I would cross the 9 ball to come across to just under the 10 ball and put the cue ball on the rail up table. The key is trying to double him up on the 10 9 balls. It will be real hard for cooney to not leave you a good shot attempt from that position.
you need all the balls the last thing you want to do is to put them up table if you have any other choice.
the best shot is if you can get past the side pocket is to long rail bank the 15 and come around 3 rails for position for the run out.
next best if the table is super fast is to spin bank the 15 and draw your cueball over and down behind the other balls and run out or leave him covered.
average players would sell out on both of these shots.
third, if the other two arent acceptable is to cross the nine.
if you sell out rack them up.
Didn't read everything but if someone said to do this then this is what I like. Need to keep all the balls in play. Get the nine to my side and protect it with the ten ball.
