v, your shot's no good - Alex would just kick in the 3-6 combo in a heartbeat, and start running balls...
Rod's obvious snooker-safety is the only shot that I'd choose to do shoot here...but since Dennis posted it up, maybe Efren did something weird.

Sorry about the "which pocket" goof, nothing like a week off work to mess up my thought process
. Efren did play a safety similar to what Rod showed and he disturbed those two balls by Alex's pocket. Efren did have the lower left-hand pocket.
I posted this because I've often wondered whether mistakes and incorrect shots are "accumulated" & hurt you or if you can overcome them with the "correct" shot later. I guess it goes both ways sometimes, and sometimes it doesn't
.
I'm wondering if anyone would choose a different safety from here (original layout) if they knew it was Efrens 3rd to last shot of the match, which he lost?
Here's how he left it for Alex.
