Fantastic pool teacher. I flew up and worked with him for two and one half days. This time we worked on 8 ball and 8 ball patterns. Almost always before we worked on 9 ball and shape on the next ball. We all know the games are very different. After the 8 ball break one needs to pick the best solids or stripes and pick the pattern. If you're able to find a great pool teacher, Robin is among the best.
