Question

My window won't show up for pool on yahoo?

Answer 1

the pop up window senario that the first person to answer you is correct, you need to disable your pop-up blocker.  However, I have been having this problem too with just about every yahoo game that I have been playing.  what I have found is that I need to continually refresh each page I go to and I also need to clear out my history, cookies, and items in my internet folder. If I do that, I get on every time.  If I don't the window acts like it is going to open, but then won't. Or it opens and then closes again, only to reopen but not have me at that table.  It has been a pain in the rear , but no one seems to have a solution to it.

Answer 2

Popup Blockers are most often to blame for trouble playing Y! Pool, followed closely by out of date java.

Hold in the Ctrl button when you create/join a table,and this will bypass your popup blockers.

Java is a quick and simple update, only taking a couple of minutes even on dialup.

If you are just having trouble learning the controls to use when playing, here is an old standby I use whenever anyone comes into a pool room and asks,"How do you shoot?"

>>>>>>HOW TO SHOOT<<<<<<<<

When shooting the cue ball, use the left mouse button to move the cue stick

around the cue ball. When you have positioned the cue stick where you want,

click and hold the right mouse button. Pull back on the mouse until you have

the desired power (displayed on the right side of the table). Let go of the right

mouse button to take your shot. To move the cue ball when you have ball in hand,

simply left-click the cue ball and drag it to the desired spot and drop it.

For more precise aiming you may use the arrow keys to line up your shot as well.

I hope this puts you on the path to fun and games!
