Hey everyone, thanks for tuning in yesterday. Dan, no need to apologize for giving valuable feedback. Actually, this was our first live stream ever and we didn't wanna spend a s**tton of money here :) Well, and this is basically all you get with a webcam for 80 bucks... And I didn't set...

Andre Lackner is one of the top players in Germany, won a medal in 8ball,9ball, 10ball and the title in Straight Pool in this year's German Championships. Ranked 5th place in the World Tournament of 14.1 in New York in 2014. Awesome player and a fine young gentleman, too!

Joey, thanks for the feedback. Glad that it helps. You can see all the pros aim from above and a lot of amateurs not doing it :) Oh, just in case some of you can't wait for the next chapters or would like to have them all together: You can buy my book as ebook or printed here...

Hey Dan, thanks for the bump :) Glad that somebody's waiting for my content. I'm not posting the articles myself, the AZ Billiards editorial team is doing it. Sometimes they skip a week, I guess due to heavy workload or plenty of current news. Next chapter should be out this week. Best Patrick

I don't get the joke :) Aiming systems aren't the big deal over here... if that's the reference.

Well, my aiming system is pretty simple :) 1. Choose the right spot for the cue ball to hit the object ball. 2. Shoot it there as precisely as you can.

Hey Jim, thank you for the kind words. I enjoy helping players as much as you do. Keep it up and I hope you like the upcoming chapters.

It's 1am in Europe, we're going home now instead of watching the stream. Seems that the finals are not as important as this pathetic ceremony. Will check the results tomorrow.

In Germany, rates in pool halls vary between $ 5-12 an hour, always for the table, no matter how many players. Besides pool halls we've got a lot of non-profit membership clubs where you pay a monthly membership. These vary between $ 30-100 a month.
