That “pop and stop” break definitely sets the tone! You’re the first person I’ve seen to really explain the benefit of it! Bravo 👏
Thanks a lot max
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife can you please explain, if you are ultimately hitting the cue ball above Centre, why do you (and most other pros) aim so low on the cue ball during the practice strokes ?
By the way, Great video, and love your back stage access content during the matchroom events!
Keep up the good work !
@@MrAseemgrover I believe what he's doing is similar to a jump shot but a very microscopic one. You elevate the cue and drive the ball into the table, which makes it fly, bounce up off the pack and land in the center. Flashy but probably not easy to stay consistent with all this body movement. I'm wondering if there is a good 10ball break among pros that doesn't require elevated cue.
@@Krushard I agree, the elevation does give the shot a jump shot like feel. But even then, during the practice strokes, I’d still like to be aiming where I will hit the ball. Above Centre in this case. And that’s what I’m confused about
@@MrAseemgrover You can aim where you want to hit if you stay still but then it's less power. Once you start throwing your body into the shot the cue tip will do this sketchy movement naturally, because of the long swing. I'm still not entirely convinced it's the best way to break tho, the extreme of it would be de Luna's wild Mortal Kombat blow: looks good, rarely works.
Man, your videos are terrific, you cover every aspect of the subject and you explain it better than most, you are a great instructor. Keep 'em coming!
Thanks mirza 😀 trying to explain it like I’m talking to my daughter lol 😂
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife And that is exactly what most of us need :D
One of the best 10 ball break tutorial videos I have seen. I never played 10 Ball but if I do in the future I will definitely take note from this video. The song at the start is class.
Thanks Thomas appreciate it
Excellent explanation! Tested this today and actually managed to pull of my first ever 10-ball break-and-run! Pool life!
Congrats bro small steps you got this
#poollife
It’s the foot on the table on the “10” break for me😂😂😂😂
Kinda like it myself hahaha
How’s life buddy ?
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife I’m just staying out the way pal. You got some Good content 👍🏾👍🏾
I'd like to see more 10 point breaks on TV with that foot technique.
ok got it THE CAPTIAN MORGAN BREAK......
Good presentation the most important thing about how SVB breaks is where his right hand is located on the cue it gives you more control on the cue at half of the power you can generate you explain breaking very well keep up the good work
Karl your an awesome guy for making almost a 10 min video on the 19 ball break and his to break like Shane when we all know it took Shane 10,000 hours of practice to get it 😂😅. Thanks for giving us hope man 😅. It's also fitting that you use Shane's break cue for this video 👍👏
🤣🤣🤣
My own tip: always focus more on hitting square on the 1 ball. Spin, elevation, or even power, all come afterwards.
Great tip I like it
Karl loved the video, I've been struggling a lot with my 8 & 10-ball break, I've lost count of how many "break like a pro" videos I've watched on YT. You're the first to explain the importance of bridge hand elevation resulting in a higher angle on the cue and hitting down into the cue ball. One thing I'm trying to find more information on, is a more thorough explanation of weight transfer with the lower body. If you have time, would be a great video.
Also, l loved the look on your face when you were getting ready for a level "10" break :)
Thanks a lot karl ! You really helped me
To this day nobody has said how true the quote on the mosconi cup interview was by this man.. “ I’m Just a ZOOKEEPER” 😂😂😂 just want to thank you Karl cuz I will forever use that going forward in my life.. Along with this great Break
Love the themesong
A pro explainig pool in an educational but entertaining and often funny way! Hope you get the 4k subscribers soon! Love your channel, thanks Mr. Boyes!
Thanks a lot johannes
A thing of beauty! Love the pool life song! 😊 very good tips in this video.
Thanks pal
Just started playing 10 ball. this helped out TONS. Thanks as always for your content!
No problem DW 💪🏻
randy crawford sang street life great videos karl boyes
Best video ever about breaking! Never thought that the elevation has such an impact! And speed demonstration is great 😅
I like the 10th power foot on the table break. Hilarious 😂
Very informative. Thanks much Karl. Lovely to get such tips and tricks from a former pro player.
Thanks robin hope your well
Very informative video Karl. Thanks, Keep up the good work.
Thanks syed
Been looking for theeeee SVB break instructions video. You nailed it lad!!! THANK U‼️
this is what i needed. the one piece that fails me is my break. thank you.
No problem Joseph
Yes it’s a good song. Very catchy
Thanks bro
With the 10 speed break I think ending with your foot on the table would be a foul. TOO MUCH POWER. LOL.. Great info, thanks.
No hablo inglés , pero fue más claro que cualquier explicación jajaja...crack!!
