Jeremy Jones Pool Instruction - Key Fundamentals
Wow, it must be nerves, because they are shooting like 4 s
The subtitles are all wrong and it’s funny 😂
11:00 Pretty sure there's chalk on that tip man, you've only been rubbing it on there for the past 30 seconds...
The best advice I ever got from a seasoned player was "pratice how you play". This was the point Jeremy was trying to make.
QUESTION: APA NATIONAL CAN'T GIVE A STRAIGHT ANSWER. Foul or not Foul. Opponent: has used his one time out during the rack. ME: I am on the 8 ball and mark the pocket. correctly but miss. Opponent: another teammate runs to the table and marks the 8 ball pocket for him to shoot. Rule is only one coach allowed at the table for a time out? Opponent has no more timeouts. Used it earlier in the game. Teammate marked the pocket for his player to shoot. While i can find no rule that says the PLAYER has to mark the pocket, the rule says: if a player does not mark the pocket it is a ball in hand. If a player has used his timeout, Then the foul occurred when 1) another player marked the pocket, 2) another player went to the table without a timeout, 3) the player did not mark the pocket.
She hit the fourteen first
This is one of the best APA matches I've seen
I just got done with WQ in Tunica, MS. They put up an 8, yet I'm a 2. It was a tough fight, but i did beat him. I needed a defibulator and nitroglycerin, but i did it.
Wish VNEA paid out like APA.
Unless you win state and go to Vegas APA payouts aren’t anything special.
Great match! At 8/8 turned off sound ( replaced with music ). Really good amateur pool. You'd almost think they were pros and not APA skill level 7s.
I've just looked through the comments and I feel sorry for all those who must have a label. The front hand is not moved so it's not FHE. The back hand is not moved so it's not BHE. And there's no parallel shift involved either! Dear me, what will the poor label seekers do?
Simply the best!
Super obvious foul at 50:00 but nobody calls it lol. No ball hit a rail after contact.
Sorry Abrin. You should't play in amateur pool. No pros APA.
Their strokes are atrocious for Masters players. Not that they aren’t great shot makers and have a lot of experience in terms of shot selection, but I would’ve expected to see some more “beautiful” pool here
Thank you MIKE
Jeremy jones best shot player/ commentator, much love from Ireland you and Karl boyes make it worth watching 2 absolute legends of the game.
some of the translation are wrong and funny even in english lmao
please invite efren
Can't wait for my team to get out there in August. My first time in APA and we qualified for Las Vegas. I couldn't believe it.
We look forward to seeing you there!
The best Efren Reyes of the Philippines "The MAGICIANS"
APA should have big payouts for amateurs . Our local APA league charges $10 per person per night
Love you sweetie hang in there 😮😮😮
Love the emotion. Pool is the greatest game.
Title of video should be SL3 vs sandbagger.
The Saudi’s don’t care. This is just another way to get people to ignore the horrible things they do to other humans. They have that oil f u money. This is pennies for them.
They’re making them play on a crappy bar box table. Yuck 😖😖
these guys would be 4's in our league
If I was a 9 and had to play a 2 I would be so mad. 😅imagine playing a 1 😬😬😬
Wait a min why was the 8ball not on the center of the rack?
You are my favorite ,good job explaining it 👍
This is such a stupid video on multiple levels. It's embarrassing that this is on the official APA channel
This is 100% clearly a defensive shot based on the amount of power used. Unless the shooter says he gooded and just didn't put the force needed, I'm marking defense all day.
I love their support for the players. But it's kind of like watching a seasoned fighter box Martha Stewart for the championship (but she still wins because of the handicap).
Big Shaka from Hawaii birth of the Shaka and congratulations to you both Charlie and Ron. Awesome and exciting match you both played, Ron you almost won the tournament. Sometime people watch me play and at times find themselves wandering why I took a shot instead of the one that might make sense to them (as an able body) player. I sometime have to go with a shot that works in my favor logistically than strategically as a wheelchair player. I've played able-body who played from a wheelchair but I explained it's close but not a true realistic experience bcs he was able to shoot a difficult mass'e shot from the wheelchair with back and front muscle control allowing for body balance control little over 17" -- 18" from the rail pocketing a ball. The player confessed that he realized that he took advantage not realizing realistically it would be difficult for most true paraplegic players to achieve a mass'e shot that far out on the table. If a paraplegic player was tall enough and had long arms and with endurance he might've be able to achieve a quality mass'e shot. It's truly not a complaint just an observation and friendly testimony the able body wc player made to me at the end of our match back in 1987.
Why do you two videos of the same subject?
Why do they play on these Children’s tables ?
emily & puyat!
A longer interview with him please.
Only played Shane once, an amateur team event. If I hadn't broken dry, I'm sure I would've beat him. 😁
Thank you for your support of Efren
lol guy on a extended test drive making this call.
She's a clown running a shill of a program.
SVB must be buying a new GMC? See the window sticker in background?? Good job champ!!
Yeah damn Shane is super rich man. Man has made millions
As much as I like Shane as a pool player, you take your shades off when doing an interview or in a face to face conversation.
@@zanethind Only rich compared to pool players. Not super rich at all though. Yes, he recently passed Efren for career purse winnings. But that's only about $2 to $3 million (spread over Shane's approx. 17 year career). And all those tournament wins (and those he didn't win) cost him a chunk of money each time, between the entry fee, the travel, lodging and food. When Shane leads the annual earnings list, it's about $200k (not deducting all the expenses). That just isn't super rich territory whatsoever. CueTec pays him to endorse their cues as well, and he owns a pool hall too, but it just doesn't add up to really big money.
They dont have any brains just good at pool😂@@joeyvanleeuwen5229
@@phillipschuman4307 probably close to 200k depending on money matches won and stuff, certainly not rich.
I can't thank you enough for these priceless in depth lessons. I've been playing pool for about 12 years and never had a lesson but I kept going out of stubbornness. Eventually I found myself looking for help and found you. Not even one day later I'm playing more professionally.
Only in APA’s “no pushout” rules a 580 Fargo beats a 700+ Fargo lol. Fun match, both were feeling heat
Somebody out there watching this...ANYBODY (!!!), correct me if I missed something... ...did either guy even run 3 straight balls? There were clear open cuts and safety ruled, instead. Probably nerves. I have a lot of bullets in my cue and I pull the trigger, but that's my style. It's what I'm comfortable with AND WHAT GETS RESULTS.
Ewa's strategic commentary is so interesting to listen to. 9/10 times I was a hair ahead of her in shot/cueball planning. Would love to play her in 9....come to Chicagoland, Ewa. Dinner on me.
Camera man drunk? Ruined the video
