    Twilight Zone...a game of pool

    In one of the versions Fats missed a shot on purpose and it wet in the wrong hole. Maybe a 3 rail bank. Do you remember the shot? When I saw it 50 or 60 years ago I thought it was great. Then later on I saw it again and thought it was easy.

    Yapp’s Controversial Tournament-Winning Shot in the 8-Ball World Championship … Was it a Foul?

    I think the rule should be stated either always yes or always no. The contestant should not be allowed to call a foul on himself. He shoud be able appeal the decision though. It just gives the opponent another way to shark the game. If a contestant can make the decision...do away with referees.

    2 rail banking?

    Set up some donut holes on your table for a 2 rail bank to a corner pocket. One for the cue ball and one for the object ball. You may have to adjust one of the donut holes so it aligns the shot straight to the 2 rail shot to the corner with a stun shot. Now vary either speed, draw, follow...

    Very unique pool cue with an 8 Point (Staircase Point) design.

    No offense... but clearer photos would help for this intricate design.

    Double Hit or Not? You Make the Call.

    I would not have called a foul in real time. After seeing the slo mo I would not have called a foul either because the video is in 2 dimension not 3 D. The cue tip looks to go forward of the cue ball but if it was shot with left English it was a bad hit only in your mind's eye. Not a foul.

    Is it Possible to CUT AN OBJECT BALL MORE THAN 90°?

    He was shooting from the head spot with the cue ball one balls width to the side of the spot. Do you mean you could cut that shot in either side pocket? The frame at 6:18?

    Is it Possible to CUT AN OBJECT BALL MORE THAN 90°?

    What else? The most important. Which side? One side would be much harder.
