Score is -1 to 0, you have the -1.

Not a lot of options, take a risk, take a foul, or see something else?

Take a deliberate foul. Slow roll the cue ball to the upper left pocket. I assume your pocket is lower left.

take a foul and kick one rail long towards your opponent's pocket. They wont shoot the 1 with your 15 by your pocket.

I do not like the kick of the long rail to get under the ball by his side as i think you need to kill it with inside. I do not like the one rail of the sort riali to get ther so I think I am two rail / actulay 4 rial at the bottom of the ball by his hole long rail short rial to hit his long rail right at the first diamond and release into his ball. aiming at underhitting htis not over so speed to at least hit the 4th rail but not much more

This is an easy scenario for Efren, just skim the 12 gently placing it by your hole and let the cb roll off the rail in-behind the 7/9 to protect your 12 ball.
Now you are on equal standing with your opponent!
thanks for the wwyd! We appreciate it!

Very nice, simple way out of an ugly trap. And not just surviving the inning, you give your opponent a pickle to gnaw on. Good imagination Whitey. !

I might shoot this shot if the 2 railer could go, if you hit it good , you could run out from here. Unfortuneately ,according to my calculations , the one is in the path. Plus you could leave a bank very easily if it were not , even if you hit it great.

Chip off your stripe ball and put him on the wrong side of the stack above that 7?
I like this one too. As long as you hide the ball you chip and don't bump open those balls at the top of the stack, you should be ok. The ball you chip could end up quite near your pocket as a very real counter-threat.

so the chip off the ball is ok to get you out of the inning but I think that you are going to be in more trouble after your opponent three rails the 9 ball and freezes you between the 2 and three

Cut seven ball into rail and bank it into fuzzy ball knocking it towards your pocket sending cue ball up table

One rail the top stripe to your hole, CB 2 rails to your side above the side pocket. You need the 6 ball to block his corner shot.

My decision is the 2-Rail kick at the stripe with enough pace to get it to the rail and follow it a bit with CB, hoping to get CB high enough to avoid the volley of skimming off of my threat and pack sticking me again. I am decent enough not to fear the scratch, but it is a risk.
Keep the CB low enough that he won't try a short bank cross-corner also. Just enough pace to protect my ball.