Loved how easy you explained it, now I have practice to to…
Good video. I have been thinking a lot about this lately and intend to work on it after the virus thing is over. I wonder why pool players rise up as they are breaking. I know it's all about timing and being in the right position for the contact of the cue ball. It seems to me a more consistent and powerful break would be to line up, rise to a more elevated position and then pull the trigger on the break. (less movement) If you compare it to say an underhand softball pitcher. They do not start the pitch from a crouching position, but stay standing upright to get the most powerful throw. IDK, maybe I will revolutionize pool breaking.
Sounds intriguing 🧐
They rise up bc it's hard to get a long back stroke while standing and also bc it helps to get power from allowing the elbow to drop.
Yes Pool life is fantastic.
Make a video on how spaces in the rack can affect the break. Like, what are the pro's looking for in a rack when they are inspecting the rack. And how you would handle small spaces?
Amazing mate, thank you so much .
No one breaks in 10 ball quite as well as Shane imo. People say Fedor has a good break and he does but when it comes to 19 ball I only ever think about Shane's break. Arguably the best breaker with the most consistent power and acurracy on his break. It's always fluid
Thank you so much bro
Could u explain about grip and grip arm
Well detailed, good job best I've seen so far
I like to break from the center in 10 ball. I think Shane breaks from the center as well and thats why I started breaking from the center when I was learning.
He’s the master at it
Another top video... Cheers man.!
Thanks pal
Nice one Karl, can you make a video of how to break with 15 balls or do you use the same principles and positions?
Pretty much same yes but il do one at some point 😊
Great video. Thanks a lot 👍🏼
No problem Aziz 💪🏻
Hey Karl, nice Videos so far from you, Thank you. i have a question, how much space do you have to the wall in the back where you breaking, outside rail to wall. thank you
I have 6ft but they say 5ft is enough pal
Great video I had no idea about bridging to low and I have an issue with scratching in the side! Thank you!
Let me no how you get on this a fix for sure
Yes Mo works the same try it out and let me no
Thanks Karl this helped so much I won my match 6-0 and didn’t scratch on the break once. I did send a few cue balls off the table warming up 😂
😂😂😂
Super cool intro and lots of good tips, thank you.
Good video Karl, once again you explain things very well. My problem is I can’t get interested in 10 ball, I play 7,8,9 ball games, I play 14.1 I just have an extreme dislike for 10 ball. 🤷
That’s a shame Peter I don’t mind it tbf
Good video Karl. I do like the elevation information. Greta stuff.
Thanks a lot Shannon
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife I was waiting for the part where you just move the cue ball 5 inches in front of the head string to get a little closer.
@@Spronkadunk 😂😂😂😂😂
thank you so much
Karl "Im retired im not that good" Boyes
Thanks for the input 😃
Can you put the foot in Slow Mo on the 10 break so funny love it
🤣🤣
Great video as always.I’m waiting for that juggling video😂
Wow I should of put that in hahaha
Great video. I will definitely practice this. Is that the Cuetec Breach break stick? What is the weight?
It is Eric and it’s 19oz
When you pop the break, do you hit above the center of the cueball? So you start off aiming at the bottom and when you stand up and level the cue the point of contact is above the centre of the cueball ?
Just watching this before a 10-ball tournament in 2 days. Last minute realisation that I have no idea what I'm doing. 😆
🤣🤣🤣
What tip is on your braking cue? Which one is it? TAOM or White Diamond by Piconi? And I think that SVB is breaking more in the neighbourhood of 7 if we talking about power...
Oooo good Q think it’s TAOM bro
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife good one! I have White Diamond on my jump cue. both are great choices. BTW Thanks for the pool table video. You kept your promise!
That 10 break tho 🤣🎱💥💨
😂😂😂
Hey karl...great video ,can u do 8and 9 break for us
Hey bro there’s a 9ball video on my channel, cut break version at moment
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife this completely transformed my break! Tried it after watching and am pocketing 1-3 balls every time with the cue ball in ending in the center of the table with little effort 👏👍
Subscribed!
Best tutorial 🤩💪💪💯💯💯👌👌
8:15 power no. 10 just like JEFF DE LUNA BREAK with lifting his leg. Also right after bending his breaking cue 😂😂
If you watched any of the Michael Montgomery Memorial 10-Ball Mini Tournament, I hope you noticed that the means for an effective break shot was Pattern Racking. Pattern Racking is a means of fixing the rack for the object balls to be placed in a radius of a desired location. If you pattern break a patterned rack, it can be seen as a method of "fixing" the rack.
