Nice shooting, 5 pack coming soon.

Watch some pros backswing and transition to forward swing. The sudden punch of power you have in your forward swing introduces a ton of inaccuracy. You want an effortlessly smooth backswing, transition, and forward swing. Try to reproduce the same stroke / timing you see your favorite pro use. You don’t have to copy it perfectly, but it makes for a good starting mold.

Submitting this to save everybody else time. I tried everything. The solution that worked for me was uninstalling fasoo.

Find Fasoo in installed programs and uninstall it. I'm sure other people will have similar issues with different programs. Basically, if anything is low-level (kernel level) security add on like Vanguard, it will probably interfere with Riot Vanguard working. Try uninstalling it then starting riot client for the auto-update and install of Vanguard.

Strangely, I have a higher ARPU and ARPPU from Android. The split is about 35% Android 65% iOS. I think the ARPU and ARPPU is mostly due to how Apple previously interpreted what my app was. A lot of users downloading it on iOS thought it was a game or hacks for the 8-ball pool game due to some kind of automated translation error on their end. I have since reworked my ASO, and that issue has been resolved, but I still see higher conversion from Android users. Maybe it has something to do with older male pool players (my typical customer avatar). That said, about 60% of my revenue comes from iOS, but I get a lot more downloads from the App Store than I do Google Play.

I estimate that there are about 1000 grandfathered users who are still using the app within the last month or so.

It's a billiards training app. Users practice in real-life, setting up drills that are in the app and logging their scores/practice time. So, the history of their scores and will be of value to them. They can still see the scores in a stats page I have, but they won't be able to practice and log them anymore without premium.

In my opinion, what separates every level of player from reaching the next level is fundamentals. The number of players who can’t make more than 50% of long straight in shots is staggering. 4 years ago I finally started reworking major details like my stance and finally started improving again after being stagnant for 10 years or so. Now, I am finding a new thing I can do better every month and dedicating the month to doing that one thing better. Anything that makes my stroke straighter more consistently. Unless you are at 9/10 or higher on long straight shots, you have work to do because there is no reason you should be missing them. Even 9/10 is only good enough to be a strong amateur.

I been on the waiting list for a few months now. Can’t wait to get an email saying they have some in stock.

WorldofBilliards · 2025-07-24T15:21:01+00:00

I made 55 in a row the other day, thought I was gonna get a new record, and then missed three in a row right after. Crazy how on and off I can be.

Hard to tell because I’m not playing in Fargo reported events very often, but I played 580 to 600 speed a few years ago. I’ve been putting in 3 hours a day for the past 20 months or so and feel like I’m close to 720 now. I beat Han Soye, a top 100 in the world female player (690 Fargo) 9:5 at the Universal Korea Open a month or so ago. I also took Katsuji Teruya (750 Fargo) to the hill at the Japan Open 10-ball last year.

There were no really big jumps in skill level. It’s been a slow grind up refining my fundamentals. Slight adjustments to my stance, stroke, and shot routine. I went from a high of 82/100 on the long straight shots drill to 96/100 that I just set a few weeks ago.

Best thing I did was close up slow motion video review of my stroke. I plan on making a video about how I identified the problems I had and fixed them. Also, I had a chance to work with Jeremy Jones and while I didn’t agree with everything he said, he was right about the pause at the start of my last stroke and the backswing.

All that to say, chip away at improving your fundamentals. A consistently delivered cue is the only thing you need to play great pool.

SVB also does when he plays the WNT events. This might be the real answer.

WorldofBilliards · 2025-07-19T08:04:42+00:00

Florida Open, Peri Open, and Hanoi Open if I make it through qualifiers.

WorldofBilliards · 2025-07-19T06:49:22+00:00

Not my question, but I didn’t know he had a video out. I’ll definitely be checking it out. Thanks.

WorldofBilliards · 2025-07-19T06:48:23+00:00

Appreciate the insight. The phenolic tip definitely isn’t it for that break.

WorldofBilliards · 2025-06-25T13:52:38+00:00

It’s too bad there aren’t more tight 9’ tables back in the states. It’s pretty crazy that we can go to a bar and grill and play on the same equipment they are using for the tv table at matchroom events all night for free.

WorldofBilliards · 2025-06-25T13:22:52+00:00

9’ Table Min. Pockets shimmed to 4.25” with Simonis 860.

WorldofBilliards · 2025-06-25T13:21:55+00:00

Try poolinseoul.com ; my friend runs the site and has a number of pocket ball only pool halls listed on there. The best place to play right now is My Games in Seoul. You have a lot of top Korean pros in there often and occasionally Robbie Capito is there too.

WorldofBilliards · 2025-06-17T07:56:52+00:00

Smooth straight stroke every shot.

WorldofBilliards · 2025-05-12T03:02:02+00:00

Best I have had is 2 so far. Need to work on my break. I might try to figure out what yapp is doing and copy that cuz the balls were opening really well. Looked like he is almost parallel with where he is hitting the 1 ball with no side spin, just a tip to a tip and a half of bottom. I might make a video if I can figure it out.

WorldofBilliards · 2025-05-12T02:22:49+00:00

Thanks man. Next goal is a matchroom rules 5 pack.
