"To Do or Not to Do"

| THE average amateur really wants to know two things about his billiards ; first, what he can do ; secondly, what he cannot do. Perhaps my meaning would be better expressed if I said that it will pay the average amateur if he knows what it will profit him to attempt, and what he had better leave alone. This does not apply exclusively, or even mainly, to individual strokes. As regards these, I think that a bold policy is the best. The man who lacks enterprise when the run of the balls is difficult, will lose much pleasure and many games. Scoring sequences are more the kind of thing I have in mind at the moment, and after my cautionary remarks concerning spot-end play in my last chapter, I think I may as well continue in a similar vein as regards close-cannons, by which I mean those runs of nursery cannons so often seen in conjunction with top-of-the-table billiards when a first-rate professional is at work. | |||
