Fast Larry is back

Blackjack, that must have been the video I recalled seeing.

Where in that 14.1 video does the cue ball ever touch a rail during the out? (Obviously not counting on the initial break shot.)

Can he play?

Sure can...

When he shoots the third last remaining ball, it bounces off the rail.

Not from what I could tell. I placed a straight edge along the long rail to see if the cue ball came in contact with it when he shot that shot and it came close, but as far as I could tell, did not touch it.

Perhaps you can see it better on your screen than I could, but it seemed like it didn't really even come close to touching it.
 
I don't think anyone could find the sketch of Williebetmore's game face offensive, considering the source.

Of course Fast Larry is just a rank amateur in terms of offensive behavior compared to the great WBM.

Do you have Fast Larry's Secret Tip Book? How was it? Have any others on AZ read it?
Thanks,'

I've read about it, but never seen it. I took one lesson from him a few years ago. To get the tip book you refer to, I think it would be necessary to book a two day session with him.

I have to say he was very generous with his time, and charged me $50, which was agreed to in advance, with the understanding that if I was in any way unhappy or unsatisfied with the lesson or what I learned that I would not have to pay him.

All in all, he worked on my stroke, my stance, how to address the ball and so on, and showed me a few different ways to draw the ball. Let the critics say what they want about how he teaches the draw shot, his method does work, and pretty well, although I don't use it very often.

And when all was said and done, we had the lesson and played 9 ball, all told, 3 hours. During the 9 ball session, he helped me with ideas and pointers and so on.

If it sounds like I was happy with the lesson, I was.