Check out our video mosaic of James Aranas pattern racking and breaking at the 2021 MMMT 10-Ball tournament
Read the info on the video as well as it details a mathematical paper we are publishing on why Pattern Breaking is a skill; but, why pattern breaking a Patterned Rack is the same as cheating and should be universally banned from the cue sports.
I can’t get on Board with pattern racking that’s why I didn’t even mention it, I just want people to break better and pop that cueball 🥳🥳
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife I was really happy to see that you didn't mention it in this video. You have always been a fun player to watch from Mosconi to the RUclipss. Keep the great content coming 😊
Thanks poolstats appreciate the love ❤️
Do you ever try using english (High or low) to break 10 ball? I have found that using different english on the cue ball when breaking softer, you can make the 2nd row of balls easier. Im not as accurate for a powerful break! I would love to know your thoughts!
Interesting 🤔
I personally don’t as I’m a huge fan of trying to get the pop n stop on the Cueball, think it’s look easy on the eye and once dialled in it works amazing, I must take a look at this spin break
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife I've found that hitting higher on the cueball causes the 2nd row balls hit below the side pockets and using draw causes them to go a bit above the side pockets. Let me know what you come up with!
Where i should keep my eyes before i hit the cue ball for any break shot??
I’m a cueball player
Audio is much better!
Well still not 💯 however think I’ve sussed it for next vid hahaha
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife Nils uses a microphone as did Randy Crawford who sang Street Life
Hey Karl, I'm definitely back with a couple of questions or solidification on both hand placements on the break. Bridge hand higher yes, raise your stroking arm up and aim down the shaft like using the bottom of a triangle? Aim point on the cue ball is low like a draw shot? Then after making the visual on the apex ball (aiming center on the object ball), a few practice strokes if needed then final follow thru place the tip just above center and follow thru? I'm hoping those questions make sense?
Final question, please... why are you not competing? I'm in the U.S., but I'm a fan no doubt...... if you're willing to share. Casey McCoy on FB..... Once again I appreciate you!!!!
Hmmmm a little lost with it hahaha, when you strike the cueball your wanting a centre just above hit, high bridge hand creates the pop, which ultimate avoids scratching in the side, however takes lots of practise 😀😀
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife Thank you, Americans our English can be a little hard to understand at times....lol
"...if this is a 10... ". LOL. That was a 25. Very good video. Contains tips not book instruction.
Great Video Details .....You Got A New Subscriber...
Thanks Jesus 💪🏻
great video karl
Thanks Tom
Quick question, what size balls are you using on your magic rack there? assuming it is a magic rack? I recently got mine from germany and my balls dont sit right on it and I'm assuming it because theyre either to big or too small. I am new to billiards so all these different variables confuse the hell out of me. Great video as always.
2 n 1/4 inch bro
@Karl Boyes well that is clearly my issue then lol! I've got a magna rack coming and hoping they'll solve my racking issue, is there anything similar to the magic rack for smaller balls?
Do most pros break the same for 10 and 8 ball? (Besides the second ball 8 ball break) I 99% of the time play 8 ball, with a few 9 balls sprinkled in there when i'm bored. And my break is very inconsistent. When i try and do a power break, placing the cueball one or two ball spaces away from the center, i can pocket balls more often, but i have no cue ball control. The cue ball jumps off the table some of the time aswell. I guess my question is can you get a good pop on the cue ball and make balls when you break softer(70-80% power)?
Thanks again for all the tios Karl. Would love to see you do some 8 ball break and runs, and go through your thought process. (P.s. sorry for the essay 😂)
I will do that for sure, I have done few pointers on 8ball if you have not seen the video take a look, also yes 70/80% is ok, your not hitting the head ball full enough so Cueball flying off the table, work on hitting it square a lot softer and increase power once you become better at hitting it full 🙂
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife this helps alot. Thank you. Next time i have access to a table i'll give it a try.
Killin’ me with that “if you’re feeling fancy, finish with that Filipino leg” 🦵
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Why do you aim or have your tip low on the table like you are cueing low? And where do you end up hitting the cueball? Thanks Pal.
Because I stand a little higher so it makes it awkward to aim where I want to, good Q tho you would think you would aim where your hitting a lot of players do this too weird right hahaha
Great Videos!!
What do you do when you get it to pop up, but not POP back?
Aim down on cueball, so raise your bridge hand 😁💪🏻
I Break off the Rail all the time ( Speed 7 ) ... I Set the cue ball 3 balls off the Rail . I can Pop the cue ball pretty High
I’m getting consistent pop, in some cases jumping so high it comes off the table and often into the side pockets. Should I be elevating the bridge hand even further?
