link to old tread.

thought I'd try get this going again.

basically tell us your strengths and weaknesses,
I'll go first

Strengths:
Long potting(when on form),
Cue ball control,
Snookering,
Fairly good tactician,
Pulling off a shot that not many would see as possible i.e when it looks like nothing is on.


Weaknesses:
Long shots down the rail,
Very tight cuts,
Being on msn at same time as pool,
Escaping snookers,
overly aggressive sometimes.


Also, not payin attention and potting opponents ball thinking it was mine, this still hasnt changed since the last thread

Very true, but some are much less bad at it than others

Good luck finding another player in the top 100 that has a worse aim than me lol

Strengths:
- Waiting for the random shot penalty (as it often plays better than me)

Weaknesses:

I think it still holds true to this day.
