Review

UPSCALE NINE-BALL Many pool players progress from playing casual EIGHT-BALL with friends to playing in organized leagues. The next most probable step is to play NINE-BALL, and specifically, NINE-BALL tournaments. The game of NINE-BALL requires some skills not required in EIGHT-BALL, the Push-Out shot is an example. This book is aimed at the EIGHT-BALL player that wants to become proficient at the game of NINE-BALL. UPSCALE NINE-BALL is intended for intermediate to advanced pool players. The majority of this book is devoted to those shots and strategies associated specifically with the game of NINE-BALL. The value of this book can best be expresses by the reviewers: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- POOL & BILLIARD MAGAZINE, November, 2000 by Thomas C. Shaw -- BOOK REVIEW "The question most people want answered when it comes to an instruction book is: Will this book help my game? The answer is resounding YES." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fredric Fechter, Teacher/Instructor CUESPORT COLLEGE "For the advanced cuiest, "UPSCALE NINE-BALL" will certainly be a blessing and accelerate one's ability. Jack Koehler is a great teacher." BILLIARDS DIGEST MAGAZINE, June 2001 by Kyle Chiner -- BOOK REVIEW "In his latest offering to billiard libraries nationwide, Upscale Nine-Ball, Koehler gives prospective 9-ball experts all the tools they need to become a thoroughbred in their own room or to take the game to any level they want to achieve." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ALL ABOUT POOL EVERYWHERE MAGAZINE, November, 2000 -- BOOK REVIEW "This is a book that can be referred to over and over. You can read it straight through, choose a chapter, or just thumb through it. What you will gain is an understanding of the game of nine ball from an entirely different perspective. A perspective of fact." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jay Helfert, Tournament Producer/Director "A lot more than 9-ball here! One of the most comprehensive works on the game of pocket billiards ever produced. A wealth of valuable information for all levels of players. Anyone serious about pool must have this book." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- James W. Cheek (private communication) "I received my copy of UPSCALE NINE-BALL, by Jack Koehler, a couple weeks ago. I find this book to be most enlightening and educational. I am enjoying it immensely and will be a pro soon, I hope, after reading this book. It is probably the best book I have come across yet."
