Produktbeschreibung

I try to use a scientific approach to the game of pool, and the scientific approach is basically what this book is about. It does have some theory. I am dedicating this book to Willy Masconi, Willy Hoppi, and Danny diLeberto, Billiards Digest, and to so many people who influenced me throughout the years. The dedication to this book goes out to basically all that have contributed throughout the years to a great sport. My hat goes off to these people that have made the game so noble and great. So leave the dreams of yesterday, take the torch of knowledge, and build the dreams for future. I go through a lot of thingspsychological aspects, new ways of shooting, and the evolution and alternate path for enjoyment of the game. The benefits of intervention, quality versus quantity, and failure versus success all attribute to aspects of the game. Common fears, social consequences that comes up, how do you know whos right, natural talent versus acquired talent, so we go on throughout and we look at the mechanics and theories and we see how the accumulated knowledge sometimes affect you and your game and the longevity of your game. The importance of sleep, exercise, your attitude, and how much you love the game and your performance is improving, so you can stay within the nutritional error, and you will be ready physically and mentally when it comes time to perform. Study facts and fantasy and see how everything works for you and what doesnt work for you. Self-testing of talent and having someone else help you will help to improve your game. Be creative.

Autorenporträt

I am the author, Bobby Yates. I wrote this book basically about you. I'll tell you a bit about myself, but the book is about you because I want you to be able to find your game, and that is what everyone tries to do, find their own game, style, and success. As far as I am concerned, as the writer, I have been a student of the game, all my life, actually. Well, let's say it seems that way. Ever since I was five or six years old, I remember my dad playing snooker, coming home and bragging about winning and such. I didn't understand but learned eventually when I was finally able to see a pool table and what the game was and how it was played. I was so excited, like children with toy cars or trucks, but pool was different; it was amazing to me. Anything with a ball in my life was fascinating. I grew up loving the game of pool. Any game I played, it had to be for something. Nobody would play just to play, even if it was for marbles against marbles. I would go buy a sack of marbles, and we would draw a circle and we'd play. I lost a lot of them until I got good enough at it. It seemed like everyone wanted something out of it. In the place where I grew up, it seemed like everyone wanted to gamble. Pool was the same way. But once you play for something, you aren't interested then in doing it for nothing and you don't try when you play. All my life it was this way. I never played for nothing, although I loved the game. The name of this book is For Love or Money. I've tried my whole life not to be dependent on playing for the love of it, not just the money. Playing for nothing, I had nothing to gain except knocking the balls in, and that was all I had to look forward to. Everyone needs something to do it for, whether it is for the love of the game or for money. I wanted to quit everything to play for money, and I almost did. I would go on the road and hustle pool games.
