Why? He does this fairly often. Breaks them hard as heck and cb goes up and down. What are the benefits of this type of break? Not colliding with object balls? The scratch risk is big, and i've seen him scratch twice in one match this way

He has done it his entire career and he is no slouch. He likes his odds. Scratches happen using other methods as well. Still im not sure i like it. Mosconi use to just break out a couple/few balls at a time. That seems risky as well but he pulled it off time after time. Whatever you prefer and keeps you in the right frame of mind (confidence) is best i guess.

For those side of the pack break shots, I seem to recall Ray Martin stressed to me during a lesson that if the cue ball is headed in to either of the top 2 balls in the pack, you needed to apply some draw to extract the cue ball from the pack, but if it's headed in to the bottom 2 balls, you're better off using follow. The problem for me with draw option has always been controlling that draw. Even when I'm trying to just draw it enough to get the cue ball back to the middle of the table, I either fail to draw it enough and leave it stuck to the pack, or I draw it too much and end up way down near the end rail with a long, tough shot.Why?

Can somebody post a vid or diagram (or description) of this break? Is it the opening break or a mid-game break?

Without having to watch the entire matches, at what minute/second do the draw breaks occur in each tape? - thankssuccessful version: https://youtu.be/W7OR9e2vo0M
scratch version: https://youtu.be/Koju7qfzdpE
there are probably better examples
