How to Play Pool : Pool Strategy Tips: Online Billiards Lessons for Beginners

pussy

[GunitForLyfe]

this guy is retarded

[v1das007]

I dont get it, why people teach situations like that. There are thousands of different situations in biliards, learning one shot is not the main thing. It's more then obvious, that you need to think about the cue ball position after your shot, before you shoot. How to get the white in right place, that's what you need to learn. So why is he not teaching people about spins and physics? That's the key to success, combined with self-confidence and concentration.

@azoldtime09 Who cares what kind of balls they are... jeez.

[azoldtime09]

@TheVampyreCat just kidding.

[Apextwink]

I want a pool at home(((

[95MasterDavo]

now how do you do that?

[Toca91]

,,This is Richard for export village dut calm..."

[dv713]

I guess everybody is a pool expert and does not need beginner advice.

I have met and played many of these experts and they all should take up golf. This guy is trying to help beginners and I give him credit for that.

[rdudutis]

stop roll back or go forwards thats all this wideos is all about. nice try but this game is more than that. I knew about that hits when I was 12. BORING!!

[XandaFlanda]

my god, yanks really are shit at cue sports!

[ps81001]

where and when did it becom leagle to use the 8 ball in a combination shot on an open table

[ProdigyKimXP]

@ps81001 No idea. Didn't even know that was a rule, but I don't do that anyways.

How can you guys see through all the words posted over the picture? All I see is a shadow that occasionally moves in the background.

[praveenharan]

@JesPiddlin you can switch it off by clicking on the cc at bottom right corner

[InsanityHere]

And why do people talk during the videos they want to show? It wasn't that long, he didn't do anything amazing.  He should have used more graphics, with arrows etc, like you can do in Picasa. People need to add more quality to their videos.

[12345Tpb]

why is he calling this billiards, its 8-ball, billiards is played on a 12'x6' table with 2 cue balls and a red..... making a shot on is called "position" and wtf is stop shot, try calling it its proper name of "stun"

[poopinvasion]

@12345Tpb

There are hundreds of different types of billiards games, one of which is 8-ball. Moron.

[12345Tpb]

@poopinvasion

Considering you are calling a ranking player in the game a moron just proves how ignorant you really are. There is only one game called billiards, and this is NOT it. Billiards dates back to before the 17th century, I doubt this game is even more than 50 years old (100 at best). Look it up, you might actually smell what you are shovelling

[poopinvasion]

@12345Tpb

Well, ignorance is bliss. Considering that you are a 'ranking player' (proof? no matter) and spending your free time trolling the internet, belittling people on YouTube, and arguing with someone called 'poopinvasion' just proves how SUPER COOL you really are.  Congratulations on your life so far. Single, are we?

[12345Tpb]

@poopinvasion

So far all I have stated is FACT, I have questioned him on the game, not his person, he might actually be a nice guy in real life, who knows? You however, started this name calling (calling me a moron for example) and I'm supposed to be the one "belittling" and "trolling"? I am also not the one calling myself "poopinvasion" whom is arguing with me about this. Marital status also has nothing to do with this, try and stay on the subject at hand.

[csrfc1873]

lololololol

2:23 edit fail. Im taking it the EXPERT missed

[MeSsI10CR9HD]

bla bla bla bla bla

[LetajYlber]

man i love billiard to much

[killerelf]

buy me a pool table I'll teach you how to play.

[maderomadero]

this guy makes pool seem hella boring...

[Xylence]

In my opinion, if you're not playing, (in most situations) It's pretty damn boring, unless you're watching the pros do those wacky shots on ESPN.

[nazra7]

You know, the only ball he was hitting was the same one he already hit into the pocket. He rearranged them to show different situations.

[DDazzle1]

miss at 2:22!HAAHAA

[XthelordinatorX]

indeed :)

[emmadansmith]

Love the video editing work - no one will notice the balls change position - how many times did he need to play those simple shots to get it right!??

[mikel1239]

not bad for beginers, no offence but you do sound like yogi bear

[ki6eki]

i understand what he's doing but HOW DOES HE DO IT?! DRAW THE CUE BALL BACK?! WTF how does he control where the cue ball goes.. i just shoot and be like oh.. it bounced there..

[speedstakerguy]

its called hitting the ball in a certain spot to give it a certain spin.

[Ryoko54]

You can hit the cue ball without english on either the top portion or lower portion of the center striking area of the cue ball. Hitting the cue towards the top is called follow because you are adding a forward spin to enable the cue to continue traveling forward after the object ball is hit. Hiting the cue on the bottom portion is called draw. This puts a backwards spin on the cue so when it hits the object ball it returns or "draws" backwards towards you.

[12ace12ace]

cool

[DJEagle81]

Hahaha, what a expert... lmao

[graemegraemegraeme]

you can tell he missed it first time because the balls changed position hahahaahaha what a wang

[Antwn4]

You can tell? Not necessarily... it could've been that the cue ball, after he made the shot, drew back into an undesirable position.

[Copen70]

no he didnt miss he changed the game situation ya dunce

[joeygonzo]

@graemegraemegraeme

It was a tough shot . lol

[locorossco]

Practice is what makes good players great. You think those Pool Pros would be anywhere near as good as they are if they didn't practice 6-10 hours a day? Yeah, even Efren would get rusty if he didn't play for a month.

