[@DrDaveBilliards]

Lil Chris, good job with this video. You always pick good topics and present them very clearly with good demonstrations. Keep up the good work.

[@LilChrisPoolPlayer]

Thank you sir! “We aim to swerve!” 🎱

[@Eastcali661]

How would I send you a video to see what I can improve in my pool game I’m a skill level 5 in apa

[@LilChrisPoolPlayer]

@@Eastcali661 You can upload it to KZbin and then provide me a link to it.

[@Eastcali661]

Lil' Chris kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpSZimxrrKyCh80 and I love your channel and always expect when you upload a new video iv learned so much by watching you play

[@dayanandkuseeal1676]

My game is graduating improving after implementing ur teachings . Thank you.

[@woodstockorientalrugcleani430]

I love it. Dig, The Hustler stills. I watch it over and over. I washed a rug for a young woman named Piper. Turned out her father was Brian De Palma, the director of the film, Carrie. Piper Laurie played the mother.

[@GaryColes-fy9zi]

So easy to follow. Great instructions

[@patriotfirst8922]

Chris you are a prophet of pool truly my favorite pool channel

[@sap298]

Coming back to this video for reference, got a 10 ball tournament coming up soon. Hope the move is going well 👍

[@davepotts13]

Nice one Chris. Over the months youve become my number one go-to pool guru on KZbin ... keep up the great videos.

[@shader26]

Nice! Thanks! I’m going for the center cue ball position and going to work on that now.

[@shotbboy]

Made that break and run look easy at the end

[@ipponusmc]

This is a great video. Thank you 💪🙏

[@NicholasLewis]

Very glad to see you posting videos again!

[@marthalavigne1651]

Wow very good shooting and great information!! Keep up the great work.

[@tfeatherly]

Hey lil Chris! Very helpful! Thank you :)

[@mikeboyd21]

So fun to watch!

[@kenclarke8207]

You are the man. Thanks again

[@georgedennis2112]

Excellent video Chris as always. Great insight on ball path off the break. Will definitely practice and observe. Hope you have a great New Year and looking forward to your 2020 instructional videos. Stay well. QA

[@josejoubert4395]

Thank you for your time and expertise

[@joebrown1382]

Interesting the travel of certain balls. Thanks

[@inthepumpkinpatch5383]

Good stuff thanks for sharing I'll definitely be practicing this

[@davehatzakorzian6994]

Awesome video Chris definitely have been missing your videos looking forward to more happy holidays

[@WarrenAckary]

Cheers Chris, another great video on breaking, especially as we have World 10ball qualifiers here in Sydney Australia next month (Febuary)

[@inthepumpkinpatch5383]

I just installed a used cloth on my table my local shop sold me they had it on one of the tables at the shop I only paid $50 for itI thought an interesting topic might be installing a cloth that is been previously installed this is my second installation it went really well I'm very proud

[@zanethind]

Thanks for this Chris. I really needed it. Today I broke a 10 ball rack on the side and it was horrible nothing spread good

[@WheelHouse1of1]

You should do a rail shot vid. Alot of people struggle with rail shots.

[@rogerscottcathey]

Happy New Year. Rack em up!🎇🎉🍾🎉🎇

[@tedflannigan9414]

Not going to lie I watched the first 3min of this video and my break was improved 40%

[@BackwardsBilliards]

Very good information. Happy New Year.

[@sophiantran]

You can also get the Accu-Rack straight from Outsville.com 😁 thanks for the video tutorial, Lil Chris!

[@larryvietvet543]

Great video, a tight rack is essential for a good break. Wondering if your cell cam has 240 frames per second with slow motion?. Slow mo clips would be interesting and educational.

[@josetrevino364]

Great info thanks 😊

[@tuanpa2201]

Happy new year, Chris

[@jrflll]

Great video but as far as the rack is concerned it depends on the rules that are being played by if it’s random or if the 3 and 2 go in the corner

[@darinkravik6851]

LOVE YOUR VEDIOS KEEP UP THE GREAT JOB IN 2020 YOUR FRD.DARIN THE POOL PLAYER ALSO

[@Cloverstang]

Those sound levels in the beginning, but, other than that, I'll take it to the table, and try it out. Thanks :) Got any good drills to work on specific skills?

