This kid needs an aiming system

Iloilo. A city on one of the 3 major islands in the Philippines. Hopefully he will make the trip to Manila in a couple years. That is if he is serious about pool and wants to become one of the best.

Experience plus Coaching = Skill

I think he could teach some of us a thing or two.
So, do you think he needs to learn CTE or is he doing just fine on his own?

Two guys in the background were talking in street Tagalog.
Kid might be the next Jano or Carlo Biado.

Regardless of how he aims he is not doing it on his own. This is the whole point. When someone HAS the advantage of being mentored then they can improve quickly.

He is 10, no job, no kids, no wife, all the time in the world to play and learn to play.

Look at the that poor kid Keith O'Dell, kid loves to hit balls, as does my daughter, but now he is all patched up and "sponsored" and the family is trying to cash in on the fact that he was taught to make a bridge at two.

You guys call this "natural talent" and in fact it's TRAINING.

How scary is this kid ???

Thanks Jeff.

Welcome Joey. Most have no idea of the talent in the Philippines. They only get a few ideas from Jay and others that travel to Manila, but if you travel outside of Manila, there are some fantastic hustlers in every province that only have hustling pool to rely on income. It is a serious business in many respects.

Holy cow!

Also, he needs a better pre-shot routine. Did you see the way he lifted his head up to look at the next ball once he was down on the shot?

And another thing! Did you see the way he dropped his elbow? He would never survive in Scott Lee's school .

The title on the video is "Abad from Iloilo." I guess that would be Iloilo City in the Philippines.

Quite a shooter, eh?

The video was taken at Puyat Superbowl at Makati Cinema Square in Makati City.

forget his pocketing skills...

His knowledge of angles is friggin second nature...on the second rack he barely looked at the set up....kids got control. Next Jano or Biado? Nah, with a stroke like that..he'll be the next busty. Man he would've smoked Darwin Vergara when he was at the same age....good stuff
