Hi,

Do you have any tips or video on how to play against a player who stays close to the table and blocks a lot of their returns?

Hi Martin,

Th most important thing is to vary the spin and speed on the ball and not play fast too often.

We do have a tutorial on this in our "Playing Against" Series on Playing A Blocker.
