If a gun was put to your head to choose one player to pocket a difficult shot for you, who would you choose?

I would choose the person who was, for many years called the best pool player of all-time. His name is Willie Mosconi. Also, I still like a person's comment that was, instead of a gun being put to anyone's head, how about something involving millions of dollars. For example, if I had a million dollars bet, and needed on player to shoot a long tough shot for me, who would I choose?
Earl already did it and won a million executing a very hard combo.

I'd have to go with Spot Shot Kenny.
As long as it's a spot shot. Kenny really doesn't/didn't play very good. Don't know if he is still alive. He played in my room everyday. All he did was spot shots. I never charged hit table time.

He beat me for $50 the first time I met him. He wanted to bet me he could make 25 of 50. He knows I would try to negotiate. I think we ended up on like 37 of 50. Needless to say, he had a lock. Unless it was 49 of 50 I had no chance.

Of course I got my money back many times over over the years with him because it seems so unimaginable what he could do. Even Jose Parica lost money to him. Parica tried to bet him shot for shot, of course I didn't last long.
 
This question has been asked alot, basically if the player makes the ball he'll spare your life, if he misses you're gone.

In this thread you can choose any player from any ERA. The shot is long tough shot.

One thing, just write ONE name, you can't choose multiple, or go "if not this then i'll choose that player instead" JUST ONE NAME, ONE PLAYER.

Also no wall of text explanation, just one name and be done with it, maybe one sentence is fine about the player.
I'm picking the guy with the gun. He's going to have to either hand it (gun) to me, or put it down to shoot the shot. Whatever happens next, happens.
😁
In all seriousness...If it's a bank shot, Eddie Taylor. If it's straight, I'd take Earl in his prime, or Shaw.

you guys all pick the best shots. how well will they do knowing a life is on their shot.

you want a high stakes gambler who doesnt ever choke. may miss but doesnt choke.

guys like louie, cornbread, tadd, lassiter, parica, toby, weldon rogers,etc.
