So after watching The Hustler, The Color Of Money, and Poolhall Junkies in the last couple of days, I've decided I want to be a better pool player- the kind that sinks balls on purpose, not by luck. So yesterday Paul started by taking me to Clicks for a couple of hours for lessons on the 9 foot tables. I never realized how physically taxing a sport pool can be. Both my back and my right arm are really sore today. It was really cool though. I'm learning how to control the cue ball so I can play position and plan my shots, a pretty obvious strategy, but still one I never really thought about because well, I've never really been that good a player. Hopefully that will change in the next few months.
