I am a "mood player" for sure...Sometimes a song will pop on the juke box and snap me into the zone. I've had altercations off the table send me into "kill mode" on the table...Some days I'm just in the mood to play pool...On those days I just know my best game is coming out before I even put my cue together. Playing for something (adding pressure) brings out my "A game" at times too...I wish I could nail down exactly what things put me in the right mindset to play my best...all I know is every time my average every day game jumps up a notch it seems like my lights out game jumps two!...
