have a regular session with a pal we mix it up and play different games if we're playing to 10, I might win 10-2 playing eight-ball, 10-3 playing nine-ball but when we play one-hole, he might get 1 game out of 25, maybe these scores check out to y'all? the 1p seems overly-lopsided, but not sure

I could see warming up before a lesson potentially being helpful or a hindrance to the instructor instructing- thoughts?

haven't been playing a ton lately, weather's too nice out here in seattle couple hours a week, some rotation, some eight-ball, just enjoying it tonight I go in knowing I've got 30 min.-hour to get my fix my rack run avg. (seven balls) was way up tonight, I ran a tough 8-ball rack wondering why...

driving down from seattle to monterey the first two weeks of august going to be camping and seeing some sights, wouldn't mind checking out some pool main interests there would be visiting historic pool places, and watching high-level play are there any cool out-of-the-way spots/hidden gems...

/a cue one is already comfortable with traveling this summer, not for pool reasons but am interested in trying to get a lesson while I'm away curious (obv) what you all think?

**Mike (azbhousepro) has approved this post Greetings, AZBers! I paid Anton (Anton_Bzh3) $100 to get a cue from his Butterfly Effect Challenge- I got the cue, and it looks good, but the dimensions are unfortunately not for me. I thought about keeping it as a souvenir, but decided on a...

Lawrence is renowned for his visual interpretations of Black life and history, which he often explored in series. This painting evokes a scene along Lenox Avenue, a central street in Harlem known at the time for its many pool parlors. The composition reveals a dimly lit room filled with...

in this vid, I see the player does a thing I do sometimes, something I'm curious about the result is that the cue butt ends up moving horizontally (after contacting the cb?) the player is putting english on the ball when it happens, is that why? elbow drop? my questions are: what's happening...

besides HAMB, curious if old school players did drills? if so, what were they?

nice comp..a lot of kicks!

"following through" seems to be a hallmark of having a good stroke..is it? wondering if there are exceptions. when I shoot a stun run-through shot, for example, my instinct is kind of "pop" the cb more the cb and ob are often close together in this instance, tho..that might have something to do...

as pictured, post included just name which mustachioed bca hall of famer is mentioned in one of dame's stories (not in this collection, tho) tie-breaker is how many times is mindy mentioned on page 93 of this book? good luck if you need it..I'll check back here tomorrow to crown the champ

makes me appreciate the b&w aspect of "the hustler" even more..really did a lot for that film, I think

from my first toura in a long time yesterday..I will play these out myself, but curious if you all like a certain way to hit these especially the two-rail kick..I'm usually ok with these, but was unsure about making the hit here, and honestly missed it bad the eight ball I thinned, but it came...

from playing other sports, I learned the value/importance of having good footwork this seems to apply to pool as well, tho I'm curious to what extent and I'm wondering what the benefits/consequences are of pointing feet in certain directions a little while ago, I started positioning my back...

living in seattle, I find it neat that byrne's "mcgoorty" mentions a player nicknamed the "seattle kid" a quick google search revealed a few bits, one unsurprisingly connected to byrne if you're able, feel free to add on- would be fun to learn more...

I guess there sure could be many reasons why we fail to pocket balls and/or get position and likely it depends on who's shooting, etc..but I'm wondering if instructors could/do boil those reasons down? if so, what's the list?

shooting the 1, trying to get shape on the 6- there are different ways to hit it, but I'm curious about one in particular hit well, putting low and inside/right english on the cb leaves it nicely behind the 6 for a shot in the same pocket as the 1 intellectually, I know this because I've done...

history, instruction, humor, etc. you might need a translator, but it otherwise looks like a fun resource https://www.bommeltje.nl/website/biljarten/
