Wow...

Okay, I may have missed out a few little details... :o

I have been going to an under 16 league in POOL for 5 weeks, but I have been playing snooker for about 3 or 4 months 3 hours a week. But I'm still extremly happy with the way I'm progressing... and I can make maybe a 12-14 foot draw on a pool table. Maybe it's because these leagues also come with some coaching too... :D

This new poster uses proper punctuation and paragraphs and speaks as an older adult, while claiming to be only 14. He spells 'know' incorrectly (no), yet uses " " to emphasize key words. He runs out and plays in a league at 14 and after a few weeks. He can't use the Wei table, but learns how only a few posts later.

Yeah, I always use proper puntuation... I don't feel right talking in text language. I knew how to use the table thing, it just didn't work when I tried to put it in a post. Then I looked in that help thread and I could do it. I assure you, I am 14... :)


EDIT: I'll post some videos soon, to prove it.

I'm afraid that I will have to see you clumsily interacting with a girl before I'll believe THAT....... :)

Nice post, Walt. Or was it Tony?

Yeah, because a youtube video will definitely prove that it's you making those shots. Kid, your nose is growing.
 
mattman said:
Yeah.... me also. Touch of bottom, natural angle, break and runs, potting balls. Quite the vocabulary for only playing 5 weeks.


Although I hadn't picked up a cue till recently, I have loved to watch snooker all my life and started watching pool about a year ago. So I know all the vocabulary.

Fine, I'll directly say "I am crappoolguy who is definately a kid" to the camera and then play some.
 
Yeah, because only YOU are able to say that. No one else could possibly do that in your place. That will definitely work as proof.

I am a kid! *laughs* what do I need to do to prove it to you?
 
You won't need to. At your rate of improvement, you can make a comment to the camera when you're 16 at the WPC in 2008. 3 months of playing in total and you made that runout? I'll be seeing you on TV in the next year.

You mean jargon ?

Yes, I did honestly make that runout. Now, give me something I can realistically do to prove to you.

I'm 14, and I've only been playing for about 5 weeks, playing one day a week, an hour a time. I've been going to a league for these sessions, and at the beginning I could barely hit the on ball. I'm improving so fast it's unbelievable! I just made a clearance and I'm feeling so good! (I no this is nothing to most of you guys but it's a lot for me! :D

I had ball in hand, shot the 3 in the top right, drew back for the 4 ball, shot the four in the bottom left with a touch of bottom and potted the 5 in the same pocket. Then I potted the 6 in the side, drew back for the seven in the opposite side, had the natural angle to get to the 8, drew back for the nine and shot it straight in! And I've had so many "nearly" break and runs - it can't be long now! And just wait till I get my cue! :) Hopefully when we get a home pool table I'll be able to tape some videos and put them on youtube! Sorry but I just had to say all this - I'm so happy with the way I'm improving! :D

BTW, I'd post a diagram but I don't know how to post the cuetable thing. Someone help me out? :confused:

Leave this pool alone and stay in school!!! I'm telling you for your own good,you'll end up with a mis-spent youth,and there is nothing worse than a 45 year old degenerate,with no money,no family,and basically no life.Just a lot of question marks"if I would have stayed in school,I could have done this or that"

Btw, I'm not the guy I'm describing.I'm only 41 :)

So what you're 14 and can draw your rock!At 14, I could dunk!

Spooky. Walt is 41. crappoolguy is 14. Is this BizarroWalt's alter ego?
