Sure, get 4 to 6 people, learn to play 3 ball. You rack 3 balls in a triangle on the spot and break them. If you dont pot a ball on the break and run out your score is 4, that is par. If you pot a ball on the break and run out its a 3, a birdie, that score usually wins. A 2 is rare, I have only seen a one made by me, I did it in 93 and I see a couple get very close and the third ball hang now and then. It's damn near impossible to make all 3 of these balls on the snap.
Every one puts in a quarter to play, every one breaks and runs out to post their best score. If the first guy posts a 4 and the next four players post 6's and the last guy ties him with a 4, its one tie, all tie, you all put in another quarter and play a 2nd round. You keep going until one guy posts the low score and wins the pot. Then you ante up and do it again. You can play for hours and nobody gets hurt because of the low stakes. This is more fun than you can imagine. I actually run tourney events on this. Any foul or scratch, you sit down and are out of that round, but can be part of the one tie all tie and go on to the next round.

how to grip

Larry,
Here's a question on Grip.
I remeber you talking about a new grip you were working on (probably years ago) where you had all your fingers on the cue, but still held the cue lightly. There was also something about using your pinkie as a rudder.
Can you elaborate on that grip, and/or your current grip technique if it's different from that one?
Hi this is fast, this is a 2nd follow up to a previous answer. I am a big guy, 6 foot, 240, 17" arms, but there is only one thing small on my body, my hands. My fingers are short, I have surgeon hands. Short fingers make lousy bridges and will hold the cue and control it different from the person with long piano fingers, those make beautiful bridges and cover the cue better. With every hand being different, one should experiment with different holds and find what works best for you, that was my message.
Here is another method, make the long bird finger the primary finger having it control the stroke and be the guiding center of it, the index just rides along doing nothing as does the ring finger, those two are lightly touching the cue. On shots requiring total accuracy, slow rolls, add the little finger on the cue and have the middle and little balance each other. On stroke shots let the little finger fly free.
The lesson on this is; Different strokes for different folks dudes.

well i slugged through that,,,,,,,,,,,you dont have to be rude,,,,,,,,,or is that just your persona ?,,,,,,, i tryed to be tactful,,,,,guess being nice isnt a way to talk with you,,,,,,,,btw, we all arent self-proclaimed writers
Hi this is Fast, I did not have time to answer this, now I do. I am not some self proclaimed writer, as the board bozo's are. A board bozo is some moron who thinks he knows every thing and nobody can teach or tell him anything. You bozos know who you are.
I am an author, I co wrote one of pools top 20 books of all time, the pool husters handbook. During the mid 90's I wrote 5 columns in 5 magazines and had the largest readership of any writer in pool including Bob Byrne. I actually have published works, do you?
Until you do, you should not be questioning me.
I am writing my 2nd book which is one third done and is on hold until I crank out 6 DVD's, then I will finish it. It is going to be a bombshell when it hits and will be on subjects never touched on before. When that comes out, then I can be judged on if I can write or not. That happens late summer of this year. Reserve your judgement until then.

I did a 1 in three ball on consecutive nights playing after tourneys. I think the balls weren't tight, but I didn't care when I grabbed the money. I didn't rack 'em.
My friend had one on last years Super bowl day while we were playing. His made the ball around the table and then the other two hit perfectly in the middle of the table, slammed into each other at the perfect angle and ricocheted each other into opposite side pockets. Now that one was lucky.
You can also have a 10 round tournament where everyone ante's up $5 and the lowest total score after 10 rounds wins the money...or splits it up.

Hi this is Fast: You must agree, racking them in a triangle and making all 3 on the snap is rare, you won't see this done many times. You need to hit them very hard and you need to get lucky, it is a fluke when it goes.
That is how I run a 3 ball tourney, ante in 5 bucks, then if they want to do a 2nd one later, ante in ten. Like in any 9 ball tourney, you have to protect the field so some ringer does not slip in and rob the boys. You could even divided up into 3 skill levels, the A-B-C and have them play 3 seperate games. Once you win a C tourney, you then have to play in the B, once you win the B, you have to play in the A. This is my kind of action. I run these and 9 ball tourneys races to one, that is all I like to do, quick and fast, any one can win stuff. Nothing serious, just a ton of fun. Pool is too serious boys, lighten it up, there is a time for serious pool, there is also a place for fun and ball banging around.
Yeah we did a tourney on a friends original Centennical A 9 foot table one Saturday. We all had a barbeque, got drunk, played cribbage, and of course the 3ball. All i needed in the 10th was a 4 to win a 5 to tie...but by that time I was so hammered that I slammed the balls and left three tough cuts. Which I parlayed into a 6 and lost. I could have just tapped them towards the bottom rail and had and easy 4. Good times.

