CTE OR NOT TO CTE....is so old

I will bet a significant amount of money on Nick B drilling you in 1-pocket. Let me know if and when it goes off.

How much is significant?

I am willing to play him for up to $1000 a game.

If you want to bet then you have to match that. If he is willing to come to China and play I will pay for his hotel.

All the money, mine and yours and Nick's has to be posted with a trusted third party. We play ten ahead until someone has lost no matter how long it takes.

Let me know when you are ready to post.

I will bet on the set, I will put up 1k and you put up a custom hand tooled 3x4 case with a tropical palm tree and ocean theme. And as an added bonus I will jump onto AZB after I recieve the case and tell everyone how awesome it is, because that is something where you truly know your stuff.

That's not significant enough. I don't think you understand that I always tell everyone that I am student of the game not a master of it. I have never claimed to know everything about pool. What I do know however is that CTE works and FOR ME it works better than any other method of aiming that I have tried.

Just like with my cases I know that they work because I have taken the time to study everyone else's to determine how ours can be better.

If I didn't think CTE was worthwhile then I wouldn't pass it on. And in fact I didn't try to pass it on until it was validated by top level instructors who teach it as part of their courses. I am still learning how to teach it by delving deep enough into it to understand it.

If you want to disprove it then go ahead. Get a video camera and do it. So far all you have, all Nick has, all Pat has are words. Maybe when you see Stevie Moore or Landon Shuffet playing you can pick out their misses and declare that CTE doesn't work.

Nick has no chance against me. I get better every day.
 
Would you like to try Stevie Moore some? I am sure that can be arranged. He's probably going to be out that way in May. If you're just dying for action then I can find you a CTE user to play. How about Landon Shufett? At 16 years old he can't possibly know enough about one pocket to be a threat to you. So I will bet on him and his CTE against you with no spot. Want to beat up on a 16 year old?

I have no dog in this fight, but I wondered when I'd see someone post something like this. You guys could just go back and forth with that because I'm sure that John could find a non-CTE player that would like to play your CTE players. :)
 
On a side note, why isn't there an Aiming System forum yet? There are sub-forums for far less popular (and debated) topics. Seems like a no-brainer to me but, hey, I've been accused of not having a brain before, I guess.

Significance is relative. I am currently doing my third university degree, so money for me might not at this moment be as free flowing as it is for you. When I graduate and become employed there is a good chance I will then be able to high roll you into not playing, and won't that be useless...

If you want to play then play, if you want to gamble then gamble, acting like $1000 is not worth your time just says to me and anyone else reading that you don't want to do anything at all and simply want to high roll yourself right out of the chance of a match.

Maybe so. The point for me is that I don't want your money that badly but if you insist then the bet has to be on my terms.

If you want to weigh in and start telling me how you think Nick will drill me in one pocket and you will bet high then bet high and don't play word games.

Traffic equals ad impressions - ad impressions equals revenue.

The only way to keep these off the main forum is to have a moderator moving them on a daily basis. None of the moderators have been instructed to do this.

Beyond that if the forums end up getting so segmented then they will be fairly worthless as traffic will drop considerably. Apparently the topic has a fair amount of interest as it's continually posted to. Imagine what would happen if the naysayers just all agreed to stop posting. My prediction is that the discussion around CTE would drop considerably and the threads would fade away.

Every action has a reaction or something like that.........

Actually you are the one that immediately insists on gambling on shots to prove CTE when people begin to debate that topic with you. I am ok simply discussing the system but it seems anything critical mentioned and you simply say "yeah well ya wanna bet?". Not knowing who you are talking to means that when you do quickly find out that action will change from you wanting to play to you wanting Stevie Moore or Landon Shuffet to play in your stead.

Have you ever seen Nick B play? Do you even know who he is? You claim you can win, but I am not even sure you have a clue how he plays or who he is for that matter.

Actually, if you had a shred of true analytical sense you would see that in EVERY one of these "debates" I TRY very hard to explain the process, profer my own experiences, do videos showing my progress and generally try to stay focused on the technique - - - - UNTIL the constant naysaying without trying gets to me. At which point I say let's play some.

I don't know anything about Nicky Boy. Maybe he is the greatest undercover player in the world and I am heading for a cliff. No idea. He is the one who told me to look around and I found nothing. All I know is that he and his partner are co-champions of the 2005 (I think) British Columbia Electrical Association's annual scotch doubles tournament. That's not very impressive to me.

