A shot they've never faced before? Er, what?
Yes, in pool players sometimes come to the table with a shot that they personally have not ever had to deal with.
Well, he should have studied some kicking systems and he would have a chance.
The paths were there.

Thanks John.
I never knew you to be a man of such few words... or numbers.
Did you receive my reply to your latest PM?
Can you please clarify what you mean? Is it 8 for one direction or is it 4 for one direction x 2 for a total of 8 for both directions?
I'd like to ask a few more questions but if you'd rather not go into it I understand.
Best Wishes.
PS What happened to my Cap Letters when you quoted me?
It is four in each direction. So depending on the shot you can discard four as you walk to the table. That leaves four and of those you can discard two immediately which leaves two of which one will work. And if you have practiced enough the one that works is immediately clear. If not then you might have to flip a coin.
You can post any shot you want and someone will tell you what CTE perception covers it. For some shots there is no CTE solution (key). In those situations the player has to rely on pool sense and use whatever else he has in tool box to figure the shot out. I personally find very very very few shots that have no CTE solution.

He's not talking about normal shots. This was about virtually impossible shots that now he can make at least 50% of the time. In a game situation you would most likely, 98%, of the time be playing safe in this situation.
And then multiply by six for all the pockets,lol.
Yes correct.
I have however had times when the safe was as difficult as the direct shot to the pocket and having chosen to go for it CTE pulled my ass out by giving me 100% confidence in the aim.
I have made some unreal hairy shots at times thanks to CTE aiming. Shots where I 100% WOULD NOT have gone for and taking the risky safe instead thinking it was a better bet.
And then there are the clutch shots. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU CTE for all the clutch shots I now make that I used to dog out of aiming fear.
So cte is for improving your chances at making flyers in the course of a game?
Yep, that's a bonus. If all you have is a flyer then CTE gives you a better shot at it.
Come to OKC and I will show you in person in a little $100 a game action on the bartable. ;-)
I have a $1000 to spend since I won it using CTE a week ago.
I'd bet more but I am still washing dishes from my 10k loss two years ago. :-(

Is that a joke?
Partly, but mostly for making aiming easier and repeatable.

You are just incredible! Truly a genius! Let's call up Shannon Murphy and let him know we got a guy here in the states that could have shown him what to do. I mean after all, poor Shannon never even used a good kicking system before. He probably got to pro just on lucky rolls and straight in shots.
Would you want to set up that shot and bet on the outcome? I bet that on a snooker table I will kick out of that position and hit one of the two reds. The kick was far more possible than the masse' from that position.

I think you mean "Shaun Murphy". Anyway he couldn't follow the path JB showed for several reasons. Reason number one is that he was frozen to the yellow in a way that I believe blocked off the rail impact point needed. Number two, it's hard to widen the angle on these rails.Number three he would have left some kind of shot on the top option, which IMO was the only nearly possible one. The bottom option might have worked as a 3 railer, but again I think that ball on the rail was in the way.

That was my thought or else he surely would have tried the kick. There is another way to kick masse' that may have been an option. If he was totally cut off from the rail though the the masse' he tried had no chance either.
