Pool is simple: Make every easy shot. Make every shot easy.
You learn more from the ones you miss than the ones you make.
When in doubt, play a safety.
Money/games/tournaments you lose are more instructive than when you win.
Deflection/squirt isn't important if you pocket balls, and get shape using the vertical center line and speed control.
No one knows the best cue for you. Pick one you like and and get to know it.
"Draw for show. Follow for dough."
You alone are responsible for your failures. "Bad rolls", "Dirty table", "Bad rails", etc are just excuses.
You are only as good as your next shot.
The break and money ball are the most important shots, but don't neglect the "key ball". The last shot before the money ball is more important than the rest because there is no chance to adjust.
The more you think about missing, the more likely you are to miss.
