I know I have not been posting in a while...but I just finished lurking and read some of the wwyd's and a recurring thought occurred...
I go to the table with the following thoughts...
1. What can I do offensively...(pure offense)
2. Where is the worst place to put the cue ball for my opponent.(pure defense)
3. How can I survive this inning...
These have served me well and are a bastardized list from Dr. Bill's instructional DVD.
However I have to repeat what Hacker said in one of the wwyd's. Force your opponent to shoot a shot to improve your position and get the next shot. For me that is illuminating, forcing your opponent to improve your position not his and also on how he plays the game. I don't usually think of that as I approach the table.
I try to keep it simple without a lot of clutter to decide what to shoot.
Ya'lls thoughts on this?

PS I don't usually post on the wwyd's because I play to squeeze not shoot most of the time. Waiting for my opponent to make the first mistake. That may be a wrong way to play but I am definitely not a shooter...
