The Billiard Thread

I have long wanted to learn to play billiards now I have started, it It's not difficult but you have to think a lot about how to use the white ball. What about you? Do you play billiards?

Sure. I play billard, snooker and pool — you name it lol. They have tons of games with lots of rules. It makes things spicy lol. But I don't play them as much as I did when I was a teen.

Recently I watched the World Snooker Championship a lot because of Chinese players. The Chinese in the finals were wicked. I wanna try some of their techniques and it gave me a possible idea to come up with a way to make the white ball spin so much after spiral rotation around the table thus you hit the ball or something stylish way to play lollolol.

I used to play a lot of billiard and pool in my teens.

I even own my own cue.

Oh, how I miss it.

My love for the game started when I was a kid. I watched a movie that the guy hit the white ball so hard every ball on the table got into the holes lol. I knew how BS the scene was but I'm a Fool™ lol so I wanted to do it myself. I tried a lot then some old guy approached me and said "kid better learn how to play it, playing the game is more fun" or something and he was right. But then I wanted to play like this by breaking laws of physics lol:

Why did you stop ?

Why did you stop ?

Adulthood, mostly.

I explain it better on this article.

Boredom, getting old, I couldn't improve myself (ah man cannot break laws of physics lol).

My eyesight got bad which is very important in this game so you can calculate where to hit the balls. A slight miscalculation is bad for you. Knowledge on geometry and simple laws of physics will make you a better player. Another reason is my hips are so bad now. I can't bend it without discomfort and sit on places for a long time. My right knee is the most awful part of my body. Sometimes it hurts like hell and I cannot bend it.

I leave this game to the youngsters. Learn where to hit the ball and how spinning the ball can give you opportunities. Every spin direction has its own advantages. Practice how to make the ball bounce from the bounds of the table. Just try not to hit the ball too hard because it can fly out of the table and hurt somebody. Don't think when you hit the ball it has to only go forward. It can also go backward too if you make it spin it right. It can even go right and left.

Well, It's time for me to retire. Do you know why sunset is beautiful? Because it sets!!! lolol
