What’s everyone doing to prepare for the tournament?

Personally I have been getting up before the sun, drinking a glass of raw eggs and running through the streets while dozens of kids follow in support. I have hired Survivor to follow me around and play “Eye of the Tiger” :cool:

Anyone else have pre tournament tips?

I'll have to empty the cats litterbox to keep my eyes from watering while shooting ... I hate that ! A couple of ice cold light lagers will be required to clear the dust, then I'll vacuum the cat hair off the table and start shooting '20's ... I can dream can't I ?

Actually I'm practicing the break (not too hard, just enough to spread the balls evenly to minimize clusters). I have a BIG problem, and that is my cloth; it is now a little aged, and it makes my table play like a MF'er - extremely difficult compared to last year. Even though my game has improved significantly, I'm afraid my scores may not; just because the table is tough as hell this year.

I'm continuing my usual straight pool drills that I do every year during league season.

P.S. - You are going to have to shag Paulie's sister and then get beaten to a pulp by some big, dark complexioned guy if you are really going to pursue your line of practicing.
 
My weekend starts at noon tomorrow so I’ll go and do some practice on table 9 at the local pool hall. It’s out of the way and I can pretty much get the same table everyday. I plan on starting on Thursday and getting in a few scores this weekend.

Yea forget the other practice routine , all those kids were getting on my nerves anyway. I like your idea of practice better.
 
Haven't been doing anything too special, I wake up at sunrise everyday and eat a healthy breakfast consisting of all the food groups to prepare for my two hour Yoga class, after that I run five miles (uphill), this is followed by a couple hours at the gym. In the afternoon I swim several laps and do my aqua-aerobics to get me warmed up for my regular aerobics class. I then enter a deep state of meditation to relax my brain in the evening, that's about it really.
 
I run 3 laps around the house with a Spongebob beach towel tied around me like a cape.
 
Have you ever seen Rocky?


Well thats not what I'm doing, in fact I'm not doing any practice. Just going to play it cold and see how I do.
 
It's too late to prepare....your time has come...the pool gods have already laid out your destiny. Trinity will come to you in a dream....you are the chosen one...enter and begin...

Choose the blue pill or the red pill...

THE RED PILL, THE RED PILL DAMNIT!
 
I wake up, put on some pool recordings then check the forum out to give me that extra shove. Then after i close out the forum i get tired and lazy and don't have the urge to go down stairs and start hehehe. League today so this will give me the confidence to finish my last three sessions. :)
 
Prepare? We're supposed to prepare?

Seriously, I've only been playing a year, so my preparation right now is mental - talking myself into posting the scores!

I wanted to try a rack or two last night at some point during my team match, but it was a little bit of a nail biter and I wanted to stay right there & support the crew. I should be back at the hall Thursday.

And Friday, and Saturday, and Sunday....

<grin>

AlterEgo,
I personally think you should FORGET the practicing (I know I have); I think Hal's SpongeBob cape thing is likely to be more effective - that's a serious dude.
