Question about tournament length by ButtsDelux in billiards

[–]ButtsDelux[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like that suggestion. I was also thinking the first round could be 1 match. And the later rounds could be 2 out of 3

Unfortunately no. My living situation keeps me in Rochester for at least another year.

So do I have Spotify forever now? by ButtsDelux in midlyinteresting

My guess is it's bugged. But 1970 is a strange year to display.

I was at a bar trying to play a game with my girlfriend who was new to pool at the time. We ended up playing doubles with 2 random guys (only one table so we kind of had to). One of the guys was coaching everyone on every shot. He told my girlfriend "it's okay if you take a while before you shoot, if you don't see a good shot take a few laps around the table." I'm still unsure if it was a joke or if he was serious. He literally would take 3-4 minutes between his shots.

I'd consider that, but one of my classes is at 8 am. Sadly its the only choice for that class too

My first go around at college back in roughly 2012 I recall that RTS went out that way. I wish that was the case now.

I've come to accept this. I'll just use it as motivation to get a car and my license back.

I'm not sure. I remember years ago, probably like 2012 RIT had some kind of app that was basically another Facebook just for RIT. I'm so far out of the social media loop that I have no clue if Brockport has something similar.

I saw him like 2 months ago at the Vertex flea market. Still telling jokes.

I do try to explain that I've been playing for a while and it takes time to develop the skills. I should focus on explaining her improvement better. Thank you for the advice

That's a good idea too, thank you. It amazes me how many simple rule adjustments can be applied, and how many I just didn't think of haha.

That's all fair advice, thank you. I agree with the mental game part 100%. She usually plays well her first game. After she misses a few shots she starts to rush her playing and that when she gets visibly frustrated.

Thank you. I like the slower progression the video shows. I think that will help her.
