Some guy made a recent post on AZ asking about players that reached a “pro” level in their playing ability after picking pool up “late” in life—like maybe late teens. Jay Helfert responded to the guy and he brought up a topic that I have been thinking about lately—“long sessions”. He defined “long session” as 8 hours or more.
In the not too distant past, I had 15 hour session with a better player, and as crazy as it sounds, I think that one session alone improved my game a smidge. It is hard for me to articulate how, but I believe it did.
I am interested in hearing the thoughts of people on this board about how or if long sessions accelerate improvement? Basically, I have a tendency to think a 14-hour session offers a greater benefit to skill development than two seven-hour sessions.
Thoughts, disagreements?
