Came to ask what size pockets your table has, but I saw another comment with the answer. What size pockets do you think are best for one pocket? And do you think there should be any difference between money games versus tournament play tables? How about any thoughts on diamond versus Brunswick? Thanks so much for all of the content! Your page is a treasure trove for anyone really trying to learn the game 🙏🏽💚✌🏽

Always inside english. Watch the spin on the cue ball. It will tell you all you need to know about the hit. Thank you for watching my videos.

I would title this "One Pocket Break-out Shots". I came in needing help with my 1p break. I just cannot find a comfortable one that is consistently good. Most important shot and I fail more often than succeed to get a good break.

The one rail bank in corner. Show how shoot it 3 rails. When both balls are balls with off the rail. The first bank was the frozen on rail? I've made it once.

I learned this from John Brumback's video but he hits it with a slightly elevated cue and hits the cue ball higher almost like a masse shot. The cue ball doesn't draw but kind of crawls sideways. Maybe that's better for bank pool and your way may allow you to hit the shot softer.

Chris, that's not likely to happen these days. I'm 70 years old now and well past my high level playing days. I teach almost exclusively and love it. That said. If you had been around the US Open 1 Pocket Championships in Kalamazoo around the late 80s you could have seen me beat Scott. And if you had happened to be at the DCC in the mid 2Ks you could have watched me beat Tony in one of the later rounds. I got 7th losing to Jose Parica afterwards. I should have won that match but ran out of gas towards the end. Let the new guard take over the reins. I"ll help them do it if they come looking for my help. You too. I'm now offering virtual lessons. Your home to mine.

Mr Tom I'm just curious .. What Kinda pool Cue and Tip do you use and What's the ( mm) of your shaft ? I'm thinking about getting a 11.8 mm carbon fiber shaft but I'm not sure How they play ..
@onepocketagameofcontrolled36463 жыл бұрын
Chris, I have been using the same cue for 24 years. It is a Plain Jane Tad. The shafts have narrowed down from 12.7mm to now about 11.7mm. I just had a new shaft made with a graduated beginning at 12.4 at the edge of the ferrule. The tip is a medium soft kamui. I can't use low deflection shafts. I'm too old school and can't learn that new trick. LOL

I do have one question… What’s a professional one pocket player?.. Say a guy like me, who isn’t the greatest player ever, but seems to get the cash all the time… Do I qualify?..
@onepocketagameofcontrolled36463 жыл бұрын
Good question. I suppose some people would say yes. You may think you are, and maybe you are. My loose definition of a professional at any field would greatly be determined by whether this happens to be your main source of income.

Not sure of the angle, but I like choice 2, but I’m trusting the 2nd ball will be pretty close to my hole if I make one, and I’ll get a shot on it… And I’m playing my cue ball to the back rail.. I’ll cut at the spot ball from there, worst case, and have a great shot at getting them all.. Pro chooses 2 as well, and finds the side rail, as you tried to do..
@jacobjones52693 жыл бұрын
Also, the way you shot it makes me believe it’s possible to get real aggressive here, shoot the 2nd shot with speed and go 3 rails with the cue ball… Probably low on the foot rail ball.. You may sell out a bank or you may get a sweet double kiss if one of the balls doesn’t go in clean.. There are pros who would shoot that needing them all.. I might shoot it if it laid real nice..
