Anybody leaves me these 2 shots....I'm betting my house. You can't leave a wide open shot, rail or not.

Play safe with an obstructing ball, or put the object ball to the end rail so there isn't a sellout. Add in the cueball near the rail to make it more difficult.

On both shots I would have banked the 8 in such a way as to leave the CB and the 8 close to the center of the rail on both ends of the table.

I'm near completion of my series, "Game Winning 8-Ball Safety Shots" in Pool & Billiard mag.

The info coming from this site is a little rough.

Who exactly is your target audience and what separates your material from someone like robert byrne or dr. Dave?.

The info you post seems very poor. Sorry just confused, fogive my ignorance.

Your book should be named Beat me.

Let a player back to the table?
You have never been around a player.
That is how a player gets paid.
Odds are against you.
One handed. Left handed. Between the legs. Behind the back. Broom handle.
Pick one. Someone out there can make you eat it like that for the right wager.
I should write a book.
Slow cloth killed pool.
It should be renamed put put.
Almost broke the back out of the pockets yesterday on a Diamond with fast cloth yesterday.
If it had slow cloth on it it would have been a struggle.
Snooker same way.
Back to my book.
I will name it," Get a job"!
Good luck with your fine book of insights.
Nick :)

The book is NOT for you bigger players!!!!!!!

First of all - you fellas are a VERY small target audience - AND, none of you buy books or spend money on getting better!!!

(Why should you? Don't you folks already know it all?)

So - here's what you "commentators" should do with my posts:

If the content doesn't modify your way of thinking - ignore it - it's not for you anyway.

BUT, if you decide to provide moral support for someone new who has demonstrated a passion for the sport - pass it on. It will save you time covering the concepts.

+++++++++++++
(sigh - save me from "limited world-view" players.)

Don't think this is really new news. Quite typical move when playing one pocker - leaving your opponent frozen to the head rail. I've personally bursted a many of folks that tried that on me, but I've also sold the farm from there too a couple of times lol.