That is what pool should be all about, having a good time, produce that, people come back for more. Who does not like a good pig out picnic, couple that with fun and pool, that's the ticket. I have been booked into a couple of these to entertain and they were big winners with nice turn outs. I can come to one of these, pull out a 7' table out of my van and be set up outside and having Wonder Dog put on a show in 10 minutes of arrival, dont even need a tent unless it rains and I carry that with me as well and can set it up in a parking lot. Pool halls and dealers need to be promoting more and doing things like this which will draw people and show them a good time. Entertainment is what it is all about if they want to draw new blood into their doors. Hire a damn band, have a party out doors, when it gets dark, me and the dog goes inside and do a show for you there, thats the damn ticket. This stuff we are doing now, 9 ball, is boring everyone she yet less and is not drawing flies. It's time to do some new stuff, shake it up, find out what sells.
Some people snear at this 3 ball, but it will steel your nerves and game. You are last to shoot, you have been through 6 rounds, the pot is ripe, everyone screws up and all you have to do is shoot a 4 to win. This game can produce some real pressure, those of you who have been there know. What we like to do is tap in the 3 balls in a triangle, pound them in so they are all 3 froze and are hand racked so nobody slugs nobody. Once you shoot, you rack. If you win the round, you shoot last on the next round.
Cribbage, that is my favorite game, tough as hell to play. It forces you to plan way ahead and think. You must pot two balls to score a crib and they both must add up to 15. If you pot the one, you now must pot the 14, if you do, score one crib. Pot 5, now pot 10. It is the ultimate postion game, I see it as a drill and teach it to all of my students. When I play with them, I make them play this with me, or rotation.

Posts: 466 Hey Fast keep the thread alive - go for 5,000 - it might get you in Ripley's - Again.
The flamers with low posts just might be pros who are jealous of you and don't want you to give out too many secrets. But they are helping you without even knowing it. Just treat them like spam and delete the poor unfortunate, misguided souls.
As for you touting something to sell - I wish more pros would do it. How else are we to know what is out there? And I would prefer to hear from the pros than any APA player under a 7. And many of the 7's are pityfull.
I did buy your trick shot tape. Not exactly a high class production. But it was jam packed with a lot of interesting shots. I am still waiting for someone to try the 4 balls on a bottle shot on TV. And two hours long.
So when your DVD comes out put me on the list for a signed copy. Perhaps you will be taking orders at home? Or will they all be on your website? Or are they two and the same?
I'll have to check your website again.
And for some reason I am unable to post on billiards-pool. That screen just does not come up for me on my computer.

Just play the table -nothing else matters.
Part 1 of 2
FAST REPLIES: I mention my thread just went past 4165 views and set a new board record and bingo one guy is on running it and me down saying that’s all crap and was nothing. That is what I face here, I do things these people can’t pull off and all they can come up with is to toss mud on what I do. That is a board Bozo, one with papers. This is where people mis understand me, there are probably 15 board bozos, total jerks and several thousand nice people who want to get along and play better. These bozos screw it up for everyone. If you have a good attitude and love pool and want to learn and play better, you are not a bozo. If you know everything, you’re a bozo, that is the test. You said keep the thread alive, damn I have been hoping the damn thing will die so I can practice more. I am trying to come back after being crippled and out of the game for over 3 years where I did not pot a ball. I am back running racks again. Last night I made 7 balls on the snap at 8 ball on a 9’ gold crown, too bad, no camera running. I used a 19 oz Schuler cue with my special bangkok birch shaft on the shot, talisman tip.
You said I might go over 5000 views and get in Ripley’s. Lookie Lookie, it is already over 5000, now somebody go off on that one as well. Which bozo jumps up first to trash that. Come on, say it aint she yit, I double dog dare you. Yes that is a record, that kind of stupid silly stuff goes into the Guiness world book of records next to the Indian who bounced 20,000 ping pong balls on his nose or has 12’ long toe nails, ugh, gag.
To get in Ripley’s there is a different criteria, you must do something that is virtually impossible, totally prove it, and it must be so impossible nobody can believe it. Who on this board ever got in? Name me any one on any of the 4 boards who ever got on? Who got in is the who’s who of pool, all the greats did. Most of the hall of famers are in there for their great accomplishments.
Crane for first running 309 on a 5x10. Mosconi for first running 526 on a 4x8’ table, everybody got in once, only the great Willie Hoppe got in twice, he held that record. Enter me, 5 times, 5 years in a row. Nobody could handle that.
Every year 1,000,000 people try to get in the column, it is hugh publicity, you are seen in 275 newspapers, on 5 continents, in 19 languages, by 100,000,000 people. That is big, very big. 700 get in. In the last 80 years the column has ran, I hold the Ripleys record in all categories of the man who got in the most, the most times in a row. When they did the premier bringing back the show to prime time TV they said find the top 4 greatest acts of all time that are still alive and can still perform and do their thing in front of a live audience on prime time TV, I got the call and was one of the 4 chosen and was in the press packages. They also gave me 10 days of advance ads and plugs showing me and the dogs which ran every hour 247. I was seen by a half of a billion people world wide on that show. I obtained that by performing great shots with my cue, not by posting advice and having 5000 people come in to view it.
Here you really see it, hit the nail on the head, lovely insight to what is going down:

