10ball ghost race to 17

Your a fairly good shot , but try running on the ghost with no ball in hand,, theres a true test for ya..
 
^^Oh But you can my man ..

The break shot is to be controlled like any other shot,, it takes time ,,but is very obtainable,, however dont expect to win 7 outta 10 when playing no hand,, its said that Men pros,,are only capable of running from the break (in 9 ball) 23% of the time..
 
Okay...but you say...


If your statistic is true (which sounds about right to me), then on average the pros can't even beat the ghost without BIH. So how can you expect an amateur to?



I NEVER said it was easy , but its much more rewarding feeling, and true to actuall play ..
So there for, its beneficial to at least attempt to run from break with no hand , cause at your local tourney nobodys gonna let you get a free ball in hand after your break,, its worth giving a try, its certainly more realistic ........
 
Your games came a long way Charlie. Keep up the hard work. Where is the place with those Gandy's your playing on at?
 
That looked suspiciously like Hendon's head in on of those video's, he gotten any better?

Nah probably a b+ player. I give him 789 and 2 on the wire going to 11. You never know what your gonna get with him. Some days he will lose a lot some days he wont bet a nickle.
 
Looked real good Charlie! How did the race end up? Where there more clips for that race that I didn't find?

One thing that I noticed, that I feel can help, is to take the same amount of time on each shot, even the easy ones. When you start to speed up for the easy shots, it can come back and haunt you.

I know what ya mean. I played a good player last night some cheap action races to 11 for 100 and lost two sets. I rushed alot of the easier shots and missed them. I probably played 40% of what I am capable of. With this guy he doesnt need much. I am gonna fix this.
 
The guy you played last night anyone I would know? Mike Ricketts playing any in Farmington?
 
Mike was from Graves Co., played pretty close to Hendon maybe a little better. Just wondered if he was playing anymore. Don't guess I know Rusty either, course its been close to 6 years since I was around.
 
looks like you're going to have to start giving up weight after people see these

That's what I was thinking. If I played that good I wouldn't let anyone know.

Of course maybe this is part of Charlie's hustle, maybe he plays a lot better than this. If so, I'm sorry for killing your action, Charlie. ;)

Very good play, by the way.

I don't want to offend anyone, but that place looks like a dump. A dump that keeps up their equipment, so that's good. One of my favorite places to play looked worse than that, but they also kept up the equipment... mostly. I would much rather play in a dump with good tables, than one that turns into a nightclub after hours.

lmfao ha yea Its not as bad as it seems. They do take care of their tables and its usually is pretty quiet in there. I just happened to show up the night they were having a 10 man golf game going on. Listen to the audio for a good laugh.
 
Yeah man, learn from it and get back in there and try again. Bugs me that I don't know this guy Rusty. Only Rusty I remember used to run the APA before Rick Ray, don't think his last name was Jackson and don't remember him playing that kind of speed.

No man your thinking of someone totally different. The guy I played is a player. I think he just won a big tournament down in Atlanta. Its a close game and neither one of of is stealing so it gambling. Thats what I need though tough action to get seasoned because to be truthful Im not seasoned yet. I remember about 3 or so years ago he was getting the 8 from Vita and winning so he can play.
