Looking for a Billiard pool class for beginner in NYC?
Hi
I would like to learn how to play pool in nyc. I did some research online but I could not find good resources. Is there any recommendation? Don’t need to learn from “professional”, I just want to learn as a beginner. Thank you!
I know NYC has a lot of places but it is not easy for me (by myself) for grab table and stick..
Not sure if some places have a group lesson or something.
Thank you in advance for advise!
You can get in on group lessons at Amsterdam Billiard Club. You might want contact other pool halls and see if they have similar deals.

Excerpt: Bank pool is a Pocket billiards game that has as it most fundamental requirement, that all scoring shots in the game to be made by banking a called ball off a cushion and into a called pocket. While the game has multiple variations, the predominant version through much of its history was played with a full fifteen-ball rack , of which the winning player was required to legally pocket eight balls. A shortened version of the game using nine balls of which the players must legally pocket five for the win, often called “nine-ball banks,” gained popularity in the 1990s and 2000s and is the subject of international professional competition and televised matches.Rules Aim The object of the game is simple: to be the first player to bank five balls in any order (or eight balls, when played with a full rack).Rack The balls are racked in nine-ball formation (or eight-ball formation if using a full rack), but in no particular order.Play The key rule is that all shots must be banked (cue ball to object ball , then object ball to one or more cushions on the way to the pocket ).Bank pool is one of the “cleanest” (no “slop “) pool games no kick shots (the object ball must be hit directly with the cueball, without hitting the rail first); no combinations (shots must be cue ball to the object ball, then object ball to the called pocket, and the shooter must call both the ball and pocket); and the object ball cannot hit another ball |
