Many pool players begin playing when they see their friends playing pool and decide to give it a shot. They get a couple quick lessons about how to aim and hold the cue stick. They also get an overview of the rules. If they're lucky, they'll continue to get some advice while practicing with their friends. That's it. Rarely does a player seek out books or information to help their game. Rarely does a player try and find a professional to get a couple lessons in.

It does not matter if you play 8-Ball, 9-Ball or any other billiards game, the lessons given in this book will help you to improve your game.
