I would like to take this opportunity to express my love and life with Billiards.
In 1990 I left NYS for personal reasons and moved back to Philadelphia which is my home town and stayed with my mother when I was 50 years old. I had a Gus Szamboti beautiful stick that he made for me in 1983. Now i didn't know much about pool and played for 6 mos. and did not play until i got to Philly in 1990.
I went to a pool room on Roosevelt Blvd. which was called Blvd. billiards. Little did i know there were some of the greatest pool players in the world including One of the great players was Wade Crane. I was told by someone that the next day they were opening a new pool room called South Philly Billiards, so the next day i went because it was 8 mins. from my house.
The next day I walked in to packed house with most of the best players in the world. They were Efren Ryes, Fransisco B. Luat ,Andon, Rafial Martinez, Allen H. Grady M, Billy Incardona and just too many to mention.
So I continued to go there everyday for 5 years and became best friends with Jimmy and Pete Fusco and ended up working for Pete off and on for 4 years. i studied the game everyday 12- 14 hrs. a day. I could not aim at all. So one day I asked Pete if he could teach me how to aim and he said. Ron V I DO SOMETHING FUNNY WITH MY STICK AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO TEACH THAT.So i said i know you move your stick and said well I'll try and figure it out..I worked on it for six mos. and i had it,except I could only turn the stick 1 tip then my hip was in the way because sometimes i needed a half ball turn. So out of frustration i moved my hip out of the way and there it was I had it.. So since 1992 i have been using that system and it had no name.
People would ask me to show them how to do it and I told them that the half ball turn with the hip came up 90% of the time and the 90/90 was born.
I am going to skip a lot of years. I taught it for many years until 2006 I developed Prostate Cancer and 6 mos later my heart stopped and had a triple bypass. One day I went on AZB. and all these people were asking on the forum who can teach me how to aim, and I wrote I Can. What do you want to know. Well the s...t hit the fan and I got calls from all over the world and 75 e mails in 3 days.
So what's my point your asking now.
One never knows how long there going to be here. So I would like to teach as many people as I can that want to learn the 90/90 system. I just got 2 PM'S from the UK for help and of course I will help them. I can't begin to tell you how easy the method I teach is. You just have to believe. So who ever wants to learn you can call or come to NYC and there is no charge.You will learn in every detail how it works,why it works and where the 3 changes are including Banking,Diamond Systems and positioning using the diamond system...
That's The Best I can Do
