in the comments if you look down a bit there is a super slow of it still hard to see

but after the first hit on the whtie, i think it has to get the second rail there
so i think its 3

I looked at it frame-by-frame expanded and it looks like it may have been anywhere from two to four cushions. The video is neither clear enough nor at a high enough frame rate to really be sure. The cue ball could have gotten four because of the small amount of masse that the left side spin would have gotten on the ball.

I have set up the shot in Virtual Pool (and carom) and it is possible to get three cushions with the shot. I haven't gotten four yet.

I would hate to be the referee for this shot.