Fast replies, when people take my 2 hr course and learn the drill of doom, they then realize they have pools ultimate secret. This then becomes their ultimate secret, they wont show it to their wife or momma. They guard it with their lives. This is the way pool people are, they seek the inside stuff. They know it’s there and there are these inside keys to the runs outs. When they find them, they tell the secrets to the lids of their coffins. I have all of the secrets, there is nothing I do not know or posses. Think about it, I have been working on this for a half century, why would I not be the possessor of all of this. How would I be proclaimed a billiard expert by Michael Shamos if I did not posses this?
When I stated on ccb I was going to give all of this up a bunch of instructors really went out of their way to trash me. I am going to sing like a canary, give up every single thing all of these greats taught me. It is all coming to you via DVD. Yes, there is a slight cost and charge for this. Is it not fair I reap some small reward for giving you what you always wanted and would kill for. As for these jealous instructors and pros who want to shut my trap up, I say F em, lets get on with this. My competitive life is over, I only plan to be in this for 3 years, then retire to my Ranchero in Costa Rica. I have no position to protect. I will give it all to you, hold nothing back. It is all coming, do not miss any of this, it will blow your socks off.
You said:
As for you touting something to sell - I wish more pros would do it. How else are we to know what is out there? And I would prefer to hear from the pros than any APA player under a 7. And many of the 7's are pityfull.
Fast replies, Yes, I am just telling you what’s coming, when it ready to sell, I’ll take out and pay for ads on AZ and other boards and mags, I’ll be a pro about this. Damn, I am just talking about it and they are trying to cut my throat before there is even a damn tape on the market to trash or discuss.
Your statement on 7’s in the APA, I have some problems with that. I used to be a 7 in that league. I have long stated there are 3 levels of 7’s, the 7.0 to 7.3, they can be had, they are weak, badly over rated, it kind of goes to their heads when they get that ranking. The 7.4 to 7.7, these are mostly top A players, seasoned gamblers, very skilled run out players. These are serious players, very hard to defeat, they make very few mistakes, that was what I was at the end.
The 7.8 to 7.9’s, killers, animals, preditors, roadies, hired guns, virtual pro’s in every since with no place in amateur pool. God can’t beat some of these sticks. Most of these guys are paid to play which even makes it worse, the bar owner who has the team buys this guy to take his team to Vegas, this guy is paid to show up and play under the table, it is done all of the time.
You said:

