Einige sehr interessante Informationen und Tipps. Manches davon ist vielleicht nicht für jedermann relevant, so sind für mich - als jemand der nur einfach mal gerne Pool spielt - die Ausführungen über Nervosität bei Turnieren nebensächlich. Aber insgesamt ganz interessant.

Good review

I have been away from the game for 40 years and I gained the information that I needed to ready myself quickly.
