Proposed TAR - TOI VS NO AIMING SYSTEM

What happens if you get your opponent on 2 fouls,and you have ball in hand behind the line,and you don't like the shot?

You can pass the shot back to them. If they fail to hit the ball or foul again, you can make them shoot again.
 
Kicking is a silly part of the game, and it was never intended to be part of 9 Ball.

Efren and the other filipinos don't play One Foul playing rotation so they still shoot spot shots and the need for kicking to prevent "ball in hand" isn't part of their game either.

Kicking does involve skill, but there's still a lot of luck in it. The champions kick to hit one side of the ball with speed to separate or put one ball on an end rail....this is the general "rule of thumb".

By the way, the famous kick Efren made would never have come up if I had won against Earl the previous match.....and it could have gone either way.

I find it hard to believe you said any of that post, but that last line really took the cake. WOW!
 
Why?

............

Seriously? Guess you can also take credit for Efrens kick because if you had been there, the brackets would have been different, and the game might never have happened at all.

Read it again, he's actually taking partial credit for Efrens kick shot because he was a loser the match before it.
 
10 Ball rules are even worse because they effectively eliminate the "two way shots," which are arguably the most exciting and interesting type of shot in pocket billiards. The game of 'One Pocket' is full of two way shot opportunities, however, the two way shots in 'Two Shot Shoot Out' are more difficult to execute on average.

Dear Mr. Coyote,

Heres a very difficult "Two Way One Pocket Shot" fer ya !

You may have just broken your own record, with FIVE (5) count'em..FIVE consecutive posts !..All this does is increase the number of "CJ Hater's"! :eek:.. I realize each post gives you another FREE shot at your 'infomercial", but you are turning people off by making them look at it over and over..endlessly ! (but, it was nice of you to cover all your 'name dropping' in one long list) :o

This thread is approaching 1000 posts, and without counting, I would feel quite safe in betting, over 500 are YOURS !..Are you familiar with the old Shakespear quote; "Methinks he doth protest too much" ?
It might not be too bad, if you had something new to say, but the repetitious, self-glorification, is rampant, and unbearable for the average forum member !..Thus, YOU have 'single handedly' swollen the ranks of 'the hater's', and have driven thousands to seek other pool forums !

As you are one of those people who is 'INSULT PROOF' (obviously)..let me try another tack !..As Chief of the "Brag Police" (which supercedes moderator's) I am hereby ordering you to 'cease and desist' or I may have to deny you any further posting privilges !..I hope it doesn't come to this, as I'm sure it would create pure havoc with your 'advertising budget' !

SJD

PS..Don't make me use my weapon !

It may be conceited but it is not factually incorrect.

No. The WPA 10-ball rules do not eliminate 2-way shots of the normal type, where you play to pocket a ball but leave the CB safe in the event of a miss. They do eliminate the type of 2-way shot where you play to pocket either of two OB's, because you must designate the (single) intended ball when attempting to pocket a ball.

No need to count, SJD, and you would lose that bet.

Moreover, if someone uses the multi-quote or responds five times what's the difference?
Who cares if he has his video info at the bottom of his posts. People that sell stuff have that, and people who don't list every piece of equipment they use at the bottom of their posts. He's not making anyone buy anything.
It sounds like SJD has been around pool a while and feels that gives him just as much weight in an argument as someone who has won championships.
 
Just curious who the next closest three are, and what is their post count for this thread?

Edit...just checked...CJ @ 213, JB @ 88, SJD @ 59, and Neil @ 38...does seem a bit lopsided, huh? LOL

Two Shot Shoot Out is definately 10 times more interesting to watch, and there's some Texas streamers that may put on such an event. I could write a 200 page book on how to play "Shoot Out" and it would only take a half a page to describe how to play "One Foul".

Anyone that's played both will agree at some level with this statement. There's really not much strategy playing "One Foul" and there's no other sport that has a "Ball in Hand" rule and it would be equally silly in golf, tennis, football, baseball, hockey, etc......I believe it's a HUGE mistake to endorse a game that you can win on a safety (to get "ball in hand" for an easy run out and not have to make a critical shot), and not have to make the necessary shots. With the lack of popularity of pool in the last 13 years I'm under the impression that most people would agree.....they just may not know why.

Tichie Ambroaw qas Mt 9 Blla playing two shot, When they changed to the one foul, he was just anothter 9 ball player. Dj has played and I doubt Chriss eer played that way. IF CJ oulds put in some time, I qwould rake a ticket on CJ!

Translation; Richie Ambrose was Mr. 9 ball playing two shot.

you know, this info would have saved me 30 minutes by hand, earlier today - i was obviously, TOTALLY, bored.
 
If I would have beaten Earl the match before I would have been playing Efren

Why?

............

If I would have beaten Earl the match before I would have been playing Efren in the finals. How many people think that same shot would have come up in our match?

That's correct, it's literally impossible for that same shot to come up......the match between Earl and I is on You Tube, or it was a while back......it came down to the wire.
 
"I figured you feel like you just got up you need to brush your teeth - LOL

That's right, Richie and I played 'Two Shot Shoot Out' in his pool room in Florida. I was with Chuck Bradley and Richie got me on the hill playing 10 ahead for $5,000. I couldn't "get in gear," and I told Chuck "I can't seem to wake up, I feel like I just got up!"

Chuck did the most ingenious thing I've ever seen, HE GOT ME MY TOOTHBRUSH.

He motioned me back to the bathroom and handed me my toothbrush and toothpaste and said with a chuckle "I figured you feel like you just got up you need to brush your teeth, sorry, they wouldn't let me bring a shower in" LoL:groucho: - I looked at him and started laughing at the ludicrousness of the situation and simply grabbed the paste and brush and went in and brushed.

I came out of the bathroom and beat "Mr 9 Ball" 18 ahead to win the set in about 90 minutes, I played completely different and "Minty Fresh" I might add. ;) 'The Toothbrush was the Teacher'

Its a good thing we are not in a court room, and you were CJ's lawyer ! He would have fired you in a hot minute, for bringing up all his shortcomings AGAIN !

El Roadrunner

PS..As he well knows, (but will NEVER admit) prime to prime, in an all-around match,..he would be the one needing 'weight' !
..And being as you are big on keeping score, that's 2,625 'brags' for the Coyote, vs. 2 for the Roadrunner ! ;)

You may need a few lessons yourself ;)
