The world billiards tournament is in the offing. Of course I am rooting for my countrymen Efren Reyes and Django Bustamante who are geometrically naturals. How else could they make such magic-like shots? I tried playing the nine ball and I am pathetic. Are you good at pool?

I started playing back when I was in high school and I have to say I can play. I enjoy playing it and if I only had money I would definitely buy my own pool table. I balanced playing pool back then while I was about to graduate for high school. It turned out okay actually it turned out well. I graduated with honors so it only meant that it did not do anything negative with my time in school.
But basically I can say I can play the game but I have to practice to be better than I first started.

Whatever you are doing now, don't forget to practice your shots. Join the tournaments. You might be another Bata or Django. And fortune goes with the enjoyment of the game. Wish you luck!

im ok i guess. all the game is about is angles. if you figure out how to hit straight you can increase your skill a lot.

The shots are not all straight. The angles are not options sometimes. I think the preparation matters and the strategy, too.
