Long story short. I entered a tournament for women in my area. Most of them play in the Double or Triple A leagues (I play in VNEA). About an hour before leaving to warm up at the pool hall, I watched this video. I didn't win any games that night. However, I sunk all my balls against the higher seeded players to put me into the top 5 for points. Your videos have helped me grow significantly. Thank you for your advice!
I especially enjoy your videos because you include a picture of the ball and where to hit it with every shot enabling me to learn faster. Thank you. A great touch to the videos.
I find your instructional videos extremely valuable, logical, linear and exceptionally clear. Thank you!
Thanks Steve! Glad to hear that :)
Thanks for another excellent video! You are (I'm guessing) a born teacher/instructor. the quality camera work and pace of each video is spot on IMHO. There is a lot of folks doing similar videos, but damn few if any , it appears to me, put the time ,effort, and preparation into them that you do. I know that I'm not the Lone Ranger when I say we appreciate that.
Thank you really a lot for appreciating!
We just finished playing. My first idea was to watch one of your positioning videos after losing another game. Got home and this is what I got. Thank you :)
You're very welcome :)
Love your videos. 59 years old and still lots to learn. Thank you.
Great content. Please adjust camera angle to avoid distortion. Maybe a little bit higher or directly above the table. Thank you!
I will fix that once I have my studio :)
Yesterday's tournament I was talking with my friend about losing and told him exactly the same.. If you try your best, your opponent is way better or lucky than you, you never lose in your mind and that is the most important thing. Past years I've seen many good players quit because their oly enemy standing on their way is their own ego.. You never lose untill you quit trying!👏👏👏👍
Pool With Sam well said
you either win or learn
Helpful as always and explained in an understandable way. Please keep up the good work.
Thank you. I will!
Excellent illustration of why center table is so often the best choice! Thank you!
You're welcome Stan :)
🙋🏼♀️Hello, I love your videos. I tell all of my friends about them. I really love 💕 the way you explain each shot and have a graphic to show the English you are using. This is especially helpful to know when I want to put the cue ball in a certain spot on the table.
The thing I have the most trouble with (as I’m sure most people do) are kick shots. You know, when an opponent sticks you in a place where you can’t see the object ball that you need to shoot at. You must either do a kick shot or a jump shot just to hit the ball and avoid giving ball-in-hand to your opponent. I would really be a big help if you showed us all more ways to get OUT of these tough situations. Also could you explain the different fouls you can have called on you in tournament play and how to avoid them, like a bump shot. Thanks so much for all of the great videos 😁👍Take care, Dee
Great video! Thank you. You know what would be great, if you had a speedometer for each shot to go along with the Q ball, meaning how hard from 1-10 you hit.
You're not the first one who asks for that. I maybe will put it in one video to see you if guys like it :)
Always excellent and I love the What-if it goes too far, too short, etc. Leaving yourself shots is strategy and the KEY.
Thanks man. Yes, strategy makes a huge difference, even if both players have the same level in cue ball control and shotmaking.
As Usual, Great Video Shariv! Thanks!
Another excellent very clear & helpful video from a great teacher.
Thanks a lot Alan. That's nice to hear :)
Thanks again Shivari 👍 Could always get better shape. I'm constantly making it difficult. Getting out of shape, wrong side of ball, speed. I know this information but your videos reinforce my need to practice position 🎱🤙🎱
I love watching your videos, you help so much. Your shot is so smooth, makes it much easier to watch
Thanks Austin. Yes, it developed pretty well compared to earlier videos here on my channel when no one knew me. But still a lot of room for improvement.
Long story short, my local pool hall, tournament ,me okay I'm in, know for sure won't win,65 players, I finished 32, well that's not bad because few weeks ago I won my first game ever.what an improvement,all thanx to you and your videos
That's great news. Congrats mate :)
This is a very simple but useful trick that a lot of pro players also use. Of course we always want to choose a point for the cueball and not an area. But this approach gives us again more margin for error and doesnt require pin point position. Enjoy!
