(From the back:)
"Hi, I’m Jake. Some of you might recognize me from my YouTube channel, @Billiards Guy. I am not a professional pool player, I am an enthusiast of the game. I also design and handcraft carbon fiber pool cues at LesadaCues.com.
This is a notebook I created to help my pool game, I use it as a training log. On the left of every page there are 3 blank pool table diagrams, and on the right, there is lined paper for writing.
You can use this notebook to track anything!
• Notes • Wins/Losses • Missed Shots • Trick Shots • Best Angles • Fellow Players’ Info
• Tournaments • Autographs • Quotes • Pool Philosophies
I hope you find this pool training notebook helpful in your pool journey."

JAKE'S POOL RULES
COMING SOON WITH THE UPDATED BCA WPA 2025 RULE CHANGES!
(Excerpt from the Introduction)
"...In this book I will also teach the simple American rules of 8-Ball, Chinese 8-Ball, 9-Ball,10-Ball, One-Pocket, Straight Pool, Snooker, Doubles, some suggested practice drills, and some tips and tricks I've picked up so far.
Like many games, rules can vary from place to place, but we will be using BCA (Billiard Congress of America) and WPA (World Pool Association) rules, which are the same, and widely accepted here in the states.
Throughout this book I will be giving you information to the best of my knowledge, but at this time, I highly recommend using this as a beginner's guide to your journey in to the world of pool, as a hobby and a sport. I am always learning, and hope you are too..."
