

    WWYD if Earl

    Whether you go one rail towards the six or two rails, either to me is fine, but I think Earl just over cooked it

    WWYD if Earl

    He should have never let his stroke out on a shot like that. The collision caused the CB to go to his right and then bend(masse) back to his left zapping the CB’s energy so it just floated up towards the side pocket. He should have just rolled it back for easy position
