10 Essential Billiard Pool Tips No Beginner Can Do Without | Snooker

Skip to content

If you are a beginner at playing billiards, you may wonder how long it will take for you to get to an intermediate or pro level. The truth is that your dedication to practice is what will determine how quickly you will master billiards. However, you cannot ignore some basic rules, if you want to progress faster. Here are 10 billiard pool tips you must master to improve your game.

1. Develop the right pool stance. Having a strong pool stance is critical to playing well. Stand strong so that you don’t fall over if someone accidentally bumps into you.

2. Chalk before every shot. Chalk your tip before making any shot. If you don’t chalk, you are likely to miscue your shots.

3. Hold the cue stick properly. There are different ways of holding the cue. Make sure the cue is aligned to your body in a way that you can easily swing it.

4. Use ghost ball aiming for visualization. To make great shots, imagine a “ghost ball” in front of the object ball you want to strike. The ghost ball will help you visualize where you should hit the object ball.

5. Learn the proper aiming technique. Don’t exaggerate your aims. Take time, visualize the cue ball and aim properly.

6. Make a stable hand bridge A hand bridge is one of the two physical contacts you will make with your pool cue. Try different hand bridges to find one that you are most comfortable with.

7. Learn how to break The way you break will set the tempo of the game. As a beginner, break by hitting the center. Avoid hitting at crazy angles.

8. Be confident Confidence is critical if you are to play pool well. Sometimes, all you need is confidence to make a difficult shot.

9. Play safe to increase your chances of winning in pool, winning is everything. Play safe, if necessary, to win. Don’t rush only to lose the game.

10. Practice Keep practicing every day to improve your skills. The more you practice, the faster you will improve your skills.
