Yes - I and many of you could have run out, even with not following these principles, by just making the little tougher positional shots. But I want to show you how to make less mistakes and how to make the game as easy as possible. And you do that by following these principles. If you make these things, I garantuee you will make less mistakes. Enjoy your lesson guys! P.S. Sorry for my pants.

This is the best all round tutorial on the game that I have ever seen.

[@Sharivari]

Thank you.

[@PaulMuimuiSakubita]

Me too. You are the best

[@stevebrown7133]

Awesome video man. I love the cue ball in the top corner showing English.

[@eros2583]

Genius idea it is.

[@johnp966]

The animations and the way you structure your video makes this one of the best pool tutorial videos I've come across. Thanks for taking the time to make this, and your attention to detail.

[@ethanletzer3507]

Nice switch hand shot 😁

[@Omer3601]

Great video. I love the lessons where you show the unsuccessful or non-ideal shots/positions/plays before you show the successful breaks. Really makes things easier to grasp.

[@joseramone9802]

I agree. I also learn something new every time I watch not only your instructions and planning, but just watching your easy going approach to the game. I love your stroke and it helps keep me calm when I play. When I am in a match as opposed to practicing, things tend to speed up and one has to adjust constantly. I'm hoping to run out more. You are not playing the other guy, you are playing alone with what the table gives you. At 74 I'm an average player and have made a comeback from two shoulder surgeries and love playing pool. Thank you so much for your videos, I appreciate them. 😊

[@chasemiller2945]

Best training video I've seen with showing the actual english displayed on the ball.. Thank you for the trouble you put into this video for us.

[@KdeeRebel]

Your videos are making me a better player!! Thank you ☺️ I especially like that you put the box in the corner showing the English .. helps a lot!

[@rokerrite1]

As a beginner your videos are great, easily the best on KZbin, the ball in the corner showing were to hit has helped me immensely thx for the time you take to make all your videos , keep up the excellent work

[@DAmicoDanceHouston]

I watch a lot of videos and this is def one of the best I’ve ever seen. Real life situations showing the common mistakes and how to plan differently. Thanks for all the work you put into the video and thinking the way a little better than average players would think. Super helpful!

[@armandoestebanespinosadiaz7539]

Your videos brought me back to the game after over 15 years retired. I'm now teaching my daughter and your videos making it a lot easier. Best videos on this platform. Thank you. ♥️

[@vkalfabun]

Great video. I now get to know more clues on how to shoot the cue ball in different angles

[@conyersfamily]

I love the way you show us where you hit the cue ball on every shot. That is so very helpful. Thank you for your videos. Subscribed!

[@melaniehirtle8389]

From the top pool couple in NS we enjoy your explanation of the game. Get a chuckle every time you say wideo instead of video. 🙂

[@Sharivari]

Thank you. Haha, it's just so hard for me to say it the right way, because it sounds so wrong compared to German where you say "wideo".

[@melaniehirtle8389]

@@Sharivari now here's a challenge.... We both give lessons here in NS. The hardest thing to do is break someone of bad habits. Love to see you walk up to three players with horrible stance or stroke and FIX them. Beginners are easy.... advanced players with bad habits so hard to FIX! love the game...off to Nationals this week to represent!!!

[@historyprofessor1985]

Sharvari, great and very informative video- all of it! Sorry some of these people were more fixated with your slightly sagging jeans rather than the point of the video itself. Keep up the great work brother!

[@WiskyMic]

Good advice. Theirs so much I have to learn.

[@bwoo404]

THANKS for this tip. I hope to exercise some of what you showed here shortly.

[@KVY_MAJOR]

I've been playing for a couple of months now and discovering this channel has improve my game drastically and my confidence that I know what I'm doing. big ups to you bro!

[@randynorman8700]

I gained about two extra shots and a ton of confidence. Thanks brother

[@coltonwahle4991]

Great video. I loved how you showed English on the ball definitely helps see the development!

