When a player starts playing One-Pocket one of the things he'll see is some of the most fantastic and unbelievable pocket scratches. 9-Ball players who are used to turning the cueball loose are most susceptible to this. When they stop putting the cueball in a pocket is when they realize their game is going up. This is a little noticed but extremely large indicator of a player's talent.
Here are five pocket scratches by a few different players. Some are playing a simple safety and a couple are shooting at their pocket.
How would you figure they put the cueball in a pocket?
#1 Alex needs one from here playing Efren:
#2 Cliff is playing a simple safety vs. Kim Bennett:
#3 JR Gay answering Daultons break:
#4 Richie R. playing safe vs. Efren:
#5 Frost shooting at his pocket vs. Schmidt (SJD's fave):
