Lou's definitely not an imbecile. What the hell is CTE?

This imbecile Lou Figueroa talks about everyone being a keyboard warrior and then he gets challenged and offered the 6 and the break because of his big mouth and runs away with his tail between his legs. He then tries to challenge the moderator of az billiards to a match lol What a tool!

He just been warned for being tool we all know he is :)
-------------------------------------------------

I can see that I should have stuck to my original knee jerk reaction that was to ban Lou.
He'd been put on notice and it didn't take him 24 hours to revert to form.

Guys are right. I shouldn't have inferred that he's a NIT.
I should have just disciplined him accordingly.


For future reference, Lou and detractors...take note.
If you are in an aiming thread and you are not a productive part of the conversation and I determine that you are merely arguing and baiting the people that are here to learn from whomever.....I will not make comment.

I guess they get annoyed by guys like that imbecile Lou who keeps on pestering the adults when they are discussing aiming systems lol. If you ever seen both the videos from Lou that were on the net, you would think he would be the first one in line to learn an aiming system lol. He is not even capable of debating aiming systems, he relies on others to carry the debate because he such an imbecile. ;)

I went over to AZ out of curiosity knowing as interesting as those discussions are, I really
just don't have time for them (at the moment). I've missed a lot. Apparently there are now
two competeing systems that people are excited about: 1) CTE and 2) TOI. I've skimmed some
of the discussions and it reminds me a lot of the old RSB discussions. I see PJ managed to
get himself banned over there recently too. Too bad because free debate is the only way for
the truth to have a chance. I get that people feel he was banned not for his opinion but for
basically being a dick too many times. I see both sides but still think you don't ban
someone who loves the game and loves to discuss it. For now, I'm going to have to fight the
urge to find out what these systems are about even though I'm pretty curious - look its after
midnight again. Good night...

LOL, one more I just noticed. Apparently CJ Wiley (who markets the TOE system) just stated
that Corey Deuel is already "shooting much better" using TOE. Not just better but "much
better"! How the hell would Coery Deuel notice if he's shooting much better when he never
missed a shot before he started using it?

Cte and Toi are apples and oranges. One is an aiming system and the other is a technique to pocket balls and can be added on to anyone's own method of aiming (it’s like a stoke technique, sliding the cue ball with stun into object ball) Corey duel comment is BS lol Cj mentioned TOI one time and some got very interested and Cj ran with it like it was the greatest thing since sliced bread :) Cj is a smart dude! lol

Here's a worthwhile video of Lou shooting a number of interesting racks at the 2009 DCC within the format of Bob Jewett's commendable annual 14.1 Challenge.

He's clearly a very intelligent, meticulous player with a stroke that's quite ideal for the precise CB moves involved in both 14.1 and One-Pocket. It's quite evident that he's familiar with every millimeter of the CB's "clock face."

Lou's approach to pattern play as well as his pace and execution is extremely similar to Danny Diliberto in his top playing days (and that's no small compliment if you were fortunate enough to see Danny D. at any of the 1960s and 70s World Straight Pool Championships held frequently in NYC and L.A.

The analysis of Lou's play during this 20-minute clip is by the very savvy Dave Sapolis, himself a frequent 200-ball runner.

I've been telling budding 14.1 students for years about walking around the table frequently during the navigation of each rack, and it's hard to put that advice more insightfully -- and actually quite eloquently -- than when you hear Dave expressing it as (paraphrasing): "Gaining the habit of regularly walking around the table *adds depth to your Straight Pool game*."

Thank's Ernie. Yeah, Lou's the man. Hundred ball runner (which speaks volumes on its own to
the pool world). Very knowledgeable and articulate about pool and very generous with his
time giving forum-dwellers advice. Definitely not an imecile. This Hunter guy? I'm not so
sure...

Wow, then imagine the world beater one could be using both of them together!