Fast replies: Any one who has bought my tape and received the 2-2000 tape, email me at once. Fastlarry@bellsouth.net. That is the promo tape. I’ll send you at no cost the 3-2000 vol I tape. The tape you should have got was the 3-2000 vol I, 2 hrs of nothing but trick shots, over a hundred, 2 hrs long. 3-2000 vol II is an hour tape another hundred different shots. 3-2000 vol III is another l l/2 hr tape. That is what I have and it can go deeper. I have filmed 63 2 hr tapes with my 1000 shot inventions, over 3000 trick shots. A dozen people have bought the entire set, it would take you a month to view it all.
Yes I agree, the shots are great, the amount of shots and the time on the tape is most generous, the price is OK, the quality is not super, this I freely admit. This was the best I could do with my mickey mouse equipment and doing the editing my self. Frankly everything is wrong, nothing is right. I do not even advertise or try to sell the damn things. The only reason I came out with them was to prove to the bozos calling me a fraud and a liar I really did do this stuff. In spite of all this, I still sold 6000 copies trying not to sell any of them. They only came up for sale on my web site a few months ago and I have only sold a handful off of the site. Sales of these tapes do not even buy my beer every month.
Once I produce a DVD on the draw, the break, the 3rd subject, the drill of doom, the 4th one is all of these trick shots finally edited and produced in a true professional package. For those of you who bought the flawed tape, I will sell you the professional version this late summer for half off the advertised price to say thanks for buying what I had out at the time.

Posts: 466 Hey Fast keep the thread alive - go for 5,000 - it might get you in Ripley's - Again.
Part 2 of 2
You said:
So when your DVD comes out put me on the list for a signed copy. Perhaps you will be taking orders at home? Or will they all be on your website? Or are they two and the same?
Every one sold will be autographed by me to the name of the person who buys it, they will be put on the market in DVD, or VHS and in every format that works in every country world wide. It will be an international product sold worldwide. The product will be first class, do not be concerned by my past product, this time around, I just show up and make the shots. A film crew with 2 digital media cameras, boom mic, umberally lighting, now pro’s films what I do, I don’t film me any more. They will edit it, dub in what’s needed, no hat tosses, no blured images. Everything I do from this point on will be done first class or I will not do it or put my name on it.
The bottle shot, you see people doing 2 balls on TV, I did 4 on prime time TV, in front of a live audience, walked on the set, from the time I set up the shot to it falling it took one minute flat, one take, first snap. When you consider the entire situation, I stand firm that was the greatest trick shot ever hit, other than the two table 6in6 Mosconi hit in 48 which I duplicated on the Ripleys show, nothing else any one else has ever done even comes close. Any fool can see this is in the top 5 of all time. That is not even up for debate.
Your reported problems on getting on www.billiards-pool.net, I don’t know, I just post there, I have no problems. I do understand they do have some problems with AOL People, I do not know why. I have written them asking them to put in a help button to email for why can’t I do this or that, or move the reply button down to the bottom of the post. So far they have ignored both of my requests. It’s a nice site, it loads fast, there are some nice subjects going on there now, I do hope you figure it out and get on.

Yes sir, they will be produced in VHS to play in VCR’s in the US and in international VCR’S also. In DVD we will use a disc that will play in any unit sold in the USA. For the international market it will be in formats that play in every country, so if you order from the UK, yours will play and be different from the person who orders from Japan or from the USA. We want this DVD instruction to be available in every country pool is played, so those of you now who read this, email me and tell me who to sell it to, who do you buy your tapes and stuff now from, I will set my product up with them for you to acquire. Send this to fastlarry@bellsouth.net, I’ll send you a free DVD when they come out for that data.

You asked: Also, any drills for improving positional play and stopping the cb in a target area accurately? What I have coming is going to blow your socks off, it's call the drill of doom. Once you learn it, your opponents are doomed. You can hit any spot on the table with this method using no English, no side, sounds impossible I know, but its coming.
I have been lurking here for a while now and I have to say, you offer nothing in the way of advice Fast Larry. All you do is pander your videos and lessons with no real answers to anyone's questions.
This is a perfect example, you spent a huge amount of time trying to sell your videos and didn't even answer the important question, how to keep the cue in a target area.
You are a joke.

HI THIS IS FAST, LET ME SORT OUT THIS MINI THREAD HERE. I have people giving me a hard time because my answers are too long; they want little quick sound bites. The guy asks a question that for me to answer it correctly with what I know is a two hour long lesson I charge $100 for and it is backed up with 40 pages in writing. I try and tell him there is not room on the board for the answer; they do restrict you to about 2 pages maximum then shut you off. I did answer the question, he just did not like the answer, and he wants me for free to condense my 2 hr lesson and 40 pages of data into some quickie sound bites he can understand. When I did not do that, he trashed me. I am damned if I do and damned if I don’t with these kinds of people, you cannot make them happy. He got my answer; he just did not like my answer. The answer was no, it won’t fit on the board. You get your answer in great detail this March, on DVD and it will only cost you $14.95 for it. I am under no contract to give everything away free on this board or on any board. I sell this stuff to feed my family and to make a living, I am a pro. The amateurs who are trying to act like pros do give everything away free that is the difference between us. Some of my stuff, you must buy or you do not get it free. If that chaps your ass, then you can just kiss my ass bubba shootervegas. When I am in Vegas, the power source pool school will be booking lessons for 2 days right after the BCA show the first week in April. Don’t be a cheap She yit, spend the C note, take the 2 hr lesson and get a private lesson on the drill of doom, then go out and kick every ones butt after you learn it. You will make the C note back the first time you match up. Chick’s aint free in Vegas neither is Fast.

