I think I might be 3c dumb, but is that the right way to play that shot?
I often get stumped by positions similar to that and your choice seems like a relatively easy solution (by creativity, not by execution standards)
I'm just a duffer, but it looked pretty standard to me, given the layout. Have to be a little careful not to bank the red into the big ball.
i am ofter flummoxed by that position and usually try to thin the farther ball and go up/ down the table (maybe/ likely also hitting side rail)...but I often get kissed out or become the victim of not-understood side-spin that comes from I don't know where.
