Awful stroke, awful stance. You don't need to move like this to generate power on break. Moving so much doesn't generate more power, but makes you loose control. His stance is is an example off what to never do if you want to learn pool. Everything move when he strokes,his head his shoulder, he stands up while stroking. he is not a pro anymore,he is not even in the 500 hundred world ranking, he is not even in the eurotour ranking. We saw this guy twice in the us open and we never saw him again.
I´v never saw anybody breaking and ending up with a knee on the table! that was big break. amazing. This guy really can play. I think that pool its easy for him compared to russian billiards.
@fragoplas I think so too, he's well disciplined from the tight pockets of pyramid. Look how cleanly he pockets the balls! Right in the center of the pockets.
@SirNoobs that's true, and another thing that is curious to me, and I saw this in several of his games, he breaks and plays with the same cue stick !, that tip really gets punished haha! It doesn't look like a regular pool cue anyway..., check it out in the US open....
@fragoplas not necessarily true as the balls in pool are lighter thus harder to control, not to say that the dynamics of these two games are completely different, plus in Russian billiards you can see the balls much better
the break was (more or less) 100 km/h, so you can break at 400 km/h. Hey paranoikos13, I´m a profesional player and sometimes I do 5 balls in my break and sometimes 0 balls, in a 90% is a lucky cuestion. Don´t be fool, and don´t lie.
your break can be like his break, congratulations!!! you break like him, like me and like one million players more. A strong break is not specially dificult. So don´t think you are special.

the way he breaks, seriously is wrong. But the table is still opened up real good. And he plays good positioning too.

@rogom36900 The top pro pool players in the world with the most powerful breaks have cueball speeds of about 32MPH max, nowhere near 100km/h.
