3 BEST Ways To Break With 9 On The Spot! (No Breakbox)

Great results for me after this tip ! I ll enjoy pool much more now for sure :)

This video is very helpful. Thank you!

Break 3

I hope you can make a video how to play 14-1 to get high run balls.😄

Love all them ❤... just need to go to work and see what 1 is the best

As I move up the divisions the break starts to make the difference between winning and losing. Thanks for this, I’ll try all of them.

Great video. Can u pls make a video on how to break for 8 ball?

Another great video. I will definitely be trying out these methods. One thing I need to obtain is a consistent break whereas at this moment, it's hit and miss.

Excellent video, Niels! I really enjoy watching your videos.
I recently subscribed to your channel and have learned a lot already.
I have always wondered how these 9-ball break shots were hit. Thanks for sharing this valuable information.
Where is the cue ball placed? It looks like it’s on the second diamond and about a ball and a half away from the cushion. Is this correct?
Thanks!

Great job champ. Thank you very much!!! My favorite break is the second. I think that it gives me the shot on the oneball most of the times and it is very important!!! One question if you may...How do you pronounce your name phoneticly? FA-IEN or FE-IEN? Greetings from Greece!!! Keep up the good job!!!

can you do one with the 1 on the spot in league we have to have the 1 on the spot

Hands down, you have the best informational videos out right now. Your drills are top notch and very humbling, your info and directions given are clear and concise, and above all, the stuff you do, just makes sense and greatly helps my game. I have increased immensely since I have started watching your stuff. You are one of my favorite players to watch. Thanks for making the pool realm so much better

I have never seen a tournament that used 9 on the spot break. Only the Pros use that? Right??

love from indonesia

What is the three point rule and 9 on the spot means where the one ball would usually sit?

Dale Marner

Would you do the same on a 7 foot table with a normal triangle rack? Is there a secret for that?

Very generous. You seem like a really nice pool player.

Thank you Nils :-)) I tryed 3h Breaks before i saw that video an was exactly on the Point with the Question: What can i change for more Goodness ? The Answer is now: 1. One more Tip down on the Cueball and 2. Move the Cueball back to the Rail (Just for my self Hit). All other Factors was same safe ;-) Greetings from Berlin

can you make an 8 ball breaking video?

Beautiful knowledge. Love all breaks…

Another great video. Can’t wait to start practicing them.

Neils are you coming out to the Texas Open in September?

Ive been using 2 for a while. I like it.

I like breaking from the box and most times i have a ball that pockets but rarely do i have a shot

I always love to see the Vintage Django Bustamante, Antonio Gabica, Rodolfo Luat, Johny Archer, Thorsten Hohmann, Explosive breaks. Somewhere like 32mph breaks.

Firmer break, trying to make two.

Great video Niels!

I always scratch when I do that!

Niels you are my top three favorite players of all time along with reyes and svb. The reason for that is two fold - a) you are an absolutely phenomenal player but b) the way you are giving back to the pool community with these amazing videos that are good in communication, detail, and precision is quite fabulous. I am a huge fan now!

Thanks Niels

So my take on this is that all of your breaks are cut breaks going into the rail that is at the same side from where you're breaking.... One is medium, one is firm, one is trying to over-cut the ball, so all are kinda the same but speed is difference?

Another question here buddy. You're breaking great but I think it has to do with it being your own table. I can imagine you going to the next tournament and doing exactly that but it never works that way right? Lets assume that is the case and your break in the tournament is completely different. What would you do then? Thats the real question. (even with changing sides, it still is far different results from what you see in your own table) -- cause that happened to me.

Niels, are those pockets tightened, or are they standard dynamic size?

It would be interesting if you gave this same lesson/demonstration using a wood rack.

Great video Niels, much love from Texas!

Thanks!

Where do you aim the 1 for the second break? It looks like you aim that the one comes between the corner pocket and the 1 or 2 diamond on the short rail

Thanks for the video.
I try to do this break shot. Thoudands of times ... every day ... i m frustrated .... no succes
There is something essencial, something super important, the STROKE
You need a special STROKE something different to "push" the WING-BALL towards the pocket ...
In my oppinion after hundreds hours trying to produce consistenlly this special STROKE, ... something that you dont explain in your video.

Please i need help ... some advices for that kind of special stroke ???

THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Since I'm not a native English speaker, the only thing I didn't understand, in the various breaks did you always hit the cue ball in the center? Thanks for a reply

How far out from the rail do you place the cube ball?

Ok so just got down watching numerous match highlights from the recent 2024 premier tourney. 9 ball on the spot & breaking inside the box. Everyone and I mean everyone is breaking too left ish or top right ish and all using the cut break with cue to side rail. That apparently must be the best odds. Oh and they are doing alternate break. I been playing 9 on spot and doing the cut break in the box. It’s obvious less balls go in on the break so less runouts a plus alternate break stopping multiple runouts. Back and forth action and only race to 5. Makes sense on several reasons why they have implemented these new rules & format. Long gone are the days of running 3, 4, 5+ racks in a row from the old school 9 ball days. Cheers.

Cut break worked great. Thanks

Good video. In your opinion when breaking from the box with the 9 on the spot do you think it’s a better strategy to do the cut break & always try to make the 1 ball in the side or to break to get position on the 1 ball down table? Thanks

Do you have a video for 9 on the spot with a breakbox? I'm practicing for a tournament and haven't found a video yet

Thank you for videos 😍

Congratulations on how far you went in the US Open I was pulling for you

What i still don't get is... where to place the CB? 1 ball distance from the rail?
