Can The Average Pool Player Beat A Pro!

In this series of videos we take An Average Pool Player (loz) onto the WNT (World Nineball Tour) to see how the average pool player gets on.
Everyone thinks they can play pool (even Loz) 😁
So we put that to the test.
Your Average Pool Player agrees to compete against the pros on the World Tour how will he get on ?
Apologies for crap audio (we are slowly getting there) this will no longer be an issue soon thanks for your patience

Everytime he misses...."Ohhh the average pool player" LOL Great vid Karl.

[@karlboyes7844]

Thank you hahaha

[@brettbarker8444]

😂 I loved that too.

[@itellyouwhy6957]

Love the idea. looking forward to seeing this pan out. This is why pool is a great sport. Not many sports allow your average Joe to play with the best. Golf is only the other. Pro-ams etc.

[@karlboyes7844]

Correct well said

[@petercumberlidge2940]

Great start looking forward to the next episode 😃

[@karlboyes7844]

Thanks! 😄

[@mikescott3808]

We had pros in a tournament in our local pool hall last year Appleton,Gorst, Jayson Shaw , I saw one of our best local players around play shaw and he was winning 3-1 on him and Shaw comes back and wins 7-3 incredible how good pros are they hardly make any errors on position big difference from avg good players

[@shortydancer]

Yo that music during the montage is banging! Very G funk vibes. Love it

[@LaVerdad65]

Awesome series. I dont believe we ever got to see Rollie Williams play in the US Open, so Im excited to see this

[@karlboyes7844]

Same here!

[@thangs]

Your friend is a great sport. Great sense of humor between you two. This one was a lot of fun to watch, thanks for sharing it. Also, thanks for everything you do for pool. I think you're great for the game, Karl. Cheers.

[@karlboyes7844]

Thanks you it will get better also 😄💪🏻

[@deadballPaul]

Awesome video, i loved watching what you thought was important for him to know in a week and glad he was able to beat at least 1 pro player. That means there's always a chance!

[@karlboyes7844]

Thanks appreciate it 😄

[@Tactsu142]

[@karlboyes7844]

Thanks a lot

[@johnmackay3136]

Karl ,perhaps this isn't the place to ask but I was wondering if you can recommend any good coaches in the west of Scotland? Want to improve my game ,there's not much american pool where I play,its all English pool and google comes up blank. Anyway, cheers either way,loving the channel 👍

[@Paul_Abbott_Landsraad_Project]

What a phenomenal idea and series. Loz mate, great effort and hope it went better in Spain. Do you have a channel here?

[@karlboyes7844]

Loz is now onboard with my channel paul, stay tuned as we are about to launch some epic videos

[@AccordionJoe1]

I occasionally play pros at regional peo-am 9-ball tournaments and win more than expected. My strategy is to play safeties whenever I can and if given a shot at a combo involving the object ball and the 9, I go for it. I know this goes against the notion that you only go after the 9 when the percentages are high. FYI, I have won two tournaments so far this year and that was before taking a break for the past 6 weeks. PS-- I am 83.

It's great advice from a pro to beat a pro! It takes effort and practice practice practice to beat a pro!

Fair play for giving average players an insight and a way into the pro ranks😊

No problem 😌

[@4984duke]

I'd fancy my chances winning a couple of racks against Shane Van Boening. Winning a frame of Snooker against Mark Selby not a chance. That's what makes 9 ball pool so fun to watch

[@karlboyes7844]

Nineball is very accessible 💯 💪🏻

[@4984duke]

@karlboyes7844 When I was watching the last two tournaments on sky the world cup and Spanish open. What is the plastic rubber thing under the rack of balls at break. It never used to be there a few years ago

[@anthonykeller5120]

Great video Karl. Obviously great coaching as well. Now teach how to NOT make unforced errors!

[@karlboyes7844]

Stay tuned this series will get out of control hahaha

[@shaunpage4498]

Karl would be set for life if he could teach that.

[@zanethind]

I swear when Efren plays average players he just let's them win

[@footfrek]

It is not in the video but keeping the cue on your chest is the best tip ever. It helps keep a straight stroke and it gets you down on the shot.