Dear Larry
I do admire your enthusiasm, what is your highest break in
snooker?

My pontification of the pontificator...
In recent posts by Larry, he talks about how he owes nothing to anybody on this board unless they cough up cash. That is fine; capitalism is what built this nation. But, the start of this thread connotates free help and advice. If Larry wants to sell his DVD's and promote his lessons, then he should post a thread telling the readers of this board about them--instead of starting a quasi-help, quasi-promotion thread.
It looks like Larry used the hundreds of thousands he makes a year to buy himself a seventy-five cent word--"pontificate." Maybe he could use the money to buy grammar lessons? I'd offer my services for free
...
Here's another word for Larry: concise. If you don't like my advice or what I have to say, then pay me $100 and I'll write whatever you want...Just like Larry
In case anybody doesn't remember, this is the first post of this thread made by Fast 'Cash' Larry himself. Here, he offered to be of service to the forum members. Has anyone seen the utilization of the WEI table by Larry?

snooker
I mostly played snew-ka on 5x10 american tables which to me are nothing but tight pocket pool tables, that's not snew-ka. I played pool on them, every day I would run 2 racks of pool balls into the tight pockets and keep shooting until I poted 30 balls. I used it to tighten my aim. A 50 or 60 was a good run for me when I was on.
I played a little on a 6x12 Thurston english table from the 1920's for a few years. Only once did I score a century and barely that. I was never a pro level player at this, at best just a upper level club player. I never played it enough to get good at it. I had a proper cue with a 10mm tip, but I found jumping back and forth little tip to big tip, snooker to pool to be a problem for me. When I went blind in my right dominate eye in the mid 90's I had to give up snooker and the big tables. My eyesight today is so bad I should be playing on nothing but 7' bar boxes which I do well on and still run racks on 8' tables. I now really struggle to play on 9' tables, the long shots just kill me. Snooker is a super great game, I love it so, hated to be forced out of it.

Yes sir wonderful advice I totally agree with. Not everything in pool is what it is advertised to be. That is why everything I sell including my lessons comes with a 100% money back guarantee, If you did not like it, you don't have to pay for it, return if for a full refund.

What a really nice comment and post, for that sir I am most thankful and grateful. Yes I came home frankly sick as a dog and about half dead; it took a week to recover. 30,000 miles would do any one in. Airplanes are now nothing but disease factories. I call them sardine cans, greyhound buses with wings.
I caught a Japanese lady with a cold going sitting next to me out of SF into Tokyo, out of Hong Kong another lady had the flu, they are coughing and sneezing on you and bingo they infect you. I was drilled when I got there, then I ate what the locals ate and drank the water and bingo I have the Montezuma’s revenge taking me down. Traveling all over the world does have its down side. If you can stay healthy it's wonderful, but if you get sick and are booked every day like I was and have to keep working it can quickly become hell.
I read in the paper where it said this is so bad that if you take 5 flights, you will come down sick with something. 2 out of 5 people catch a cold if they take two flights in two days. No wonder I was sick on the 5th day out being on a plane almost every day for a month. The sars thing is really scary over there. Right after I arrived in Singapore a guy came out of china to sing who was infected and everyone within 3 rows front and back of the guy came down with sars. sing is really tough, they rounded up everyone and locked them up, and they don't mess around in Sing. They did not allow it to spread. That is really bad news because that means it's airborne and I don't think they want you knowing that. I am back running around and healthy as a buck rat now.
Look, maybe we did lip off at each other and probably were both wrong, lets find a way to get together and you teach me something and I'll try to show you something new you have not seen, how about that?
May God bless and peace be with you. May the wind be always on your back and
all 9 balls fall. VENI VIDI VICI, OMNIA VINCIT AMOR. Latin for “I came, I saw, I conquered, love conquerors all.
