    I'm so confused.

    I had two billiard tables in my room way back when...lots of straight pool and 3 cushion players... It was a general agreement that a run of 10 in 3-rail billiards was 'equivalent' to a run of 100 in straight pool. Anyone here ever run 10??? Mike

    How to handle this shot??

    I like Black-Balled first option...somewhat...I would take the shot...I don't know what 'other rail' you're thinking about...seems the cue ball stays right about there... I would play the 8-ball cross-corner...it looks just about dead on...especially with the sticky rails...stop the cue ball...
