ENTERPRISING BILLIARDS

Enterprising Billiard
Download Chapter 13.rar


Enterprise invariably pays better than safety in billiards. One thing is absolutely certain, and that is you cannot win by playing wholly and consistently on the defensive. Nevertheless, your enterprise must always be tinctured with a certain amount of reasonable restraint. It is absolute madness to go out for anything or everything and chance the consequences merely from force of habit, and yet this is a habit which many amateurs indulge in. If there is "nothing on" they just let fly and hope something will turn up. That, however, is not billiards. The state of the game has a great bearing on the matter. You will do everything in your power even to hit a ball if your opponent needs but one point for game and is unkind enough to present you with a double-baulk.
In a lesser degree, if you must make a break to have any chance of winning a game which is going decidedly against you, it is the game to take risks which you would not face if the game was even, or more or less in your favour.

Double Bulk


As regards single-baulks made by giving a miss in baulk-the big question always is-how will you stand if your opponent replies by running a coup ? This will compel you to play at the red, and unless you can see daylight in that direction, you should be very chary of giving a miss in baulk which leaves the red in play.
Leaving a single-baulk by means of a stroke on the red is quite another matter. Should your opponent reply with a miss or a coup, you have the right to return the compliment, leaving him to be brought up by the rule governing the limitation of misses. As this rule is so important, I may explain that it means that you are not allowed to give two misses in succession unless a score or a double-baulk intervenes

Safety first " is doubtless an excellent motto in many respects, but I query it in a billiard sense. Safety play at billiards is something of a paradox. It seems easy, and it is easy within strict limitations. But when it is taken beyond the fairly obvious, safety play is the most difficult and problematical part of billiard playing. Suppose, for example, you are confronted by the position shown in Fig. 37. The cue-ball is in hand, the white is so close to the verge of the middle pocket that it is impossible to play it without potting it, the red lies tight against the side cushion in the position shown in my diagram. What is the correct game to play?

MORE ABOUT CANNONS Chapter 9

Download Capter 9.rar

After your work with the red ball, which you must persevere with even if it is irksome to begin with, you may relax for a while by turning temporarily to a few shots of a more spectacular type. The first of these will test two things-your power of cue and the quality of the cushions of the table on which you play the shot. Figure 29 shows the stroke. The cue-ball is 9 1/2 inches from the side cushion, and a foot from the baulk cushion. The first object-ball is 9 inches from the side cushion and a foot from the cue-ball. The red is 7 inches from the top cushion and 11 inches from the side cushion. By playing to the right of the object-ball, you can make a simple two-cushion cannon via the side and top cushions.

How to Play billiard (chapter8)


How To Pot a Ball ?
In the last chapter I was dealing with losing hazards and a series of fine ball-to-ball contacts with the spotted red. If, however, you gradually move your cue-ball away from the top cushion, sooner or later you will bring it to a point from which you had better try to pocket the red instead of attempting to go in-off it. A little further, and you have the spot-stroke position from which my father scored so many thousands of points. This is shown in Fig. 26, and although the spot-stroke has lost much of its potency as a scoring force, yet it is such good potting practice that I advise you to take it up to a limited extent. When playing as in Fig. 26, you should strike your ball centrally, and drop the red in the pocket at just the right strength to allow your ball to run through into similar position on the other side of the spot. Then you pot the red again, and, if your execution is good enough, you can make several of these hazards before loss of position compels you to try something else. As the spot-stroke is barred, I do not wish you to practice it with the idea of retaining position at all costs. My desire is to use it to teach you how to pot a ball, and I know of no better shot for this purpose.

How to Play Billiard (Chapter7)

In this chapter I am taking you back on the broad path of billiard progress.

Those all-round cannons and screw cannons, which I have dealt with in various other chapters of this book, are invariably extremely useful when you want them, and a working knowledge of the "drop cannon", which I went to some trouble to describe in the previous chapter, is something more than useful. But losing hazards are the acknowledged mainstay of English billiards. Every time you go in-off a ball you are allowed to place your ball where you please in the baulk half-circle. Melbourne Inman and Willie Smith made this the most potent factor in their play when winning the Championship in turn. That is how great the advantage is every time you make a well-played losing hazard, and the two wonderful cue-men I have named show what this advantage means when it is exploited to the utmost by a master...

'Something About Cannons' Trick For Best Player billiard "Chapter6"


The foregoing cannons may be regarded as rather spectacular examples of ball control in cannon play. I have instanced them because they show very clearly how you can control the path of the first object-ball, and also because they provide a change in stroke play which makes your practice more agreeable. But for every cannon of the type shown in Figs. 16 and 17 you will have to play a dozen or more of the sort known as "drop" cannons. Read More...Download Chapter6.rar

Ball To Ball Contact Part 2 (Tips & Trick) "Chapter5"

Figure 8 shows the most important ball-to-ball contact in the game of billiards. It is the half-ball stroke, and is made by aiming through the centre of your ball to the extreme edge of the object-ball. If you do this and strike your ball truly in its centre, the angle your ball will take after contact with the object-ball is known as the natural angle. It never varies unless you use side, screw, or forcing strength, and is in such constant request that I suppose I must score more than half my points in match play by the half-ball stroke, or very slight departures from it. Apart from its scoring value, however, the half-ball stroke serves as a standard of comparison for countless other shots. We speak of a shot being "wider" than a half-ball, or "narrower" than a half-ball, and although it is correct to say that the angle of departure after contact is more obtuse or more acute than the true half-ball, yet I prefer the "wider" and "narrower" familiar to generations of cue-men.

Ball To Ball Contacts (Tips&Trick) "Chapter4"

A little thought will show that no man can calculate the exact number of ball-to-ball contacts utilized in billiard playing. They are infinite, and are the main cause of that variety which is the great charm of the game. But in a playing sense, for instructional purposes, it is usual to divide the object-ball into certain sections, and to explain what happens when the different ball-to-ball contacts are established. Figures 7-11 show a range of ball-to-ball contacts which can be practiced with every advantage. Contacts differing slightly from those shown in my diagrams are often required, and are easily comprehended and made when you are familiar with the standardized contacts now illustrated.

WhereTo Hit a Billiard Ball

To begin with, I want you to understand how much of the surface of a billiard ball you really can hit. This is a good deal less than is often supposed. If you look at Fig. 3, which depicts a ball of standard size, the black portion of the diagram shows as much of the ball as you can hit effectively.

That is quite enough for any stroke you are likely to want. If you can hit your ball fairly in its centre, that will do splendidly for a multitude of plain-ball strokes. If you hit it as far to the right or left as the black circle indicates, you will be able to impart enough right or left side for any stroke on the table.

How To Strike a Billiard Ball (Chapter2)

There are a few people who have a natural cue action which enables them to strike a billiard ball properly without any training. This applies to about one player in a million, I should say, the remainder have to be taught how to hold a cue and swing it to advantage. The first thing I want you to understand is that you must strike your ball so that you make it both move and spin. Download file For More Trick Chapter2