[@karlboyes7844]

True story

[@mescellaneous]

that 6 to 7 shot is why i never get the snooker style players. they skimp out on spin for weird reasons. why only left and no draw? is he playing for "any pocket" or did he just miscalculate positioning for the bottom right pocket?

[@karlboyes7844]

Because he’s average hahaha and a plonker

[@chasedavis7231]

To make it even, call ball call pocket and 9 ball last ball

[@EVil-ob8in]

Stopped watching the moment 9 Ball was mentioned 😂

pros are so good on the positional play, it always takes the pressure off the pots, an average player goes out of position constantly and then makes the shots so much harder

[@chrismagallanes7421]

The player can shoot eight trick shots in a row... blow the 9 and lose. On the other hand... the player can get the 9 in on the break... if the balls spread right, and win. *the color of money* Still true to this day

Niceeee

Thank you

[@claytetraindavis2103]

Is he the same Lawrence Thomason that just drew Mario He in the European open?

[@sixcues]

Don't know about Europe but here in the States there are plenty of Amateur players that are definitely good enough to play on the Pro Tour!! They just have reasons that they don't, like they have Families and can't or don't want to do the traveling!! or they already have very good jobs or own their own business that pays them way more than they could ever make on Tour!! some of the Hustlers just want the anonymity so no one knows who they are and they can get Money games for high stakes!!! - CJ Wiley started that way!! Gabe Owen was an Amateur and won the 9 ball US Open in 2004

[@karlboyes7844]

Same over here too

[@davidwright2454]

No chance that he will ever beat a top pro in a match! Virtually all amateurs have no idea about just how much better the pros are- vastly superior knowledge, training, skills, competitive mental edge, etc

[@neverend3r]

Karl, Please get proper microphones! Audio is half the experience when watching youtube.

[@karlboyes7844]

Promise we are, won’t bore you with details of what happened lol

[@dudleyburrow]

Question I'd like to know. Can a Pro Pool player beat an average snooker player at snooker?

[@karlboyes7844]

Good Q, what would you class as an average snooker player ?

[@dudleyburrow]

@@karlboyes7844 a half decent amateur. Someone who could pot close to a century. Maybe a tournament player outside the rankings. Something like that.

[@stefan3225]

I can name a few “average” players who are regulars on the 9 ball tour…yet they would struggle at local open 9 ball tournaments…”average” being under 700 fargo 😂

[@lampham2886]

Billy Thorpe for sure

[@MarksVegas]

An average player can beat a pro player, but the average player can’t play like an average player at the time or the pro can’t play like a pro. In other words, the average player has to shoot well above his skill level or the pro has to have a bad day. Also, obviously there is a huge difference in a 1 game match compared to a race to 5, 7, 9, or higher.

[@johnmackay3136]

After this you need to take a shite pool player LIKE ME ,coach me a bit and see how I do ,just a thought lol

It's kind of hard to define what an average pool player is.

[@davidmellish3295]

Someone that's not a professional, who doesn't make a living from the game. Just an average guy who plays his mates down the pub etc but obviously has a reasonable game

[@RichardsWorld]

@@davidmellish3295 lots of "pros" end up with a losing income at the end of the year, and they disappear to sell cars or windows like Mike Dechaine. Some good or great pool players probably quit because they also gamble and end up losing too much.

[@hbgstorm]

Pool is the only sport/game when you can be a world champion and simply the best of the best ever and you can still lose to an average player if he's lucky and you're unlucky, no other sports are like that tennis , golf, formula 1 , soccer , an average tennis player would lose EVERY EVERY SINGLE TIME to djocovic 6-0 6-0 maybe maybe he can take 1 game NEVER EVER to win the match or even a set.

[@karlboyes7844]

I suppose that depends on the race your playing in pool too

[@hbgstorm]

@@karlboyes7844 11 and even 15 or 17. And pool is also probably the only sport in the world where pro's can beat eachother 11-0 , doesn't even have to be running lots of break and runs just regular bad luck and bad day and you're the world champion and still lose 11-0.