[@justsaying3594]

Clicked to see the new BK-Rush in action. Maybe next video.

[@wongjiajing3019]

HAPPY NEW YEAR M8 :D 🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆

[@tomburns890]

Great video. It appears a dead on center cue break works the best. I played a million games of 9 ball & used to just break for hours of 9 ball for practice. I had the best results from just off the side rail. I noticed you didn’t hit this 10 ball rack with cue just off side rail. Just that spot have low odds or not nearly as successful as that side rail spot as in 9 ball? Thx

[@LilChrisPoolPlayer]

You can still break from the side rail and try to make the 1 in the side pocket

[@Gradam88]

Hell yeah

[@morganlove6300]

hey bro... ur video is the best... i need some advise... i been playing on a table that is lean for one side an the felt on the table is tear .... i miss most my shots ... thats the only table here for me to play on an the owner na want level it nor change the felt.... can u advise me hw to make my shots...

[@LilChrisPoolPlayer]

For tables that have a lean to them, you just have to practice how hard you have to shoot a ball without losing control, so that the object doesn’t have time for the table to make it lean.

[@albert333pool]

Is there a way to pattern rack the balls to your benefit? 1. On the spot and 2 and 3 corner. What about the other balls?

[@CoffeeCupVacation]

Thanks for the videos. Great series. I'm looking to purchase the same set , Cyclop Zeus pro tournament set. Could I get your opinion on this set? Also what cloth is on your table? Thanks!

[@LilChrisPoolPlayer]

Don't really know a set to compare the Cyclops set to other than Aramith and I like them both. The felt on my table is Simonis.

[@trancus11]

You’ve got funky colored 6 and 7. Never seen that in person. That’s a new thing with pro sets?

[@LilChrisPoolPlayer]

The set of balls I use is the Cyclops Zeus. This set doesn't exist anymore.

[@trancus11]

@@LilChrisPoolPlayer i like the Cyan/Mint better than the Maroon. The Maroon 7 gets lost amidst the 3, 4, and 8 sometimes -especially playing a rotation game. The green apple 6 is nice but the original emerald 6 is very fine too. I don’t go for the pink 3 or tan 7. Your set is nice. I enjoy your videos. The simple bank system really helped me.

[@tristanplays7377]

Is there any pros and cons between your the classic break and the regular break(by that i mean you shoot the one ball sqaure and popping the cueball back to the center of the table) Please answer because i am curious to know

[@LilChrisPoolPlayer]

That's all explained in the video

[@MJH211]

Skyler Woodward said 10b is much easier to break cuz 9 balls track towards pockets. I think called shot 9ball would be the best game to watch

[@bowow0807]

Chris I have a question, in both break methods, are you still aiming as if you're hitting the 10ball?

[@LilChrisPoolPlayer]

On the second way of breaking, since I’m more straight with the 1-ball I’m more focused on the 1-ball instead of the 10.

[@bowow0807]

@@LilChrisPoolPlayer Thanks Chris! Had to take a break from pool for a while since I ended up snapping the ferrule of my cue since I was having a really bad day and because of the holidays, can't take it to the cue repair shop. Gonna have to buy a new tip too since the old one needed to be replaced anyway. Happy New Year to you and yours!

[@privateoffice8203]

Did you know your head moves slightly upwards and to the left hand side just before you play every shot

[@tristanplays7377]

Why can't you break with slight topspin sothat the cue ball can pop off from the head ball like what all pros do in 8 ball,9 ball and 10 ball racks

[@anthonytucker7574]

How about if it's rack your own NO template!

[@LilChrisPoolPlayer]

The template rack allows you to learn where the balls are actually supposed to go if racked correctly. When you're not using a template rack you can still get "close" to a perfect rack, but chances are there might be a gap or two in the rack. This of course would alter the spread of the break, but it really shouldn't be by much. Unless, of course, there are either too many gaps or the gaps are too big to which I would ask, "Why would you rack for yourself that badly?"

[@Elevenwarriors1234]

When did smart racks become a thing. They’re awful.

[@joqqeman]

whats wrong with them
