What are your strong points in a 9 ball match! Weak points also!

weaknesses: decision making, knowledge, aiming, stroke isn't too straight, not enough stroke power, pattern play, history of matching up bad, play bad when down, difficulty closing out, inconsistent racking, general lapses in concentration, loss of focus in long races, sputtering out of the gate in shorter races, shooting jacked up, frequently leaving myself close to rails or over balls, habit of underhitting balls and settling for the longer shot, punching long shots under pressure, can barely jump, long 1 rail kicks, hot and cold shooter, flimsy frequently forgotten pre-shot routine, habit of not getting back up if alignment is off, peers learning the game faster, very poor banker for my speed, weak speed control in the soft-medium range, erratic lines and speed control, shooting with the bridge
strengths: everything else

I was playing a buddy some cheap sets today race to 9 for $100. We are of equal caliber. First set I take him out 9-2 last 6 games and out. My focus being my strong point, riding the momentum.

Second set I come out like a chump feeling sorry for him lol, my down fall no killer instinct. 9-4 him

You just loaned him the hundred is all! One thing to remember is to stay focused at all times in a real match. Cut the race down to 5 or 7 games. I do not play my friends for money. Let me know how you make out? Tell him you come back for your loan! Thanks for your input.

Most people have to work for a living. Pool has to be down the line in importance! If you get to be good playing pool, then you have to give up weight. So, working is the best thing not the worst thing. Thanks for your input. Strong points are good too!
