Post ITT to discuss this great activity. Who here plays 9ball?
>>154081053I’ve only played decades worth of stripes and solids. This 9ball would’ve been cool to know about when I had a table to play on
>>154081115My cousin taught me to play 8 ball one time at a pizza place, tiny 6ft table. After that day I went to a local pool hall to learn, play on nice 9ft tables and have been self taught since that day about 6 years ago. Joined a league to learn how to play 9ball then dropped out to just fuck around on my own. I just order some drinks, enjoy the jukebox and play 9ball alone, have invited some people to my table and made good friends that I occasionally invite to play. Have even had some good times with coke involved. Any decent pool halls near you?
>>154081207Good shit no only a few outside of town for me. Most bars near me have the small tables not that they’re bad. I haven’t played for a couple years but it’s kinda like riding a bike with booze helping you see the shots. Drunk 8 ball is where I’ve hit my best shots
>>154081796Drinking definitely helps steady the arm and gives the much needed confidence to land the shots. I honestly have no fun playing on little bar tables and oddly enough when ive gone to bars the tables are always claimed by a group of people. Going to a legit pool hall is a whole different level of atmosphere and playing on 9ft tables is the icing on the cake. You got a cue? Recently upgraded my players cue with a carbon fiber shaft so I dont have to worry about warping, shoots very good.
>>154082025I’ll have to drive to one and check it out. No fancy cue for me I haven’t played serious enough to own one outside the basic one piece
Bump
