Well, like Ben, Mitch and Larry said, that was the only good shot I saw too..I played off the 9 down to the bottom rail and it ended up like this:




This was more of a shot where I wanted to live to see another day and it worked.

He played off the 3 thin to take me back up table and I ended up getting a chance to clear some balls away and I won the game. Goes to show, sometimes you just have to get to the next inning without selling the farm, let them make a mistake first or get a better view next shot.

I'm surprised he played off the 3. Looks like he could have banked the 13 straight back into the 3 balls, and hid the CB behind the stack.

never mind, you said into the stack...he could not cut the 13 back into the 3 balls because the CB would have ran into the 1 probably selling it out. (the pic may be deceiving of the angle)

I like making the 3 carom thin, off the six into my opponents pocket. Bank the six to my side and draw whitey too the backside of the 13. Good chance of making the six.

I like it Bill!

As long as you dont come up too high and give away the 1, that's as good shot ~

Nice shot but requires very high accuracy as easy to get a kiss on the 6 if CB hits the 3 a tad too thick or draw past the potting angle on the 1 if a tad too thin

Also, you can park your cue ball on top of the one ball after making the clip pocket 3 then 6 ball bank. No player will be too aggressive when jacked up. Slowing your swing speed down will also give you perfect control of your cue ball stop shot.
