Hey guys, I don’t feel bad for anybody that’s a slow learner. Just stick with it it takes time. I’ll throw in a little story just to bore you. I had about 10,000 hours in by the time I started going to the pool hall.. but I didn’t know how to use left or right. Crazy right? It’s the truth. I...

My question is. Did the guy also take 2-3minutes to break after racking? That would be total nonsense. I’m a nice guy usually, but at that point it would be like what’s your fucking deal? Edit: can I say that on here f()$&&@g?

Also very true. I know that exact feeling. It’s because there was no one better to help you figure it out. But even if you can’t get better, you better pick up a cue from time to time and practice something or you’ll get worse. I have a good story on this very thing but trying to cut down on...

Ah. I played the slow guy at the hall for money one time. I legitimately asked him before if he was gonna play super slow. I don’t remember how-it was in a nicer way. Like I know you play a little slower are we gonna be able to finish the set? He’s a 650. No slouch!

You still heated about this? Next time before the match starts have the TD come over with you to the table and ask the TD in front of him how long a normal shot should take. Discuss it before hand. Let the other guy know you won’t take his BS. if the TD says 2 to 3 minutes a shot is fine then...

I don’t think any league will lead you there. I’ve given it some thought as many have said join a ACS or BCA league if you want to get better. What’s the difference between those and APA Masters? My new response to those people that really feel APA is slowing them down-if you want to be your...

A lot of people knock APA. Even I knock APA sometimes because it’s not very competitive. I’d even say it can slow your progression slightly. But people forget the fact that it’s got nothing to do with what league you’re in if you want to get better. The only way to get better is to practice...

There are a few others with higher end cues there too. The only guy I know that had a cue stolen, well it was cues(ouch!) had a few stolen by UPS not at the hall. All $1000+

two balls together will cut the throw in half when applying spin because they are double the mass. I think anyway.

I’ll wear whatever I have on that day. It doesn’t matter. I drive a rusty truck there most of the time so it’s not like I’m rich or am looking to impress anybody. Well I usually have to wear boots or running shoe type sneakers. Flat Nikes converse etc and sandals mess up my stance a little...

I did the same but just edited it. Was talking like Efren is dead and gone or that’s what my original Efren reference post kinda looked like……🤔

If you don’t like to add substances how about having a bit more confidence in your game. Humans in general have a natural tendency to use body English to try to help projectiles move in certain paths. It doesn’t work, but the only reason you rise up is because you aren’t 100% positive the ball...

Weed works best but Xanax does the trick. Some opioids could do the trick too but not my thing. I get sidetracked on those. The only problem with the Xanax is you might not remember playing the next day. Especially if you add a beer or two to the mix. So if you are like me and still have your...

Well have you ever renovated a house? You can put holes all over the place through 2x4’s for electrical and plumbing needs, like up to 2” holes and they will still have enough structural integrity to hold up your house.😉 I’m just saying if the wood was not holding up well with all the inlays...

That’s great advice. I see way too many people that are pretty good not having a clue how to kick safe. It bothers me, but not when we are playing.

Boogie is a dirty dawg! Lolol. My second match last time in Vegas for APA. Playing 8 ball. Full table length carom 6 from the headstring, off the 8 ball sitting under the spot, and into the corner. Yes off the money ball and shot hard cause there were clusters and had to be hit hard for correct...

so let’s take an example here-Efren. So he was like I was saying earlier. He was like a pro level Kamikazee. He took shots other players wouldn’t. And he is/was that good too. But the point being. I’m sure a lot of the pros got thrown off playing Efren at least in the early Efren days. Where...

Exactly. Those are the ones that can make you question your life sometimes. Not your life but life choices👍. Or if you should even play anymore. I unintentionally missed 2 easy ones against a girl I played Friday. It was impressive how good she had gotten since last time I saw her play. In turn...

Yeah. When I play that 650 in the tournament I always want to roast his ass. As you can see by the stats for some reason, I always get stuck playing him. When we play for money it’s always like 7-5 or around that on avg. And yes we’ve played enough. I know when he’s trying. Too worried about...

Well the thing is that 680 is definitely a 680 with 5000 games in and that 650 is definitely a 650 with 5000 games in and the 650 has a problem beating one of the really robust 630’s. All three of their games are a little different. Are you saying you can’t tell the difference between games at...
