    Fastest way for a beginner to get two balls better

    Of all the pool games, one pocket is the only game I can say a beginner can get two balls better in a short time from watching matches with good commentating. The first time I played one pocket was a few years back and I played Harold Mcabee for 500 a game, getting 10-7 and I lost 8 in a row and...
