It's amazing how one can view different instructional DVDs and learn unique things about playing pool from each one, even though there is some overlap. This DVD falls into that category. It covers a wide assortment of techniques and systems, but it sticks to simple explanations and demonstrations. Most of the material contained in this volume is learnable by the average pool player, so you won't get frustrated watching a shot on the DVD, but then being unable to reproduce the results at the table. Recommended.