[@MrJdsenior]

Good stuff. One thing I would add, is it is preferable to work the ENTIRE initial table backwards or forwards (whichever you prefer, but I find backwards faster and easier, last ball back to the first you'll shoot). This let's you work out key balls to the final (if not rotation, obviously) and key balls to breakouts early on while "insurance" balls are easily obtainable if the breakout doesn't go exactly to plan and a shot didn't come available out of it. It also lets you, IMHO, work out rolling balls up shot lines rather than across them more often (and more easily) to mitigate the "cost" of speed errors, at least, I suspect, until you get to where your patterning capabilities are more automatic (learned). I do agree the 3 ball ahead is a minimum, though, and a good place to start. I like your channel and your explanations. For people commenting they can run out without this, OK, but not as often, and EVERY pro and good amateur level player uses and understands this stuff, and will beat you (almost surely) in the long run pretty much EVERY time. Nuff' said. It's kind of like the other night in league where I got a "MAN, that was a really good shot!" from a guy who is MUCH better than I am (probably an A player, or VERY close). I felt like saying, yeah, it will be nice to get to the point where my positioning DOESN'T require shots like that. If you look around, you can find another source, I think it's Hall's or Massey's clock English technique to understand a lot about the English application/result in a simple to follow format. AND, as for the pants, at least your underwear wasn't riding down....thanks for that! ;-) Liked.

[@lesterweinheimer665]

I've been playing pool for 50 years and still forget some of those basic rules. Like not crossing the line when you don't have to. Thank you . I'm 70 and still learning. Although I played pretty good I still make those mistakes you talked about. So from one German to another you're doing a great job. Keep up the good work and your channel will thrive. Wish you the best of luck

[@rickyhackett4722]

This is information that most of the players I see need. Everyone tries to force the balls to the position instead of rolling to the natural positions. Thanks

[@itguy19]

Thank you for another GREAT video! I greatly appreciate the time you take and effort you put into making these videos. We love the way you explain each shot, how you take the time to show the English used and the chance to figure the challenges out! Please keep up the great work. Thank You !!!!!

[@willquigley]

Possibly the most useful video I've seen. Great job on explaining the principles

[@mathieudavoli2177]

One of the best channel, i’m really glad i found you.

[@markblair9786]

Thank you your teaching help a lot!!!

[@philphil4295]

This is one of the best pool instruction videos period :)

[@gambloduck6633]

This video refreshed my memory about traveling into the line of aim for future shots. This, like all of your videos, are well paced, and visually demonstrated in a way a common person can understand. Grateful that there are people like you who give us an opportunity to learn to think like a great pool player. Thank you.

[@edmetaal104]

I love to see that you played all the options. Thanks very nice!😘

[@Crazeyfor67]

Sharivari has some of the best instructional videos on the web. Each video is concise and informative. Watch, listen and learn. Thanks Sharivari!

[@jvernice]

Hello Sharivari. I am 64 years old have been playing pool all wrong my entire life. I grew up with a pool table in my basement and my friends and I played for fun without looking passed the current shot. I never played position and never practiced. I haven’t played in years and recently bought a table. I have recently subscribed to your KZbin videos and have been working on my game. I really respect the way you play and especially enjoy the way you teach the game. You make it look easy, but I know and can see the countless hours that have been spent to develop your skill. I need to adapt a bit from your methods since I have a spine disease which limits my flexibility. I cannot get down on the ball like I should, but I am beginning to establish a Sight line and muscle memory as I practice more and more. Thank you for your guidance.

[@Sharivari]

And thank you for sharing your story with me! I hope that my videos will help.

[@madmaxc.7650]

p1 & p2 r some common suggestions i could hear from else where, but p3 - p6 are so brilliant and unique, thanks to Sharivari

[@Sharivari]

That great. You're very welcome Kan.

[@stevehsu1116]

I love this video channel. Great work. I love the way you explained in the kicking (mirror system) how it would work and you advised to add your feel in the end. Bravo. Please continue.

[@NIGHTHAWK_0321]

I just started playing APA after not playing pool for a long time and your videos are reminding me of things I forgot and also teaching me things that help a lot!

[@wangchung7786]

These videos are super informative and helpful. I especially like your use of a cue ball graphic with hit target. Keep it up!

[@donsorensen6970]

Picked all three paths,I'm glad my thought process is improving thanks to the great video's. So informative!

[@garymatthews8296]

you're truly informative

[@Avolution33]

Having the target on the cue ball gives the added bonus of showing exactly how to find the proper direction to send the cue ball down the correct line for shape on the next ball...so many instructional videos leave this important information out...I am impressed by your videos and look forward to many more

[@MikeyD22]

Excellent video, thanks for sharing! Your contributions to the game of pool are greatly appreciated!