Hard to access without seeing it but try raising a little higher so the cueball doesn’t scratch it arks past the centre pocket
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife thanks for the reply! Ya I got enough pop I’m sure, but can’t get it to arch past the side pockets...
If I elevate higher I just get a higher pop...
Great videos! Very insightful.... again, why are you not playing in the professional circuit anymore? Any plans to start back again? (Mickelson just won the Masters at 50...just saying ;) )
Hahaha 50 not there just yet hahaha
Nice videos.
Nice explained pogi
Can use that for 9 ball?
excellent video, just one question, Why did you stop playing?
Hated playing In poor events
Tyler styer 10 ball pop break is near Shane’s at least in my opinion
did you retired from professional pool already?? anw great video as always :D
Yeh I’m media man now hahaha
Why would a lot of guys switch from the middle and break from the side like the World 10 ball this past year ? Is it a matter of no template rack ? Funny enough Kaci won breaking from the middle .
Hi Karl, any tips for breaking at English 8ball please?
Wasn’t that 10 strength break more De Luna than SVB??🤣🤣
It was indeed hahaha
less than mike dechaine
“ The Philippine Break” 😂
You deserve a Boyes edition table .
Just seen that cue ball rolling down my street outside from that 10 break 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣sorryyyyyy
So I play in a ghost league, it started with 9 ball, 12 months ago, (tyler styler played in the pro division) I only ever played 8 ball before, got a pretty good 9 ball game now, I entered the 10 ball this week, biggest problem straight away is the 2 and 3 being stuck bottom table after the break and the 1 ball up table, any tips? (I’m from Manchester, hook me up! 😂
Yeh move the 2 and 3 behind the one ball 💪🏻💪🏻🤣🤣
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife 😂
Is it the same for 8-ball? And did you say we should use a 5 speed?
My favorite thing about pool is I can watch all these videos yet still go to a table and miss every other shot lol. Gotta simply hit a million balls
🤣🤣🤣🤣 made me chuckle
That "10" was really funny Karl 🤣 but why do you aim so low when the point of contact is slighty above centre ball or even higher? I see most pros do that as well but I keep miscueing with the elevated bridge.
Can smell a video
What's your golf handicap mate?
8.2 but I feel that a little keen at the moment
That is exactly my mistake, I put the cue too flat.Do you put some top spin or is center ball?
I see some Titleist clubs. What’s your handicap?
Was 12 or 13 before lockdown so guessing 36 now hahaha
Very good information. It is critical to know and understand the break, and what happens during it. I spend a lot of time practicing the break, and sometimes get teased a bit for it. So... yes, I do have questions!!
1. Is this break technique just for 10-ball? Or can it be applied to other formats as well?
2. Why do you want a pop on the cue ball? What purpose does the pop serve? It looks like you got a good enough break with a level cue.
Love the intro. Needs more metal tho. ;)
Hello 😀
1, it works great for 8ball buddy
2, the pop looks sexy 😀 and it help ark past the side pockets for when you don’t it a clean head on hit with the 1ball
3, metal 🙀
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife Thank you for the response!!
Now show us how the hell to jump with side arm action! No matter what I can’t seem to get head/chin on cue doing that way. Of course I know I don’t “have “ to do it that way but it’s looks “sexy” as you say😀🤷♂️
Sexy pool Rick 😀😀🥳
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife hell with winning or losing! It’s how you look😜
I often go "10" when i watch some dudes play good in pool center
Hi Karl. Does this apply to 8-ball and 9-ball break as well?
Yeh bro pretty much
Can you consistently end up with foot on rail in every level 10 speed break?😀
Frank Sinatra
Can you also explain in detail on how exactly do you aim.... I tried several methods and still hit and miss
I would look at a spot in the distance bro, even other balls behind the head ball, when you hit a good break log down where you was aiming etc hope this makes sense
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife Normally I noticed one thing that Pro players do not discuss often on how they process or keep in account factors while they aim certain ball to a certain pocket in any scenario, straight or english (e.g. cut or spin induced throw etc.). Since you are not playing anymore would you like to share your experience and basis of aiming with straight or engligh shots and how aiming point deviates. Whenever I search aiming in pool, I always gets ghost ball method or edge of the ferrule but nothing concrete.
@@khalidsaeed1981 tough Q bro, I believe most top players play aiming on instinct through years of practise, as for side spin a lot depends on what cue your using too
@@KarlBoyesPoolLife Agreed..... Nothing beat experience..... I think I should spend more time on table..... Thanks again for your insight :)
I’m stubborn… I always want a 10 🤪
Would this break technique also work for 8 ball?
100%
