Bank the 13ball with a medium speed and position cue ball on the 9ball. This shot is not meant to pocket the 13ball, the speed of the shot is to position the 13ball on your side and play cue ball in the stack near the 9ball. Left hand spin will take you (naturally) to the 9ball.2013 DCC BENNY CONWAY JR v SHANE VAN BOENING PART II

Play the eight off the seven with high English and position the cue ball behind the 13 ball and then run out. I also like Billy's shot, but I think my shot is easier to execute.
YUP !
Rod.
My shot also.
ETA: I doubt I would run out from there, but I like my prospects.
Billy I has the right shot. I would definitely bank the 13 ball and go into the 9 ball. Its actually a pretty east shot. You have a wide margin of error to not leave a shot
Thanks for your endorsement Bill. In regard to the 13ball option there is no kiss, just a natural center ball spin (left english) will take you away from the kiss and put you on a path toward the 9ball. Also the option with cutting the 8ball is reserved for those pure shooters, not many out there who have the skills to pocket this type of shot with the consistency that's needed for this to be an option. OOPS!! unless you're trying to surmount a large lead. But if the game is close it's advisable not to shoot this type of shot unless you're in the upper echelon group. Also, if the 8ball option has a built in safety then by all means it's an option, however, with this particular option it doesn't appear that that's the case. Jmo.If its got a key and a Lock, BI has the combination :heh

I like Shane to cut the 8 in and slow his cue ball with the 12.