[@ATrainGames]

Terrific stuff, Sharivari! Thanks for sharing!

[@scottcline4955]

All the videos a great tidbits that get you thinking correctly again. Its very easy to get lazy and dismiss fundamentals

[@laurencefinley9720]

Can't imagine any reason to give this a thumbs down! will keep watching!

[@martywhitman6773]

Great video love how you give us a chance to think of how we would do it first

[@Sharivari]

Thanks a lot Marty! :)

[@poormanintexas]

Another badass video. Keep them coming. Very well produced as well.

[@andreipaval2205]

Great video. Thank you for posting!

[@Deep_Divers]

Great video. Thanks for all the work you put into this and thanks for sharing your knowledge of the game.

[@teewhitt]

Great info. Thank you for your work. Started playing again and your videos have helped me a lot!

[@joelsteinbrunner6110]

Sharivari videos are the best training video's if you want to improve your game- I really like it when he shoots a shot but does not get perfect position - then shows us a better way / shot to get the perfect position. I also like how he shows where he his hitting the cue ball. this is very helpful. Plus his camera work is very good, and easy to follow along with his explanations. Thank you very much for your You-Tube videos I have learned a lot

[@Sharivari]

Thank you Joel. Glad you like them!

[@shadowmoonlee]

Simple and very easy to understand, kudos Sharivari!

[@flipmatyze]

great video on positional play. it definitely helped open my train of thought to see an easier path. awesome work!

[@ryangoesoutside]

Super good vid! I love that you show the mistakes and how to think around them the next time. Also, nice job on the hand switch for the last 10 ball, smooth!

[@handelmotors]

Great video ! My wife and I liked planning our run outs together ! Thanks man!

[@billtube55]

Excellent lesson, great advice. Thanks 👊

[@rawhideleather]

This is one of the best videos on pool there is. I really like the way you approach making your videos & I also really like the way you show your English on the cue ball. Very informative and professional!

thank you another great lesson..i will apply it in my game bro..thank you for sharing your knowledge..ilovethisgame

[@DeeEll86442]

🙋🏼Hello, On that last example the whole time I was thinking that it was a simple runout, nothing fancy to do, just a few stun shots. But when you started making it more difficult than it had to be I thought maybe you were trying to show a better way to do it. But then you did exactly what I was thinking and it made me realize I was right. It's good to know that I had the right mind set all along. What many people don't think about ( I'd love to see you make a video on) is that the easy shot isn't always the first shot you should make, especially when you have a lot of balls tied up or on the rails. Also, could you do more videos on safety play and using kick shots to get out of difficult situations to make a shot? More often in league or tournament play we are put in difficult situations where we need to know how to kick at the ball. I'd like to know how a rail reacts when you use English to shot at it. That kind of video would be so helpful. Thank for another great video, your a wonderful teacher. BTW is that you making the shots in the video? Just curious🤔

[@Sharivari]

Thanks for your comment :) Yes indeed, that's me playing the shots.

[@malinmedia]

This was really great advice and am gonna put it into practice and hopefully with more practice improve my game

[@technowey]

Thank you for this great video.

[@CidKagenouNotShadow]

He actually played my kind of cueball positioning for the last one

[@printosaurus]

Very good advice, presented very clearly and simply

[@ammoalamo6485]

You make fine videos. I like your pleasant attitude, and your short lessons are easy to understand and practice. Thank you for helping understand the principles that make pool easier.

[@udyudy20]

Really love this video. I need more like this.

[@joshuavanheerden4941]

Good Vid. Thanks for the advice

[@raphaelfuhrfritsch1765]

Great video my friend! Thanks!!

[@nico32433]

Very nice! Good work like that deserve support.

[@prodigalparties]

I’m a pretty good player yet these videos are transforming my game. So much good insight. Thank you

[@quinnbaker1935]

Great video! I’m familiar with most of these principles but am really working hard on the “towards the line” one. My instinct a lot of the time is to slow roll shots and go one rail, when often going towards the line can require two rails with side spin

[@julian1471]

Very nice lessons , its always better to learn from somebody brimming with passion , i recognise it and i know for a fact there is so much to learn from you . Thank you !!! By the way you are a very nice player .

[@aymonfrancois1171]

Your videos are great, and really help me improve my game. Please keep going Dude 💪

[@jferengi1]

Thank you. This is very helpful.
