Always enjoy setting these up, but positional play is the height of three cushion skill, lovely to see and near impossible to do reliably. My take away from trying these shots is that they are generally played slow onto the final ball, so these days I cant judge where the object ball will land but I can think to myself - slow it down, land on the final ball and that is already a big improvement for me.

I took just the first two positions from the youtube and made a practice page. Personally I find it brutally difficult to hold the red in a good position - my instinct is always to over hit. The simulator doesnt quite match the real table in the video but its close enough to get a feel for the shot before you go to the club and face reality.

Billiard need to be play on table! Not on computer game. Reason why … some table are heated..some not. Computer doesn’t allow for these conditions. Simply put it’s the condition of the table (rails / cloth ) and the balls .. whether shot long , short, slow, or fast. Beside your stroke or others issue. Which a computer cannot address!
