When these situations come up I am going to save & post them just to show what different great players do from these leaves. Of course, an inch or two makes all the difference (doesn't it always?) but it'll still be fun. I think it'll be interesting to see what different players do in this spot.
These first two layouts come from the 1991 Legends Of One Pocket-Philadelphia Style tournament and feature Mizerak and Varner.
I can't go through the games shot by shot so I'll just show the leave the shooter left and tell you what happened. Best I can do.
By the way, this Mizerak/Varner match is a semi-final, the other semi featured Hopkins/Cook. This was a very good match and you should see it. It runs almost 4 hours & two DVD's and is worth every penny. It's available here:http://www.1vshop.com/Accu-Stats/st...+Mizerak++vs.+Nick+Varner+(DVD)+<B>+(SF)+</B>
Anyway, here is the 1st layout with Miz shooting.
He banked the ball back under him to his left and left Varner this straight-back. Varner almost drained it:
A few shots later in the same game Mizerak left Varner here and Nick tried the same thing, banking the ball back to his right:
He left a two-railer that Miz put very close to his pocket:
So, if you're keeping score (as I am), that's 0-2 for good players safely banking that ball back up under them.
