Byrne's Complete Book of Pool Shots: 350 Moves Every Player Should Know
I walked into Borders today with the intention of finding some GMAT review books but of course my mind is on other things.
I go find some pool books (which are IMO unfairly placed in the Gambling section) and I find this book. I scan through it and start reading. Man this book has some interesting stuff! Interesting enough to get a poor college student to buy it anyways.
This book indeed has 350 different shots split up into various categories and many of them are very interesting, with little time spent on basic shots. A lot of safety paths, situational shots, safety escapes, etc. Remember how you felt when you first learned that you could make the ball go backwards with draw? Well thats how I felt when reading this book, except 100 times over. (100/350 is pretty high for any good player) Basically, I just found this book to be a great reference thats is definitely worth its money.
Anybody else read this book before?
