    excellent video and very engaging to listen to. Not many players who are at the top of their sport are able to breakdown and explain what they do and how they do it. Mick is brilliant to watch and is brilliant at commentary.

    I've watched a ton of youtube pool coaching vids over the years, and I'd say this is the most informative 15 mins of all that I've seen. You can tell Mick's pool brain is just at the highest level. I've always said outside of fundamentals, its hard to coach pool because so much is about feel and touch, but Mick does an exceptional job here of explaining his processes and describing subtle elements of his shots.
    And might I say, remembering Mick as a chubby youngster with a dodgy quiff - he's looking fit as a fiddle here!

      I learned absolutely nothing from this video. Which is fine, it’s not meant for my skill level. I’d like to see all these bar box guys play rotation on a 9 foot table though.

    Imagine Mick giving instructions on making a cup of tea.. 1) pick up kettle using your right hand, placing your 4 fingers around the handle, and the thumb underneath, at precisely 7 on the clock face, then place under the cold water tap, that has been running for 6.8 seconds, and part fill the kettle to just above half way. Carefully insert the plug into the socket, before flicking the switch to allow electricity to run through, which in turn will heat up the kettle element, this heating up the water to the desired 100°c at a rolling boil!! 😄
    He really is the professor of pool knowledge!!

      @@UltimatePool An insight into the differences between shot style preferences and managing your mental game for a final/tough match versus an easier/less important game would be very valuable and not something I've seen a lot of. Also I'm sure there's lots more insight to be heard not relevant to this specific layout so repeating the format of this video just on more games would be great too. Thanks!

    Very impressive tutorials with clear elaboration of how the balls should be played and natural grip to be able to be consistent in your cueing & avoiding being chasing a win either... Most important is to be decisive in your pattern play & confidence behind each shot... 🤷‍♂️

    6:37 I get the canon and everyone is happy. Apart from the opponent 🤣🤣. His explanation is fantastic!! Detailed and can help you win more games by knowing more options of what to do and what not to do. Unlike Ronnie o slutivian I bet he would say hit this do that and win. If you miss break the cue 🤣🤣

    Hi ya I've been playing pool since the age of 10, for 42 years , tbh , I always try and get rid of the hardest ball early if I can , also , I try and clear all the balls the opposite end of the table of the black (9) as I llke to keep my game compact if I can , I map my route once broke , and also see the best pocket the black can go in and play my shots progressively with that black shot in mind
