    How Much$ Do You Bring to PHall?

    i live in manila, so the prices are cheaper and 5 bucks is actually a decent amount. 5 bucks is enough for an appetizer, a steak dinner, and a soda.

    How Much$ Do You Bring to PHall?

    i only bring 5 bucks with me when i go to the poolhall. enough to cover my food expenses. this tactic has helped me mentally because i really have to play my A game everytime someone wants to play me or else i'll be lying unconscious in the parking lot or spending a few nights in jail. i don't...

    Can inexpensive cues become great hitting cues?

    definitely. my lucasi sneaky pete which i bought new from a local cue store for $40 is the best hitting cue i've ever used. i have owned a southwest, a viattorre, a richard black and a jacoby, and i swear that none of these 4 cues compares to the hit and feel that i get from my sneaky pete.

    what's with the fake names?

    to protect your identity and to prevent embarrassments. my friend's identity was "stolen" a few days ago when he forgot to log-out using a computer rented in an internet cafe. the impostor started several racist thread on our university forum where my friend (he is kinda famous around campus)...

    the throw stroke

    while practicing yesterday on a humid day on very slow house cloth, i kinda found a different kind of stroke. i've never read about this kind of stroke on all the pool books (books by capelle, byrne, and fels) i had, so i thought that it might be a flaw in the stroke. i am talking about the...

    Who's the most composed player at the table? (Longish: still elaborating my thoughts)

    a funny story about efren that i've read in a forum (i think it was easypooltutor.com) is that when marlon manalo knocked efren out of last year's wpc, efren was so frustrated and angry about losing to manalo that he ignored and avoided marlon for about 3-4 days.

    Who's the most composed player at the table? (Longish: still elaborating my thoughts)

    leonardo andam handles frustration very well with his "devil may care attitude". when he misses a shot or botches a safe, he just smiles as if he doesn't give a damn. ;)

    drills for weak mental game

    i have this problem when playing weaker players. i kinda "zone out", just banging balls around, not taking the game seriously. i lose often playing this way and its frustrating, since i could have easily beaten them giving them 7-9 (when i'm playing seriously). i was wondering if anybody has...

    Efren vs Tooth Fairy

    well, i hope trudeau does not force efren to wear his dentures cause efren looks better toothless :)

    Efrens understanding.

    imo, i believe that efren's advantage among other players is his experience in playing almost all kinds of games and playing them well. his kicking and safety play comes from his background in 3-cushion billiards. his shotmaking, banking and table management comes from his experience in...

    confused about bridge lengths

    how does the length of your bridge equate to accuracy? or does it really matter if you use a long or a short bridge? i've read in some books and several instructional articles that short bridge lengths (around 7 -9 inches) makes your game more accurate. yet i've rarely seen a top pro with such...
