Never seen one pocket been played before so I was wondering if anyone knows where I can maybe get a sample video of like, one rack or something like that. I was looking at accu-stats videos, but I dont know if I want to buy a one pocket video, then end up not liking it. I've checked on DC++ but I dont seem to find any, and there are hardly any address's anymore.
 
I don't know where you can buy a tape of one game.
Check out www.onepocket.com for loads of info on the great game of One Pocket. Specifically, look for Tape #1 from Willie Jopling in the "Marketplace". It's good for a beginner.

I think onepocket.org might be a better choice unless that is what you meant.
 
one pocket, like chess can be boring as hell to watch if you dont know how to play. Im sure you could find someone who knows how to show you. But hey, pool videos never get boring either

Here's a short clip taken with a video cam at our pool club. You can see me (whee) running 7 and just barely missing to see enough of the last ball, the 1-ball I tried to free from the rack. Doh.

I can assure you, this is not a common way to play 1pocket. I'd say usually you see more safety play :)
 
Find someone in your area that plays and ask if they can teach you. It's a phenominal game that will improve your banks, safety shots, etc.
