btw, one curious thing happened . we were playing doubles on friday and this week was something of a discrepancy because I retained my form till friday and was ripping forehands .. even though my waist and shoulder was sore afterwards... anyways back to topic , so we have this guy who comes in once in a while who has a very good pendulum serve , top, side and under and its very difficult to pick ... so we lost the first match badly .. even though he was playing with somebody who plays infrequently and was not in his best ... so I suddenly started noticing , I could tell his serve from the receiving side when my partner was actually receiving ... and then I realized that if we could cheat a little bit and stand towards to left of the table the contact was easier to tell ... passed that on to my partner and both my partner and I started ripping his serve ... gave me tremendous satisfaction even though we lost the next game 2-3 ..... so I guess the lesson is you can still win when you lose