So I like my chances against most people who have no reputation at all. In fact I am more scared of you because I don't even know your name. You could be Tyler Eddy for all I know.

And of course I want to put up the best players I know who are open CTE users IF the person on the other side is also a champion. Would be kind of stupid for me to go up against a champion wouldn't it? Financially I mean.

As you know anyone beating anyone else doesn't prove jack. Your side has said that a million times, it's only for bragging rights at best.

But when you make wild speculations about whether or not CTE works for particular shots and CLAIM it does not for the purpose of denigrating a system you can't even use then let's have a shot making contest. Because that's a tangible - you set up the shots you claim can't work with CTE and shoot them using your method and I will shoot them using CTE. Simple proposition. Simple measure. Simple bet.

We don't even have to bet money. We can bet for leaving the discussion. I win, you never say another word about CTE ever again until you have bought the DVD and learned the system earnestly and honestly. You win I will leave the discussion and never talk about it again on AZB.

Put up your best ten shots. We both get three tries per shot and the best average over the ten shots is the winner. The rules are that when we say go you have two hours to make a video with your best average and upload it to YouTube. I will upload mine to my server at the same time and post the link on the bet thread because my uploads to YouTube are super slow. AZB members will verify that I put up the same exact video on YouTube as I uploaded to my server.

Put up or shut up. It's that simple. You all want to argue and insult without ever trying it and now you want to tell us what actually works and doesn't work with a system you don't even bother to try?

Fine, let's have a little contest. Put up your toughest shots and show us your scores. I will volunteer to be the one who does the test even though I am probably the worst player on Team CTE.

Bet?

No Jimmy, it comes down to people not just leaving it well enough alone. CTE is a method of aiming. If it really doesn't work then let the suckers be suckers.

The fact is that JR Hendy plays on an even level with people like Grady Matthews and Ronnie Allen, Morro etc.... and he thinks that he has an easy fish on the line with me.

I am always willing to fire money at people I don't know just to test myself. It's how I have always been. However after the initial donation period then I expect the game to be adjusted to be actually gambling.

This isn't a case of my brother can beat up your brother. It's a guy who has decided to stalk me through the forums and bark at me after I already told him we could play. So if he is that desperate for action then some CTE players will be happy to play him in his game of choice and they will be in Vegas at the same time as him.

I have no clue whether 16 year old Landon can beat John Hendy in one pocket, I have no clue if Landon can even play one pocket at all. I know Stevie can play some but I have no idea where his one pocket game is at. The point is that I am happy to back either of these players when I am not there to play myself.

But the bigger question is why not leave it the **** alone. You don't see me running through the forums telling everyone who talks about Ghost Ball, Double the Distance, Shadows, Lights, Disco Twirling or any other method that I want to gamble with them JUST BECAUSE I don't believe in the method they use. If these people would just exercise some ****ing discipline and some COURTESY then the CTE threads would go away as the CTE people would confine themselves to one or two threads that they would use to discuss their experiences.

JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER "TECHNIQUE" THREAD.

One of these days I am going to come out to Arizona and walk into Kolbys and put a bag of money on the table and say "form a line boys" and we are going to get down. I am either going to be gone in a day or around for a while. Until then whoever wants to can cyberstalk me. Meanwhile, the door is always open for any of you to come to China and play some.

Bust me here and you can see the Great Wall for free. :-)

Are you naming Arizona because I'm here and you're responding to my post? I'm not stalking you for action at all. I would play if you were offering me a game but, again, I'm definitely not stalking you for a game. In fact, I'm not even asking at all. I was just making an observation. I don't do any online woofing these days because I can't beat anyone! I used to at least be the best player on my street, but I'm not even sure about that anymore.

JB...if you do come to Kolbys.....I won't be in any "line" to gamble with you......but I would not mind hitting some balls with you....just let me know....we can "sketch" something up....:wink:

The inherent problem with this "line" at Kolby's is that it would end up forming behind Scott....and is pretty much a no win situation....you are either going to be bust, or nobody will play you if you happen to put the beat down on Scott.

What I find most interesting is that 1-pocket is probably the worst game to be playing to demonstrate the effectiveness of CTE....

Didn't you mention something about a 17 year old kid accross the street offered you the 7 out??? ...how did that come out???

Perhaps your rails are not really dead....perhaps it is your old and your stroke is dead....:p

menwhile...you could probably still give me the 7 out and drill me...:wink:
