I have always loved watching Ronnie Alcano play. At the world nine ball tournament in Qatar I notice a hitch in his stroke that seemed odd. I wonder if that is new to his game. Was wondering if anyone else noticed.

He is a super creative player with that long stroke, really fun to watch. I heard that he spent quite a bit of time in the northeast US a few years ago and was unbeaten in challenge matches. I don`t know if that is true but I have long heard he just brings it for the cash

Ronnie is super strong when it comes to money matches!! I'd like to say that he never lost whenever we staked him but I can't say for the other matches that he had when he was traveling with George from Connecticut.
Nobody played him even; he had to give out huge spots to get any action, even at the US Open where almost all the players were monsters!!

I noticed it as well. Normally he has that same rhythm that Efren does. Practices strokes > Pause at cue ball > One kinda fast practice stroke > Then final impact stroke (sorry best way I could describe it lol). But it looked like he added another "fast practice stroke", it didn't look like his normal routine. I dunno if he shot that way the entire tournament. I don't think it had any negative effect either (obviously).
I think his safety play and creativeness is only matched by Efren. Love watching the guy no doubt, him and Shane are my top 2 favorite players by far.

Well, he had those two bone crushing misses at the end of the match against Yukio and it made me wonder if that stroke was new....it was so unlike him to miss those simple shots. Just pressure I guess...
