You use a good model here. Helpful ideas, demonstrated and then putting them together as in a flow of a game. Great job. Do more!

I’m a 2 in 9 ball this helped me as I’m shooting only my third match and seem to always come so close to winning

[@lonniebiz]

Well done.

[@pinayma9062]

Thanks so much for this video! I've always played 8 ball and have only just recently started playing 9 ball but always struggle with my safety shots & overall strategy. But your video has given me so many gold nuggets! Thank you, thank you! I am going to be actively practicing these & incorporating them into my game! Subscribed!🤗

Glad to hear that! Thank you!!

i support this

[@grenavoi]

Nice pace

[@Adam57852]

Thanks for the video! Very helpful. For the 'Karem' shot, does the distance between the cue ball and the 1 have to be the same distance as the 1 ball to the 9 ball for that angle trick to work where you measure the halfway point?

[@brett6314]

Nice thought process. I've been playing 8 ball for two years but I'd like to start playing 9 ball. Our league, APA, has 1 point for each ball potted and 2 for the nine. I like the idea of winning right away but seems like to modify your strategy would be to take a couple down first, then play safe with maybe the 4 or 5 by the 9. Winner is first to 25 points so getting a run or playing safe seems like the way to go.

[@johnmatheson5748]

Is it considered chicken shit to take a combo at the 9 ball to win the the game rather than run out the balls in order to shoot the 9 ball last?

[@johnhoey6512]

First of all the balls should all be touching tightly racked. If they are not someone doesn't know how to rack the balls.

[@francker5510]

When you were talking about the angles for caroms, would practicing or being familiar with the cue ball tangent line give you the same result?

[@basementbilliards4062]

Kervens, yes practicing tangent lines would immensely help the accuracy of your carom shots. Thanks for the comment

[@gregoryhector4496]

What state are you in?? If nyc can I come get some lessons Please?

[@robertrubin4454]

If you call the 9 ball on a rotation ball and make the rotation ball but not the 9 ball do you still go

[@kchiang4]

Dude, I can tell you're an amature. The way you get excited over combos and prioritizing them...

[@kylefraser4280]

Break towards the gap, not away from it.

[@yazantak7447]

Thank you very nice but asmeter in the translation in Arabic