[TriCk2o9]

that is the stupidest concept i have ever heard in my life...ever.

[Hr9C0]

lmao your fucking stupid, it's common sense think about it. It's same as warming up.

[TriCk2o9]

i replied to iitem8. before it was removed he said something like "if your not born to play you will never be good" something along those lines. i was agreeing with locorosso. i could see how you misunderstood.

[sweatysock14]

when the vvolume on the vid is down anyways...

[sweatysock14]

volume stupid fuck

[sweatysock14]

He sounds like Tommy Chong.

[xxqueenzplayaxx]

he has a mexican english acsent

[shinyseb]

hey tes bon toe

[marcs1268]

i swear expert village jus picks any guy up off the street to make there videos how can americans play with such "precision" on a pool table with a cue the thickness of your leg try a real game like snooker most americans couldn't even get past a 10 break

[96DemonGT]

Isn't snooker the fruity game where you can shoot any ball you want? What exactly is so great about it? The only difficult thing about it is that the table is huge, thus making it less of a cluster fuck with the balls.

Cheeri-O

[marcs1268]

maybe u might wanna check the rules cos i was never aware u could hit any ball u want, in pool no matter how bad a player is they can still win it takes real skill to play snooker maybe u should give it a try some day

[Fredoss2142]

Snooker is a lot harder than u might think, u can't hit any ball u want at all. I think its a lot harder than pool.

[thecreation411]

i do agree that snooker is a difficult game . i tried playing it and it was totally harder than i thought it would be but I actually hate 8 ball. I like one pocket. its also pretty difficult game to me( when your playing experienced players).have you ever played three cushion pool. its pretty difficult as well. i actually play one pocket on a snooker table just for kicks. my accuracy got better really quick. the table is actually a 50 year old brunswick snooker table.

[califoolio]

just a clarification. there is no three cushion pool, there is three cushion billiards. pool is pocket billiards

[runoutman]

yeah expert village is pretty lenient with the word expert. but dude snooker and pool are equally difficult. without competition snooker would be harder but when you factor in competition it just means you have to play really fuckin' good pool to stay competitive because it's "easier". how many consecutive 147s has ronnie made? because earl ran ten racks. it's all relative

[fucklandriders3]

it looks like at 2:23 or 2:24 the white ball hopped backwards look at it

[joewizard100]

is it just me or do americans always say BOWL instead of ball?

[joewizard100]

mate you suck gimmie your pool table BLUD BLUD!

[mysterio108]

hey man you should to use shoes xD

[megzilla79]

Thanks for the tips! I have to say, I doubted you at first - the production quality is lower than what you deserve - but I was quickly won over by the quality of your instruction. You know your content, and you're an excellent teacher! You break it down wonderfully - it's easy to digest for a beginner. Looking forward to your other videos!

[Jadytube]

thanks for this video, it helps a lot. when I play i dont really know how to make the cue ball end up like i want it to, now i know how to shoot it, thanks a lot!

[jonnyf147]

this guy is not an expert hes a hack

[acebrawler73]

Well, most of the people on expert village aren't experts. If they were they would be doing it proffesionaly and and charging for these "lessons". But he is giving good basic strategy information. Even though it is pretty much self evident if you know how to impart draw, follow, and stun.

[ArseneGray]

I think he speaks clearly and im not native american or enlish and find his lessons quite useful. thanks a lot

[bubblerings]

Yes, the editing shows that he did it over... but, at least I thank the man for trying to help people by spending his time... thanks.

[bubblerings]

If this is a part two or part three to something, it doesn't say so... is he speaking chinese?

[WillItExplode2008]

he missed the last shot, you can notice the ball change position right when he goes to hit it

[willrob1989]

this is obviously not about how good he is at pool, its about him making the shot perfect for us to see what he is doing, not to impress us.

[leitegabriel]

what? I cant understand shit...

[tavo1973]

If you can't understand that is a personal problem, you might have to get somebody to slow it down for you or some special ed teacher. Not only is their audio but visual too.He might not be an expert, but experts don't make every shot either.

[LiMaoTang]

haha.. he missed BOTH of the last shots... call urself a teacher??? haha.. beer is my teacher

[anahi97546]

u missed!

[mcscheijgrond79]

hah he missed the first time of the draw shot

[SuperToast123]

hahaha.. Dude. Seriously. Don't teach people to shoot like you. You're missing draw shots that are complete jokes. I see why you only do beginner lessons...

[JakobzLadder7]

he didnt miss?

[Xethos25]

well, he did since u can see the frame skip. (not even a frame skip -.-)but don't have to be so rude about it

[mrc0olguy]

nigga cant shoot no damn pool

[labiasofjustice]

learn how to fucking speak proper english

[grudeonline]

in place where i live the 8 ball must go in the hole of the last ball (hole where u put the last ball). it easy to finish the game with 8 ball in any hole u like!

[mrc0olguy]

thats not how you play...i hate when different places make up their own rules..

[KamaMatt]

lol on the last thing he messed up because the balls moved

[Jas0nP]

way to mess up the draw shot first time around again!

[briantheaceofspades]

dude, drawing is one of the hardest things to get consistent in pool. I can draw about a table and a half but it's alot harder to do it with percition.

[SuperToast123]

well if you can't do it consistently. Don't teach it.

[VermoXL]

WHAT'S ON HIS PANTS?
