We had our regular pool matches at my house last night and there were some GREAT games played. Dan was kicking butt and wound up getting 10 games to my 3, Ken's 3, Rich's 1, Eddie's 1.
We played mostly 8 ball and Eddie and I play one APA 9 ball match which I won 55 to 31.
Soon we will start to play some 14.1 and I am really looking forward to that.
I am flabbergasted at how different the whole thought process is to play good straight pool. I find myself thinking so much that I can't hit even the most simple shot sometimes. Shots that I make blind folded in 9 ball or 8 ball are all of a sudden complicated beyond belief!
If you don't believe me now then you have not learned to play straight pool yet either. Or maybe you are a pool prodigy and I should just shut up.
