How I played it
Thanks for the replies, guys. There are a couple of options I never would have thought of, and I'll mess around with them some. Always nice to have some extra tools in your arsenal.
I ended up playing Russ's first shot, banking the 7 two rails to the middle of the end rail, and taking whitey 3 rails to the opposite end rail. I hit it a little bad and made the cross bank, putting the CB about 2 inches from the end rail, leaving a long shot on the 8 into a tough pocket. I managed to get out from there, fortunately.
Thanks again to all who replied!
