CatFishBreath vs. E. Reyes

[Cowboy Dennis]

Well, the co-commentators have called him Brownback, Brownbeck, Brumbrick, Bromburg, and who knows how many other variations, but I think CatFishBreath is easier and more descriptive. Anyway, CFB has a 2-0 lead against Effie and it's his shot. What would you do?

well you all know im not a bank pool player.....
but here is what i would do

 

[androd]

I'd shoot this or try.
Rod.
P.S. It's the shot that's easiest for me to reach, and play safer.

9 to the corner

Bank the 2 ball straight back.

Bank the 2 ball straight back.

That's definitely one choice but you will be bridging over the 4 and the 6 and leaving the 3, 6 or 4 ball cross-side if you miss.

Hey it's about damn time!! I've been a watin and a watin.

This is one of the few shots that I remember what i did. I'll just say that no one has picked the shot I shot....yet CFB

PS: thanks for finally getting around to putting one up.I heard that it was easy to do though JK haha. :sorry I know it's alot of trouble and thanks again for all you do around here.Without you it would be very dead

With a 2 zip lead I would either play the 9 cross corner and stop the q ball or use the bridge and play the 3 ball straight back. If I was behind 2 zip I would play the 9 ball cross side and run into the 2 balls by the spot and open up the action.

It looks like the angle might be a little thin, but I am guessing that John made the 9-ball cross-side with a low-left cueball, drawing off the 6-ball. This is a hanger because the cueball is so close to the 9. And I'm sure that John made it.

 

[John Brumback]

The 9 is layin for the cross corner alot better than cross side.But having the lead I decided to shoot more of a free shot.That guy can make a few banks every now and then:lol CFB

My first thought would be to straight back the 2-ball -- it looks like your cue just fits in between the balls and also looks like you could kill the cue ball right there at about pocket speed.

A lefty could do the same thing with the 7-ball, but since I'm not lefty the only other shot I see those bankers shoot when they are thinking "free" is the two-railer on the 8-ball like so:

 

[Cowboy Dennis]

Well Ole CatFishBreath got up there and spanked that 3 ball straight-back, left-handed, as if his still was riding on it. Yeah right, the next bank he makes left-handed will be the 1st.



After teasing us for a minute he got the bridge and shot the 3 ball straight-back:sorry.

Just put the next shot up,will ya!!!!!:lol John the Clipp ER!!!!! CFB

 

[Big Jim]

straight back

straight back

Since i am right handed, but play left handed i would reach over and play the three ball straight back with a lot of confidence.
