WOWSER! APA 8 Ball League against the OWNER!

[@drjay73]

Josh, you do a great job with this channel! Sometimes when watch pros get perfect shape on each shot, they make it look so easy until you try it yourself! You and Eric are both damn good but it's nice (from a viewer's perspective) to see how you both react to the occasional mishaps where things didn't go exactly as you planned. Because we ALL make those same mistakes and we can definitely relate!

[@Amateur_Pool]

Thanks, jay.. i started this channel because i wanted to watch more amature matches and, the only ones i could ever find were the apa finals so, i started making my own!

[@raelynnclinard]

had one of those matches last night where nothing was going right for me... played a 6 as a 9 and she was up 22 to 18 but I was able to recoup and bring in the W as a 13-7 win. def started ROUGH! good content sir, keep it up L'il Timmy!

[@Amateur_Pool]

Great job on the comeback!

[@raelynnclinard]

@@Amateur_Pool ty sir!

[@jacobbarnhart5869]

bro the 6th sense thing bro! that hit man. best part of the vid, sometimes u can feel it that they will make it. you quitly put you pool stick on the claw hahaha

[@Amateur_Pool]

For sure! I think we are picking up on the confidence level of the opponent.

[@Michael-mp8hh]

Dana, two trips is pushing the envelope just a touch. Of course worth the wait.

[@Amateur_Pool]

LOL

[@anthropomorphicOrange]

Eric is a great shot. You should show more games with him.

[@Amateur_Pool]

Ya, i enjoy playing him also!

[@darkxander96]

Which cue do u have? Looks awesome!

[@Amateur_Pool]

Thanks! I shoot with a Cuetec True Wood 2

[@mikethomas4570]

I enjoy watching 2 good 7s as much or better than pros. Good commentary and humor as always! 👍

[@Amateur_Pool]

Thanks, Mike! I appreciate the support

[@wesguitarra91]

That massé shot Eric did was sick

[@robertvasquez1845]

You see how Josh even tried to get a better view?😂😂

[@Amateur_Pool]

Ya, that shot was so good!

[@Amateur_Pool]

lol

[@jesseellis946]

Love the channel! Little Timmy said "Let's GOOOOOO" you know.

[@Amateur_Pool]

Lol, thanks, Jesse! I appreciate that support, ya know!

[@TommyPD26]

Enjoy your videos. As a former CPA player (Canadian version of APA) they are very relatable. Question for you, what size tables are you playing on?

[@Amateur_Pool]

We play almost exclusively on 7ft tables. Occasionally i play on 9ft tables but, not for league. I have a money match video (should be out tomorrow) that i played on a 9ft diamond table.

[@hank6887]

Hey Josh I wanted to thank you for the last video on were to break , I really moved the balls around on the table , I'm watching this one as I type lol I greatly appreciate it you examine the shoots very well .and thanks for taking your time on making your videos.

[@Amateur_Pool]

No problem Hank! I appreciate the support and I'm glad that you're digging my videos! Thank you

[@ClutchCarson]

Always a blast. I got a Fast rack 8-ball tournament tonight, Ill try to emulate the "9-ball" Josh, and not the "8-Ball" Josh. lol I'm thinking that that one 9-ball bobble in the other game was all it took to give Eric super powers. (never open a can of spinach for your oppopent) haha

[@Amateur_Pool]

lol, well said! That and, I know he didn't want to lose on film, 2 times in a row. he really turned it on for that 8 ball match!

[@jkittelsen]

Wow called me out, Nice. dont think I have seen my wife laugh that hard since...well this is a family friendly show so. As always I really enjoyed the match and your sense of humor.

[@Amateur_Pool]

Lol... i thought you'd get a kick out of it! 😆🤣

[@bubbalands]

The best shot of the match and Eric got in the way

[@Amateur_Pool]

Lol, i know, right! That was a sweet shot

[@wdiddy1]

He shot lights out!

[@Amateur_Pool]

Ya, he wasn't about to lose 9 and 8 on film! He played great!

[@JamesWells513]

Definitely like little Timmy over little Jimmy!😂😂

[@Amateur_Pool]

lol

[@traggik3]

Really enjoy watching your videos, shouting out from U.S.V.I, St. Croix, keep it up and keep on stroking!

[@Amateur_Pool]

Awesome! Thanks for watching. I KNOW your weather is better than mine here in Michigan!

[@timscott178]

definitely a big difference from 9ball to 8ball with Eric - good try lil joshy you'll get em next time

[@Amateur_Pool]

Can't win em all, i suppose! Thanks, Timmy! 😁

[@benonablacksmith454]

I really enjoy your content. Thank you!!!

[@benonablacksmith454]

I could swear I was subscribed. The KZbin algorithm is working in your favor. All your videos are show up in my feed.

[@Amateur_Pool]

Thanks! I'm glad you are enjoying it. Also, I'm glad YT is doing the right thing and putting my videos out, lol 😆

[@hank6887]

You keep the game real josh, I broke great but shot bad last night ,I completely understand brother , crap happens sometimes.

