    Sad that no one yet pounded da like button on this.
  2. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    NL, The makers of the vid... the cute Baerong-Yorong women, now are coaches at this guy's club. Yes, this stroy of this guy is a LOT more common these days as the pros retiring and opening clubs/coaching are modern 2 wing spinning players, a stark contrast to old-school Korean way of TT play...
  3. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    LDM7, I know you really did not like or agree with me when I said it yesterday... but what NL just articulated is exactly why I said your losses (in the manner you lost badly) were valuable data.

    IB66, You ought to come to USA and play some tourneys... and face some 10-11 yr old boys whose fathers will FLOG them if they lose to an overweight middle-aged man !!! When they are halfway through match and losing points and games and the father is there giving the stink-face and death...

  6. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    On the contrary, vs the pips player, you were playing on less than 1/2 efficiency and easily handled everything without taking undo risk. You knew he wasn't going to threaten your return and you flat hit or medium spin attacked whenever you wanted to.
  7. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    I bolded some text above. This is also a hugely important thing in TT. One may not win games or matches, but may have improved astronomically. Look at how one makes shot decisions, how they construct points, how they handle pressure/adversity, how they attempt the shots they should when and...
  8. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Hi dingyibvs, You are getting into the territory of strategic development decisions (implement shots and lose points now in matches) vs tactical decision making (doing the things to win points in a match) This is an incredibly important aspect of TT. Every player has to ask themselves how...

  10. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    I privately told Sergey Scoobie Doo (and dammit, he had better comment !!) that LDM7's oppnoents (3 of them) could not successfully loop a long medium spin underspin ball if you paid them $100 cash money. When you face such an opponent, an easy adjustment to attacking their serves and missing...
  11. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Sometimes it is just ONE adjustment that gets you back in it, sometimes two. Summer 2021 in 888 teams I face a girl who get the spy memo on how to serve to me... I would attack and miss... so I had to gear it down... and return underspin, she didn't loop, was tricky to get it low enough not to...
  12. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    LDM7 today saw up front close and personal how development in training and competition works. it simply does not transfer right away. 6 months is a pretty damn fast timeline for something to improve in training and have it be an asset in a competitive match. LDM7 was ranked bottom of group, but...
  13. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    IB66, vs Dave... IB66, I know you won and that counts... Understand what went on and that you should have won so damn easy, or a lot easier than you did. Unless you give Dave a ball with the lightest of spin, he could not attack any ball long, I mean underspin long balls. You were not in any...
  14. Westchester Table Tennis?

    All the jokers on the forum who WISH that TT would be inexpensive to run and that the government has an obligation to pay the lion's share of a TT club's expenses (facilities/power/heat/water/maintenance) (by providingg the facility and upkeeping it) either have their head up their azz real deep...
  15. Westchester Table Tennis?

    Upsidedowncarl lives in NYC and can give you a lot better run down of NYC TT action. BTW, owner(s) of Ping Pod have been opening up location after location in NYC.
  16. Westchester Table Tennis?

    Yes, getting to Westchester if you live in Queens or Flushing is not quick. The founder of Westchester, along with the 2500+ manager I believed lived in that direction Near Westchester's location)... and one of the founders had enough funds or could get enough funds to build the place... and...
  17. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    LDM7 had a visit from Sergey Scoobie Doo. Saw a lot of good things to improve on figuring out. There is a certain BH short arm flat shot LDM7 wants by Christmas... he will likely have it by summer if he incrementally works on it. LDM7's performance vs blocking spinny loops jumped a few...
  18. Nexy Korea Oscar interviews V. Samsonov !! JSK too

    Yes, such a level of comp and using crap balls not new is wrong. Where I am at a player would pull a new ball out of his azz if the match ball was crap.
  19. Nexy Korea Oscar interviews V. Samsonov !! JSK too

    JSH said something similar in the interview... said that with old serve rules, you really had to read the serve and get it back.
