End pattern

That is not my choice
It was a great out but not my shot selection, I play what John was looking at first - I think. I would have chose the 11 (or what ever the stripe ball is closest to the white) in the corner and follow up to the long rail in a high % chance of bumping the 9 more towards the center of the table. The eleven ball is just too attractive for a beautiful key ball on the nine (the eventual break ball.) I think I can bump the nine a little 85 % of the time Dennis, John's way involves more cue ball movement towards the end and my choice is shoot stop if I were to bump the 9 off the first shot. Iff all else fails there is of course the much less desired break shot off the 9 2 rails, but I bump the 9 ball here, I guess John and I just have different style, I am sure that does not upset him too much.
I cannot tell from the moniter but it looks to me like the breakshot on the five for John ends up being maybe a little too high, but I wish there was some line that could be drawn for the viewers at home to be able to see the line better.

I think the balls on the table are the 11, 5,10 and 9.
In your sequence you take the 11, I think it is, go to the long rail and out and bump the 9 somewhere towards the middle. Then the 5 and shoot the 10 up in the top or in the side and get above the nine shooting it into the side with the cue ball to go directly into the rack? Unless I'm understanding you wrong.
I can't really see the rack when looking at the video but the 5 ends up pretty good. Here's a picture.
I think when John first looked at this video, he did not remember what he had done and chose another pattern. I think he said before that sometimes when you are playing you are in such stroke you just know you can execute. So maybe the sequence was not the best percentage, especially for hackers like me, but it sure looked cool.:grin:

There is still time to bump the five
If we play to bump the nine on the first shot and mis say on the bottom side, there is still time to take a shot at bumping the five with the white going two rails while potting the 9 ball. This is last case scenario for me but if u have a bit of billiard knowledge going two rails at a soft speed it's still feasable to try and bump the five while potting the nine in the side. It does look like however that the breakshot on the five that John gets is very decent indeed. I just play a little more conservative even when practicing, but you can't argue with success.

i guess john was pretty confident he could bump the 5ball.
going two rails on the 9 to bump the 5 is very doable because i've unintentionally bumped my break ball in this fashion.
is the 14 too close to the rail for a break-ball? if not you can use it with three simple stops using the 9 for the key.

No Thanks Porky
I will pass on that sausage -u lost me a long time ago and an apolagy from your end is in order I think, it's funny how some people allways want to be on the side that is winning. On a different subject - remember folks watch out for bad pork, it will give the worst case of food poisoning ever. I wonder if this guy sausage has a split personality, maybe he realizes just how much of a pig he really has been. "Have you seen the little piggies in their starched white shirts? You will find the little piggies stirring up the dirt."

no danny, i was just trying to smooth things over because life is short and you started posting without hostility.. for a while i thought that you had taken my advice and become more circumspect.
i'd be willing to apologize for disrespecting you IF you apologize to john for disrespecting him and turning his thread into a disaster forcing the moderator to intervene. then we'll be one big happy pool-playing family again...

No thanks sausage
I have allready apolagized to John, even though he will never apolagize to me and should. I know he has many friends and I have very few but I choose my friends very carefully as well as my aquintences and yall are neither. U and John both owe me an apolagy, I want nothing to do with u or John, I will not be contributing to any more threads that pertain to either of yall. There will allways be a few rotten eggs on any forum, it's people like u who are the problem. I think you and John should start a golfin' team or maybe form some sort of snooty nit biker gang - so please spin your wheels somewhere else and quit complimenting me as it could be bad luck for me. I don't know but maybe it would help you to become a vegan, again there is nothing worse than bad pork to make people sick.

Not to hijack this thread, but maybe at this point it needs highjacking.
Danny, love your avatar - Damone's 5 point plan. My favorite: "Act like wherever you are, that's the place to be." The greatest teenager movie of all time - one with a real heart for teenagers - and one of the funniest movies of any kind.
Fast Times At Ridgemont High, for those who don't know.

i tried reaching out and forgiving / forgetting but that was a mistake that i will not repeat.
Be a good example by blocking the spread of bad karma
sausage:
It's amazing how things come full circle in life, how behaviors (positive or negative) propagate through one person to the next, eh?
The very lack of forgiving/forgetting that Danny is perpetrating on you, you are allowing to be relayed through you to Sascha (in two other threads).
Unfortunately, you are not the high-road saint that you are trying to say you are. Until you take steps to block the propagation of this silly not-forgiving/not-forgetting behavior, your "but I tried to forgive and forget" words have no meaning.
Danny is who he is, popping off incredulously (not engaging brain to fingers before engaging fingers to keyboard), then apologizing afterwards. Obviously, I'm not saying he's a bad person; he only makes bad [posting] decisions. Noone can control that except Danny himself, and he has to make the decision if he wants to control it. (Personally, I "feel" that Danny has a heart of gold; he just lets his emotions get the best of him.)
The only thing *you* can control is yourself. You bring this animosity upon yourself. Put an end to the bad karma propagation. Start with Sascha. You'll be a better person for it, and others will notice -- including those that may not forgiven/forgotten for you, and they'll take note.
Food for thought. Think about it.

Your not getting it Sausage
They way a person asks for an apolagy is not by saying "your on the road to being a World Champion" and then complimenting them on one of their victories. You just simply say - you no what I did a rotten cold hearted deed that was aimed at you and I would ask that you forgive me for it. Even though I made the mistake and posted ill words towards John I was voicing my opinion about the way in which he behaived - cheating and sharking tactics are for the weak, it gave u no right to delve up my past and spread some of your stinky pork tattle tale, look how smart I am imbread attitude on this forum about another member. I will forgive you when u quit giving me compliments and simply apolagize for your rudeness. If this confuses you Sausage (and it might) all I can say is your to be pityd. John Schmidt has too much pride to apolagize - if I were him and the Cameras could catch everything he tried to do at our Action Challenge matches both 1 and 2, I would have been embarrased that I had to sink to that level to try and win.
He felt he had justification to act in that manner, and if you would have seen his act live then you would understand my dissapointment with John and his nitty moves, or maybe your the kind that if u had $ riding on it - you would have been happy to see him win no matter how bad he acted up. John acted like he was my friend and then a couple of days before our match started being really a jerk to me on the phone, namecalling and rearranging our agreement on the $, he continued with the verbal abuse when he saw the game was going to be difficult to win. If he and I were to each be filmed for ten days - both of us receiving ten break shots I believe he would lose and I would still be willing to have a go with him in this type of format, that way I don't have to hear him cry and argue about jump cues (sharking etc.) He says he was just trying to make me angry, but what he was really doing was crying like a scared bitter pool player.

You really are a nutjob. Your axe to grind with Schmidt is OLD. Get over it and get a life.
Ok sausage I will work on accepting the apolagy. The only reason I have to work on it 'cuz' I had to be the one whom informed you that an apolagy was in order. If this does not concern u a little than it should, posting up someone past criminal history from over 15 yrs. ago should in my opinion ban you from this forum for at least 1 year. You seem like you may have some intelligence when the bi -polarism wears off, so I say nothing more for now than I will work on accepting your apolagy Sausage.
