Keep in mind this man is one of the best players that has lived. He died of cancer and this is his legacy.

He is showing the thinking process that is needed, this is good info

holy shit, this dude was at Johnston city, I read books with him part of the action. subscribed immediately. hippy jimmy I think they called him.

Good video ...subscribed

Not a very good teacher,but saw him play in the late 70s and early 80s,played world class speed and was a great hi stakes money player!!!

There's more than one way to run a rack... there's more than one way to play a table... some people's style is to duck... other's take the shot and go for it... everyone needs to play the rack how they see it and according to their skill level.

I understand why the lessons are free

Thanks 👍

I've been watching this for about two months now, does he end up potting a ball?

"The Opponent has broken the Balls" hahahah

I can't see very good down at the head of the table but I think any pro or advanced player would use that carom on the head rail. Sure you made it somewhat more difficult but It is sure as hell easier than trying to reverse bank side you were talking about.

lol at all the haters. this game is 90% mental. if you're one of those idiots who breaks and then shoots the first easy shot you see I'd love to play you for money... If you're a very advanced player, or the top bar player in your town his vids will take you to the next level. If you're some drunk who thinks he's pretty good at pool cause you have a table at your house this man's lectures will sound like some boring mambo jumbo bs.

So basically the lesson of this video was the 9 was hard.

"what can I do with these two balls" **smirk**

Why not play the outside yellow of the 2 into bottom pocket on 2nd shot and clear up

holy shit

personally id rather visually see them break... THEN run the rack.... to me this feels like a pattern is already established by them..

I wish people knew how adolescent they sound when making jokes about the word "balls" in billiard context.

Easy run-out for me

still not tell them anything huh Jimmy Lou from Kentucky

Could've just run out from the first yellow ball if you're good enough...

Now guys listen up!!! I'm gonna shoot this red ball in that pocket or I could shoot that yellow ball in the other pocket but if I do that then it wont leave me position on this other yellow ball behind that red ball which in this case I will shoot the next red ball one to the last in this pocket and then maybe I can play a safety behind that other ball but either way if I shoot the last red ball before that other yellow ball which is behind these other 2 red balls then then I have 3 trouble red balls up table that I cant get position on. Everybody following me so far, we on the same page guys??

Now what do I do with these 2 balls .LOL

The Charlie Brown Teachers would explain better.

He hasn't told me anything g I couldn't see myself.

Talk talk talk all I do is talk talk

why does the instructor have to sound drunk or sumthin?

ZZZzzzzz

duh duh blah umm ahhh.. wait. i'm thinking so i cant talk cuz thats like doing two things at once. duh.. umm ahh.. uhh... do drink some more.

All talk no action

wait are you saying you are selling this. ha ha pretty basic

a pro would kick that red and then have the freedom of the table afterwards, every other red goes clean that kick would be the hardest shot.

lmao most people could kick that first shot in off the rail

he has no clue...lol

APA blows.

vidio asu......ckckckcekakak

If he played that first shot in a bar on a Friday night he wouldn't make it out alive...! Need to be a tad more ambitious than that matey

Jimmy may be a great pool player but it dose'nt take a braino to run this rack. He should have use'd the frist ball on the rail to break up the two problem balls.Safty is not allways the best way to start a rack....BUT IM NO PRO.....If I had the next shot I would push the red 9ball into the yellow ball with top right stick them together leaveing the Q ball on the long rail forceing him to play the yellow ball on the right.. Then run the table "BUT IM NO PRO"
