No doubt that I would like to get the q to where you say but when I looked at the picture it seemed to me that to get the q there required more power and maybe one of the balls would leak out to the other side of the stack, like maybe the nine ball. Maybe I just play too cautious.lll said:frank wouldnt you want the q by the opposite corner to your pocket like in post #3 so that the group of balls around the stack are blokers.??
with the q in the middle there is a more direct shot at clearing your balls /playing safe by your opponent ??
yes?/no?

PS..Mark in Houston...Look after our boy... Please don't rob him if he is impaired..
frank thanks for the commentary. its VERY educational when players explain why they hit their shot .Frank Almanza said:No doubt that I would like to get the q to where you say but when I looked at the picture it seemed to me that to get the q there required more power and maybe one of the balls would leak out to the other side of the stack, like maybe the nine ball.

It looks like that to get the q to the corner that would require more of a center ball hit with left and that would require a harder hit.

Cowboy Dennis said:Daulton has the lower right-hand pocket, as you view the screen. He's down 1-0 in games and this is his second shot this game. What would you do?

I don't think you do, Frank...instead, like you and I discussed one time - a lot of the onepocket.org wei-players like to do things with the cueball/balls that Efren could only dream of... - Ghost
I didn't forget, just been busy. He banked the 1 into the 2 and the 2 came back up and kissed it .androd said:I played Mark a few today before my Protagonist showed. We set up the shot from this thread and I made it off the 2 ball second shot. 1st shot it went up and back. Both shots the CB went behind the stack.
Dennis please post what was shot, I'll be very surprised if the CB went down table.
Rod.
PS, If it did the shooter needs to read the Beards book.
PPS, I made a 60 % comeback today, so being hopeful helped.
