"Here we are 50 minutes later". Happens to even the pool demi gods, too, I guess. Nice when you guys are honest and open about this stuff, as you seem to ALWAYS be. It is a good character trait. ;-) This 'drill' looks both fun and very profitable. It is nice when such practice isn't always stuff that is so boring it tends to make your eyes cross, as some of the practice that works specific areas of difficulty hard sometimes is. Necessary, but tedious. One of the best parts of these videos here is when you go through your thinking process, especially when a problem arises. The 'good things could happen ifs' are extremely important to learn, as everything in pool is calculating percentages and then executing the plan properly, when you get down to it. And both seem to be of nearly equal importance, at some rising level of proficiency. The contact point graphic is an excellent example of a picture is worth a bunch of words, as well, and totally innocuous to the flow of the video. That works really well. Your walking back reaction on the straight in result on the second to last ball was funny. You could read in the, "Well, there's 15 more minutes of my life gone trying to finish this video'. Rest assured, if that runout were my goal, the time frame would be more like a month, or maybe longer.
Usually when I play the one pocket ghost, I use a cut break where I cross the rack. At least on the equipment I’ve played it on, it tends to open up balls without extreme clusters but can still favor 1 pocket. Love seeing this kind of content on your channel my friend.
Hi Niels! I have been playing one pocket for only a couple years now and love the game, it’s really all I wish to play these days. I can confirm that cue ball control definitely goes way up after a while only having one pocket to score in. My banks have been improving as well. My only critique for this drill is that I wouldn’t want to practice a break that consistently puts a ball in front of my “opponents” hole. I’d probably forget which was which under pressure and sell out a shot in a real match! Keep up the good work 👍
Love your stuff. But on your first rack you kept referring to the 12, but isn't the orange stripe the 13? And some of the cue ball English visuals seemed backwards. Just some feedback. (Maybe I'm seeing it wrong. Or it's the curse of the purple 5/13...)
I really want to see you play snooker. I really want to hear your opinon on how do you feel about shooting, what's different etc. I think finding out about snooker from a pro billiard player is really interesting.