True👍
I've been doing this for years. I call it a back door. You know give yourself a way out if your position is slightly off.

Really like your content man thanks for your hard, work I subscribed, and will look to your videos for tips, I'm in a local pool league this year, super excited
Thanks for subscribing. I hope you reach your goals in the league :)
Excellent stuff, in snooker it's called playing into your next shot, rather than across, hoping that you have played the right strength of shot. It gives you a far greater margin of error.
YOU EXPLAIN THE GAME VERY WELL I HAVE BEEN LEARNING A LOT THANK YOU MICHAEL
Thanks Michael. Great to hear that!
Nice work well Dan
Awesome vídeo. Congrats.
So that's a really great video again. not only an exceptionally good video editing but also a perfect execution. I'm looking forward to your next video. Greetings from heiko
Great Videos and very well explained. Keep em
Coming thank you
You're very welcme. And thanks for your comments Rick!
i really appreciate your videos it helps me alot to learn more thank you very much....
Thanks! This video was very helpful.
You're welcome David :)
Love watching these... Subscribed!
Thanks Johnny!
Hey cool. For some reason I didn't realise you were left-handed. So am I !
Nice work👍
I never quit trying always keep learning
I love your videos
Great video! I wonder if you could do a video on how to play on different types of cloth and what kind of effects different cloth has on the cue ball
Thanks. Well, if I did a video on that topic I would need tables with different cloth to demonstrate it, and that's unfortunately not possible to get.
Helpful again, thank you.
Thanks a lot man,i've learned alt about bringing cue ball at the centre of table....you can score every object ball if cue ball stay at the centre of the table.
You're welcome :)
Thank you. This pre plan give shooters another safe guard built into one shot; offense, defense, multiple choices. A Three way shot.
Hey bro I'm impress not only with your tutorials but also with your skills, you don't seem to miss much or get out of position. So I was wondering how you do in competition. Just curious.
Hi there. Thanks man :) In my opinion I am a strong player who could win a lot more tournaments, but I have one weakness that prevents me from that: My mental game is a disaster. Most of the time I am only able to play around 50% of my actual strength. I know all the mental stuff and tricks. But it's a proccess to gain mental strength, just as learning pool. And I started way too late to work on that part, that prevents me from winning more often.
Love your videos!
Love your content man! I am curious tho do you play in any leauges or Fargo Rated events? What is your fargo rate you are a smooth shooter keep up the videos
Man this is my first session and I really did play good on two team I only lost 3 games out of 20 thxs for the tips
Amazing as always sir! Love your content 😍
Thanks man :-)
Hey man there's this book called 99 critical shots in pool by ray martin. I was wondering if you can make a series covering these shots? I think it would help s lot of people. Thanks
I think I am not allowed to take the shots from the book and just publish them here.
I don't think shots in pool are copyrighted. You should be fine to do them
When you get your new studio up and running, how about a two video series you completing the Billiard University Exam 1 Fundamentals and according to your score in Exam 1, the Exam 2 Skills Bachelor, master or doctorate...
I find these exams very helpful as a structured practice session and would be nice to see you do it!
I never had a look at them. Unfortunately I was and still am not the kind of player who does drills and exercises all the time. Instead I create my own that are exactly the ones I need for my game. But I will think about it. Thanks for the suggestion :)
Sharivari Ok good to know! 🙂👍🏻
Thank you for trying to make my life easier
You're welcome. I hope I did :)
Thanks for the tips!
You're welcome!
Thank you for the help
Thanks for the great vid
Please make a video explaning Efrens Amazing shots.
just saw this video again, seems like everytime we don't want to get pin point position, we automatically choosing a medium shot for next because it need distance to get option for pockets.
Useful video however I was told that u want to visualize 3 shots ahead at least or more if possible so I dont think of patterns in this sense
Depends on your skill level.