[@Amateur_Pool]

Yup.. just one of those matches. Thanks, Hank

[@stefan3225]

APA is make it - take it? I guess that’s another reason all the shade gets thrown at APA players. Gaffy rules 😂

[@Amateur_Pool]

lol, ya... the APA rules kind of blow but, I love the format they use for matches

[@mhuka4541]

I hate those games when you know what to do but is just doesn’t do what it was supposed to, it’s always those hit too hard or too soft shots

[@Amateur_Pool]

Yup... seems like nothing works, lol

[@Itmerock]

if I had a dollar for every time I make a tough shot and freeze the cue ball on another ball, I'd be filthy rich. Worse feeling in the world 😂

[@Amateur_Pool]

lol, so true! I hate it

[@robrobinson2672]

Your vids are awesome bro... you should make a shirt that says arithmetic.. lol it would be legendary... Go Bucks

[@Amateur_Pool]

you had such a good comment going, all the way up until you said go bucks, lol :)

[@robrobinson2672]

I had to.. from the buckeye state... All jokes aside you do great job really love all you vids.. keep it up bro.. hope we can play a match one day.. in the APA to it's super fun

[@Amateur_Pool]

@robrobinson2672 your not far. Since your a buckeye fan, I'm assuming your near Columbus?

[@robrobinson2672]

Little East of C-BUS..town called Newark... Our team in APA is ( beer me) lol we based out of bar called the hub.. we got one more game this session.. hope we make playoffs.. lol not looking good tho

[@cj-ef1rp]

Jimmy says: “🤭”

[@Amateur_Pool]

lol

[@cj-ef1rp]

You know I was merely obeying your instruction to “Don’t say anything Little Timmy” when you missed that sitter. We’ve all done it, but only you are brave enough to post yours on YT. 🫡

[@jackdad7411]

You have way more skills then you showed us today. Eric didn’t have to bare down to much to beat you. Next time his guard will be down at the start, and by the time he realizes your serious, it will be to late!

[@Amateur_Pool]

Appreciate the kind words!

[@michaelnelson3568]

It's tough when you're out of stroke. Oh, and hi Dana! Lol She looks like a lot of fun to party with.

[@Amateur_Pool]

never really hung out with her, outside of league but, she's a blast LOL

[@danp6101]

Hey Josh. I think Your brain was still stuck in 9 ball mode. Try going to the bathroom and splash some water on your face. Don't think about the match try not to leave any negative thoughts creep into your brain. I know that's easier said then done. when you get to the table and it's your shot just think about that shot. Don't overload your brain with trying to strategize the runout within a few shots you should be able to start to plan out the runout.

[@Amateur_Pool]

Great advice! Thanks

[@shereemcniel-coakley262]

Good game

[@Amateur_Pool]

Thanks!

Great job with the video. Sorry you didn't win, we all have nights where it is not your night.

[@Amateur_Pool]

It happens! Can't win em all, as much as we'd like to

[@Lumberjack1991]

Hey josh, hope your weekend was good. My tourney team got screwed last weekend. Thinking I might reach out to national.

[@Amateur_Pool]

Dang man! Seems like there's always some drama in the APA

[@Lumberjack1991]

@@Amateur_Pool yeah, well when the TD doesn't follow their own rules it just makes it all bad.

@@Lumberjack1991 i agree!

Can't win them all Josh! Even though you been strokin!

ya, Eric played great in that match

Yo! Pool is nowhere near the hardest sport my main man! No disrespect brother but surfing is way way harder to learn and do and I can say that with confidence as I have done most sports including skydiving, hang gliding, high tower diving, skateboarding, golf, tennis, table tennis, hockey, football, rugby, badminton, OMG just to name a few!

[@anarchysocial6447]

Would love for you to show us how easy pool is

[@justtowatch111]

@@anarchysocial6447 Did you not read my comment? Nowhere there did I say pool was easy fella so hold up with the shit. I think I do actually have a video up running out a drill but don't choke yourself out on it.

[@Amateur_Pool]

I'm not referring to the physicality being difficult. Pool comes down to millimeters. The difference between a high level play and an average play is literally the smallest movements you can imagine. We'll agree to disagree on this one! 😁. I appreciate you!

[@justtowatch111]

@@Amateur_Pool No worries mate! I play pool and have done for 48 years and I have surfed for 43 years and surfing is way harder. If you only measure difficulty by millimeters then darts, archery, shooting would all have to be harder but you know, you already know! Shush Timmy. Sports that require you to be aware that you could die if you stuff up are more difficult because not everyone can even START those sports. No real danger in going into a pool hall and shooting some racks. I'm subbed to your channel my friend and I like, VERY much, your videos but you are just so wrong saying that pool is the hardest sport when it is not.

[@Amateur_Pool]

@justtowatch111 i could be wrong but, I'll never admit it, ya know! Lol.. either way, i appreciate you!
