Tip from a bankpool player

[John Brumback]

" you need to shoot firm or hard to hold a or shorten a bankshot"That's a complete myth
and total BS for a lack of better words. To the people that think that...all I'm going to say is....you should try to practice without thinking you know everything. "Don't ever be to smart to learn" wow,John B.

John,
Has that been true always or is it only true with todays equipment? Also, I find it a little easier to shorten up banks on Diamond tables. Is this true or am I just imagining it? Thanks for posting John! Always good info!

last couple years ive been playing on diamonds, as opposed to gold crowns, and I find it amazing some of the banks I can make on diamonds (pinching em)....banks I wouldn't even attempt on gold crowns.