He said to think 3 shots ahead in the video. Pros use this and also what they call "longest line approach". He is uses a line that crosses multiple zones for multiple open pockets. In cases when you pocket choice is limited, you would find a line that allows for the largest margin of error when entering the position zone for that specific pocket. Same thought towards widening your margin of error whether it's using multiple pockets, one pocket, or even playing position to play a safety.
I notice a lot of times people have trouble getting back out to center table. They'll get their 3 balls in starting from the outter most ball until they find themselves practically against a rail. The problem is, you're setting up your shots..."too well" because you're trying to leave yourself the easiest set up which is straight in. And when you have a triangle of balls it's easy to just follow the triangle on straight in shots especially if you start with a ball in hand.
I've played enough to know to see this trap and try to escape it before it's too late. Sometimes that means picking a harder shot because you have more of an angle on it which is a smaller slice hit of the ball but you just won't get rewarded if you don't take the harder shot.
However I consistently play against the same guy who isn't as good as I am. And what he'll do is pocket his two easy to get in balls then "intentionally miss" the 3rd as a safety even though he has a clear shot on it. He'll use his last ball to block pockets, or jam it between my stuff in a way that usually gets him a ball in hand because I can't see the few remaining balls of mine that are left because he has so much crap on the table still. and he'll do this technique until the game comes down to both of us having like 2 balls left on the table.
it's like playing against someone who thinks like a chess player. More concerned about how to screw you over than they are making a shot that they should be trying to go for. It's very frustrating when you run 6 balls on the first turn and spend the next 5 turns giving up balls in hands because they constantly put you in a position where the only way to hit your ball is by a magical 3 rail kick.
thanks man I recommend you play with pool players
Thank you!
This will help you in c 8 ball tourneys, but it best to work on getting position you want to run table, because if you clear 3 or 4 of your balls and miss because you had a hard cut, and you playing a good b player you are done. Position is 80% of the game, bad position is why even A players miss rather easy shots... hint play several racks using only center ball or follow, run that table and you are a great position player.
That was good
When you hit high right on the cue ball at 6:43 are you using one tip to the right or half a tip?
Around 3/4 :)
Great
I play pool in my local league despite only being able to use my right arm... therefore no bridge. I am feared within my league/a very good player.
You got the last 3 .. bet anything you want
Yesss
Let me hook you up. In your video their is a font that comes in that says, "Consider to leave a thumbs up." This is bad English. You should say, "Please consider leaving a thumbs up."
Thanks!
As long as you've got English know-how, true. Nothing bad can happen. But what about the player who knows nothing about English? They try making a shot, disregarding position entirely and usually always end up in a bad position.
So you need more than 10min to say: center position is good?!? 😂 thats great
If you think the main message of this video is center table, you should probably rewatch it :)
@@Sharivari well, unfortunatly i did rewatch it and you repeated it several times that the center is the best spot... ?!? and obvious enough, "choose the easiest way" . i am sorry but let me repeat, 10 min is way enough for that conclusion, isnt it? But there is still a chance that i am too stupid to understand the deeper meaning of that video anyway... so what, dont rewatch it anymore.
So apparent center cue ball looking frim stanfing usnt the real center. Its actually a little top i funally fugured our why i never got 90 degree tangent line results. Fml
Why the glove now ? Just curious since I have always seen you without one
It was just too hot with high humidity that day and I didn't want to go to the bathroom every few minutes :)
5 minutes or less and you will get 5 times the views and likes....
There is no trick. Just practice
I need to stop watching these videos I'm not a pro but if you played more than couple of yrs you should know all of this. I need to know what the pros know they are on a way different level I guess just crazy amount of playing is to learn but this is just obvious
The voice does not match the image of the guy shooting. That accent.
Hi, if possible, I will give you an email to give me an email
American pool is shit way too easy. You can miss the pot and it still goes in off the rail english pool is by far the superior game for good players. Pockets are half the size and unforgiven
If American pool is easy how come you never won any pool championship in USA? Come and try if it’s easy like you said.
