      AGREED. Love how a true professional, legendary player stresses the "for me" part without making judgemental, generic and foolish declarations using the idiot word "best". So totally unlike amateur players online who insist on preaching that their preferences are "best" for everyone and then actually fighting with people who dare to disagree with then.

    A couple of years ago, I attended a pro-am tournament in South Carolina with a couple of my Filipino pool playing friends. At the end of play the second night, a wealthy backer challenged Alex to play the ghost in a race to 17 for $10,000 with 13 balls racked and Alex pocketing balls in numerical order. Alex won with a score of 17-13. The fat cat then challenged Alex to go double or nothing on the flip of a coin. Amazingly, Alex accepted and lost the toin coss and the $10,000 he had won from playing the ghost. Alex just shrugged his shoulder and smiled, like winning or losing 10 grand on a coin toss was no big deal. I will never forget that night.

    @briangc1972 Před rokem +4

    Everyone is slightly different, so as Alex clearly said several times, this is what works for him. A steel joint and thicker shaft for one pocket is contrary to what so many "experts" claim. What is important is that every player should try as many different cues as possible before spending thousands of dollars. Unfortunately, fewer and fewer pool rooms offers high end cues and most won't allow you to chalk the tip when trying out a new cue. Some online sellers have figured it out though and offer 30 or 60 day trial periods and only charge a small restock fee. That is far cheaper than spending $$$ on cue after cue searching for the one that feels best for you.

    Respect to the preferences but Efren is (was because he finished 3rd this year) the God of One-pocket but uses his normal playing cue.
    But again, Efren is the GOAT, the most adaptive player I’ve ever seen.
    I just gotta say not all people are like that, some people need different preferences, I guess Efren was born different (LUCKY!?)

    I love this. Interviewer is like,” How hard is the tip?” He answers I don’t know. Then How much is the diameter of the shaft? “I have no clue. I just test it out till it feels just right. How much does your one ball pocket cue weigh? I have no clue. LOL. That’s awesome. That’s the best way to test it out. Different brands react differently regardless of specific sizes. He doesn’t set anyone one cue to any specific size or weight. He goes by feel and results.

  • @JohnBowl14690
    @JohnBowl14690 Před 2 měsíci +1

    One key takeaway...Alex didn't spend 50 hours looking for a break cue. He tried his friends break cue and liked it better and the rest is history. He was already breaking well, but later found something better. Cool stuff.
