Don't poke it. Stroke it!
 

Foks, this is about as perfect as a pool stroke gets. Shane Van Boening of South Dakota. IMO, the best pool player in the USA. Warm up strokes before a pay for view match against Earl Strickland.

A few things that i noticed, The glove on the bridge hand, not seen that before but it does make sense no chock, lots of distance between the bridge and the ball on lots of his shots. Plus from the point of contact he must really put some stuff on that cue ball.

Cool!

Cheers Richard

And welcome back Paul

One guy on the live stream chat of a match Shane was playing said something like: "Yeah, look at that dork. Playing with a cheap Cuetec cue, wearing a glove.
He should be easy to beat."

Lots of LOL in response..

Cuetec pays Shane to use one of their cues. Somehow I doubt it's just like the ones they sell. ;)
